Part A) The velocity of the vehicle relative to the police car is -4.0 m/s due east.

Part B) The velocity of the police car relative to the vehicle is 4.0 m/s due east.

The velocity of the vehicle relative to the police car can be found by subtracting the velocity of the police car from the velocity of the vehicle.

Relative velocity = Velocity of the vehicle - Velocity of the police car

Relative velocity = 33.7 m/s - 37.7 m/s = -4.0 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the vehicle relative to the police car is -4.0 m/s due east.

The velocity of the police car relative to the vehicle is the opposite of the velocity of the vehicle relative to the police car.

Velocity of the police car relative to the vehicle = - (Velocity of the vehicle relative to the police car)

Velocity of the police car relative to the vehicle = - (-4.0 m/s) = 4.0 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the police car relative to the vehicle is 4.0 m/s due east.

Part A) To find the velocity of the vehicle relative to the police car, we subtract the velocity of the police car from the velocity of the vehicle. Since both velocities are in the same direction (east), we simply subtract the magnitudes. The resulting velocity of -4.0 m/s indicates that the vehicle is moving at a slower speed relative to the police car.

Part B) The velocity of the police car relative to the vehicle is found by taking the negative of the velocity of the vehicle relative to the police car.

This is because the relative velocity is the opposite direction when considering the perspective of the police car. The resulting positive velocity of 4.0 m/s indicates that the police car is moving at a faster speed relative to the vehicle.

The fan experiences approximately 14 revolutions during the given time period. The fan experiences a decrease in angular velocity from 842 rev/min to 411 rev/min over a time period of 2 seconds.

To determine the number of revolutions the fan undergoes during this time, we need to calculate the total change in angular displacement.

First, we need to convert the angular velocities from rev/min to radians/s, as the SI unit for angular velocity is radians per second.

Initial angular velocity: 842 rev/min = (842 rev/min) * (2π rad/rev) * (1/60 min/s) = 88.36 rad/s

Final angular velocity: 411 rev/min = (411 rev/min) * (2π rad/rev) * (1/60 min/s) = 42.98 rad/s

Next, we use the formula for angular acceleration:

Angular acceleration (α) = (change in angular velocity) / (time) = (final angular velocity - initial angular velocity) / (time)

= (42.98 rad/s - 88.36 rad/s) / 2 s

= -22.19 rad/[tex]s^2[/tex] (negative sign indicates a decrease in angular velocity)

To find the change in angular displacement, we use the equation:

Δθ = ωi * t + (1/2) * α * [tex]t^2[/tex]

= 88.36 rad/s * 2 s + (1/2) * (-22.19 [tex]rad/s^2[/tex]) * [tex](2 s)^2[/tex]

= 176.72 rad - 88.76 rad

= 87.96 rad

Since one revolution is equivalent to 2π radians, we can calculate the number of revolutions:

Number of revolutions = Δθ / (2π rad/rev)

= 87.96 rad / (2π rad/rev)

≈ 13.98 rev

Therefore, the fan experiences approximately 14 revolutions during the given time period.

Therefore, f_s = μ_s N

= 0.721 * 478.728 N

= 345.012 N

Thus, the minimum horizontal pushing force required to start the crate moving is 345.012 N.

An elevator with a mass of 5000 kg is to be designed such that the maximum acceleration is[tex]6.90 × 10^-2 g[/tex]. We are required to determine the maximum and minimum force that the motor should exert on the supporting cable. Firstly, let us compute the maximum force that the motor should exert on the supporting cable.

The force required to lift an object is given by F = mg, where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Therefore, the force required to lift the elevator is given by:

[tex]F = mg = 5000 kg × 9.81 m/s^2 = 49050 N[/tex]

The maximum acceleration of the elevator is given by[tex]6.90 × 10^-2 g.[/tex]

Therefore, the maximum force that the motor should exert on the supporting cable is given by:

[tex]F_max = F × 6.90 × 10^-2 = 49050 N × 6.90 × 10^-2 = 3380 N[/tex]

To calculate the power of the Pelton wheel, we can use the formula:

Power = (Flow rate) × (Head) × (Acceleration due to gravity)

Given that the flow rate is 0.68 m³/s and the head is 30 m, and using the value of the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²), we can calculate:

Power = (0.68 m³/s) × (30 m) × (9.8 m/s²) = 1999.68 W ≈ 1999.7 kW

Therefore, the power output of the Pelton wheel is approximately 1999.7 kW or 979.2 kW when rounded to one decimal place.

To calculate the efficiency of the wheel, we can use the formula:

Efficiency = (Power output / Power input) × 100

Since the problem states that there are no friction losses in pipe flow, we can assume that the power input is equal to the power output. Therefore, the efficiency can be calculated as:

Efficiency = (979.2 kW / 1999.7 kW) × 100 = 49% (rounded to one decimal place)

An infinitely long wire of uniform density and total mass M can be seen as a one-dimensional object, where the mass density is linearly distributed along its length.

The gravitational field at a distance d above the wire can be found using the equation for the gravitational field of a point mass, but we must integrate over the entire length of the wire to take into account the distribution of mass. This integration can be done using calculus, as follows:

First, let's assume that the wire extends infinitely in both directions along the x-axis, and that its center lies at the origin. Let dx be an infinitesimal element of length along the wire, located at a distance x from the origin. The mass of this element can be found using the density of the wire, which is assumed to be uniform:

dm = λ dx

where λ is the linear mass density of the wire. Since the wire extends infinitely in both directions, we can integrate over the entire length of the wire by letting x go from negative infinity to positive infinity:

M = ∫_{-∞}^{∞} dm = ∫_{-∞}^{∞} λ dx

Since λ is a constant, we can take it out of the integral:

M = λ ∫_{-∞}^{∞} dx

The integral of dx over an infinite range is simply infinity, so we must interpret this equation in a different way. One way to do this is to use the concept of a limit, as follows:

M = lim_{a→∞} ∫_{-a}^{a} λ dx

Now, we can use the equation for the gravitational field of a point mass to find the gravitational field at a distance d above an element of the wire located at x:

d\vec{g} = -G\frac{dm}{r^2}\hat{r}

where r is the distance between the element and the point where the field is being measured, and G is the gravitational constant. Since the wire is infinitely long, we can assume that r is much greater than x or d, so we can use the approximation r ≈ (d^2 + x^2)^(1/2). We can also assume that the wire is very thin compared to d, so we can neglect the component of the gravitational field perpendicular to the wire. Therefore, we only need to consider the x-component of the gravitational field, which is given by:

dg_x = d\vec{g} ⋅ \hat{x} = -G\frac{dm}{r^2}\frac{x}{r}

Substituting r ≈ (d^2 + x^2)^(1/2) and dm = λ dx, we get:

dg_x = -G\frac{λ dx}{(d^2 + x^2)}\frac{x}{(d^2 + x^2)^(1/2)}

Now, we can integrate this expression over the entire length of the wire, as follows:

g_x = ∫_{-∞}^{∞} dg_x

Using the substitution y = x/d, we can write this integral as:

g_x = -G\frac{λ}{d} ∫_{-∞}^{∞} \frac{y dy}{(1 + y^2)^{3/2}}

This integral can be evaluated using a trigonometric substitution, as follows:

y = tan θ

dy = sec^2 θ dθ

(1 + y^2)^(1/2) = sec θ

Substituting these expressions into the integral, we get:

g_x = -G\frac{λ}{d} ∫_{-π/2}^{π/2} \sin θ dθ

This integral evaluates to:

g_x = -2G\frac{λ}{d}

Therefore, the gravitational field a distance d above an infinitely long wire of uniform density and total mass M is:

g = -2G\frac{M}{d}

where M = λL is the total mass of the wire, and L is its length. This result is similar to the gravitational field of a point mass, except that the factor of 2 appears because the wire extends infinitely in both directions.

Fossil fuels are ultimately of solar origin, as they are formed from organic matter that is derived from ancient plants and animals that relied on sunlight for growth.

Hydroelectric power, on the other hand, indirectly relies on solar energy as it is generated by the gravitational potential energy of water, which is driven by the water cycle, which is powered by the Sun. Therefore, hydroelectric power can also be considered of solar origin. All the other listed sources of commercial energy (such as wind, direct solar, nuclear, biomass, and geothermal) can be traced back to solar energy, either directly or indirectly.

Fossil fuels, including coal, oil, gasoline, and natural gas, are formed over millions of years from the remains of plants and animals. These organisms, which lived millions of years ago, obtained their energy through photosynthesis, a process that converts sunlight into chemical energy. Thus, the energy stored in fossil fuels can be traced back to solar energy, making them ultimately of solar origin.

Hydroelectric power, although not directly harnessing solar energy, is still ultimately of solar origin. This is because the water that drives hydroelectric turbines is part of the water cycle, which is powered by the Sun's energy. Solar radiation heats the Earth's surface, causing evaporation of water from oceans, lakes, and rivers. The evaporated water forms clouds and eventually precipitates as rain or snow, leading to the accumulation of water in reservoirs or rivers. The gravitational potential energy of this water is then used to generate hydroelectric power.

All the other listed sources of commercial energy—wind power, direct solar power (such as solar cells and solar water heating), nuclear power, biomass, and geothermal power—are also ultimately dependent on solar energy. Wind is caused by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the Sun, while nuclear power is derived from the fusion reactions occurring in the Sun. Biomass originates from plant materials that rely on sunlight for growth, and geothermal power is a result of the Earth's internal heat, which is partly attributed to the Sun's energy that was absorbed by the Earth during its formation.

In summary, fossil fuels and hydroelectric power are ultimately of solar origin. The other sources of commercial energy listed also have their origins tied to solar energy, either directly or indirectly, through processes such as photosynthesis, the water cycle, wind patterns, nuclear fusion in the Sun, growth of biomass, and the Earth's internal heat.

a)The angular velocity is 0.707 rad/s and the time taken for one full rotation is 8.91 seconds. b) The minimum angular velocity is 0.996 rad/s. It is impossible to achieve a full 90° angle as the tension becomes too great and the rope snaps or the ball detaches from the pole.

a) For calculating the angular velocity of the ball when the rope forms a [tex]45^0[/tex] angle with the pole, use the conservation of angular momentum. The angular momentum is given by

L = Iω,

where L is the angular momentum, I is the moment of inertia, and ω is the angular velocity.

Since the rope is light and inelastic, assume the moment of inertia is negligible. Therefore, need to calculate the angular velocity. The angular momentum is conserved, so can write

[tex]L_{initial} = L_{final}[/tex].

Initially, the ball is at rest, so the initial angular momentum is zero. When the ball starts spinning around the pole, it gains angular momentum. At the 45° angle, the rope forms a right-angled triangle with the pole, and the rope length (1.5 m) acts as the hypotenuse.

Thus, the vertical component of the rope is [tex]1.5sin(45^0)[/tex]. The angular momentum is given by

L = mvr,

where m is the mass of the ball, v is the linear velocity, and r is the distance of the ball from the pole. The linear velocity can be calculated using

v = ωr

where ω is the angular velocity. Therefore,

mvr = m(ωr)r,

which simplifies to

[tex]\omega = v/r = vr/r^2 = v/r[/tex],

as[tex]r^2[/tex] is negligible. Plugging in the values,

[tex]\omega = (1.5sin(45^0))/1.5 = sin(45^0) \approx 0.707 rad/s[/tex].

For calculating the time taken for one full rotation, use the formula

T = 2π/ω, where T is the period and ω is the angular velocity.

Plugging in the value,

[tex]T = 2\pi/0.707 \approx 8.91 seconds[/tex].

b) For calculating the minimum angular velocity required to create an 85° angle between the pole and the rope, use a similar approach. The vertical component of the rope is[tex]1.5sin(85^0)[/tex]. Using the same formula as before,

[tex]\omega = (1.5sin(85^0))/1.5 = sin(85^0) \approx 0.996 rad/s[/tex]

Achieving a full [tex]90^0[/tex] angle between the pole and the rope is impossible due to the tension in the rope. As the rope approaches a [tex]90^0[/tex] angle, the tension in the rope increases significantly, making it extremely difficult to maintain that position. Eventually, the tension becomes too great and the rope snaps or the ball detaches from the pole. Therefore, a [tex]90^0[/tex] angle cannot be achieved in practice.

When P-waves hit the Earth's liquid interior layer, they undergo refraction. The correct option is; undergo refraction.

P-waves are seismic waves that are longitudinal. The P-wave is the fastest kind of wave and can travel through solids and liquids in the Earth's interior. When a P-wave reaches a boundary between two materials, it can be refracted, or bent. When P waves reach the Earth's liquid interior layer, they undergo refraction, which is when a wave's direction is changed because its speed varies based on the density of the material it passes through.

Refraction is when a wave's path is bent as it passes through one material to another with varying densities. Refraction happens when P-waves travel through the liquid core of the Earth because the liquid core has a lower density than the surrounding materials.

Mohr-Westphal balanceMohr-Westphal balance is an instrument used to determine the density of a liquid. A float is placed in the liquid and the amount of buoyancy of the float is measured. This method is based on Archimedes' principle of buoyancy.

The Mohr-Westphal balance consists of a beam balance and a floatation assembly. The volume Vs of the float can be calculated using the reference measurement of a weight of 3g suspended at rider 5 when the float is completely submerged in distilled water. To keep the scales in balance, we can use the formula:

ρwaterVwater = ρfloatV

floatwhere ρwater is the density of water, V water is the volume of the water displaced by the float, ρfloat is the density of the float, and Vfloat is the volume of the float.

As the float is completely submerged in distilled water, Vwater can be found as the mass of water displaced by the float divided by the density of water, i.e.,Vwater = m water/ρ water

where m water is the mass of water displaced by the float.ρwater is 1000 kg/m³ as water is used as a reference measurement. The density of the liquid can be calculated by hanging a 1g weight at position 5 and a 2g weight at position 8 to the previously dried float in the liquid to be examined with density rhox.

The formula used to balance the float is:ρxVxg + 2ρxVxg + ρxVxg = ρfloatVfloatg + 1ρfloatVfloatgwhere ρx is the density of the liquid, Vx is the volume of the liquid displaced by the float, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Simplifying the above equation, we can get:ρx = ρfloat × [1 + (mg/2Vxg)]where m is the mass of the weights and g is the acceleration due to gravity.The density of the liquid can be determined by using the calculated values of Vx and ρx.

An aircraft's lift vector always acts directly opposite its weight in all aspects of flight is true. The weight of an aircraft always acts directly downwards through the center of gravity of the aircraft.

When the aircraft is at rest on the ground, the weight of the aircraft is balanced by the reaction of the ground. During takeoff, the lift generated by the wings of the aircraft counteracts the weight of the aircraft, allowing it to leave the ground. During level flight, the lift vector acts directly opposite the weight vector, allowing the aircraft to maintain its altitude without climbing or descending.

During descent, the lift vector acts at an angle less than 90 degrees to the weight vector, resulting in a descent. Finally, during ascent, the lift vector acts at an angle greater than 90 degrees to the weight vector, resulting in a climb.

Speed is the scalar absolute value (magnitude) of velocity, which is defined in the SI (metric system) as meters per second (m/s or ms1). For instance, "5 meters per second" is a scalar, but "5 meters per second east" is a vector. When an item changes speed, direction, or both, it is said to be accelerating.

The new acceleration of an object traveling at speed V in a circle of radius R/2, after doubling the speed and the radius of the object, is 4a.

The acceleration a of the object moving at speed V in a circle of radius R/2 is given by the formulaa = V^2/R

For the new acceleration, speed and radius are both doubled.

So the new speed and radius will be 2V and R, respectively.

The new acceleration can be calculated as follows:

New acceleration,

a' = (2V)^2

/ R = 4(V^2/R)

= 4a

The new acceleration is 4a.An object moving in a circular path at a constant speed has an acceleration even though its speed is constant.

The change in velocity is due to the change in the direction of motion of the object, which is referred to as centripetal acceleration.

Centripetal acceleration is defined as the acceleration of an object moving in a circular path at a constant speed.

Centripetal acceleration is provided by the force that causes the object to move in a circular path.

The magnitude of centripetal acceleration is given by the equation a = V^2/R, where V is the speed of the object and R is the radius of the circular path.

The force on the bottom of the 1.5 m² pan due to the impacting rain is 265.12 N.

Rain is falling at the rate of 4.5 cm/h and accumulates in a pan.

Part A of the raindrops hit at 7.0 m/s, estimate the force on the bottom of a 1.5 m² pan due to the impacting rain which does not rebound.

Water has a mass of 1.0 x 10⁻³ kg per cm.

The given quantities are

Speed of the raindrops (v) = 7.0 m/s

Area of the pan (A) = 1.5 m²

Density of water (ρ) = 1.0 × 10⁻³ kg per cm³

Therefore, the mass of water per unit volume (m) = 1.0 × 10⁻³ kg per cm³

Force is given by the formula,

F = ma  Here, m = mass of water

                          = volume of water × density of water

                          = A × 4.5 × 10⁴ × 1.0 × 10⁻³

                          = 67.5 kg.

We multiply by 10⁻³ because the density was given per cubic cm but the volume is in cubic meters.

a = acceleration

  = change in velocity/time taken

  = v/t... (1)

Here, time is not given but we know the distance travelled by raindrops is 4.5 cm in one hour,

So, distance travelled in one second is 4.5/3600 = 0.00125 m

Thus, time taken by the raindrop to travel this distance is given by,0.00125 = v/t

=> t = 0.00125/7

       = 0.0001785 s

Substitute the time in equation (1),

a = v/t

  = 7/0.0001785

  = 3.927.

This is the acceleration due to gravity.

Now, we can find the force by substituting the values in the formula,

When a beam of light passes through a medium with an index of refraction, it bends or refracts. The degree of refraction is influenced by the refractive indices of the two media involved and the angle at which the beam hits the surface, among other things.

The angle of incidence, as well as the refractive indices of the water and air, are both specified. The goal is to find the angle of incidence in the water so that the beam refracts into the air and hits the wall as intended. Here’s how to solve it:When a laser pointer beam from underwater refracts into air, it will bend away from the normal because light travels slower in water than in air.

The angle of incidence is the angle at which the light ray strikes the surface of the water. Snell’s law describes the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction and the indices of refraction of the media:

[tex]$$n_{1}\sinθ_{1}=n_{2}\sinθ_{2}$$[/tex]where [tex]$n_{1}$ and $n_{2}$[/tex] are the indices of refraction for the two media, and

[tex]$θ_{1}$ and $θ_{2}$[/tex]are the angles of incidence and refraction, respectively. Because we are searching for the angle of incidence, rearrange Snell’s law to solve for $θ_{1}$ as follows:

[tex]$$θ_{1}=\sin^{-1}\left[\frac{n_{2}}{n_{1}}\sinθ_{2}\right]$$[/tex]Substitute the values given into the formula and solve for

[tex]$θ_{1}$ as follows:$$θ_{1}=\sin^{-1}\left[\frac{1.00}{1.33}\sin(45.0°)\right][/tex]

(a) To find the spring constant, we can use Hooke's Law, which states that the force exerted by a spring is proportional to the displacement from its equilibrium position. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

F = -kx

Where F is the force exerted by the spring, k is the spring constant, and x is the displacement from the equilibrium position.

In this case, the mass is placed on a vertical spring, and it stretches by 10.0 cm (0.10 m). The force exerted by the spring can be calculated using the equation:

F = mg

Where m is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Since the displacement is in the downward direction, the force exerted by the spring is upward and opposing gravity. Therefore, we have:

F = kx

mg = kx

Solving for k, we get:

k = mg/x

Substituting the given values, we have:

m = 0.300 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

x = 0.10 m

k = (0.300 kg)(9.8 m/s²) / 0.10 m

k = 29.4 N/m

Therefore, the spring constant is 29.4 N/m.

(b) The angular frequency (ω) of the system can be calculated using the formula:

ω = √(k/m)

Where k is the spring constant and m is the mass.

Substituting the given values, we have:

k = 29.4 N/m

m = 0.300 kg

ω = √(29.4 N/m / 0.300 kg)

ω ≈ 8.11 rad/s

Therefore, the angular frequency is approximately 8.11 rad/s.

(c) The frequency (f) of the system can be calculated using the formula:

f = ω / (2π)

Substituting the value of ω from part (b), we have:

ω ≈ 8.11 rad/s

f = 8.11 rad/s / (2π)

f ≈ 1.29 Hz

Therefore, the frequency is approximately 1.29 Hz.

(d) The period (T) of the system can be calculated as the reciprocal of the frequency:

T = 1 / f

Substituting the value of f from part (c), we have:

f ≈ 1.29 Hz

T = 1 / 1.29 Hz

T ≈ 0.775 s

Therefore, the period is approximately 0.775 s.

(e) The maximum velocity of the vibrating mass can be determined using the equation:

v_max = Aω

Where A is the amplitude of the motion (maximum displacement) and ω is the angular frequency.

In this case, the amplitude A is the additional 5.00 cm (0.05 m) that the mass is pulled down. Substituting the values:

A = 0.05 m

ω ≈ 8.11 rad/s

v_max = (0.05 m) × 8.11 rad/s

v_max ≈ 0.4055 m/s

Therefore, the maximum velocity of the vibrating mass is approximately 0.4055 m/s.

(f) The maximum acceleration of the mass can be determined using the equation:

a_max = Aω²

Where A is the amplitude of the motion (maximum displacement) and ω is the angular frequency.

Substituting the values:

A = 0.05 m

ω ≈ 8.11 rad/s

a_max = (0.05 m) × (8.11 rad/s)²

a_max ≈ 3.293 m/s²

Therefore, the maximum acceleration of the mass is approximately 3.293 m/s².

(g) The maximum restoring force exerted by the spring can be calculated using Hooke's Law:

F_max = kA

Where k is the spring constant and A is the amplitude of the motion (maximum displacement).

Substituting the values:

k = 29.4 N/m

A = 0.05 m

F_max = (29.4 N/m) × (0.05 m)

F_max = 1.47 N

Therefore, the maximum restoring force exerted by the spring is 1.47 N.

(h) To find the velocity of the mass at x = 2.00 cm (0.02 m), we can use the equation:

v = ω√(A² - x²)

Where A is the amplitude of the motion (maximum displacement), ω is the angular frequency, and x is the displacement from the equilibrium position.

Substituting the values:

A = 0.05 m

ω ≈ 8.11 rad/s

x = 0.02 m

v = (8.11 rad/s) √((0.05 m)² - (0.02 m)²)

v ≈ 0.391 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the mass at x = 2.00 cm is approximately 0.391 m/s.

f = 1/T.

T = 2π/20 rad/s = π/10 s ≈ 0.314 s.

Xm = 0.020 m.

(b) Vmax = (20 rad/s) * (0.020 m) = 0.4 m/s.

The maximum acceleration (amax) of the oscillating block occurs at the extremes of the oscillation, where the block changes direction. The maximum acceleration can be calculated using the formula amax = ω^2Xm, where ω is the angular frequency and Xm is the amplitude. Plugging in the values, we have:

amax = (20 rad/s)^2 * (0.020 m) = 8 m/s^2.

(c) When the block is halfway from its initial position to the equilibrium position (x = 0), the displacement is Xm/2 = 0.020 m / 2 = 0.010 m.

ax = -(20 rad/s)^2 * (0.020 m) * sin(0) = 0 m/s^2.

Therefore, when the block is halfway from its initial position to the equilibrium position, the velocity (vx) is 0.4 m/s and the acceleration (ax) is 0 m/s^2.

The propagation delay added by a 40 TECu ionosphere is 16.8 ms.GPS (Global Positioning System) is a satellite-based navigation system that uses radio signals to transmit position data to a GPS receiver. GPS was created and developed by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) and has been operational since the early 1990s. Total Electron Content Unit (TECu) is a measure of the amount of electrons present in a column of the ionosphere above a 1 square meter area. It is commonly used to quantify the amount of ionospheric delay experienced by Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals/. In a vacuum, the signal from a GPS satellite would take 67 milliseconds (ms) to propagate to the ground. This time includes the distance that the signal must travel from the satellite to the ground (approximately 20,200 km) as well as the speed of light propagation (299,792,458 meters per second). TECu is proportional to the amount of ionospheric delay experienced by GNSS signals. The ionospheric delay is proportional to the square of the frequency and the TEC along the path.

The machinist should be careful not to cool the rod too much, as this could cause it to become brittle and difficult to work with.

The diameter of the rod is 6 mm. The diameter of the hole is 5.995 mm. The diameter of the rod is greater than the diameter of the hole by 0.005 mm.

To calculate the change in temperature needed to fit the rod into the hole, use the formula:

ΔL = αLΔT

where ΔL = change in length of the rodα

                = coefficient of linear expansion

L = length of the rod

ΔT = change in temperature

Rearranging this equation gives:

ΔT = ΔL / (αL)

The change in length needed to fit the rod into the hole is half the difference in diameters

ΔL = (diameter of the rod - diameter of the hole) / 2

     = (6 - 5.995) / 2

     = 0.0025 mm

Substituting into the formula above:

ΔT = (0.0025 x 10^-3 m) / (11 x 10^-6 K^-1 x 1 m)

≈ 0.23 °C

Therefore, the machinist would have to lower the temperature of the iron rod by approximately 0.23 °C to make it fit the hole.

This change is relatively small, so the machinist may be able to achieve it by cooling the rod in a refrigerator or freezer for a short period of time.

where F is the electric force,

k is Coulomb's constant

[tex](9.0 x 10^9 N m^2/C^2),[/tex]

q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects, and r is the distance between them.

Given values:[tex]F = 1.8 x 10^8 N, q1 = 1.6 x 10^-5 C, q2 = 1.2 x 10^-5 C.[/tex]

We can rearrange the formula to solve for r:

[tex]r^2 = k * (|q1| * |q2|) / F[/tex]

Substituting the values, we have:

[tex]r^2 = (9.0 x 10^9 N m^2/C^2) * (1.6 x 10^-5 C) * (1.2 x 10^-5 C) / (1.8 x 10^8 N)[/tex]

Simplifying the expression:

[tex]r^2 = (9.0 x 10^9 x 1.6 x 1.2) / (1.8 x 10^8) = 1.44 x 10^3[/tex]

Taking the square root of both sides:

[tex]r = sqrt(1.44 x 10^3) = 1.2 x 10^1 = 12 m[/tex]

a. The dimensions that minimize weight, the base length should be equal to one-eighth of the height.

b. We can achieve a design that minimizes the weight of the tank while still meeting the required specifications.

To find the dimensions that will make the tank weigh as little as possible, we need to consider the relationship between the dimensions, surface area, and volume of the tank. A smaller surface area would require fewer stainless steel plates, reducing the weight of the tank. Additionally, minimizing the height would decrease the volume, resulting in less steel needed overall.

a. To determine the dimensions that minimize weight, we can start by considering a square base for the tank. Let's assume the base has sides of length x. In this case, the surface area of each of the four sides of the tank would be 500 ft² (since the total surface area is 4 times the base area).

Using the formula for the surface area of a rectangular tank:

Surface Area = 2lh + lw + lh

For our square base tank, this simplifies to:

Surface Area = 4x² + xh

To minimize weight, we want to minimize the surface area. Taking the derivative of the surface area with respect to x, we can find the critical points. Differentiating the equation with respect to x yields:

d(Surface Area)/dx = 8x + h

Setting this derivative equal to zero and solving for x, we get:

8x + h = 0

x = -h/8

Since both x and h should be positive (as they represent lengths), we can conclude that x = h/8.

Therefore, for the dimensions that minimize weight, the base length should be equal to one-eighth of the height.

b. To take weight into account, we considered the relationship between surface area, volume, and weight. By minimizing the surface area, we reduce the amount of stainless steel required to construct the tank, thereby reducing its weight. Additionally, minimizing the height of the tank decreases its volume, which further reduces the weight by reducing the amount of steel needed.

By optimizing the dimensions based on these considerations, we can achieve a design that minimizes the weight of the tank while still meeting the required specifications.
