Buoyancy is the ability of an object to float. Archimedes’ principle states that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid that is displaced by the submerged object. The buoyant force can be computed by
F b=V× y
where Fb is the buoyant force, V is the volume of the submerged object, and y is the specific weight of the fluid. If Fb is greater than or equal to the weight of the object, then it will float, otherwise it will sink.

- (Conversion) An object’s polar moment of inertia, J, represents its resistance to twisting. For a cylinder, this moment of inertia is given by this formula: J=mr2/2+m( l 2 +3r 2 )/12misthecylindersmass( kg).listhecylinderslength(m).risthecylindersradius(m). Using this formula, determine the units for the cylinder’s polar moment of inertia.arrow_forward(Thermodynamics) The work, W, performed by a single piston in an engine can be determined by this formula: W=Fd F is the force provided by the piston in Newtons. d is the distance the piston moves in meters. a. Determine the units of W by calculating the units resulting from the right side of the formula. Check that your answer corresponds to the units for work listed in Table 1.1. b. Determine the work performed by a piston that provides a force of 1000 N over a distance of 15 centimeters.arrow_forward(Mechanics) The deflection at any point along the centerline of a cantilevered beam, such as the one used for a balcony (see Figure 5.15), when a load is distributed evenly along the beam is given by this formula: d=wx224EI(x2+6l24lx) d is the deflection at location x (ft). xisthedistancefromthesecuredend( ft).wistheweightplacedattheendofthebeam( lbs/ft).listhebeamlength( ft). Eisthemodulesofelasticity( lbs/f t 2 ).Iisthesecondmomentofinertia( f t 4 ). For the beam shown in Figure 5.15, the second moment of inertia is determined as follows: l=bh312 b is the beam’s base. h is the beam’s height. Using these formulas, write, compile, and run a C++ program that determines and displays a table of the deflection for a cantilevered pine beam at half-foot increments along its length, using the following data: w=200lbs/ftl=3ftE=187.2106lb/ft2b=.2fth=.3ftarrow_forward
- The electric flux density D at the point M (0,4,0) in the region about a uniform line charge of 1 nC/m lying along the z axis in free space is: Select one: a.

The position of an object moving along the z-axis is described by *(t) = 21²-t +4, where the position, z, is in m and the time, t, is in s. Find: a. the average velocity between t = 1 8 and ty= 3 s. b. the velocity at t = 2 s. b. the acceleration at t = 4 s.arrow_forwardMatlab Programmingarrow_forward
- The Harris-Benedict equation estimates the number of calories your body needs to maintain your weight if you do no exercise. This is called your basal metabolic rate, or BMR. The calories needed for a woman to maintain her weight is: WBMR = 655 + (4.3 × weight in pounds) + (4.7 × height in inches) − (4.7× age in years) The calories needed for a man to maintain his weight is: MBMR = 66 + (6.3 × weight in pounds) + (12.9 × height in inches) − (6.8 × age in years) A typical chocolate bar will contain around 230 calories. Write a java program that allows the user to input his or her weight in pounds, height in inches, and age in years. The program should then output the number of chocolate bars that should be consumed to maintain one’s weight for both a woman and a man of the input weight, height, and age. NOTE: This is an application of a selection statement! Input Data: Use a named constant for the number of calories in a “typical chocolate bar.” Use Scanner methods to enter the…arrow_forwardDiscrete Structures or Discrete Mathematicsarrow_forwardMatlabarrow_forward
