While it’s impossible to design a perpetual motion machine, that is, a machine that keeps moving forever, come up with ways to k

eep some type of periodic motion going for a very long time. Explain the limits on perpetual motion. Discuss what slows down a machine and how you might minimize those effects for at least one specific form of periodic motion, such as the motion of a spring or pendulum, or circular motion. Come up with an inventive solution!

Answer:

We can not create a perpetual motion machine because this kind of motion violates two laws of thermodynamic.

Explanation:

We can not create a perpetual motion machine because this kind of motion violates two laws of thermodynamic.

1. In any isolated system we can not create and destroy energy, it is a law of conservation of energy, all the energy is transformed, so the thermal efficiency, that is the produced work divided by the input heating can not be greater than one.

A perpetual motion machine needs to create energy to remain its movement constant along the time.

2. The second law of thermodynamic is related to the entropy, it is always positive. A natural process runs only in one sense, and is not reversible. Therefore the output work power of heat of a engine for instance is always smaller than the input heating power ans the rest of the heat energy supplied is wasted as heat to the ambient surroundings. The thermal efficiency has a maximum, given by the Carnot efficiency, which is always less than one.

That is way we can not create a perpetual motion machine.  We can create a machine that minimize those effects and maximize the efficient. We can reduce the air resistance for example.

I hope it helps you!

A perpetual motion machine is (as the name implies) a machine that moves perpetually; it never stops. Ever. So if you created one today and set it going, it would keep on going until the Big Freeze<span>. Calling that “a long time” is an understatement of epic proportions</span>

Which of the following characterizes Erik Erikson's identity versus role confusion stage?
andrew11 [14]
Identity vs. Role confusion is the 5th stage of Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development.

During this stage, adolescents try to explore their independence. They begin to get interested in social interaction and relationships. This is also the time they begin to feel confused and insecure about themselves trying to figure out how to fit in the group. This is the reason why they engage themselves in different roles and activities.

Steam at 0.6 MPa, 200 oC, enters an insulated nozzle with a velocity of 50 m/s. It leaves at a pressure of 0.15 MPa and a veloci
Rudiy27

Answer:

x2 = 0.99

Explanation:

from superheated water table

at pressure p1 = 0.6MPa and temperature 200 degree celcius

h1 = 2850.6 kJ/kg

From energy equation we have following relation

\dot m( h1+\frac{v1^2}{2}+ gz1 )+ Q = \dot m( h2+\frac{v2^2}{2}+ gz1) + W

\dot m( h1+\frac{v1^2}{2}) = \dot m( h2+\frac{v2^2}{2})

h1+\frac{v1^2}{2} = h2+\frac{v2^2}{2}

2850.6 + [\frac{50^2}{2} * \frac{1 kJ/kg}{1000 m^2/S^2}] = h2 +[ \frac{600^2}{2} * \frac{1 kJ/kg}{1000 m^2/S^2}]

h2 = 2671.85 kJ/kg

from superheated water table

at pressure p2 = 0.15MPa

specific enthalpy of fluid hf = 467.13 kJ/kg

enthalpy change hfg = 2226.0 kJ/kg

specific enthalpy of the saturated gas hg = 2693.1 kJ/kg

as it can be seen from above value hf>h2>hg, so phase 2 is two phase region. so we have

quality of steam x2

h2 = hf + x2(hfg)

2671.85 = 467.13 +x2*2226.0

x2 = 0.99

A major league baseball pitcher throws a pitch that follows these parametric equations: x(t) = 142t y(t) = –16t2 + 5t + 5. The t
azamat

Answer:

(a) x'(t)= 142

(b) 142

(c) y'(t)= -32t+5

(d) 96.8 mph

(e) 0.426 s

(f) 0.061 rad

Explanation:

Velocity is a time-derivative of position.

(a) x(t) = 142t

x'(t)= 142

(b) Since x'(t)= 142 is independent of t, it follows it was constant throughout. Hence, at any point or time, the horizontal velocity is 142.

(c) y(t) = - 16t^2+5t+5

y'(t)= -32t+5

(d) When it passes the home plate, the ball has travelled 60.5 ft (from the question). This is horizontal, so it is equivalent to x(t).

x(t)= 142t = 60.5

t=\dfrac{60.5}{142}= 0.426.

In this time, the vertical velocity, y'(t) is

y(t)= -32\times0.426+5 = -8.632

The speed of the ball at thus point is s=\sqrt{142^2+(-8.632)^2}=142 ft/s

To convert this to mph, we multiply the factor 3600/5280

s=142\times\dfrac{3600}{5280}=96.8 \text{ mph}

(e) The time has been determined from (d) above.

t= 0.426

(f) This angle is given by

\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{y'(t)}{x'(t)}

\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{-8.632}{142}=\tan^{-1}-0.0607=3.47 (Note here we are considering the acute angle so we ignore the negative sign)

In radians, this is

\theta=3.47\times\dfrac{\pi}{180}=0.061 \text{ rad}
