In the calculation of the centripetal forces in a nickel-based gas-turbine blade, the density of the blade at the operating temperature of 1000°C is needed. However, only the room-temperature density is available. Using the thermal expansion coefficient for nickel, estimate the density of nickel at 1000°C. You can assume that the expansion of the nickel in the turbine blade is isotropic.
What will be an ideal response?
Energy Conservation With Nonconservative Forces: A 7.5-kg otter slides down a hill, starting from rest at the top. The sloping surface of the hill is 8.8 m long, and the top is 6.5 m above the base. If the speed of the otter at the bottom of the hill is 9.2 m/s, how much energy was lost to nonconservative forces on the hill?
