    Problem about orbital mechanics

    So the answer would be R2-R = (5/3)R- 1 R=(3/2) R

    Problem about orbital mechanics

    I tried it, but I am not getting no of the given answers According to the statement, it is saying that 3 KE (in the orbit ) = ΔUg So, beeing R the radius of the Earth and R2 the radius of the orbit: 3 (1/2)(GMm/r2) = -GMm/r2 - (-GMm/R) Canceling out the GMm: (3/2)(1/r2)= (-1/r2) + (1/R)...

    FBD of an aerogenerator (Windmill)

    Homework Statement Good afternoon, I hope someone could help me with this problem, it is killing my head. I have an aerogenerator, I already find the torque excerted by the air (75.8N) and the force transmitted by the gear (1010.6N). The problem comes when I try to draw the free body diagram to...

    Why this special case occurs in an exchange of heat

    Yes, I know the best arrangement is with the counterflow heat exchanger. I agree with you, the oil will get closer to 26°C, but how can I prove that with calculations? Because according with calculations, I will get the 46.7°C

    Why this special case occurs in an exchange of heat

    I wrote incorrectly one part, I am sorry! The water comes in with 26°C and comes out 18°C.

    Why this special case occurs in an exchange of heat

    Homework Statement Hello. First of all sorry about this question, it has to do a little with heat transfer from engineering. This situation is not real, I was working in a proyect and this doubt came to me. I have a heat exchanger of parallel tubes. Water flows in a tube and oil flows in...

    How to measure the magnetic field/ induced fem in a system

    But is there any formula that allow me to compute the variation of the magnetic flux knowing the angular velocity and radius of the disk?

    How to measure the magnetic field/ induced fem in a system

    Homework Statement Hello, this is like an experiment of engineering.It is called a induction stove. The system consists of a bycicle, where I am going to pedal. This will turn a disk that have 20 small magnets around its circuference. Once the disk starts to turn, it will produce a constant...

    Find the mass M so that the net torque is zero

    Alright, that is what I think, so my last approach (and picutre) are the correct.

    Find the mass M so that the net torque is zero

    Homework Statement Hello, I have a problem I don't want how to approach, it is a little weird. It is a problem of equilibrium (torque) The situation and my approach is in the picture I uploaded. A beam is supported by the blue structure. On the beam it is a person(100N) at a distance of 3m in...

    Find the force P such that the disk rolls without slip

    Homework Statement When a disk rolls in a surface whitout slip, the velocity of the disk's edge (where it contacts the surface) is zero with respect the surface and the friction force is less than the maximum allowable of Us.N, where Us is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal...
