If the absolute pressure of a gas is 550.280 kPa, its gage pressure is A. 101.325 kPa. B. 651.605 kPa. C. 448.955 kPa. D. 277.28
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Absolute  pressure is sum of gauge pressure and atmospheric pressure.

That is

               P_{abs}=P_{gauge}+P_{atm}

We have

          P_{abs}=550.280 kPa\\\\P_{atm}=1atm=101325Pa=101.325kPa

Substituting

         P_{abs}=P_{gauge}+P_{atm}\\\\550.280=P_{gauge}+101.325\\\\P_{gauge}=448.955kPa

Option C is the correct answer.

A brick of mass 5 kg is released from rest at a height of 3 m. How fast is it going when it hits the ground? Acceleration due to
sineoko [7]

Taking into account the definition of kinetic, potencial and mechanical energy, when the brick hits the ground, it has a speed of 7,668 m/s.

<h3>Kinetic energy</h3>

Kinetic energy is a form of energy. It is defined as the energy associated with bodies that are in motion and this energy depends on the mass and speed of the body.

Kinetic energy is defined as the amount of work necessary to accelerate a body of a given mass and at rest, until it reaches a given speed. Once this point is reached, the amount of accumulated kinetic energy will remain the same unless there is a change in speed or the body returns to its state of rest by applying a force.

The kinetic energy is represented by the following expression:

Ec= ½ mv²

Where:

  • Ec is the kinetic energy, which is measured in Joules (J).
  • m is the mass measured in kilograms (kg).
  • v is the speed measured in meters over seconds (m/s).

<h3>Potential energy</h3>

On the other hand, potential energy is the energy that measures the ability of a system to perform work based on its position. In other words, this is the energy that a body has at a certain height above the ground.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy associated with the gravitational force. This will depend on the relative height of an object to some reference point, the mass, and the force of gravity.

So for an object with mass m, at height h, the expression applied to the gravitational energy of the object is:

Ep= m×g×h

Where:

  • Ep is the potential energy in joules (J).
  • m is the mass in kilograms (kg).
  • h is the height in meters (m).
  • g is the acceleration of fall in m/s².
<h3>Mechanical energy</h3>

Finally, mechanical energy is that which a body or a system obtains as a result of the speed of its movement or its specific position, and which is capable of producing mechanical work. Then:

Potential energy + kinetic energy = total mechanical energy

<h3>Principle of conservation of mechanical energy </h3>

The principle of conservation of mechanical energy indicates that the mechanical energy of a body remains constant when all the forces acting on it are conservative (a force is conservative when the work it does on a body depends only on the initial and final points and not the path taken to get from one to the other.)

Therefore, if the potential energy decreases, the kinetic energy will increase. In the same way, if the kinetics decreases, the potential energy will increase.

<h3>This case</h3>

A brick of mass 5 kg is released from rest at a height of 3 m. Then, at this height, the brick of mass has no speed, so the kinetic energy has a value of zero because it depends on the speed or moving bodies. But the potential energy is calculated as:

Ep= 5 kg× 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }× 3 m

Solving:

<u><em>Ep= 147 J</em></u>

So, the mechanical energy is calculated as:

Potential energy + kinetic energy = total mechanical energy

147 J +  0 J= total mechanical energy

147 J= total mechanical energy

The principle of conservation of mechanical energy  can be applied in this case. Then, when the brick hits the ground, the mechanical energy is 147 J. In this case, considering that the height is 0 m, the potential energy is zero because this energy depends on the relative height of the object. But the object has speed, so it will have kinetic energy. Then:

Potential energy + kinetic energy = total mechanical energy

0 J +  kinetic energy= 147 J

kinetic energy= 147 J

Considering the definition of kinetic energy:

½  5 kg×v²= 147 J

v=\sqrt{\frac{2x147 J}{5 kg} }

v=7.668 m/s

Finally, when the brick hits the ground, it has a speed of 7,668 m/s.

Part A Determine the magnitude of the x component of F using scalar notation. Fx F x = nothing lb Request Answer Part B Determin
maksim [4K]

As we know that force F makes an angle of 60 degree with X axis

so the X component is given as

cos60 = \frac{F_x}{F}

now we have

F_x = F cos60

F_x = 0.50 F

Similarly we know that force F makes an angle of 45 degree with Y axis

so the X component is given as

cos45 = \frac{F_y}{F}

now we have

F_y = F cos45

F_y = 0.707 F

Now for the component along z axis we know that

F_x^2 + F_y^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

now plug in all components

(0.707 F)^2 + (0.50 F)^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

0.5 F^2 + 0.25 F^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

F_z^2 = F^2(1 - 0.75)

F_z^2 = 0.25 F^2

F_z = 0.5 F
