Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average speed of 3 m/s at a rate of 550 m3/s at a location 58 m above the lake surface. Determine the total mechanical energy of the river water per unit mass (in kJ/kg) and the power generation potential of the entire river at that location (in MW). The density of water is 1000 kg/m3, and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2. The total mechanical energy of the river per unit mass is kJ/kg. The power generation potential of the entire river at that location is MW..

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 0.574 kJ/kg

2. 315.7 MW

Explanation:

1. The mechanical energy per unit mass of the river is given by:

[tex] E_{m} = E_{k} + E_{p} [/tex]

[tex] E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}v^{2} + gh [/tex]

Where:

Ek is the kinetic energy

Ep is the potential energy

v is the speed of the river = 3 m/s

g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h is the height = 58 m

[tex] E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}(3 m/s)^{2} + 9.81 m/s^{2}*58 m = 0.574 kJ/Kg [/tex]

Hence, the total mechanical energy of the river is 0.574 kJ/kg.

2. The power generation potential on the river is:

[tex] P = m(t)E_{m} = \rho*V(t)*E_{m} = 1000 kg/m^{3}*550 m^{3}/s*0.574 kJ/kg = 315.7 MW [/tex]

Therefore, the power generation potential of the entire river is 315.7 MW.

A 7.0 µF capacitor and a 5.0 µF capacitor are connected in series across a 5.0 kV potential difference. The charged capacitors are then disconnected from the source and connected to each other with terminals of like sign together. Find the charge on each capacitor (in mC) and the voltage across each capacitor (in V). (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations—including answers submitted in WebAssign.)

Answers

Explanation:

Given two capacitors 7.0 µF and 5.0 µF connected in series, let s calculate the effective capacitance.

[tex]\frac{1}{C_T} = \frac{1}{7.0} +\frac{1}{5.0}\\ \frac{1}{C_T} = \frac{5+7}{35} \\C_T = \frac{35}{12}\\ C_T = 2.9166\mu F[/tex]

Given

V = 5.0kV = 5000Volts

To get the total charge in the circuit, we will use the formula:

[tex]Q = C_TV\\Q = 2.9166\times 10^{-6} \times 5000\\Q = 0.014583 C\\Q = 1.4583 \times 10^{-2}C[/tex]

Since the same charge flows in a series connected capacitors, the charge on them in mC is 14.583mC

For the voltage across 7.0 µF:

[tex]V = \frac{Q}{C}\\V = \frac{0.014583}{0.000007} \\V = 2,083.28V[/tex]

Voltage across the 7.0 µF is 2,083.28V

The voltage across the  5.0 µF:

V = 5000 - 2,083.28

V = 2,916.72Volts

Voltage across the  5.0 µF is 2,916.72V

Answer:

The charge on the first capacitor is 14.59 mC

The voltage across the first capacitor is 2084 V

The charge on the second capacitor is 14.59 mC

The voltage across the second capacitor is 2918 V

Explanation:

Given;

first capacitor, C₁ = 7.0 µF

second capacitor, C₂ = 5.0 µF

potential difference, V = 5000 V

The equivalent capacitance is given by;

[tex]\frac{1}{C_{eq}}= \frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}\\\\\frac{1}{C_{eq}}= \frac{C_1 + C_2}{C_1C_2}\\\\C_{eq} = \frac{C_1C_2}{C_1 +C_2}\\\\ C_{eq} = \frac{(7*10^{-6})(5*10^{-6})}{(7*10^{-6} \ +\ 5*10^{-6})}\\\\C_{eq} = 2.917*10^{-6} \ F[/tex]

The charge on the first capacitor is given by;

[tex]Q_1 = C_{eq} V\\\\Q_1 = 2.917*10^{-6} *5000\\\\Q_1 = 0.01459 \ C\\\\Q_1 = 14.59 \ mC[/tex]

The voltage across the first capacitor is given by;

[tex]V_1 = \frac{Q_1}{C_1} \\\\V_1 = \frac{0.01459}{7*10^{-6}}\\\\ V_1 = 2084.286 \ V[/tex]

V₁ = 2084 V

The charge on the second capacitor is given by;

[tex]Q_2 = C_{eq} V\\\\Q_2 = 2.917*10^{-6} *5000\\\\Q_2 = 0.01459 \ C\\\\Q_2 = 14.59 \ mC[/tex]

The voltage across the second capacitor is given by;

[tex]V_2 = \frac{Q_2}{C_2}\\\\ V_2 = \frac{0.01459}{5*10^{-6}}\\\\V_2 = 2918 \ V[/tex]

When a parachute opens, the air exerts a large drag force on it. This upward force is initially greater than the weight of the sky diver and, thus, slows him down. Suppose the weight of the sky diver is 915 N and the drag force has a magnitude of 1061 N. The mass of the sky diver is 93.4 kg. Take upward to be the positive direction. What is his acceleration, including sign

Answers

Explanation:

According to newton's second law of motion.

[tex]\sum Fx = ma\\\\\sum Fx = 1061 - 915\\\\\sum Fx = 146N[/tex]

m is the mas of the sky diver = 93.4kg

a is the acceleration of the skydiver

From the formula above;

[tex]a = \frac{\sum Fx}{m}\\ \\a = \frac{146}{93.4}\\\\a = 1.563m/s^2[/tex]

Hence the acceleration of the sky diver is 1.563m/s²

What is an unbalance force ?

When the resultant force acting on a body is not equal to zero , the force acting on the body are known as unbalance forces . The body acted upon by unbalance forces changes its state of motion.

According to Newton if a body is experiencing net force =0 (which means that all horizontal and vertical forces are cancelling each other ), then the body will acquire an equilibrium state and will not move because forces are balancing each other and making net force on the body zero .

But unbalance force can tend the body to move in that direction in which a comparatively high force is acting due to which cancellation will not occur ( equilibrium state will not occur )

hence correct option A)Object moves

Answer:

The spring constant is 3.44x10⁶ kg/s².

Explanation:

We cand find the spring constant by conservation of energy:

[tex] mgh = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} [/tex]   (1)

Where:

m is the mass =  41700 kg

g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

A Navy Seal of mass 80 kg parachuted directly down into an enemy harbor. At one point while she was falling, the resistive force that air exerted on her was 520 N upward. What can you determine about her motion at this point in time

Answers

Answer:

The Navy Seal is accelerating downwards at the rate of 3.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the Navy Seal, m = 80 kg

the upward resistive force on her, F = 520 N

Her net downward force is given by;

[tex]F_{net} = F_{down} - F_{up}\\\\F_{net} = (80*9.8) - 520\\\\F_{net} = 264 \ N[/tex]

Her downward acceleration at this time is given by;

F = ma

a = F / m

a = 264 / 80

a = 3.3 m/s²

Therefore, the Navy Seal is accelerating downwards at the rate of 3.3 m/s²

What is the maximum speed with which a 1200-kg car can round a turn of radius 92.0 m on a flat road if the coefficient of static friction between tires and road is 0.65

Answers

Answer:

24.22m/s

Explanation:

Given data

mass m= 1200kg

radius r=92m

coefficient of friction μ=0.65

We know that

F=mv2/r

F=μmg  

mv2/r = μsmg  

v^2/r = μsg

The earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 N/C and directed in toward the center of the earth. (a) What magnitude and sign of charge would a 60-kg human have to acquire to overcome his or her weight by the force exerted by the earth’s electric field? (b) What would be the force of repulsion between two people each with the charge calculated in part (a) and separated by a distance of 100 m? Is use of the earth’s electric field a feasible means of flight? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the electric charge that a 60-kg human must have to overcome weight is 3.923 coulombs and its sign is negative.

b) The force of repulsion between two people is [tex]13.851\times 10^{6}[/tex] newtons. The use of the earth's electric field a feasible means of flight is not feasible since electric force of repulsion would destroy human body before taking advantage of any possible flight skill.

Explanation:

a) From Second Newton's Law, we form this equation of equilibrium:

[tex]\Sigma F = F_{E}-W = 0[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]F_{E}[/tex] - Electrostatic force exerted on human, measured in Newton.

[tex]W[/tex] - Weight of the human, measured in Newton.

If we consider that human can be represented as a particle and make use of definitions of electric field and weight, the previous equation is expanded and electric charge is cleared afterwards:

[tex]q\cdot E-m\cdot g = 0[/tex]

[tex]q = \frac{m\cdot g}{E}[/tex] (Eq. 2)

[tex]E[/tex] - Electric field, measured in Newtons per Coloumb.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, measured in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravity acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]q[/tex] - Electric charge, measured in Coulomb.

As electric field of the Earth is directed in toward the center of the planet, that is, in the same direction of gravity, electric field must be a negative value. If we know that [tex]m = 60\,kg[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]E = -150\,\frac{N}{C}[/tex], the charge that a 60-kg human must have to overcome weight is:

[tex]q = \frac{(60\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}{-150\,\frac{N}{C} }[/tex]

[tex]q = -3.923\,C[/tex]

The magnitude of the electric charge that a 60-kg human must have to overcome weight is 3.923 coulombs and its sign is negative.

b) The electric force of repulsion between two people with the same charge calculated in part (a) is determined by Coulomb's Law, whose definition we proceed to use:

[tex]F = \kappa \cdot \frac{q^{2}}{r^{2}}[/tex] (Eq. 3)

Where:

[tex]\kappa[/tex] - Electrostatic constant, measured in Newton-square meter per square Coulomb.

[tex]q[/tex] - Electric charge, measured in Coulomb.

[tex]r[/tex] - Distance between two people, measured in meters.

If we know that [tex]\kappa = 9\times 10^{9}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C^{2}}[/tex], [tex]q = -3.923\,C[/tex] and [tex]r = 100\,m[/tex], then the force of repulsion between two people is:

[tex]F = \left(9\times 10^{9}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C^{2}} \right)\cdot \left[\frac{(-3.923\,C)^{2}}{(100\,m)^{2}} \right][/tex]

[tex]F = 13.851\times 10^{6}\,N[/tex]

The force of repulsion between two people is [tex]13.851\times 10^{6}[/tex] newtons. The use of the earth's electric field a feasible means of flight is not feasible since electric force of repulsion would destroy human body before taking advantage of any possible flight skill.



When driving at slower speeds you need to use what type of steering

wheel movements compared to when driving at faster speeds? *

Answers

Answer:

slower speeds = larger and faster steering wheel movements

faster speeds = small and slow steering wheel movements

Explanation:

When driving at slower speeds you need to use larger and faster steering wheel movements. This is because at slow speeds the car does not have enough momentum to make certain maneuvers with small steering wheel movements in a given amount of time, therefore making large and faster steering wheel movements gives the car enough time with the momentum it has to make the desired maneuver. At faster speeds only small and slow steering wheel movements are needed and while cause the car to quickly change to the desired direction due to the increased momentum of the car.

A ball of mass m is found to have a weight Wx on Planet X. Which of the following is a correct expression for the gravitational field strength of Planet X?


A. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is mg.

B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

C. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is 9.8 N/kg.

D. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is mWx.

Answers

Answer: B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

Explanation:

Weight is a force, and as we know by the second Newton's law:

F = m*a

Force equals mass times acceleration.

Then if the weight is:

Wx, and the mass is m, we have the equation:

Wx = m*a

Where in this case, a is the gravitational field strength.

Then, isolating a in that equation we get:

Wx/m = a

Then the correct option is:

B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

Answers

Answer:

A) T1 = 269.63 K

T2 = 192.59 K

B) W = -320 KJ

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial volume: V1 = 7 m³

Final Volume; V2 = 5 m³

Constant Pressure; P = 160 KPa

Mass; m = 2 kg

To find the initial and final temperatures, we will use the ideal gas formula;

T = PV/mR

Where R is gas constant of helium = R = 2.0769 kPa.m/kg

Thus;

Initial temperature; T1 = (160 × 7)/(2 × 2.0769) = 269.63 K

Final temperature; T2 = (160 × 5)/(2 × 2.0769) = 192.59 K

B) world one is given by the formula;

W = P(V2 - V1)

W = 160(5 - 7)

W = -320 KJ

Consider the force field and circle defined below. F(x, y) = x2 i + xy j x2 + y2 = 121 (a) Find the work done by the force field on a particle that moves once around the circle oriented in the clockwise direction.

Answers

Answer: the work done by the force is 0

Explanation:

F (x², xy)

121 = 11²

so R = x² + y² = 11²

p = x². Q = xy

Δp/Δy = 0, ΔQ/Δx

using Green's theorem

woek = c_∫F.Δr = R_∫∫ ΔQ/Δx - Δp/Δy) ΔA

=  (x² + y² = 121)_∫∫ yΔA

now let x = rcosФ, y = rsinФ

ΔA = rΔrΔФ

so r from 0 to 11

and Ф from 0 to 2π

= 0_∫^2π   0_∫^11  rsinФ × rΔrΔФ

= 0_∫^2π SinФΔФ   0_∫^11  r²Δr

= [ -cosФ]^2π_0 [r³/3]₀¹¹ = ( -cos2π + cos0) (11³/3) = 0

The average speed of an object, S SS, is calculated using the formula S = D T S= T D ​ S, equals, start fraction, D, divided by, T, end fraction, where T TT is the time it takes to travel a distance of D DD units. Rearrange the formula to solve for time ( T ) (T)

Answers

Answer:

T = D/S

Explanation:

Given the formula for calculating the average speed of an object as:

average speed = Distance/Time

Let average speed = S

Distance = D

Time = T

Substitute

S = D/T

Make T the subject of the formula:

From S = D/T

Cross multiply

ST = D

Divide both sides by S

ST/S = D/S

T = D/S

Hence the expression for he time T after rearrangement is T = D/S

SOMEBODY HELP ME

Answers

Answer:

A. 1.4 m/s to the left

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of momentum. Let's define the velocity signs according to the direction, if the velocity is to the right, a positive sign will be introduced into the equation, if the velocity is to the left, a negative sign will be introduced into the equation. Two moments will be analyzed in this equation. The moment before the collision and the moment after the collision. The moment before the collision is taken to the left of the equation and the moment after the collision to the right, so we have:

[tex]M_{before} = M_{after}[/tex]

where:

M = momentum [kg*m/s]

M = m*v

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

[tex](m_{1} *v_{1} )-(m_{2} *v_{2})=(m_{1} *v_{3} )+(m_{2} *v_{4})[/tex]

where:

m1 = mass of the basketball = 0.5 [kg]

v1 = velocity of the basketball before the collision = 5 [m/s]

m2 = mass of the tennis ball = 0.05 [kg]

v2 = velocity of the tennis ball before the collision = - 30 [m/s]

v3 =  velocity of the basketball after the collision [m/s]

v4 = velocity of the tennis ball after the collision = 34 [m/s]

Now replacing and solving:

(0.5*5) - (0.05*30) = (0.5*v3) + (0.05*34)

1 - (0.05*34) = 0.5*v3

- 0.7 = 0.5*v

v = - 1.4 [m/s]

(b) [tex]The \ average \ velocity = 0.\overline{857142} \ m/s[/tex]

The reason the above values are correct is given as follows;

The given parameters are;

Distance of the nearest grocery store to the house, d = 60 m

Direction of the grocery store = East from the house

Walking speed, s = 1.2 m/s

Time of walking before the rain started, t₁ = 15.0 s

Time it takes to go back to the house, t₂ = 5.0 s

Speed at which the start walking again, s = 1.2 m/s

(a) The formula for average speed, [tex]s_{avg}[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]s_{avg} = \dfrac{Total \ distance }{Sum \ of \ time \ taken}[/tex]

The distance walked before the rain, d₁ = 1.2 m/s × 15.0 s = 18 meters

Distance covered on returning to the house = d₂ = d₁ = 18 meters

The total distance covered, ∑Distance = d₁ + d₂ + 60

∴ ∑Distance = 18 m + 18 m + 60 m = 96 m

The time, t₃, it takes to get to the grocery store on the second attempt after getting the umbrella is given as follows;

[tex]t_3 = \dfrac{d}{v}[/tex]

[tex]t_3 = \dfrac{60 \ m}{1.2 \ m/s} = 50.0 \, s[/tex]

The total time, ∑Time = t₁ + t₂ + t₃

∴ ∑Time = 15.0 s + 5.0 s + 50.0 s = 70.0 s

[tex]Average \ speed = \dfrac{\sum Distance}{\sum Time}[/tex]

[tex]Average \ speed = \dfrac{96 \, m}{70 \, s} = \dfrac{48}{35} \ m/s= 1.37\overline{142857} \ m/s[/tex]

[tex]Average \ speed = 1.37\overline{142857} \ m/s[/tex]

(b) The average velocity, [tex]v_{avg}[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]v_{avg}= \dfrac{Total \ displacement}{Total \ time}[/tex]

The total displacement = The total change in location = The change in location from the house to the grocery =  60 m

The total time is the same as for the average speed, ∑Time = 70 s

[tex]\therefore v_{avg}= \dfrac{60 \, m}{70 \, s} = \dfrac{6}{7} \ m/s = 0.\overline{857142} \ m/s[/tex]

[tex]The \ average \ velocity = 0.\overline{857142} \ m/s[/tex]
