A structural engineer is evaluating two submerged sensor housings within a continuous freshwater facility. Housing X is mounted at the bottom of a narrow vertical standpipe, exactly 12 meters12\text{ meters} below the water's surface. Housing Y is mounted on the open floor of the main reservoir, also exactly 12 meters12\text{ meters} below the water's surface. Both locations share the same body of water. Which of the following statements correctly compares the hydrostatic pressure acting on the two housings?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The hydrostatic pressure is equal on both housings because they are situated at the identical vertical depth.

Cevap

The hydrostatic pressure is equal on both housings because they are situated at the identical vertical depth.
The correct answer accurately states that hydrostatic pressure depends only on fluid depth. Because both housings are situated exactly 12 meters12\text{ meters} below the surface of the same continuous body of water, the pressure exerted upon them is identical, regardless of the surrounding container geometry.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the factors that determine hydrostatic pressure.
Hydrostatic pressure (PP) depends on fluid density (ρ\rho), gravity (gg), and vertical depth (hh) according to the formula P=ρ⋅g⋅hP = \rho \cdot g \cdot h.
This establishes the physical law governing the scenario.
2
Evaluate the fluid conditions for both housings.
Both housings are in the same continuous freshwater system, meaning the fluid density (ρ\rho) is identical.
Eliminates fluid density as a variable between the two locations.
3
Compare the depth (hh) and container shapes for both housings.
Housing X is in a narrow pipe at a 12 m12\text{ m} depth, and Housing Y is in a wide reservoir at a 12 m12\text{ m} depth. Container width and total fluid volume are not variables in the hydrostatic pressure formula.
Demonstrates that despite the drastically different container shapes, the equal depth guarantees equal pressure.

Anahtar Kavram

Hydrostatic pressure relies strictly on the vertical depth and density of the fluid, and is completely unaffected by the shape of the container or the total volume of the fluid.

Cevap: 7,920

Cevap

7,920
The problem requires finding the distance in feet, given a speed in miles per hour and time in seconds. First, convert the speed to feet per second. Since there are 5,280 feet5,280 \text{ feet} in a mile, 120 miles per hour120 \text{ miles per hour} is 120×5,280=633,600 feet per hour120 \times 5,280 = 633,600 \text{ feet per hour}. Since there are 3,600 seconds3,600 \text{ seconds} in an hour, the speed is 633,600÷3,600=176 feet per second633,600 \div 3,600 = 176 \text{ feet per second}. Finally, multiply this rate by the time of 45 seconds45 \text{ seconds} to get the distance: 176×45=7,920 feet176 \times 45 = 7,920 \text{ feet}.

Cevap: 23

Cevap

23.0
The correct answer is derived by first converting the time from minutes to seconds (1.5 min=90 s1.5 \text{ min} = 90 \text{ s}), calculating the total change in velocity (0.2×90=18.0 m/s0.2 \times 90 = 18.0 \text{ m/s}), and then adding that change to the initial cruising velocity (5.0+18.0=23.0 m/s5.0 + 18.0 = 23.0 \text{ m/s}).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Extract and convert the time variable into seconds.
t=1.5 minutes×60 seconds/minute=90 secondst = 1.5 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 90 \text{ seconds}
Acceleration is given in meters per second squared (m/s2\text{m/s}^2), so time must be in seconds to ensure unit consistency.
2
Calculate the total change in velocity during the acceleration phase.
Δv=a×t=0.2 m/s2×90 s=18.0 m/s\Delta v = a \times t = 0.2 \text{ m/s}^2 \times 90 \text{ s} = 18.0 \text{ m/s}
The change in velocity is the product of the constant acceleration and the duration of that acceleration.
3
Add the change in velocity to the initial velocity.
vf=vi+Δv=5.0 m/s+18.0 m/s=23.0 m/sv_f = v_i + \Delta v = 5.0 \text{ m/s} + 18.0 \text{ m/s} = 23.0 \text{ m/s}
The final velocity is the starting velocity plus the amount the velocity increased.

A worker uses a hand-operated winch to vertically lift a bundle of materials weighing 300 pounds300 \text{ pounds}. The winch is driven by a crank handle that has a length of 15 inches15 \text{ inches} from its center of rotation. The cable lifting the load wraps around a drum with a diameter of 5 inches5 \text{ inches}.

Assuming a 100%100\% efficient system, what is the theoretical effort force required on the crank handle to lift the bundle?

Cevap: 50

Cevap

50
The system operates as a wheel and axle where the crank handle is the wheel and the drum is the axle. By finding the ratio of their radii (15 inches15 \text{ inches} to 2.5 inches2.5 \text{ inches}), we determine that the mechanical advantage is 66. This means the effort force required is one-sixth of the total load, yielding 50 pounds50 \text{ pounds}.

1
Determine the effective radius of both the wheel and the axle.
Wheel radius = 15 inches15 \text{ inches}. Axle radius = 5 inches÷2=2.5 inches5 \text{ inches} \div 2 = 2.5 \text{ inches}.
The formula for mechanical advantage requires consistent measurements, typically the radius of each component.
2
Calculate the Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) of the system.
IMA=152.5=6IMA = \frac{15}{2.5} = 6.
The IMA indicates how many times the simple machine multiplies the input effort force.
3
Calculate the theoretical effort force required.
Feffort=3006=50 poundsF_{effort} = \frac{300}{6} = 50 \text{ pounds}.
In a frictionless (100%100\% efficient) system, the effort force is equal to the load force divided by the mechanical advantage.

A dump truck bed pivots on a rear hinge, which acts as the fulcrum. A hydraulic cylinder provides the upward effort force and is attached to the bed 2 ft2\text{ ft} from the rear hinge. The center of gravity of the loaded bed is located 6 ft6\text{ ft} from the rear hinge. If the total weight of the loaded bed is 12,000 lbs12,000\text{ lbs}, what is the minimum purely vertical force the hydraulic cylinder must apply to begin lifting the horizontally resting bed?

Cevap: 36,000 lbs36,000 \text{ lbs}

Cevap

The minimum purely vertical force the hydraulic cylinder must apply is 36,000 lbs36,000 \text{ lbs}.
In this 3rd class lever, the effort arm (2 ft2\text{ ft}) is significantly shorter than the load arm (6 ft6\text{ ft}). To balance the torque created by the 12,000 lbs12,000\text{ lbs} load (12,000×6=72,000 ft-lbs12,000 \times 6 = 72,000\text{ ft-lbs}), the hydraulic cylinder must apply a proportionally larger force of 36,000 lbs36,000\text{ lbs} at its 2 ft2\text{ ft} distance (36,000×2=72,00036,000 \times 2 = 72,000).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the lever class and the pivot point.
The rear hinge is the fulcrum. The hydraulic cylinder provides the effort between the fulcrum and the load, making this a 3rd class lever.
To correctly apply the principles of torque, the locations of the effort and load relative to the fulcrum must be established.
2
Calculate the torque exerted by the loaded bed.
12,000 lbs×6 ft=72,000 ft-lbs12,000 \text{ lbs} \times 6 \text{ ft} = 72,000 \text{ ft-lbs}.
Torque is equal to force multiplied by the distance from the fulcrum.
3
Set up the torque balance equation for the effort force (FeF_e).
Fe×2 ft=72,000 ft-lbsF_e \times 2 \text{ ft} = 72,000 \text{ ft-lbs}.
To begin lifting the bed, the effort torque must be equal to the load torque.
4
Solve the equation for the effort force.
Fe=36,000 lbsF_e = 36,000 \text{ lbs}.
Dividing both sides by 2 ft2 \text{ ft} isolates the required force.

A maintenance crew is inspecting a closed, static water pipeline fed by a mountain reservoir. They monitor static pressure sensors located at different points along the pipeline's path.

Arrange the following sensor locations in order from the LOWEST hydrostatic pressure to the HIGHEST hydrostatic pressure.

Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct order from lowest to highest pressure is: the surface sensor (0 feet), the sensor in the 24-inch pipe (30 feet), the sensor in the 12-inch pipe (60 feet), and the sensor at the bend (90 feet).
Hydrostatic pressure in a continuous, static fluid is directly proportional to its vertical depth below the free surface (P=ρghP = \rho g h). Factors like pipe diameter, pipe orientation, or the total volume of fluid in a specific section do not influence the pressure at a specific point. Therefore, ranking from lowest to highest pressure simply requires ordering the depths from shallowest to deepest: 0 feet, 30 feet, 60 feet, and finally 90 feet.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the principle governing hydrostatic pressure in a static fluid.
Hydrostatic pressure is determined by the formula P=ρghP = \rho g h, where hh is the vertical depth from the free surface of the fluid.
Establishing the core rule is necessary to evaluate which variables provided in the scenario actually affect the pressure.
2
Evaluate the effect of pipe diameter and shape on the pressure.
The 12-inch diameter, 24-inch diameter, and horizontal pipe bend do not affect static pressure.
According to Pascal's principle and fluid statics, pressure at a given depth is independent of the container's volume, shape, or width.
3
Rank the locations based solely on their vertical depth below the reservoir surface.
Surface (0 ft) < 30 ft < 60 ft < 90 ft.
Since vertical depth is the only changing variable that affects the pressure, the ranking strictly follows the depth from shallowest to deepest.

Anahtar Kavram

Hydrostatic pressure in a continuous fluid depends exclusively on fluid density, gravity, and vertical depth, remaining entirely independent of the container's volume or shape.

To find the total distance traveled in miles, unit conversions must be applied to align the given measurements. The speed is given in feet per minute, but the time is in hours and the requested distance is in miles. First, multiply the speed by 60 to convert it to feet per hour (44×60=2,640 feet per hour44 \times 60 = 2,640 \text{ feet per hour}). Next, convert this speed into miles per hour by dividing by the number of feet in a mile (2,640÷5,280=0.5 miles per hour2,640 \div 5,280 = 0.5 \text{ miles per hour}). Finally, multiply this speed by the total time (0.5 mph×10 hours0.5 \text{ mph} \times 10 \text{ hours}) to find that the package travels a total distance of 5 miles.

A hydroelectric dam holds back a massive artificial lake. Along the submerged face of the dam, there is a small diagnostic sensor port and a massive turbine water intake. Both the sensor port and the center of the turbine intake are located exactly 45 meters45\text{ meters} below the surface of the lake. The diameter of the turbine intake is twenty times larger than the diagnostic port. When the water in the lake is perfectly still, how does the hydrostatic pressure at the diagnostic port compare to the pressure at the center of the turbine intake?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The pressure is identical at both locations because they are positioned at the exact same depth.

Cevap

The pressure is identical at both locations because they are positioned at the exact same depth.
Hydrostatic pressure in a static fluid is calculated using the formula P=ρghP = \rho g h (Pressure = density × gravity × depth). Because both the diagnostic port and the center of the turbine intake are located exactly 45 meters45\text{ meters} below the surface, they experience the exact same water pressure. The size, diameter, or area of the opening affects the total force exerted on that opening, but it does not change the pressure, which is a measure of force per unit area.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the factors that determine hydrostatic pressure in a static fluid.
Hydrostatic pressure (PP) is determined by the formula P=ρghP = \rho g h, where ρ\rho is fluid density, gg is gravity, and hh is depth.
This establishes the physical rule governing the scenario, showing that only depth matters when the fluid is consistent.
2
Compare the depth of the two locations provided in the scenario.
Both the diagnostic port and the turbine intake center are located at a depth of 45 meters45\text{ meters}.
Since the hh value is identical for both locations, the pressure calculated from P=ρghP = \rho g h will be equal.
3
Evaluate the effect of the opening sizes on the hydrostatic pressure.
The diameter of the openings has no effect on the hydrostatic pressure, though it does affect the total force (F=P×AF = P \times A).
It separates the concept of pressure (force per unit area) from the concept of total force, confirming that the pressure remains identical.

Anahtar Kavram

Hydrostatic pressure in a liquid depends only on the depth of the liquid and its density, and is entirely independent of the shape or size of the container or opening.

Cevap

Manual Screwdriver matches 'Wheel = Outer wide grip; Axle = Narrow metal shaft'. Bicycle Rear Wheel Assembly matches 'Wheel = Outer tire and rim; Axle = Central toothed gear'. Hand-cranked Water Well matches 'Wheel = Circular path traced by the handle; Axle = Central drum'. Ceiling Fan matches 'Wheel = Extended rotating blades; Axle = Central motorized spindle'.
Each mechanism is correctly categorized by identifying the component with the larger rotational diameter as the wheel and the smaller central component as the axle, accurately reflecting how they transmit rotational force and speed.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Define the physical characteristics of a wheel and axle system.
The 'wheel' is always the component or path with the larger radius, and the 'axle' is the rigidly attached component with the smaller radius.
Establishing the definitions allows us to look past the physical shape of the object and focus on its mechanical function.
2
Analyze tools designed to multiply force (Screwdriver and Windlass).
In these tools, effort is applied to the larger radius (the wide grip or the crank's path) to turn the smaller radius (the shaft or the drum) with greater force.
Identifying where the effort is applied helps determine which part acts as the wheel.
3
Analyze mechanisms designed to multiply speed or distance (Bicycle and Ceiling Fan).
In these systems, effort is applied to the smaller central radius (the sprocket or the motor spindle), which forces the larger radius (the tire or the blades) to spin faster and cover more distance.
This confirms the axle is driving the wheel in these specific applications.

Anahtar Kavram

In a wheel and axle simple machine, the 'wheel' is the component with the larger diameter, and the 'axle' is the connected component with the smaller diameter. A wheel does not have to be a solid disk; it can be a crank path or fan blades.

Calculate the total distance for the round trip.
150 miles * 2 = 300 miles
The bus travels to the destination and returns, meaning the one-way distance must be doubled.
2
Determine the total fuel consumed during the entire trip.
300 miles / 12 miles per gallon = 25 gallons
Dividing the total distance by the fuel efficiency gives the total amount of fuel required.

The correct order from greatest to least acceleration is: Emergency response boat (2.5 m/s22.5 \text{ m/s}^2), Heavy towing winch (1.5 m/s21.5 \text{ m/s}^2), Runway snowplow (1.2 m/s21.2 \text{ m/s}^2), and Construction crane (0.5 m/s20.5 \text{ m/s}^2).
To determine the correct order, we must calculate the magnitude of acceleration for each scenario using the formula a=vf−vita = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}. The boat has the highest acceleration (2.5 m/s22.5 \text{ m/s}^2), followed by the winch (1.5 m/s21.5 \text{ m/s}^2), the snowplow (1.2 m/s21.2 \text{ m/s}^2), and finally the crane (0.5 m/s20.5 \text{ m/s}^2). Arranging them from greatest to least yields this precise sequence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the acceleration of the emergency response boat.
The boat accelerates at 2.5 m/s22.5 \text{ m/s}^2.
Using the formula a=vf−vita = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}, we get a=25.0−5.08.0=2.5 m/s2a = \frac{25.0 - 5.0}{8.0} = 2.5 \text{ m/s}^2.
2
Calculate the acceleration of the heavy towing winch.
The winch accelerates at 1.5 m/s21.5 \text{ m/s}^2.
Using the formula a=vf−vita = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}, we get a=4.0−1.02.0=1.5 m/s2a = \frac{4.0 - 1.0}{2.0} = 1.5 \text{ m/s}^2.
3
Calculate the acceleration of the runway snowplow.
The snowplow accelerates at 1.2 m/s21.2 \text{ m/s}^2.
From a complete stop, vi=0v_i = 0. a=12.0−010.0=1.2 m/s2a = \frac{12.0 - 0}{10.0} = 1.2 \text{ m/s}^2.
4
Calculate the acceleration of the construction crane.
The crane accelerates at 0.5 m/s20.5 \text{ m/s}^2.
From rest, vi=0v_i = 0. a=3.0−06.0=0.5 m/s2a = \frac{3.0 - 0}{6.0} = 0.5 \text{ m/s}^2.
5
Order the calculated acceleration values from greatest to least.
Boat (2.52.5) > Winch (1.51.5) > Snowplow (1.21.2) > Crane (0.50.5).
The prompt requires arranging the scenarios in descending order based on their calculated magnitudes of acceleration.

The hydrostatic pressure is 26 psi.
The correct calculation requires two phases: first, determining the pressure based on depth and specific weight, which yields 3744 psf3744\text{ psf} (60×62.460 \times 62.4). Second, converting area units from square feet to square inches by dividing by 144, resulting in exactly 26 psi26\text{ psi}.

Calculate the hydrostatic pressure in pounds per square foot (psf).
62.4 lb/ft3×60 ft=3744 lb/ft262.4\text{ lb/ft}^3 \times 60\text{ ft} = 3744\text{ lb/ft}^2 (psf)
Hydrostatic pressure is the product of the fluid's specific weight and the depth of the fluid column.

A city planner is reviewing a design where two straight, parallel avenues are intersected by a diagonal rail line. The measure of one obtuse angle at the first intersection is (12x−20)∘(12x - 20)^\circ, and the measure of its corresponding angle at the second intersection is (8x+40)∘(8x + 40)^\circ.

What is the measure of the acute angle formed by the intersection of the rail line and the avenues?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 20∘20^\circ

Cevap

The measure of the acute angle is 20∘20^\circ.
Because the avenues are parallel, their corresponding angles are equal. Setting the expressions equal gives 12x−20=8x+4012x - 20 = 8x + 40. Subtracting 8x8x and adding 2020 to both sides results in 4x=604x = 60, which simplifies to x=15x = 15. Substituting 1515 back into either expression yields the obtuse angle measure: 12(15)−20=160∘12(15) - 20 = 160^\circ. The question asks for the adjacent acute angle, which forms a linear pair with the obtuse angle. Subtracting from 180∘180^\circ gives 180∘−160∘=20∘180^\circ - 160^\circ = 20^\circ.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Set the expressions for the two corresponding angles equal to each other.
12x−20=8x+4012x - 20 = 8x + 40
When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, corresponding angles are equal in measure.
2
Solve the algebraic equation for xx.
4x=60⇒x=154x = 60 \Rightarrow x = 15
Subtracting 8x8x from both sides and adding 2020 to both sides isolates the variable xx.
3
Substitute x=15x = 15 back into either expression to find the measure of the obtuse angle.
12(15)−20=180−20=160∘12(15) - 20 = 180 - 20 = 160^\circ
The expressions represent the obtuse corresponding angles, so plugging in the value of xx gives the actual angle measure.
4
Subtract the obtuse angle from 180∘180^\circ to find the measure of the adjacent acute angle.
180∘−160∘=20∘180^\circ - 160^\circ = 20^\circ
Angles on a straight line form a linear pair and are supplementary, meaning their sum must be 180∘180^\circ.

Anahtar Kavram

Corresponding angles on parallel lines are equal, and adjacent angles on a straight line are supplementary (sum to 180∘180^\circ).

Cevap

72 pounds72 \text{ pounds}
In a wheel and axle system where effort is applied to the wheel (the handle), the force is multiplied by the ratio of the wheel's diameter to the axle's diameter. The ratio of 1.5 inches1.5 \text{ inches} to 0.25 inches0.25 \text{ inches} provides a mechanical advantage of 66. Multiplying the 12 pounds12 \text{ pounds} of effort by 66 yields an output force of 72 pounds72 \text{ pounds}.

Identify the components of the wheel and axle system.
The handle acts as the wheel (Diameter = 1.5 in1.5 \text{ in}), and the shaft acts as the axle (Diameter = 0.25 in0.25 \text{ in}).
Establishing which component is the wheel and which is the axle determines how force is multiplied.
2
Calculate the Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA).
IMA=1.50.25=6IMA = \frac{1.5}{0.25} = 6
The IMA for a wheel and axle is found by dividing the diameter of the wheel by the diameter of the axle.

Cevap

80 N80 \text{ N}; Second-class lever
In this mechanism, the fulcrum (hinge) is at one end, the effort is applied at the opposite end, and the resistance (load) is located between them. This arrangement defines a second-class lever. The effort arm is the total distance from the fulcrum to the effort (1.00 m1.00 \text{ m}), while the load arm is the distance from the fulcrum to the resistance (0.20 m0.20 \text{ m}). The mechanical advantage (MA) is found by dividing the effort arm by the load arm (1.00/0.20=51.00 / 0.20 = 5). To find the required effort force, the load is divided by the MA (400 N/5=80 N400 \text{ N} / 5 = 80 \text{ N}).

Instead of using the Mechanical Advantage (MA) ratio, the static equilibrium torque equation can be used directly: (Effort Force) × (Distance from Fulcrum to Effort) = (Load Force) × (Distance from Fulcrum to Load). This gives: Effort × 1.00 = 400 × 0.20, solving directly to Effort = 80 N.

To find the elapsed time, the units must first be standardized. Since acceleration is given in meters per second squared (0.5 m/s20.5 \text{ m/s}^2), the target velocity must be converted from meters per minute to meters per second by dividing by 60. This gives a final velocity of 2 m/s2 \text{ m/s}. Using the formula for time (t=Δvat = \frac{\Delta v}{a}), dividing 2 m/s2 \text{ m/s} by 0.5 m/s20.5 \text{ m/s}^2 results in exactly 4 seconds.

1
Identify the given variables and the unknown.
Initial velocity (viv_i) = 0 m/s0 \text{ m/s}. Acceleration (aa) = 0.5 m/s20.5 \text{ m/s}^2. Final velocity (vfv_f) = 120 m/min120 \text{ m/min}. Unknown is time (tt).
Establishing the known kinematic values is the first step in solving acceleration problems.
2
Convert the final velocity into standard units (meters per second) to match the acceleration unit.
120 m/min÷60 s/min=2 m/s120 \text{ m/min} \div 60 \text{ s/min} = 2 \text{ m/s}.
All units must be consistent before applying mathematical formulas.
3
Apply the acceleration formula a=vf−vita = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t} and solve for tt.
0.5=2−0t0.5 = \frac{2 - 0}{t}, which rearranges to t=20.5=4 secondst = \frac{2}{0.5} = 4 \text{ seconds}.
This calculates the elapsed time required to achieve the desired change in velocity.

A circular metal plate has a total area of 100π cm2100\pi \text{ cm}^2. A smaller circular hole is drilled completely out of its exact center. If the area of the remaining metal plate is 64π cm264\pi \text{ cm}^2, what is the radius of the drilled hole?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6 cm6 \text{ cm}

Cevap

The radius of the drilled hole is 6 cm6 \text{ cm}.
The area of the removed hole is the difference between the original total area and the remaining area, which is 100π−64π=36π cm2100\pi - 64\pi = 36\pi \text{ cm}^2. Using the circle area formula (A=πr2A = \pi r^2), setting πr2=36π\pi r^2 = 36\pi yields r2=36r^2 = 36. Taking the square root of both sides confirms the radius is 6 cm6 \text{ cm}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Find the area of the drilled hole by subtracting the remaining area from the total area.
100π−64π=36π cm2100\pi - 64\pi = 36\pi \text{ cm}^2.
The drilled hole accounts for the area that was removed from the total plate.
2
Set up the area formula for the drilled hole to solve for the unknown radius.
A=πr2→36π=πr2A = \pi r^2 \rightarrow 36\pi = \pi r^2.
The area of a circle is calculated using the formula A=πr2A = \pi r^2.
3
Solve the equation for the radius rr.
r2=36r^2 = 36, so r=6 cmr = 6 \text{ cm}.
Dividing both sides by π\pi leaves r2=36r^2 = 36, and taking the square root of both sides gives the radius.
