Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

(a) 22 kN

(b) 36 kN, 29 kN

(d) 43 kN

Explanation:

(a) When the truck is off the bridge, there are 3 forces on the bridge.

Reaction force F₁ pushing up at the first support,

reaction force F₂ pushing up at the second support,

and weight force Mg pulling down at the middle of the bridge.

Sum the torques about the second support. (Remember that the magnitude of torque is force times the perpendicular distance. Take counterclockwise to be positive.)

∑τ = Iα

(Mg) (0.3 L) − F₁ (0.6 L) = 0

F₁ (0.6 L) = (Mg) (0.3 L)

F₁ = ½ Mg

F₁ = ½ (44.0 kN)

F₁ = 22.0 kN

(b) This time, we have the added force of the truck's weight.

Using the same logic as part (a), we sum the torques about the second support:

∑τ = Iα

(Mg) (0.3 L) + (mg) (0.4 L) − F₁ (0.6 L) = 0

F₁ (0.6 L) = (Mg) (0.3 L) + (mg) (0.4 L)

F₁ = ½ Mg + ⅔ mg

F₁ = ½ (44.0 kN) + ⅔ (21.0 kN)

F₁ = 36.0 kN

Now sum the torques about the first support:

∑τ = Iα

-(Mg) (0.3 L) − (mg) (0.2 L) + F₂ (0.6 L) = 0

F₂ (0.6 L) = (Mg) (0.3 L) + (mg) (0.2 L)

F₂ = ½ Mg + ⅓ mg

F₂ = ½ (44.0 kN) + ⅓ (21.0 kN)

F₂ = 29.0 kN

Alternatively, sum the forces in the y direction.

∑F = ma

F₁ + F₂ − Mg − mg = 0

F₂ = Mg + mg − F₁

F₂ = 44.0 kN + 21.0 kN − 36.0 kN

F₂ = 29.0 kN

F₁ (0.6 L) = (Mg) (0.3 L) + (mg) (0.6 L − x)

F₂ (0.6 L) = (Mg) (0.3 L) + (mg) (x)

As x increases, F₁ decreases and F₂ increases.

(d) Using our equation from part (c), when x = 0.6 L, F₂ is:

F₂ (0.6 L) = (Mg) (0.3 L) + (mg) (0.6 L)

F₂ = ½ Mg + mg

F₂ = ½ (44.0 kN) + 21.0 kN

F₂ = 43.0 kN

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer:

a. Left support = Right support = 22 kN

b. Left support = 36 kN

Right support = 29 kN

c. Left support force will decrease

Right support force will increase.

d. Right support = 43 kN

Explanation:

given:

weight of bridge = 44 kN

weight of truck = 21 kN

a) truck is off the bridge

since the bridge is symmetrical, left support is equal to right support.

Left support = Right support = 44/2

Left support = Right support = 22 kN

b) truck is positioned as shown.

to get the reaction at left support, take moment from right support = 0

∑M at Right support = 0

Left support (0.6) - weight of bridge (0.3) - weight of truck (0.4) = 0

Left support = 44 (0.3) + 21 (0.4)

0.6

Left support = 36 kN

Right support = weight of bridge + weight of truck - Left support

Right support = 44 + 21 - 36

Right support = 29 kN

as the truck continues to drive to the right, Left support will decrease

as the truck get closer to the right support, Right support will increase.

d) truck is directly under the right support, find reaction at Right support?

∑M at Left support = 0

Right support (0.6) - weight of bridge (0.3) - weight of truck (0.6) = 0

Right support = 44 (0.3) + 21 (0.6)

0.6

Right support = 43 kN

Answer:

Uses of concave mirror:

Shaving mirrors.

Head mirrors.

Ophthalmoscope.

Astronomical telescopes.

Headlights.

Solar furnaces.

Uses of convex mirror:

Convex mirrors always form images that are upright, virtual, and smaller than the actual object. They are commonly used as rear and side view mirrors in cars and as security mirrors in public buildings because they allow you to see a wider view than flat or concave mirrors.

A bag of potato chips contains 2.00 L of air when it is sealed at sea level at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0°C. What will be the volume of the air in the bag if you take it with you, still sealed, to the mountains where the temperature is 7.00°C and atmospheric pressure is 70.0 kPa

Answers

The volume of the air in the bag of potato chips to the mountains which is still sealed, 2.766 liters.

What is the gas law?

The gas law is used to show the relationship between the pressure and the temperature of the gases. It can be given as,

$PV=nrT$

Here, (n) and (r) are the constant. Therefore,

$(PV)/(T)=\rm Constant$

For the initial and final values, the gas law can be given as,

$(P_1V_1)/(T_1)=(P_2V_2)/(T_2)$

Here, (subscript 1,and 2) is used for the initial and final amount of pressure and temperature.

The initial values of the bag of potato chips as volume of 2.00 L, pressure of 1.00 ATM and a temperature of 20.0°C. It is known that the value of 1 ATM is equal to the 101.325 kPa.

The final temperature of the pack is 7.00°C and atmospheric pressure is 70.0 kPa

Put the values in the above formula as,

$(101.325*2)/(293)=(70* V_2)/(280)\nV_2=2.766\rm \; liters$
