A vertical piston–cylinder device contains a gas at a pressure of 100 kPa. The piston has a mass of 5 kg and a diameter of 12 cm

. Pressure of the gas is to be increased by placing some weights on the piston. Determine the local atmospheric pressure and the mass of the weights that will double the pressure of the gas inside the cylinder.

Answer:

A. 95.6 kPa.

B. 115.36 kg.

Explanation:

A.

P1 = Patm + F1/A

Therefore,

Patm = P1 - (m*g)/(D^2 * π/4)

= 100 - (5 * 9.81)/(0.12^2 * π/4) x 10^-3 kPa

= 100 - 4.336

= 95.6 kPa.

B.

Δm = m2 - m1

= (D^2 * π/(4 * g)) * (P2 - Patm) - m1

= (0.12^2 * π/(4 * 9.81)) * (2*100 - 95.6) x 10^3 - 5

= 115.36 kg.

A more realistic car would cause the wheels to spin in a manner that would result in the ground pushing it forward with a consta
-Dominant- [34]

The car would go from  zero to 58.0 mph in 2.6 sec.

Since the force on the car is constant, therefore the acceleration of the car would also be constant.

Now for constant acceleration we can use the equation of motion

Using first equation of motion to calculate the acceleration of the car

v=u+at

29=0+a×1.30       ...... Eq. (1)

Again using the first equation of motion

58=0+a*t             ....... Eq. (2)

Dividing eq. (2) with equation 1

t=2×1.3

t=2.6 sec

In Paul Hewitt's book, he poses this question: "If the forces that act on a bullet and the recoiling gun from which it is fired
Sauron [17]
They have different accelerations because of their masses. According to Newton's Second Law, an objects acceleration is inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore the object with the larger mass, in this case the gun, will have a smaller acceleration. In the same way, the less massive object, being the bullet, will have a higher acceleration.

Hope this helps :)

If vx=9.80 units and vy=-6.40 units, determine the magnitude and direction of v
dexar [7]
The resultant vector can be determined by the component vectors. The component vectors are vector lying along the x and y-axes. The equation for the resultant vector, v is:

v = √(vx² + vy²)
v = √[(9.80)² + (-6.40)²]
v = √137 or 11.7 units

7. A stream of water strikes a stationary turbine blade horizontally, as the drawing illustrates. The oncoming water stream has
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade is 960 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of water per second that strikes the blade is, \dfrac{m}{t}=30\ kg/s

Initial speed of the oncoming stream, u = 16 m/s

Final speed of the outgoing water stream, v = -16 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade. It can be calculated using second law of motion as :

F=\dfrac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

F=30\ kg/s\times (-16-16)\ m/s

F = -960 N

So, the magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade is 960 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
