Chapter 15, Problem 9RQ
You are studying the properties of tiny spheres generated by an automated process. You collect data on a large number of the spheres and record this data in the two-row matrix SphereData Each pair of values (each column) represents the data for a specific sphere. The first row of sphereData contains the diameters of the spheres in millimeters; the second row contains the masses of the corresponding spheres in micrograms. Write a single MATLAB command to achieve each of the following tasks.
a. Create a third row in sphereData that contains the volumes [cubic millimeters] of the corresponding spheres represented in the first two rows of sphereData
b. Create a fourth row in sphereData that contains the specific gravities of the corresponding spheres represented in sphereData
c. Create a column
First element: Average diameter of all spheres
Third element: Maximum diameter of all spheres

An elastic bar of length L = 1m and cross section A = 1cm2 spins with
angular velocity ω about an axis, as shown in the figure below. The
radial acceleration at a generic point x along the bar is a(x) = ω2x,
where ω= 100rad/s is the angular velocity. The bar is pinned on the
rotation axis at x = 0. A mass M = 1kg is attached to the right end of
the bar. Due to the radial acceleration, the bar stretches along x with
displacement function u(x). The displacement u(x) solves the BVP
(strong form) sketched below:

σ(L) =?? natural BC
where σ(x) is the axial stress in the rod, ρ= 2700kg /m3 is the mass
density, and E = 70GPa is the Young’s modulus
1. Define appropriate BCs for the strong BVP
2. Find the solution of the strong BVP analytically
3. Derive the weak form of the BVP.

- answer this as soon as possible, please.arrow_forwardA piston–cylinder device contains 50 kg of water at 250 kPa and 25°C. The cross-sectional area of the piston is 0.1 m2. Heat is now transferred to the water, causing part of it to evaporate and expand. When the volume reaches 0.26 m3, the piston reaches a linear spring whose spring constant is 100 kN/m. More heat is transferred to the water until the piston rises 20 cm more. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part.

The steam radiator transfers heat at a rate of 10,000 kJ/h, and a 100-W fan is used to distribute the warm air in the room. The rate of heat loss from the room is estimated to be about 5000 kJ/h. If the initial temperature of the room air is 10°C, determine how long it will take for the air temperature to rise to 25°C. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa·m3/kg·K (Table A-1). Also, cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K for air at room temperature (Table A-2). Steam enters the radiator system through an inlet outside the room and leaves the system through an outlet on the same side of the room. The fan is labeled as W sub p w. The heat is given off by the whole system consisting of room, radiator and fan at the rate of 5000 kilojoules per hour.
