Chapter 13.1, Problem 13.2P
A 0.5-lb stone is dropped down the “bottomless pit” at Carlsbad Caverns and strikes the ground with a speed of 95 ft/s. Neglecting air resistance, determine (a) the kinetic energy of the stone as it strikes the ground and the height h from which it was dropped. (b) Solve part a assuming that the same stone is dropped down a hole on the moon. (Acceleration of gravity on the moon = 5.31 ft/s2.)

The single degree of freedom (SDOF) system that you studied under free vibration in Assignment #3 - Laboratory Component has been subjected to a strong ground motion. The acceleration at the base (excitation) and the acceleration at the roof (response) of the SDOF system was recorded with sampling rate 50 Hz (50 samples per second, or dt= 0.02 seconds). The file ElCentro.txt includes the two columns of acceleration data. The first column lists the acceleration at the base of the SDOF system. The second column lists the acceleration at the roof of the SDOF system. (a) Plot the time histories of the recorded accelerations at the base and at the roof of the SDOF system. (b) Compute the acceleration, velocity and displacement time histories of the roof of the SDOF system subjected to the recorded base acceleration using the Central Difference method. Plot the accel- eration, velocity and displacement time histories. Plot the restoring force, the damping force, and the inertia force time…

The heat sink has seven fins, which are 5 mm high, 2mm thick, and 10 cm long. A fan blows air at 25 degrees C parallel to the passages between the fins. The heat sink is to dissipate 12W of heat, and the base temp of the ehat sink is not to exceed 60 degrees C. Assuming the fins and the base plate to be nearly isothermal and the radiation heat transfer to be negligible, determine the minimum free-stream velocity the fan needs to supply to avoid overheating. Assume the flow is laminar over the entire finned surface of the transformer.arrow_forwardI need a mechanical engineering expert to solve this question,no Ai pleasearrow_forward
