A mass is oscillating horizontally on a spring. At the locations A, B, C, D, and E, photogates are used to measure the speed of

the mass as it moves by. The speed is used to calculate the kinetic energy ( K E ) and the location of the photogates is used to calculate the elastic potential energy ( P E elastic ) . Interpret the chart to determine the missing K E and P E elastic values. Assume all values are exact.

Answer:

The elastic potential energy at point B is $PE_{elastic} = 50J$

The kinetic energy at point D is $KE = 75J$

Explanation:

Looking at the given point we can observe that mechanically energy(i.e potential and kinetic energy ) is conserved and it value is $E_ {m} = 100J$

So at point B

$E_{m} = PE_{elastic} +KE$

$100 = PE_{elastic} + KE$

KE at point B is 50J

So $PE_{elastic} = 100 - 50 = 50J$

Now at point D

$E_{m} = PE_{elastic} +KE$

$PE_{elastic}$ at point D is 25J

So $KE = 100 - 25 = 75J$

A particle is in uniform circular motion. Assume a standard rtz coordinate system. If you deconstruct the net force acting on th

Kitty [74]

Answer:

a) One

Explanation:

In a uniform circular motion there must be a force acting to keep it in the circular track. This force can either be centripetal or a centrifugal force.

According to the Newton's first law of motion a particle continues to be in state of rest or in uniform motion until acted upon by an external force.

Here the term uniform motion need to be understood which refers to the uniform velocity of the particle in accordance to the vector laws.

A composite wall separates combustion gases at 2400°C from a liquid coolant at 100°C, with gas and liquid-side convection coeffi

evablogger [386]

Answer:

$\text{heat loss} = 24864.05 \ W/m^2$

Explanation:

If

$T_1$ , $T_2$ are temperatures of gasses and liquid in Kelvins,

$t_1$ and $t_2$ are thicknesses of gas layer and steel slab in meters,
$h_1$ , $h_2$ are convection coefficients gas and liquid in $W/m^2 \cdot K$ ,
$R_c$ is the contact resistance in $m^2 \cdot K/W$ ,

and $k_1, k_2$ are thermal conductivities of gas and steel in $W/m \cdot K$ ,

then: part(a):

$\text{heat loss } = \frac{T_1 - T_2} { \frac{1}{h_1} + \frac{t_1}{t_2} + R_c + \frac{t_2}{k_2} + \frac{1}{h_2}}$

using known values:

$\text {heat loss} = 2486.05 W/m^2$

part(b): Using the rate equation :

$\text {heat loss} = h_1 (T_1 - T_{s1})$

the surface temperature $T_{s1} = 1678.438 \ K$

and $T_{c1} = T_{s1} - \frac {t_1 (\text{heat loss})}{k_1} = 1664.560 \ K$

Similarly

$T_{c2} = T_{c1} - R_c (\text{heat loss}) = 421.357 \ K$

$T_{s2} = T_{c2} - \frac {t_2 (\text{heat loss})}{ k_2} = 397.864 \ K$

3. A 75kg man sits at one end of a uniform seesaw pivoted at its center, and his 24kg son sits at the

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The wife have to sit at 0.46 L from the middle point of the seesaw.

Explanation:

We need to make a sketch of the seesaw and the loads acting over it.

And by the studying of the Newton's law we can find the equation useful to find the distance of the mother sitting on the seesaw with respect to the center ot the pivot point.

A logical intuition will give us the idea that the mother will be on the side of her son to make the balance.

The maximum momentum with respect to the pivot point (0) will be:

$M=75 *\frac{L}{2}$

Where L/2 is the half of the distance of the seesaw

Therefore the other loads ( mom + son) must be create a momentum equal to the maximum momentum.

"For a first order instrument with a sensitivity of .4 mV/K and a time" constant of 25 ms, find the instrument’s response as a f

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

For a first order instrument with a sensitivity of .4 mV/K

constant c = 25 ms = 25 × 10⁻³ s

The initial temperature $T_1$ = 273 K

The final temperature $T_2$ = 473 K

The initial volume = 0.4 mV/K × 273 K = 109.2 V

The final volume = 0.4 mV/K × 473 K = 189.2 V

the instrument’s response as a function of time for a sudden temperature increase can be computed as follows:

Let consider y to be the function of time i.e y(t).

So;

y(t) = 109.2 + (189.2 - 109.2)( 1 - $\mathbf{e^{-t/c}}$ )mV

y(t) = (109.2 + 80 ( 1 - $\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}$ )) mV

Plot the response y(t) as a function of time.

The plot of y(t) as a function of time can be seen in the diagram attached below.

What are the units for y(t)?

The unit for y(t) is mV.

Find the 90% rise time for y(t90) and the error fraction,

The 90% rise time for y(t90) is as follows:

Initially 90% of 189.2 mV = 0.9 × 189.2 mV

= 170.28 mV

170.28 mV = (109.2 + 80 ( 1 - $\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}$ )) mV

170.28 mV - 109.2 mV = 80 ( 1 - $\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}$ )) mV

61.08 mV = 80 ( 1 - $\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}$ )) mV

0.7635 mV = ( 1 - $\mathbf{e^{t/25\times 10^{-3}}}$ )) mV

t = 1.44 × 25 × 10⁻³ s

t = 0.036 s

t = 36 ms

The error fraction = $\dfrac{189.2-170.28 }{189.2}$

The error fraction = 0.1

The error fraction = 10%
