Alarge rectangular barge floating on a lake oscillates up and down with a period of 4.5 s. find the damping constant for the barge, given that its mass is 2.30ã10^5 kg and that its amplitude of oscillation decreases by a factor of 2.0 in 4.9 minutes.

Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. thinking only about the first part of the question, mass, what might be a hypothesis that would illustrate the relationship between mass and kinetic energy? use the format of "if…then…because…” when writing your hypothesis.

When using the scientist method, which step comes last?

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.
