A spaceship is travelling at 20,000.0 m/s. After 5.0 seconds, the rocket thrusters are turned on. At the 55.0 second mark, the s

hip has a velocity of 24,000.0 m/s. What is the acceleration of the rocket?

Answer:

80 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time interval it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

For the rocket in this problem,

u = 20,000 m/s

v = 24,000 m/s

t = 55.0 - 5.0 = 50.0 s

Substituting,

a=\frac{24000-20000}{50}=80 m/s^2

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

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

Assuming the starting height is 0.0 m, calculate the potential energy of the cart after it has been elevated to a height of 0.5
Bogdan [553]
The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,

     E = mgh

where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,

   E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m

Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.

Calculate the amount of hcn that gives the lethal dose in a small laboratory room measuring 14 × 15 × 8.0ft. the density of air
vova2212 [387]
Since we are given the density and volume, then perhaps we can determine the amount in terms of the mass. All we have to do is find the volume in terms of cm³ so that it will cancel out with the cm³ in the density. The conversion is 1 ft = 30.48 cm. The solution is as follows:

V = (14 ft)(15 ft)(8 ft)(30.48 cm/1 ft)³ = 0.0593 cm³

The mass is equal to:
Mass = (0.00118g/cm³)(0.0593 cm³)
Mass = 7 grams of HCN

If the coefficient of static friction between a table and a uniform massive rope is μs, what fraction of the rope can hang over
astra-53 [7]
Let me give you the procedure like this:
Lets say that F is the fraction of the rope hanging over the table
If its like that then we have to take into account that the <span>friction force keeping on table is given by the following formula:</span>
<span>Ff = u*(1-f)*m*g </span>
and we need to know aso that <span>gravity force pulling off the table Fg is given by this other formula:</span>
<span>Fg = f*m*g </span>
What you need to do is <span>Equate the two and solve for f: </span>

<span>f*m*g = u*(1-f)*m*g </span>
<span>=> f = u*(1-f) = u - uf </span>
<span>=> f + uf = u </span>
=> f = u/(1+u) = fraction of rope
With that you can find the answer
