Four race cars are traveling on a 2.5-mile tri-oval track. The four cars are traveling at constant speeds of 195 mi/h, 190 mi/h,

185 mi/h, and 180 mi/h, respectively. Assume that you are an observer standing at a point on the track for a period of 30 minutes and are recording the instantaneous speed of each vehicle as it crosses your point.
What are the time-mean speed and space-mean speed for these vehicles for this time period?

Answer:

Explanation:

1) The number of times, the car with the speed of  195 mph will cross the given point is equal to 30 minutes divided by the time taken by car to cross the 2.5 miles.

0 .5*195/2.5 = 39

Likewise, the car with the speed of 190 mph crosses the point 38 times; the car with the speed of 185 mph crosses the point 37 times

and car with the speed of 180 mph crosses it 36 times

here, the time-mean speed, vt is given below,

vt = (39*195 +38*190+37*185+36*180)/(39+38+37+38)

= 186.433 mph

and space mean speed is given by,

= (39+38+37+36)/(39/195+38/190+37/1850+36/180)

1) The number of times, the car with the speed of  195 mph will cross the given point is equal to 30 minutes divided by the time taken by car to cross the 2.5 miles.

0 .5*195/2.5 = 39

Likewise, the car with the speed of 190 mph crosses the point 38 times; the car with the speed of 185 mph crosses the point 37 times

and car with the speed of 180 mph crosses it 36 times

here, the time-mean speed, vt is given below,

vt = (39*195 +38*190+37*185+36*180)/(39+38+37+38)

= 186.433 mph

and space mean speed is given by,

= (39+38+37+36)/(39/195+38/190+37/1850+36/180)

=187.5 mph

2)  There would be only four number of observations when the aerial photo is given, therefore time mean speed, vt in that condition will be calculated as

Vt = 195+190+185+180/4

  = 187.5

Vs= 4/(1/195+1/190+1/185+1/180)

= 188.36 mph

2)  There would be only four number of observations when the aerial photo is given, therefore time mean speed, vt, in that condition will be calculated as

Vt = 195+190+185+180/4

  = 187.5

Vs= 4/(1/195+1/190+1/185+1/180)

= 188.36 mph

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

6.99 x 10⁻³ m³ / s

Explanation:

Th e pressure difference at the two ends of the delivery pipe due to atmospheric pressure and water column will cause flow of water.

h = difference in the height of water column at two ends of delivery pipe

6 - 1 =  5 m

Velocity of flow of water

v = √2gh

= √ (2 x 9.8 x 5)

=  9.9 m /s

Volume of water flowing per unit time

velocity x cross sectional area

= 9.9 x 3.14 x .015²

= 6.99 x 10⁻³ m³ / s

What did August Comte contribute to sociology including positivism
Travka [436]

Answer:

Auguste Comte was the first to develop the concept of "sociology." He defined sociology as a positive science. Positivism is the search for "invariant laws of the natural and social world." Comte identified three basic methods for discovering these invariant laws, observation, experimentation, and comparison.

List and describe three classifications of burns to the body.
DiKsa [7]

AnswerWhat Are the Classifications of Burns? Burns are classified as first-, second-, or third-degree, depending on how deep and severe they penetrate the skin's surface. First-degree burns affect only the epidermis, or outer layer of skin. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and with no blisters.

All of these are true about GMA (MIG) welding EXCEPT that:
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

the welding gun liner regulates the shielding gas.

Explanation:

The purpose of the welding gun liner is to properly position the welding wire from the wire feeder till it gets to the nozzle or contact tip of the gun. <em>Regulation of the shielding gas depends on factors such as the speed, current, and type of gas being used. </em>In gas metal arc welding, an electric arc is used to generate heat which melts both the electrode and the workpiece or base metal.

The electric arc produced is shielded from contamination by the shielding gas. The heat generated by the short electric arc is low.
