Serjik [45]

Answer:

df / ft = -n 12          n= 1, 3, 5, ...

Explanation:

The speed of sound is

         v = λ f

         

In a whistle that we approach by an open tube at one end and closed at the other, standing waves occur, which has a node in the closed part and a maximum in the open pate, whereby wavelength and the distance of the tube are related, the fundamental wave is

         λ₁ = 4L

   The harmonics are

        λ₃ = 4L / 3

        λ₅ = 4L / 5

The general formula

       λₙ = 4L / n              

with n = 1, 3, 5,…

We substitute and clear in the first equation

           f = v n / 4L                        n = 1, 3, 5,…

Let's use derivatives to find the frequency change

           df / dt = v n /4  dL⁻¹ / dt

          d / dt (1/L) = - 1 / L² dL / dt

Where dL / dt = 8 cm / s

We replace

         df / dt = - n v / L2 dL / dt

Let's calculate

         df / dt = - n 340/152 8

         df / ft = -n 12          n= 1, 3, 5, ...

A displacement vector points in a direction of θ = 23° left of the positive y-axis. The magnitude of this vector is D = 155 m. R
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Dₓ = -155 sin 23° i + 0 j

Explanation:

The diagram showing the vector has been attached to this response.

As shown in the diagram,

The vector D has an x-component (also called horizontal component) of -D sinθ i. i.e

Dₓ = -D sin θ i   [The negative sign shows that D lies in the negative x direction]

Where;

D = magnitude of D = 155m

θ = direction of D = 23°

Therefore;

Dₓ = -155 sin 23° i

Since Dₓ represents the x component, its unit vector, j component has a value of 0.

Therefore, Dₓ can be written in terms of D, θ and the unit vectors i and j as follows;

Dₓ = -155 sin 23° i + 0 j

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F 2 F0 5 kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the prel
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

a)W=8.333lbf.ft

b)W=0.0107 Btu.

Explanation:

<u>Complete question</u>

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F– F0 = kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the preload. Determine the work required to compress a spring whose spring constant is k= 200 lbf/in a distance of one inch starting from its free length where F0 = 0 lbf. Express your answer in both lbf-ft and Btu.

Solution

Preload = F₀=0 lbf

Spring constant k= 200 lbf/in

Initial length of spring x₁=0

Final length of spring x₂= 1 in

At any point, the force during deflection of a spring is given by;

F= F₀× kx  where F₀ initial force, k is spring constant and x is the deflection from original point of the spring.

W=\int\limits^2_1 {} \, Fds \\\\\\W=\int\limits^2_1( {F_0+kx} \,) dx \\\\\\W=\int\limits^a_b {kx} \, dx ; F_0=0\\\\\\W=k\int\limits^2_1 {x} \, dx \\\\\\W=k*\frac{1}{2} (x_2^{2}-x_1^{2}  )\\\\\\W=200*\frac{1}{2} (1^2-0)\\\\\\W=100.lbf.in\\\\

Change to lbf.ft by dividing the value by 12 because 1ft=12 in

100/12 = 8.333 lbf.ft

work required to compress the spring, W=8.333lbf.ft

The work required to compress the spring in Btu will be;

1 Btu= 778 lbf.ft

?= 8.333 lbf.ft----------------cross multiply

(8.333*1)/ 778 =0.0107 Btu.

A 1.0 104 kg spacecraft is traveling through space with a speed of 1200 m/s relative to Earth. A thruster fires for 2.0 min, exe
aniked [119]
We are given information:
m=1.0* 10^{4} kg \\ v=1200m/s \\ t=2min=120s \\ F = 25kN = 25000N

If we apply Newton's second law we can calculate acceleration:
F = m * a
a = F / m
a = 25000 / 10000
a = 2.5 m/s^2

Now we can use this information to calculate change of speed.
a = v / t
v = a * t
v = 2.5 * 120
v = 300 m/s

Force is being applied in direction that is opposite to a direction in which space craft is moving. This means that final speed will be reduced.
v = 1200 - 300
v = 900 m/s

Formula for momentum is:
p = m * v
Initial momentum:
p = 10000 * 1200
p = 12 000 000
p = 12 *10^6 kg*m/s
Final momentum:
p = 10000 * 900
p = 9 000 000
p = 9 *10^6 kg*m/s
