Complete question:

The classic Goodyear blimp is essentially a helium balloon— a big one, containing 5700 m³ of helium. If the envelope and gondola have a total mass of 4300 kg, what is the maximum cargo load when the blimp flies at a sea-level location? Assume an air temperature of 20°C.

Answer:

52.4 kN

Explanation:

The helium at 20°C has a density of 0.183 kg/m³, and the cargo load is the weight of the system, which consists of the envelope, the gondola, and the helium.

The helium mass is the volume multiplied by the density, thus:

mHe = 5700 * 0.183 = 1043.1 kg

The total mass is then 5343.1 kg. The weight is the mass multiplied by the gravity acceleration (9.8 m/s²), so:

W = 5343.1*9.8

W = 53362.38 N

W = 52.4 kN

QUESTION: The question is incomplete. See the complete question below and the answer.

The classic Goodyear blimp is essentially a helium balloon— a big one, containing 5700 m3 of helium. If the envelope and gondola have a total mass of 4300 kg, what is the maximum cargo load when the blimp flies at a sea-level location? Assume an air temperature of 20°C.

Answer:

Mass of the cargo load  = 1548.2kg

Explanation:

Calculating the weight of helium gas, we have

W = mg

   = (pv)g

   =(0.178 * 5700)g

   =(1014.6)g

Weight of envelope and gondola;

W = (4300kg)g

Weight of cargo load = mg (unknown)

The upthrust force on the balloon is calculated as;

F =pvg

  = (1.204 *5700)g

  =(6862.8)g

But;

Weight of helium gas + weight of envelope and gondola + weight of cargo = upthrust force on the balloon.

Substituting, we have;

(1.0146)g +  (4300kg)g + mg = (6862.8)g

mg =  (6862.8)g - (1014.6)g - (4300kg)g

 mg    = (1548.2kg)g

m =  (1548.2kg)g/g

m = 1548.2kg

You are on vacation in San Francisco and decide to take a cable car to see the city. A 5800-kgkg cable car goes 260 mm up a hill
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

4.325\times10^6J

Explanation:

Mass of the cable car, m = 5800 kg

It goes 260 m up a hill, along a slope of \theta=17^o

Therefore vertical elevation of the car = 260sin\theta=260sin17^o=76.0166m

Now, when you get into the cable car, it's velocity is zero, that is, initial kinetic energy is zero (since K.E. = \frac{1}{2} mv^2). Similarly as the car reaches the top, it halts and hence final kinetic energy is zero.

Therefore the only possible change in the cable car system is the change in it's gravitational potential energy.

Hence, total change in energy = mgh = 5800\times9.81\times76.0166J=4.325\times10^6J

where, g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height/vertical elevation

A steel ball bearing with a radius of 1.5 cm forms an image of an object that has been placed 1.1 cm away from the bearing’s sur
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

The image is virtual

The image is upright

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

A 0.20-kg object attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle (radius = 80 cm). at the top of the circle the spee
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Tension in the string at this position: 3.1 N.

Explanation:

Convert the radius of the circle to meters:

r = 80\;\text{cm} = 0.80\;\text{m}.

What's the net force on the object?

The object is in a circular motion. As a result,

\displaystyle \Sigma F = \frac{m\cdot v^{2}}{r},

where

  • \Sigma F is the net force on the object,
  • m is the mass of the object,
  • v is the velocity of the object, and
  • r is the radius of the circular motion.

For this object,

\displaystyle \Sigma F = \frac{0.20\times {4.5}^{2}}{0.80} = 5.0625\;\text{N}.

The output unit of net force should be standard if the unit for mass, velocity, and radius are all standard. The net force shall always point towards the center. In this case the net force points downwards.

What are the forces on this object?

There are two forces on the object at this moment:

  • Weight, W, which points downwards. W = m\cdot g = 0.20\times 9.81 = 1.962\;\text{N}.
  • Tension, T, which also points downwards. The size of the tension force needs to be found.

What's the size of the tension force?

Gravity and tension points in the same direction. The size of their resultant force is the sum of the two forces. In other words,

\Sigma F = T + W.

T = \Sigma F - W = 5.0625 - 1.962 = 3.1.

All three values in this question are given with two sig. fig. Round the value of T to the same number of significant figures.
