A steel tank of weight 600 lb is to be accelerated straight upward at a rate of 1.5 ft/sec2. Knowing the magnitude of the force
P is 525 lb, determine the values of the angle a and the required magnitude of the vertical force, F.
1 answer:
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

Answer:
time required after impact for a puck is 2.18 seconds
Explanation:
given data
mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg
diameter = 100 mm = 0.1 m
thick = 0.1 mm = 1 × m
dynamic viscosity = 1.75 × Ns/m²
air temperature = 15°C
to find out
time required after impact for a puck to lose 10%
solution
we know velocity varies here 0 to v
we consider here initial velocity = v
so final velocity = 0.9v
so change in velocity is du = v
and clearance dy = h
and shear stress acting on surface is here express as
= µ
so
= µ ............1
put here value
= 1.75× ×
= 0.175 v
and
area between air and puck is given by
Area =
area =
area = 7.85 × m²
so
force on puck is express as
Force = × area
force = 0.175 v × 7.85 ×
force = 1.374 × v
and now apply newton second law
force = mass × acceleration
- force =
- 1.374 × v =
t =
time = 2.18
so time required after impact for a puck is 2.18 seconds
