5. A vehicle having a mass of 1000 kg had an accident on a wet, but level, concrete road under foggy
conditions. The tires were measured to have y = 0.55 on wet concrete. The driver locked the
brakes, skidded for 6 seconds, and then hit the guardrail causing a very small dent because the
vehicle stopped just as it touched the guardrail. The driver claimed to be driving 65 miles per hour
(29 m/s). You have been hired as an investigator to determine if the driver is telling the truth.
a. What is the weight of the vehicle?
b. The frictional force produces the negative acceleration that reduces the velocity of the
vehicle from its initial unknown speed to zero. Find the value of the frictional force.
Use the frictional force to calculate the acceleration (remember that it is a negative
number). Hint: Use Newton's 2nd Law.
d. Using your acceleration from partc, what was the driver's initial velocity? Hint: Use this
equation - The final velocity is 0 m/s.
6. Complete this form to let me know what your questions are. This helps me get you the help you
need - either during class or individually through videos

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

1) weight = mg = 9.81*1000 = 9810 Newtons

2) frictional force = normal force *

we must assume that the vehicle is on a flat surface so therefore the normal force is the same as the weight of the vehicle.

frictional force = 9810 * 0.55 = 5 395.5 N

3) acceleration: F = ma, a = F/m

assume that only the frictional force is acting on the vehicle:

a = 5395.5/1000 = 5.3955 m/s

4) the car decelerates at 5.3955m/s

over 6 seconds, the car decelerates by: 32.37m/s

5) original speed = 29m/s final speed = 29-32.37 = -3.37m/s which is a negative number, therefore the vehicle would have stopped before it hit the rail.

6) to get to the rail, the vehicle would have had to be traveling at least 32.37m/s which is 72.41 mph

A gas is compressed to 75cm3 to a volume of 30cm3. Its temperature remains the same The pressure of the gas after it has been compressed is 110 Pa. What was the pressure before it was compressed?

Answers

Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 75cm³

New volume  = 30cm³

New pressure  = 110Pa

Unknown:

Initial pressure = ?

Solution:

Condition: temperature is constant

We simply apply Boyle's law to this problem:

   " the volume of a fixed mass(mole) of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

  Mathematically;

          P₁ V₁  = P₂ V₂

where P and V are pressure and volume values

          1 and 2 are the initial and final states.

Input the parameters and solve for P₁;

     P₁ x 75  = 110 x 30

   P₁ = 44Pa

         

The initial pressure is 44Pa

Three identical 6.4kg masses are hung by three identical springs. Each spring has a force constant of 7.8 Kn/m and is 12cm long before any masses are attached to it. how long is the bottom most spring going to be after the three masses are hung on it
a. 14.3 b. 16.2 c.12.8 d.10.7

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. 12.8 cm

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The length of each spring = 12 m  = 0.12 m

Given that the masses and the springs are vertically oriented, we have;

The mass on the first spring = 3 × 6.4 = 19.2 kg

The weight on the first spring = 19.2 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 188.352 N

The extension of the first spring = 188.352 N/7,800 N/m ≈ 0.02415 m

The mass on the second spring = 2 × 6.4 = 12.8 kg

The weight on the second spring = 12.8 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 125.568 N

The extension of the second spring = 125.568 N/7,800 N/m ≈ 0.016098 m

The mass on the third spring = 1 × 6.4 = 6.4 kg

The weight on the third spring = 6.4 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 62.784 N

The extension of the third (bottom) spring = 62.784 N/7,800 N/m ≈ 0.00805 m

The total length of the bottom spring = Original length of the bottom spring + Extension of the bottom spring

The total length of the bottom spring ≈ 0.12 m + 0.00805 m = 0.12805 m

The total length of the bottom spring ≈ 0.12805 m ≈ 12.81 cm

The bottom spring will be approximately 12.81 cm long.

The heat loss from a boiler is to be held at a maximum of 900Btu/h ft2 of wall area. What thickness of asbestos (k= 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉) is required if the inner and outer surfaces of the insulation are to be 1600 and 500℉, respectively? Now if a 3-in.-thick layer of kaolin brick (k= 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉) is added to the outside of the asbestos, what heat flux will be result if the outside surface of the kaolin is 250℉? What will be the temperature at the interface between the asbestos and kaolin for this condition?

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.122 ft b. -70 Btu/h ft² c. 633.33 °F

Explanation:

a. Since the rate of heat loss dQ/dt = kAΔT/d where k = thermal conductivity, A = area, ΔT = temperature gradient and d = thickness of insulation.

Now [dQ/dt]/A = kΔT/d

Given that [dQ/dt]/A = rate of heat loss per unit area = -900Btu/h ft², k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉(for asbestos), ΔT = T₂ - T₁ = 500 °F - 1600 °F = -1100 °F. We need to find the thickness of asbestos, d. So,

d = kΔT/[dQ/dt]/A

d = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉ × -1100 °F/-900Btu/h ft²

d = 0.122 ft

b. If the 3 in thick Kaolin is added to the outside of the asbestos, and the outside temperature of the asbestos is 250℉, the heat loss due to the Kaolin is thus

[dQ/dt]/A = k'ΔT'/d'

k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(for Kaolin), ΔT' = T₂ - T₁ = 250 °F - 500 °F = -250 °F and d' = 3 in = 3/12 ft = 0.25 ft

[dQ/dt]/A = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉ × -250 °F/0.25 ft

[dQ/dt]/A  = -70 Btu/h ft²

c. To find the temperature at the interface, the total heat flux equals the individual heat loss from the asbestos and kaolin. So

[dQ/dt]/A = k(T₂ - T₁)/d + k'(T₃ - T₂)/d' where  [dQ/dt]/A = -900Btu/h ft², k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉(for asbestos), k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(for Kaolin), T₁ = 1600 °F, T₂ = unknown and T₃ = 250℉.

Substituting these values into the equation, we have

-900Btu/h ft² = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉(T₂ - 1600 °F)/0.122 ft + 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(250℉ - T₂)/0.25 ft

-900Btu/h ft² = 0.82 Btu/h ft ℉(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28Btu/h ft ℉(250℉ - T₂)

-900 °F = 0.82(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28(250℉ - T₂)

-900 °F = 0.82T₂  - 1312°F + 70 °F - 0.28T₂

collecting like terms, we have

-900 °F + 1312°F - 70 °F = 0.82T₂   - 0.28T₂

342 °F = 0.54T₂

Dividing both sides by 0.54, we have

T₂ = 342 °F/0.54

T₂ = 633.33 °F

The thickness of asbestos required is 0.122 ft.

The heat flux will be -70 Btu/h ft²

And the temperature of the interface is 633.33 °F.  

(i) the rate of heat loss :

dQ/dt = kAΔT/d

where k = thermal conductivity, A = area, ΔT = temperature gradient, and

d = thickness of insulation.

[dQ/dt]/A = kΔT/d

Given that [dQ/dt]/A = rate of heat loss per unit area = -900Btu/h ft²,

k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉,

ΔT = 500 °F - 1600 °F = -1100 °F

We have to find the thickness of asbestos that is d.

d = kΔT/[dQ/dt]/A

d = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉ × -1100 °F/-900Btu/h ft²

d = 0.122 ft is the thickness required.

(ii) a 3-in thick Kaolin is added to the outside of the asbestos

outside temperature of the asbestos is 250℉,

the heat loss due to the Kaolin is:

[dQ/dt]/A = k'ΔT'/d'

k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉(for Kaolin), ΔT' = T₂ - T₁ = 250 °F - 500 °F = -250 °F and d' = 3 in = 3/12 ft = 0.25 ft

[dQ/dt]/A = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉ × -250 °F/0.25 ft

[dQ/dt]/A  = -70 Btu/h ft²

(iii) temperature at the interface

the total heat flux :

[dQ/dt]/A = k(T₂ - T₁)/d + k'(T₃ - T₂)/d'

where  [dQ/dt]/A = -900 Btu/h ft²,

k = 0.10 Btu/h ft ℉  (for asbestos),

k' = 0.07 Btu/h ft ℉  (for Kaolin),

T₁ = 1600 °F and T₃ = 250℉.

-900 = 0.10(T₂ - 1600 °F)/0.122 + 0.07(250℉ - T₂)/0.25

-900 = 0.82(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28(250℉ - T₂)

-900 °F = 0.82(T₂ - 1600 °F) + 0.28(250℉ - T₂)

-900 °F = 0.82T₂  - 1312°F + 70 °F - 0.28T₂

-900 °F + 1312°F - 70 °F = 0.82T₂   - 0.28T₂

342 °F = 0.54T₂

Dividing both sides by 0.54, we have

T₂ = 342 °F/0.54

T₂ = 633.33 °F

To be able to solve this type of problems it is always advisable to make a free body diagram with the forces acting on the body.

Attached is an image with the free body diagram and the proposed equations, the explanation of obtaining the equations will be described below.

Let's take the movement to the left as positive, i.e. all forces going to the left have a positive sign.

Let's use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

To the left we have the two forces of tension by the cosine of the angle. And to the right the frictional force. The resultant of these forces is equal to the product of the mass (mass of the child plus the mass of the sled), by acceleration.

A planned high-speed train between Houston and Dallas will travel a distance of 386 kilometers in 5.40 × 10^3 seconds. What is the average speed of this train?

Answers

¡Hellow!

For this problem, first, lets convert the seconds in hours:

5,4x10³[tex]\rightarrow[/tex] 5400

h = sec / 3600

h = 5400 s / 3600

h = 1,5

Let's recabe information:

d (Distance) = 386 km

t (Time) = 1,5 h

v (Velocity) = ?

For calculate velocity, let's applicate formula:

                                                    [tex]\boxed{\boxed{\textbf{d = v * t} } }[/tex]

Reeplace according we information:

386 km = v * 1,5 h

v = 386 km / 1,5 h

v = 257,33 km/h

The velocity of the train is of 257,33 kilometers for hour.

Extra:

For convert km/h to m/s, we divide the velocity of km/h for 3,6:

m/s = km/h / 3,6

Let's reeplace:

m/s = 257,33 km/h / 3,6

m/s = 71,48
