The total mass of the Baja car and driver, including the wheels, is 250 kg. Each pair of 58-cm radius wheels and the axle has a total mass of 20 kg and a mass moment of inertia of 2.9 kg·m2. The center of gravity of the driver and Baja body (not including the wheels) is located x = 0.70 m from the rear axle A and y = 0.55 m from the ground. The wheelbase is L = 1.60 m. If the engine exerts a torque of 500 N·m on the rear axle, what is the car’s acceleration?

Do this for two values of Q: (a) Q = 0.3, and (b) Q= √(0.5 + 2x)e-sinx (cos(5x)+x-0.5√1.006-x| + e −43*|1+.001+x* | * sin (1.5 − x) + (cosx+0.001 + ex-1250+ sin (1-0.9x)|) * x - 4.68x4. For Case (a) (that is, Q = 0.3), use the stencil in Fig. 1. For Case (b), calculate with both the stencils in Fig. 1 and Fig 2. For all the three cases, show a table as well as a plot of O versus x.

For an inlet area of 800 cm2, determine the velocity and the volume flow rate of the steam at the nozzle exit. Use steam tables. The velocity of the steam at the nozzle exit is m/s. The volume flow rate of the steam at the nozzle exit is m3/s.arrow_forward
