- Review. A mixing beater consists of three thin rods, each 10.0 cm long. The rods diverge from a central hub, separated from each other by 120, and all turn in the same plane. A ball is attached to the end of each rod. Each ball has cross-sectional area 4.00 cm2 and is so shaped that it has a drag coefficient of 0.600. Calculate the power input required to spin the beater at 1 000 rev/min (a) in air and (b) in water.arrow_forwardYou are watching a new bridge being built near your house. You notice during the construction that two concrete spans of the bridge of total length Li = 250 m are placed end to end so that no room is allowed for expansion (Fig. P18.11a). In the opening storyline for this chapter, we talked about buckling sidewalks. The same thing will happen with spans on bridges if allowance is not made for expansion (Fig. P18.11b). You want to warn the construction crew about this dangerous situation, so you calculate the height y to which the spans will rise when they buckle in response to a temperature increase of T = 20.0C.

Required Info: The leg bone (femur) breaks under a compressive force of about 8.20 x 104 N for a human and 11.4 x 104 N for a horse. The human femur has a compressive strength of 160 MPa, whereas the horse femur has a compressive strength of 140 MPa. a) What is the effective cross-sectional area of the femur in a human? (Note: Since the center of the femur contains bone marrow, which has essentially no compressive strength, the effective cross-sectional area is about 80% of the total cross-sectional area.) b) What is the effective cross-sectional area of the femur in a horse? (Note: Since the center of the femur contains bone marrow, which has essentially no compressive strength, the effective cross-sectional area is about 80% of the total cross-sectional area.)
