Lidia plans an experimental investigation to see how the thickness of a lens affects the point where a beam of light is focused.

She plans to shine light through a lens and measure the distance to a screen that is placed where the beam focuses.What are the controls in Lidia’s investigation?

Answer:

The type of light and the material of lenz.

Explanation:

1) As the investigation is based on how the thickness of a lens effect the other variable. Thickness of the lenz is independent variable. So Lidia has to experiment with the different thicknesses in order to find the effect on dependent variable.

2) As the investigation is based to find the point where the beam of light is focused. It's a dependent variable and Lidia has no control over it. So the only thing she can do is to measure and observe how it respond to the changes in independent variable.

3) For conclusion, she has to make sure that the other variables are not effecting the output or results that is the beam point where the light is focused. So she must have to kept constant the type of light and material of lenz otherwise she won't be able to discriminate the effect of thickness of lenz from other causes.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

a) the values of the angle α is 45.5°

b) the required magnitude of the vertical force, F is 41 lb

Explanation:

Applying the free equilibrium equation along x-direction

from the diagram

we say

∑Fₓ = 0

Pcosα - 425cos30° = 0

525cosα - 368.06 = 0

cosα = 368.06/525

cosα = 0.701

α = cos⁻¹ (0.701)

α = 45.5°

Also Applying the force equation of motion along y-direction

∑Fₓ = ma

Psinα + F + 425sin30° - 600 = (600/32.2)(1.5)

525sin45.5° + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

374.46 + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

F - 13.04 = 27.95

F = 27.95 + 13.04

F = 40.99 ≈ 41 lb

Steam enters a counterflow heat exchanger operating at steady state at 0.07 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 2431.6 kJ/kg and exi
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Steam Mass rate, ms = 1.5 kg/min

= 1.5 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec

= 0.025 kg/s

Air Mass rate, ma = 100 kg/min

= 100 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec

= 1.67 kg/s

A.

Extracting the specific enthalpy and temperature values from property table of “Saturated water – Pressure table” which corresponds to temperature at 0.07 MPa.

xf, quality = 0.9.

Tsat = 89.9°C

hf = 376.57 kJ/kg

hfg = 2283.38 kJ/kg

Using the equation for specific enthalpy,

hi = hf + (hfg × xf)

= 376.57 + (2283.38 × 0.9)

= 2431.552 kJ/kg

The specific enthalpy of the outlet, h2 = hf

= 376.57 kJ/kg

B.

Rate of enthalpy (heat exchange), Q = mass rate, ms × change in specific enthalpy

= ms × (hi - h2)

= 0.025 × (2431.552 - 376.57)

= 0.025 × 2055.042

= 51.37455 kW

= 51.38 kW.

A satellite that weighs 4900 N on the launchpad travels around the earth's equator in a circular orbit with a period of 1.667 h.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

(a)F= 3.83 * 10^3 N

(b)Altitude=8.20 * 10^5 m

Explanation:

On the launchpad weight = gravitational force between earth and satellite.

W = GMm/R²

where R is the earth radius.

Re-arranging:

WR² / GM = m

m = 4900 * (6.3 * 10^6)² / (6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24) = 488 kg

The centripetal force (Fc) needed to keep the satellite moving in a circular orbit of radius (r) is:

Fc = mω²r

where ω is the angular velocity in radians/second. The satellite completes 1 revolution, which is 2π radians, in 1.667 hours.

ω = 2π / (1.667 * 60 * 60) = 1.05 * 10^-3 rad/s

When the satellite is in orbit at a distance (r) from the CENTRE of the earth, Fc is provided by the gravitational force  between the earth and the satellite:

Fc = GMm/r²

mω²r = GMm / r²

ω²r = GM / r²

r³ = GM/ω² = (6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24) / (1.05 * 10^-3)²  

r³ = 3.612 * 10^20

r = 7.12 * 10^6 m

(a) F = GMm/r²  

F=(6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24 * 488) / (7.12 * 10^6 )²

F= 3.83 * 10^3 N

(b) Altitude = r - R = (7.12 * 10^6) - (6.3 * 10^6) = 8.20 * 10^5 m
