Answer to Problem 1RQ

The suitable terms for the blanks in the statement. "Matter is a substance that occupies space and has mass."

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Matter defines as the substance that has mass and occupies the volume in space.

Any substance atoms and molecules which are held by the bond force.

The substances has mass due to presence of atoms and molecules.

Matter exists in commonly three different forms solid, liquid and gas.

The mass less particles cannot be termed as matter because it violates the definition of matter.

The mass less particles are like photons, sound waves, light waves and many more.

The photons are the quantum of energy which travels in vacuum.

Conclusion:

Can you give me the meaning of Combination spanner and Give Examples of Spanners
HW8 A shaft fitted with a flywheel rotates at 650 r.p.m. and drives a machine. The torque of machine varies in a cyclic manner over a period of 2 revolutions. The torque rises from 650 N-m to 2200 N-m uniformly during 110° and remains constant for the following 270°. It then falls uniformly to 600 N-m during the next 100° and remains constant for the end cycle, the cycle being repeated thereafter. Determine the power required to drive the machine and percentage fluctuation in speed, if the driving torque applied to the shaft is constant and the mass of the flywheel is 180 kg with radius of gyration of 35 cm.
