Mass=kg
Acceleration=m/s^2

Using Newtons second law

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Mass\times Acceleration$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=kgm/s^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Newton(N)$

Determine the maximum shearing stress in a solid shaft of 1.5-in. diameter as it transmits 75 hp at a speed of 1800 rpm. (Round

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

$\tau=3.96\ ksi$

Explanation:

Given that

d= 1.5 in ( 1 in = 0.0254 m)

d= 0.0381 m

P= 75 hp ( 1 hp = 745.7 W)

P= 55927.5 W

N= 1800 rpm

We know that power P is given as

$P=\dfrac{2\pi N\ T}{60}$

T=Torque

N=Speed

$55927.5=\dfrac{2\times \pi \times 1800\ T}{60}$

T=296.85 N.m

The maximum shear stress is given as

$\tau=\dfrac{16 T}{\pi d^3}$

$\tau=\dfrac{16\times 296.85}{\pi \times 0.0381^3}$

$\tau=27.35\ MPa$

We know that 1 MPa =0.145 ksi

$\tau=3.96\ ksi$

4. What is the period of the microwaves in the above question?

Sidana [21]

Answer:

The period of a wave is the time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle. Period, being a time, is measured in units of time such as seconds, hours, days or years. The period of orbit for the Earth around the Sun is approximately 365 days; it takes 365 days for the Earth to complete a cycle.

A 2 kg ball is dropped above the surface of Planet X. If the gravitational field strength at the surface of Planet X is 5 N/kg,

Trava [24]

Given data:

* The mass of the ball is 2 kg.

* The gravitational field strength at the surface of planet X is 5 N/kg.

Solution:

The weight of the ball on the planet X is,

$W=ma$

where m is the mass of ball, a is the gravitational field strength,

Substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} W=2\times5 \\ W=10\text{ N} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the weight of the ball on the surface of planet X is 10 N.
