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

Initially when 1000.00 mL of water at 10oC are poured into a glass cylinder, the height of the water column is 1000.00 mm. The w
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

\mathbf{h_2 =1021.9 \  mm}

Explanation:

Given that :

The initial volume of water V_1 = 1000.00 mL = 1000000 mm³

The initial temperature of the water  T_1 = 10° C

The height of the water column h = 1000.00 mm

The final temperature of the water T_2 = 70° C

The coefficient of thermal expansion for the glass is  ∝ = 3.8*10^{-6 } mm/mm  \ per ^oC

The objective is to determine the the depth of the water column

In order to do that we will need to determine the volume of the water.

We obtain the data for physical properties of water at standard sea level atmospheric from pressure tables; So:

At temperature T_1 = 10 ^ 0C  the density of the water is \rho = 999.7 \ kg/m^3

At temperature T_2 = 70^0 C  the density of the water is \rho = 977.8 \ kg/m^3

The mass of the water is  \rho V = \rho _1 V_1 = \rho _2 V_2

Thus; we can say \rho _1 V_1 = \rho _2 V_2;

⇒ 999.7 \ kg/m^3*1000 \ mL = 977.8 \ kg/m^3 *V_2

V_2 = \dfrac{999.7 \ kg/m^3*1000 \ mL}{977.8 \ kg/m^3 }

V_2 = 1022.40 \ mL

v_2 = 1022400 \ mm^3

Thus, the volume of the water after heating to a required temperature of  70^0C is 1022400 mm³

However; taking an integral look at this process; the volume of the water before heating can be deduced by the relation:

V_1 = A_1 *h_1

The area of the water before heating is:

A_1 = \dfrac{V_1}{h_1}

A_1 = \dfrac{1000000}{1000}

A_1 = 1000 \ mm^2

The area of the heated water is :

A_2 = A_1 (1  + \Delta t  \alpha )^2

A_2 = A_1 (1  + (T_2-T_1) \alpha )^2

A_2 = 1000 (1  + (70-10) 3.8*10^{-6} )^2

A_2 = 1000.5 \ mm^2

Finally, the depth of the heated hot water is:

h_2 = \dfrac{V_2}{A_2}

h_2 = \dfrac{1022400}{1000.5}

\mathbf{h_2 =1021.9 \  mm}

Hence the depth of the heated hot  water is \mathbf{h_2 =1021.9 \  mm}

What is the instantaneous center of zero velocity? List two approaches for determining the is the instantaneous center of zero v
Lera25 [3.4K]

Explanation:

Instantaneous center:

   It is the center about a body moves in planer motion.The velocity of Instantaneous center is zero and Instantaneous center can be lie out side or inside the body.About this center every particle of a body rotates.

From the diagram

Where these two lines will cut then it will the I-Center.Point A and B is moving perpendicular to the point I.

If we take three link link1,link2 and link3 then I center of these three link will be in one straight line It means that they will be co-linear.

I_{12},I_{23},I_{31} all\ are\ co-linear.
