Amission under study desires to deliver a 800-kg payload through 8 km/s of av. the spacecraft has 3 kw of electric power available for propulsion. the mission planners want to understand the trade-offs for different thrusters and operating conditions, and they want you to make plots of propellant mass and trip time required versus specific impulse for the following cases. assume xenon is the propellant. a. ion thruster case: the ion thruster can run at full power from 1 kv to 2 kv. for all throttle conditions, assume the following parameters are constant: total efficiency of 55 propellant utilization of 85% beam divergence angle of 12 deg, and double-to-single ion current ratio of 10%. b. hall thruster case: the hall thruster can run at full power from 300 v to 400 v. for all throttle conditions, assume the following parameters are constant: total efficiency of 45%, propellant utilization of 85% beam divergence angle of 25 deg, and double-to-single ion current ratio of 15%.

Aroll in a paper machine is powered by a separately excited dc machine. operating point 1 (under load): the roll typically operates at 764 rpm and must provide 301 nm of torque to oppose the load of the paper. the armature voltage is 230v for this operating point operating point 2 (no load): when the load is removed the speed of the roll increases to 900 rpm (the field characteristics are unchanged) la ea dev m (a) calculate the maximum torque (units of nm) that the motor can supply with this applied voltage (b) calculate the value of the armature resistance, ra (in ohms) (c) at operating point 1 (loaded condition), the field current, i, and the total input power (armature field), are measured to be to be 10 a and 28,600 w respectively. use this information to calculate the value of the field resistance, rf (in ohms). (d) (d) at operating point 1 (loaded condition), calculate the motor efficiency. express your answer as a percent to at least 2 significant digits. (d) if the field voltage is reduced by 1/2, calculate the new stall torque (in nm) of the motor (f). if the field voltage is reduced by 1/2, calculate the new no-load speed (in rad/sec)

As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. when you push the platform, you compress the springs. you do an amount of work of 79.0 j when you compress the springs a distance of 0.230 m from their uncompressed length. (a) what magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position? (b)how much additional work must you do to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther? (c) what maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther?
