A single-celled animal called a paramecium propels itself quite rapidly through water using its hair-like cilia. A certain paramecium experiences a drag force of F d r a g = − b v 2 in water, where the drag coefficient b is approximately 0.290 kg/m . If the paramecium's speed v is 0.000157 m/s , what is the magnitude of the propulsion force that the creature must generate to move at this constant speed?

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)

An incident ray through the focal point of a spherical mirror will: reflect through the center of curvature. reflect back through the focal point. reflect parallel to the principle axis. reflect the same direction as the incident ray.
