Answer:

29.4 N/m

0.1  

Explanation:

a) From the restoring Force we know that :  

F_r = —k*x  

the gravitational force :  

F_g=mg  

Where:

F_r is the restoring force .

F_g is the gravitational force

g is the acceleration of gravity

k is the constant force  

xi , x2 are the displacement made by the two masses.

Givens:

<em>m1 = 1.29 kg</em>

<em>m2 = 0.3 kg  </em>

<em>x1   = -0.75 m  </em>

<em>x2 = -0.2 m </em>

<em>g   = 9.8 m/s^2  </em>

Plugging known information to get :

F_r =F_g

-k*x1 + k*x2=m1*g-m2*g

k=29.4 N/m

b) To get the unloaded length 1:  

l=x1-(F_1/k)

Givens:

m1 = 1.95kg , x1 = —0.75m  

Plugging known infromation to get :

l= x1 — (F_1/k)  

= 0.1

Answer:

The minimum running time is 319.47 s.

Explanation:

First we find the distance covered and time taken by the train to reach its maximum speed:

We have:

Initial Speed = Vi = 0 m/s    (Since, train is initially at rest)

Final Speed = Vf = 29.17 m/s

Acceleration = a = 0.25 m/s²

Distance Covered to reach maximum speed = s₁

Time taken to reach maximum speed = t₁

Using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at₁

t₁ = (Vf - Vi)/a

t₁ = (29.17 m/s - 0 m/s)/(0.25 m/s²)

t₁ = 116.68 s

Using 2nd equation of motion:

s₁ = (Vi)(t₁) + (0.5)(a)(t₁)²

s₁ = (0 m/s)(116.68 s) + (0.5)(0.25 m/s²)(116.68 s)²

s₁ = 1701.78 m = 1.7 km

Now, we shall calculate the end time and distance covered by train, when it comes to rest on next station.

We have:

Final Speed = Vf = 0 m/s    (Since, train is finally stops)

Initial Speed = Vi = 29.17 m/s     (The train must maintain max. speed for min time)

Deceleration = a = - 0.7 m/s²

Distance Covered to stop = s₂

Time taken to stop = t₂

Using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at₂

t₂ = (Vf - Vi)/a

t₂ = (0 m/s - 29.17 m/s)/(- 0.7 m/s²)

t₂ = 41.67 s

Using 2nd equation of motion:

s₂ = (Vi)(t₂) + (0.5)(a)(t₂)²

s₂ = (29.17 m/s)(41.67 s) + (0.5)(- 0.7 m/s²)(41.67 s)²

s₂ = 607.78 m = 0.6 km

Since, we know that the rest of 7 km, the train must maintain the maximum speed to get to the next station in minimum time.

The remaining distance is:

s₃ = 7 km - s₂ - s₁

s₃ = 7 km - 0.6 km - 1.7 km

s₃ = 4.7 km

Now, for uniform speed we use the relation:

s₃ = vt₃

t₃ = s₃/v

t₃ = (4700 m)/(29.17 m/s)

t₃ = 161.12 s

So, the minimum running time will be:

t = t₁ + t₂ + t₃

t = 116.68 s + 41.67 s + 161.12 s

<u>t = 319.47 s</u>

A spring with a spring constant of 0.70 N/m is stretched 1.5 m. What was the force?
Talja [164]

Answer:

1.05 N

Explanation:

K = 0.7 N/m

e = 1.5 m

F = ?

from Hooke's law of elasticity

F = Ke

= 0.7×1.5

= 1.05 N

A long cylindrical rod of diameter 200 mm with thermal conductivity of 0.5 W/m⋅K experiences uniform volumetric heat generation
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

a, 71.8° C, 51° C

b, 191.8° C

Explanation:

Given that

D(i) = 200 mm

D(o) = 400 mm

q' = 24000 W/m³

k(r) = 0.5 W/m.K

k(s) = 4 W/m.K

k(h) = 25 W/m².K

The expression for heat generation is given by

q = πr²Lq'

q = π . 0.1² . L . 24000

q = 754L W/m

Thermal conduction resistance, R(cond) = 0.0276/L

Thermal conduction resistance, R(conv) = 0.0318/L

Using energy balance equation,

Energy going in = Energy coming out

Which is = q, which is 754L

From the attachment, we deduce that the temperature between the rod and the sleeve is 71.8° C

At the same time, we find out that the temperature on the outer surface is 51° C

Also, from the second attachment, the temperature at the center of the rod was calculated to be, 191.8° C
