Chapter 1, Problem 8P

For the following machine and given dimensions, find the support reaction at A and D, knowing P is 800 N. Neglect weight of the machine itself. P a a b с d b Variable Radius of pulley B Radius of pulley C Values [m] 2.5 1.5 3 2.5 0.75 0.5

A commonly used unit in everyday language to state weight is the pound (lb). There are actually several formal definitions of pound. One classification system defines a pound-mass (analogous to kg in SI units) and a pound-force (lbf) (analogous to a Newton); this is formally called English Engineering units but also commonly used in US Customary System units. The “pound” in the “pounds per square inch” of psi refers to pound-force. Hence, psi has units of force per area. Note that 1 lbf is defined as the gravitational force generated by 1 lb (mass) by multiplying it by the standard gravitational acceleration at the earth’s surface. Starting with just the two everyday conversion approximations every Canadian should know (1.00 kg ≈ 2.20 lb (mass) and 1.00 inch ≈ 2.54 cm), derive an approximation of 1.00 psi in Pa through unit conversions only (show each step).

Determine the absolute value of the force at point O in [N] ? m = 30 kg F=422 N w = 8 rad/s

The Ideal gas law shows the relationship between some common properties of ideal gases and is written as PV = nRT. P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles of ideal Gas, R = General gas constant = 8.314 kJ/(kmol.K) and T = absolute temperature. 5 mol ideal gas at 22°C is placed in a cube with edge lengths of 0.750 meters. Calculate the pressure of the Ideal gas as [Pa].

Please do this carefully.

Question 2.8: Compressed air is commonly used to power a large variety of power tools. Lowe's sells an air compressor that can fill an 8-gallon tank to 160 psi. At a temperature of 70°F, determine the mass of the air inside a full 8-gallon tank. Let Patm = 14.7 psi. a) Use the ideal gas law (you will need to do a lot of unit conversions for this). [0.429 kg] b) Find the compressibility factor. How far off is your analysis above? [0.99]

Im struggling to understand what forces to use

Some scientists believe that the collision of one or more large asteroids with the Earth was responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs. The unit of kiloton is used to describe the energy released during large explosions. It was originally defined as the explosive capability of 1000 tons of trinitrotoluene (TNT) high explosive. Because that expression can be imprecise depending on the explosive's exact chemical composition, the kiloton subsequently has been redefined as the equivalent of 4.186 x 1012 J. In the units of kiloton, calculate the kinetic energy of an asteroid that has the size (box-shaped, 13 x 13 x 25 km) and composition (density, 2.4 g/cm) of an asteroid. Kinetic energy is defined by U. = mv? where m is the object's mass and v is its speed. Objects passing through the inner solar system generally have speeds in the range of 20 km/s. (Express your answer using two significant figures.) Uk = x1011 kilotons

A prismatic object 8 inches thick by 8 inches wide by 16 inches long is weighed in water at a depth of 20 inches and found to weigh 11 lb. What is the weight in air and its specific gravity in English units?
