Thermodynamics I

Problem set I

Acceleration

Newtons Law states that “the acceleration of a particular

body is directly proportional to resultant force acting on it

and inversely proportional to its mass”

A=kF/m

Where:

k is proportionality constant

F is force acting on it

m is mass of object

  1. A mass of 0.10 slug in space is subjected to an external vertical force of 4 lb. if the local gravity acceleration is 9 = 30.5 fps2 and if the friction effects are neglected, determine the acceleration of the mass if the external vertical force is acting (a) upward and (b) downward ans. (a) 9.5 fps2; (b) 70.5 fps
  1. The mass of a given airplane at sea level ( g = 32.1 fps2) is 10 tons. Find its mass in lb, slugs and kg and its (gravitational) weight in lbs. its travelling at a 50000 ft elevation. The aceleration of gravity g decreases by 3.33 x 10^-6 fps2 per each foot of elevation ans. 20000 lbm; 621 slugw; 19850 lbf
