15. Explain Can the mass
number of an atom ever be
smaller than its atomic num-
ber?

Abatter hits the baseball a with an initial velocity of v0 = 110 ft/sec directly toward fielder b at an angle of 23° to the horizontal; the initial position of the ball is 2.2 ft above ground level. fielder b requires 0.44 sec to judge where the ball should be caught and begins moving to that position with constant speed. because of great experience, fielder b chooses his running speed so that he arrives at the “catch position” simultaneously with the baseball. the catch position is the field location at which the ball altitude is 8.4 ft. determine the velocity of the ball relative to the fielder at the instant the catch is made.

For problems 1-3, consider a simple dc brush motor with a permanent magnet stator. with an an consider a simple dc brush motor with a permanent magnet ae supply voltage of 100 v, the no-load speed of the motor is 1000 rpm. this motor can provide a torque of 1.9 n-m at 800 rpm drawing a current of 2 a current are both zero at no load.) 1. with an armature supply voltage of 100 v, the motor is operated at 900 rpm. what is the motor torque? what is the mechanical power delivered by the motor? what is the current draw? what is the electrical power input? what is the energy efficiency of the motor? with an armature supply voltage of 100 v, the motor is operated at 1100 rpm (where it acts as a generator). what torque input is required? what mechanical power is required what current is generated? what is the electrical power generated? what is the energy efficiency of the motor acting as a generator? 2. with an armature supply voltage raised to 120 v, the motor is operated at 1000 rpm. what is the no-load speed? what is the motor torque? what is the mechanical power delivered by the motor? what is the current draw? what is the electrical power input what is the energy efficiency of the motor? 3.

At an oceanside nuclear power plant, seawater is used as part of the cooling system. this raises the temperature of the water that is discharged back into the ocean. the amount that the water temperature is raised has a uniform distribution over the interval from 10° to 25° c. what is the standard deviation of the temperature increase?
