Answer:
W=-280.67 KJ
Explanation:
Given that
Initial pressure = 150 KPa
Final pressure = 600 KPa
Temperature T= 285 K
Mass m=2.4 Kg
We know that ,work in isothermal process given as
[tex]W=mRT\ ln\dfrac{P_1}{P_2}[/tex]
Gas constant for nitrogen gas R=0.296 KJ/kgK
Now by putting the values
[tex]W=mRT\ ln\dfrac{P_1}{P_2}[/tex]
[tex]W=2.4\times 0.296\times 285\ ln\dfrac{150}{600}[/tex]
W=-280.67 KJ
Negative sign indicates that it is compression process and work is done on the gas.
What is a shearing stress? Is there a force resulting from two solids in contact to which is it similar?
Answer:
Shearing stresses are the stresses generated in any material when a force acts in such a way that it tends to tear off the material.
Generally the above definition is valid at an armature level, in more technical terms shearing stresses are the component of the stresses that act parallel to any plane in a material that is under stress. Shearing stresses are present in a body even if normal forces act on it along the centroidal axis.
Mathematically in a plane AB the shearing stresses are given by
[tex]\tau =\frac{Fcos(\theta )}{A}[/tex]
Yes the shearing force which generates the shearing stresses is similar to frictional force that acts between the 2 surfaces in contact with each other.
The pulley has mass 12.0 kg, outer radius Ro=250 mm, inner radius Ri=200 mm, and radius of gyration kO=231 mm. Cylinder A weighs 71.0 N. Assume there is no friction between the pulley and its axle and that the rope is massless. At the instant when ω=69.0 rad/s clockwise, what is the kinetic energy of the system?
The total kinetic energy of the system is approximately 17128.26 J.T
What is the energy?
Calculate the moment of inertia (I) of the pulley:
= 0.5 * mass * (outer radius² + inner radius²)
= [tex]0.5 * 12.0 kg * ((0.250 m)² + (0.200 m)²)[/tex]
= 1.925 kg * m²
Use the parallel-axis theorem to find I:
I = [tex]1.925 kg * m² + 12.0 kg * (0.231 m)²[/tex]
I = 2.5683 kg * m²
Calculate the kinetic energy of the pulley:
= 0.5 * I * omega²
= [tex]0.5 * 2.5683 kg * m² * (69.0 rad/s)[/tex]
= 6555.63 J
Calculate the linear velocity of cylinder A:
v = outer radius * omega
v =[tex]0.250 m * 69.0 rad/s[/tex]
v = 17.25 m/s
Calculate the kinetic energy of cylinder A:
= 0.5 * mass * v²
= [tex]0.5 * 71.0 kg * (17.25 m/s)²[/tex]
= 10572.63 J
KEtotal = KEpulley + KEcylinder
= [tex]6555.63 J + 10572.63 J[/tex]
= 17128.26 J

Answer:
The mass in:
1) Grams =[tex]377765.5\times 10^{3}grams[/tex]
2) Kilograms =[tex]377765.5kilograms[/tex]
3)Tonnes =[tex]377.7655tonnes[/tex]
4) Megatonnes =[tex]0.378megatonnes[/tex]
Explanation: The given mass of the aircraft in pounds is 833,000 pounds.
Part 1)
Since we know that 1 pound equals 453.5 grams thus by ratio we have
833,000 pounds =[tex]833000lb\times 453.5\frac{g}{lb}=377765.5\times 10^{3}grams[/tex]
Part 2)
Since we know that 1000 grams equals 1 kilogram
thus the above mass in kilograms equals[tex]\frac{377765.5\times 10^{3}}{1000}=377765.5kg[/tex]
Part 3)
Since there are 1000 kilograms in 1 tonne
thus the given mass is converted into tonnes as
[tex]mass_{tonnes}=\frac{377765.5kg}{1000}=377.765tonnes[/tex]
Part 4)
Since 1 Mega tonne(Mton) equals 1000 tonnes thus the given mass is converted into mega tonnes as
[tex]mass_{M\cdot tonn}=\frac{377.7655tonnes}{1000}=0.378Megatonnes[/tex]
A satellite is launched 600 km from the surface of the earth, with an initial velocity of 8333.3 m./s, acting parallel to the tangent of the surface of the earth. Assuming the radius of the earth to be 6378 km and that is 5.976 * 10^6 kg, determine the eccentricity of the orbit.
Answer:
eccentrcity of orbit is 0.22
Explanation:
GIVEN DATA:
Initial velocity of satellite = 8333.3 m/s
distance from the sun is 600 km
radius of earth is 6378 km
as satellite is acting parallel to the earth therefore[tex] \theta angle = 0[/tex]
and radial component of given velocity is zero
we have[tex] h = r_o v_r_o = 6378+600 =6.97*10^6 m[/tex]
h = 6.97*10^6 *8333.3 = 58.08*10^9 m^2/s
we know that
[tex]\frac{1}{r} =\frac{GM}{h^2} \times ( i + \epsilon cos\theta)[/tex]
[tex]GM = gr^2 = 9.81*(6.37*10^6)^2 = 398*10^{12} m^3/s[/tex]
so
[tex]\frac{1}{6.97*10^6} =\frac{398*10^{12}}{(58.08*10^9)^2} \times ( i + \epsilon cos0)[/tex]
solvingt for [tex] \epsilon)[/tex]
[tex]\epsilon = 0.22)[/tex]
therefore eccentrcity of orbit is 0.22
Derive the dimensions of specific heat that is defined as the amount of heat required to elevate the temperature of an object of mass 1 kg by 1 degree Celcius.
Answer:
Dimension of specific heat will be [tex]=L^2T^{-2}\Theta ^{-1}[/tex]
Explanation:
We know that heat [tex]Q=mc\Delta T[/tex], Q is heat generated, m is mass, c is specific heat and [tex]\Delta T[/tex] is temperature difference
From formula we can write [tex]c=\frac{Q}{m\times \Delta T}[/tex]
Now unit of Q is joule or N-m
Newton can be written as [tex]kgm/sec^2[/tex]
So unit of Q is [tex]kgm^2/sec^2[/tex]
For dimension we use M for kg, L for meter(m) ,T for sec and [tex]\Theta[/tex] for temperature
So dimension of Q is [tex]ML^2T^{-2}[/tex]
So dimension of specific heat will be [tex]\frac{ML^2T^{-2}}{M\Theta }=L^2T^{-2}\Theta ^{-1}[/tex]
At the beginning of the compression process of an air-standard Diesel cycle, p1 = 95 kPa and T1 = 300 K. The maximum temperature is 2100 K and the mass of air is 12 g. For a compression ratio of 18, determine the net work developed in kJ (enter a number only)
Answer:
6.8 kJ
Explanation:
p1 = 95 kPa
T1 = 300 K
T3 = 2100 K
m = 12 g
Ideal gas equation:
p * v = R * T
v = R * T / p
R for air is 0.287 kJ/(kg K)
v1 = 0.287 * 300 / 95 = 0.9 m^3/kg
v2 = v1 / cr
v2 = 0.9 / 18 = 0.05 m^3/kg
Assuming an adiabatic compression
p*v^k = constant
k is 1.4 for air
p1 * v1 ^ k = p2 * v2 ^ k
p2 = p1 * (v1 / v2) ^k
p2 = p1 * cr^k
p2 = 95 * 18^1.4 = 5.43 MPa
p1*v1/T1 = p2*v2/T2
T2 = p2*v2*T1/(p1*v1)
T2 = 5430 * 0.05 * 300 / (95 * 0.9) = 952 K
The first principle of thermodynamics
Q = W + ΔU
Since this is an adiabatic process Q = 0
W = -ΔU
W1-2 = -m * Cv * (T2 - T1)
The Cv of air is 0.72 kJ/kg
W1-2 = -0.012 * 0.72 * (952 - 300) = -5.63 kJ
Next the combustion happens and temperature increases suddenly.
v3 = v2 = 0.05 m^3/kg
T2 * p2^((1-k)/k) = T3 * p3^((1-k)/k)
p3 = p2 * (T2/T3)^(k/(1-k)
p3 = 5430 * (952/2100)^(1.4/(1-1.4) = 86.5 MPa
The work is zero because the piston doesn't move.
Next it expands adiabatically:
v4 = v1 = 0.9 m^3/kg
T * v^(k-1) = constant (adiabatic process)
T3 * v3^(k-1) = T4 * v4^(k-1)
T4 = T3 * (v3 / v4)^(k-1)
T4 = 2100 * (0.05 / 0.9)^(1.4-1) = 661 K
p3*v3/T3 = p4*v4/T4
p4 = p3*v3*T4/(v4*T3)
p4 = 86500*0.05*661/(0.9*2100) = 1512 kPa
L3-4 = -m * Cv * (T4 - T3)
L3-4 = -0.012 * 0.72 * (661 - 2100) = 12.43 kJ
Net work:
L1-2 + L3-4 = -5.63 + 12.43 = 6.8 kJ
Give examples of engineering structures which can be modelled as thin walled cylinders.
Answer:
Pipes, pressure vessels, tanks, reactors, tubes and nozzles
Explanation:
Thin walled cylinders are typically defines as having wall thickness of 1/10 of the radius (doesn't matter much if inner or outer, they should be similar). Also this is used mostly for things that will be subject to some radial load, as opposed to axles and shafts.
As such, some structures that can be modeled as thin walled cylinders are pipes, pressure vessels, tanks, reactors, tubes and nozzles.
The charpy test determines?
Answer:
The charpy test is used to determine amount of energy a material absorbs at fracture.
Explanation:
Charpy Impact test was developed by a French scientist to determine the amount of energy a material absorbs at fracture hence giving the toughness of the material. It is widely used in industrial applications since it is easy to perform and does not requires sophisticated equipment to perform.
The test is performed when a swinging pendulum of known weight is dropped from a known height and is made to strike the metal specimen which is notched.The notch in the sample affects the results of the test hence the notch should be standardized while performing the test. The qualitative results obtained can also be used to compare ductility of different materials.
Explain the difference between planning and shaping by the help of sketch
Explanation:
In shaping work piece will be stationary and tool will reciprocates,but on the other hand in planning work piece will reciprocates and tool will be stationary.Shaping is used for small work piece and planning is used for large work piece.Both shaping and planning are not continuous cutting process,cutting action take place in forward stroke and return stroke is idle stroke.The velocity of return stroke is much more than the forward stroke.
1.19. A gas is confined in a 0.47 m diameter cylinder by a piston, on which rests a weight. The mass of the piston and weight together is 150 kg. The local acceleration of gravity is 9.813 m·s−2, and atmospheric pressure is 101.57 kPa. (a) What is the force in newtons exerted on the gas by the atmosphere, the piston, and the weight, assuming no friction between the piston and cylinder? (b) What is the pressure of the gas in kPa? (c) If the gas in the cylinder is heated, it expands, pushing the piston and weight upward. If the piston and weight are raised 0.83 m, what is the work done by the gas in kJ? What is the change in potential energy of the piston and weight?\
Answer:
a) 19094 N
b) 110.055 kPa
c) 1222 J
Explanation:
The force on the gas is the weight plus the atmospheric pressure multiplied by the piston area
F = P + p * A
F = m * g + p * π/4 * d^2
F = 150 * 9.813 + 101570 * π/4 * 0.47^2 = 19094 N
The pressure is the force divided by the area of the piston
p1 = F / A
p1 = F / (π/4 * d^2)
p1 = 19094 / (π/4 * 0.47^2) = 110055 Pa = 110.055 kPa
variation of gravitational potential energy is defined as
ΔEp = m * g * Δh
ΔEp = 150 * 9.813 * 0.83 = 1222 J
In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of force to calculate the required energies, so we have to:
a) 19094 N
b) 110.055 kPa
c) 1222 J
What is the concept of force?In the field of physics, force is a physical action that causes deformation or that changes the state of rest or movement of a given object.
a) Knowing that the force formula is defined by:
[tex]F = P + p * A\\F = m * g + p *\pi /4 * d^2\\F = 150 * 9.813 + 101570 * \pi /4 * 0.47^2 = 19094 N[/tex]
b) Knowing that the force exerted by an area is equal to the pressure in that area, we have:
[tex]p_1 = F / A\\p_1 = F / (\pi /4 * d^2)\\p_1 = 19094 / (\pi /4 * 0.47^2) = 110055 Pa = 110.055 kPa[/tex]
c)So calculating the potential energy we have:
[tex]\Delta E_p = m * g * \Delta h\\\Delta E_p = 150 * 9.813 * 0.83 = 1222 J[/tex]

The higher the degree of polymerization, the longer the chains will be, which results in a lower chain molecular weight. a)-True b)- false?
Answer:
b)False
Explanation:
When one or more than one monomer join to other monomer then they form a chain and this joining of monomers is called degree of polymerization .
Degree of polymerization :
[tex]Degree\ of\ polymerization=\dfrac{Mass\ of\ polymer}{Mass\ of\ monomer}[/tex]
So from above we can say that when chain will become longer then the weight of polymer will increase.
A simple undamped spring-mass system is set into motion from rest by giving it an initial velocity of 100 mm/s. It oscillates with a maximum amplitude of 10 mm. What is its natural frequency?
Answer:
f=1.59 Hz
Explanation:
Given that
Simple undamped system means ,system does not consists any damper.If system consists damper then it is damped spring mass system.
Velocity = 100 mm/s
Maximum amplitude = 10 mm
We know that for a simple undamped system spring mass system
[tex]V_{max}=\omega A[/tex]
now by putting the values
[tex]V_{max}=\omega A[/tex]
100 = ω x 10
ω = 10 rad/s
We also know that
ω=2π f
10 = 2 x π x f
f=1.59 Hz
So the natural frequency will be f=1.59 Hz.
Calculate the angle of banking on a bend of 100m radius so that vehicles can travel round the bend at 50km/hr without side thrust on the tyres.
Answer:
11.125°
Explanation:
Given:
Radius of bend, R = 100 m
Speed around the bend = 50 Km/hr = [tex]\frac{5}{18}\times50[/tex] = 13.89 m/s
Now,
We have the relation
[tex]\tan\theta=\frac{v^2}{gR}[/tex]
where,
θ = angle of banking
g is the acceleration due to gravity
on substituting the respective values, we get
[tex]\tan\theta=\frac{13.89^2}{9.81\times100}[/tex]
or
[tex]\tan\theta=0.1966[/tex]
or
θ = 11.125°
A 4-kg-plastic tank that has a volume of 0.2 m^3 is filled with liquid water. Assuming the density of water is 1000 kg/m^3, determine the weight the combined system.
Answer:
The weight of the combined system is 2001.24 Newtons
Explanation:
From the basic relation between mass, density and volume we know that
[tex]density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]
In our context we are given that the density of water is 1000 kg per cubic meters
Thus we can find the mass of 0.2 cubic meters of water using the above relation as
[tex]1000kg/m^{3}=\frac{Mass}{0.2m^{3}}\\\\\therefore Mass=1000kg/m^{3}\times 0.2m^{3}=200kg[/tex]
Hence the mass of water in the tank is 200 kilograms.
The total mass of water and the plastic tank thus becomes
[tex]200+4=204kg[/tex]
Now we know that weight of any given mass is calculated as
[tex]Weight=mass\g[/tex]
where,
'g' is the acceleration due to gravity with value = [tex]9.81m/s^{2}[/tex]
Applying the values in the above equation we get
[tex]Weight=204\times 9.81=2001.24Newtons[/tex]
The Torricelli's theorem states that the (velocity—pressure-density) of liquid flowing out of an orifice is proportional to the square root of the (height-pressure-velocity) of liquid above the center of the orifice.
Answer:
The correct answer is 'velocity'of liquid flowing out of an orifice is proportional to the square root of the 'height' of liquid above the center of the orifice.
Explanation:
Torricelli's theorem states that
[tex]v_{exit}=\sqrt{2gh}[/tex]
where
[tex]v_{exit}[/tex] is the velocity with which the fluid leaves orifice
[tex]h[/tex] is the head under which the flow occurs.
Thus we can compare the given options to arrive at the correct answer
Velocity is proportional to square root of head under which the flow occurs.

Applying values we get
[tex]\theta_z=cos^{-1}(\frac{120}{\sqrt{160^2+80^2+120^2}} )=56.145^{o}[/tex]

A steam power plant operates on a simple ideal Rankine cycle between the pressure limits of 3000 kPa and 25 kPa. The temperature of the steam at the turbine inlet is 400 oC, and the mass flow rate of steam through the cycle is 37 kg/s. Determine: a) the thermal efficiency of the cycle (%) and b) the net power output of the power plant (kW).
Answer:
a)31%
b)34MW
Explanation:
A rankine cycle is a generation cycle using water as a working fluid, when heat enters the boiler the water undergoes a series of changes in state and energy until generating power through the turbine.
This cycle is composed of four main components, the boiler, the pump, the turbine and the condenser as shown in the attached image
To solve any problem regarding the rankine cycle, enthalpies in all states must be calculated using the thermodynamic tables and taking into account the following.
• The pressure of state 1 and 4 are equal
• The pressure of state 2 and 3 are equal
• State 1 is superheated steam
• State 2 is in saturation state
• State 3 is saturated liquid at the lowest pressure
• State 4 is equal to state 3 because the work of the pump is negligible.
Once all enthalpies are found, the following equations are used using the first law of thermodynamics
Wout = m (h1-h2)
Qin = m (h1-h4)
Win = m (h4-h3)
Qout = m (h2-h1)
The efficiency is calculated as the power obtained on the heat that enters
Efficiency = Wout / Qin
Efficiency = (h1-h2) / (h1-h4)
For this problem, we will first find the enthalpies in all states
h1=3231kJ/Kg
h2=2310kJ/Kg
h3=h4=272kJ/Kg
A) using the eficiency ecuation
Efficiency = (h1-h2) / (h1-h4)
Efficiency =(3231-2310)/(3231-272)=0.31=31%
b)using ecuation for Wout
Wout = m (h1-h2)
Wout=37(3231-2310)=34077KW=34.077MW
Yield strength (Sy) is typically defined as the point on the stress–strain curve with a strain of during a tension test. a) 0.1% b) 0.2% c) 0.3% c) 0.4%
Answer:
The correct answer is option 'b': 0.2%
Explanation:
The yield strength of a material is defined as the stress in the material when the material begin's to undergo plastic deformation which is also known as yielding.
For materials with well defined yield point such as steel of grade Fe-250 the yield strength can be properly identified from the stress strain curve. But for high strength steel such as Fe-415, Fe-500 the yield point is not properly identified hence the yield strength is taken at 0.2% of proof strain.
What are factor of safety for brittle and ductile material
Explanation:
Step1
Factor of safety is the number that is taken for the safe design of any component. It is the ratio of failure stress to the maximum allowable stress for the material.
Step2
It is an important parameter for design of any component. This factor of safety is taken according to the environment condition, type of material, strength, type of component etc.
Step3
Different material has different failure stress. So, ductile material fails under shear force. Ductile material’s FOS is based on yield stress as failure stress as after yield point ductile material tends to yield. Brittle material’s FOS is based on ultimate stress as failure stress.
The expression for factor of safety for ductile material is given as follows:
[tex]FOS=\frac{\sigma_{yp}}{\sigma_{a}}[/tex]
Here,[tex]\sigma_{f}[/tex] is yield stress and [tex]\sigma_{a}[/tex] is allowable stress.
The expression for factor of safety for brittle material is given as follows:
[tex]FOS=\frac{\sigma_{ut}}{\sigma_{a}}[/tex]
Here,[tex]\sigma_{ut}[/tex] is ultimate stress and [tex]\sigma_{a}[/tex] is allowable stress.
The position of a particle along a straight-line path is defined by s = (t3 - 6t2 - 15t + 7) ft, where t is in seconds. When t = 8 s, determine the particle’s (a) instantaneous velocity and instantaneous acceleration, (b) average velocity and average speed
To determine the instantaneous velocity and acceleration of a particle described by the position function s(t), one needs to calculate the first and second derivatives of the position function and evaluate them at the given time, t = 8 s. The average velocity and speed require the change in position over a specific time interval, which is not provided in the question.
Explanation:The position of a particle along a straight-line path is given by the equation s = (t3 - 6t2 - 15t + 7) feet, where t is time in seconds. To find the particle's instantaneous velocity and instantaneous acceleration at t = 8 s, we need to take the first and second derivatives of the position function with respect to time, respectively.
The first derivative of s with respect to t gives us the velocity v(t), and the second derivative gives us the acceleration a(t). At t = 8 s, the velocities and accelerations can be calculated by plugging in the value of t into those derivatives.
To determine the average velocity and average speed, we take the change in position over the change in time interval for the specific time range provided.
Note: The question lacks sufficient specific information to calculate these values as the time interval for the average velocity and average speed is not provided. However, the general process of calculation has been explained.
Acceleration, instantaneous velocity, and particle position at different times are essential concepts in physics and particle motion analysis.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. In the given scenarios, acceleration is provided in terms of a function of time or as a constant value.
Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of the particle at a specific moment. It can be calculated by taking the derivative of the position function with respect to time.
Position of the particle at different times can be found by substituting the respective time values into the position function.
Find the error in the following proof that 2 = 1. Consider the equation a = b. Multiply both sides by a to obtain a 2 = ab. Subtract b 2 from both sides to get a 2 − b 2 = ab − b 2 . Now factor each side, (a + b)(a − b) = b(a − b), and divide each side by (a − b) to get a + b = b. Finally, let a and b equal 1, which shows that 2 = 1.
Answer:
You can't divide by zero
Explanation:
The error appears when you divide each side by (a - b). If a = b, then (a - b) = 0 and you can't divide each side by 0. Moreover, the equation before division, that is, (a + b)(a − b) = b(a − b) is true after replacing (a - b) = 0 because it gives 0 = 0.
The error in the proof lies in the step where we divided both sides by (a - b) . Since [tex]\( a = b \), \( (a - b) \)[/tex] becomes 0, making the division by 0 undefined.
The error occurs when dividing both sides by (a - b) . Since ( a = b ), ( (a - b) becomes 0. Division by 0 is undefined, leading to the invalid conclusion.
To elaborate, dividing both sides by (a - b) in the equation (a + b)(a - b) = b(a - b) results in:
[tex]\[ \frac{(a + b)(a - b)}{(a - b)} = \frac{b(a - b)}{(a - b)} \]\[ \frac{(a + b)\cancel{(a - b)}}{\cancel{(a - b)}} = \frac{b\cancel{(a - b)}}{\cancel{(a - b)}} \]\[ a + b = b \][/tex]
This step assumes (a - b) is not equal to zero, leading to the false conclusion that ( a + b = b ), which is only true when a and ( b ) are equal.
Therefore, the proof incorrectly concludes that ( 2 = 1 ) due to the division by zero, highlighting the importance of avoiding such mathematical errors.
a) What is the Damkohler number? b) What is the significance of a system with a low Damkohler number?
Explanation:
Damkohler numbers are mainly used in chemistry. It is a dimensionless number. It denotes the timescale at which the reaction takes place with relation to the transport phenomenon.
There are two Damkohler numbers
First Damkohler number is the ratio of reaction rate to the convective mass transport rate.
[tex]Da=\frac{\text{Reaction rate or chemical reaction timescale}}{\text{Convective mass transport rate}}[/tex]
Second Damkohler number is the ratio of reaction rate to the diffusive mass transfer rate
[tex]Da_{II}=\frac{\text{Reaction rate or chemical reaction timescale}}{\text{Diffusive mass transfer rate}}[/tex]
It can be seen from the equations that if the numerator is greater than the denominator then Da>1 and vice versa.
So,
When Da>1, the diffusion rate distribution is lower than the reaction rate.
When Da<1, the reaction rate is lower than the diffusion rate.
Consider two closed systems A and B. System A contains 300 kJ of thermal energy at 20C, whereas system B contains 200kJ of thermal energy at 50oC. Now the systems are brought into contact with each other. Determine the direction of any heat transfer between the two systems and explain your answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
Heat will flow from system B to system A. This is because system B has a higher temperature than system A. Temperature is a measurement od thermodynamic equilibrium. A difference of temperature between two systems is a thermal unbalance, which if they are in contact is compensated by a flow of heat to change the temperatures and reach an equilibrium.
If a plus sight of 12.03 ft is taken on BM A, elevation 312.547 ft, and a minus sight of 5.43 ft is read on point X, calculate the HI and the elevation of point X.
Answer:
Therefore, height of instrument is 324.577 ft
Therefore, elevation of point x is 330 m
Explanation:
Given that
Plus sight on BM = 12.03 ft
Minus sight is = 5.43 ft
Elevation = 312.547 ft
Height of instrument is H.I
H.I = elevation on bench mark + plus sight
= 312.547 + 12.03 = 324.577 ft
Therefore, height of instrument is 324.577 ft
Elevation at point x is = H.I - minus sight
= 324.577 - (- 5.43)
= 330.00 m
Therefore, elevation of point x is 330 m
The absolute pressure in water at a depth of 9 m is read to be 185 kPa. Determine: a. The local atmospheric pressure b. The absolute pressure at a depth of 5 m in liquid whose specific gravity is 0.8 at the same location.
Answer:
a)Patm=135.95Kpa
b)Pabs=175.91Kpa
Explanation:
the absolute pressure is the sum of the water pressure plus the atmospheric pressure, which means that for point a we have the following equation
Pabs=Pw+Patm(1)
Where
Pabs=absolute pressure
Pw=Water pressure
Patm= atmospheric pressure
Water pressure is calculated with the following equation
Pw=γ.h(2)
where
γ=especific weight of water=9.81KN/M^3
H=depht
A)
Solving using ecuations 1 y 2
Patm=Pabs-Pw
Patm=185-9.81*5=135.95Kpa
B)
Solving using ecuations 1 y 2, and atmospheric pressure
Pabs=0.8x5x9.81+135.95=175.91Kpa
You live on a street that runs East to West. You just had 2 inche of snow and you live on the North side of the street. You return from class at 2PM and notice all the snow on your sidewalk is gone but across the street it is still there. No one removed the snow. How did it go away?
Answer:
The heat from the sun melted it
Explanation:
If the street runs east to west, houses on the south (across the street) will project shadows on their sidewalk, while the northern sidewalk will be illuminated. This is for the northern hemisphere, on the southern hemisphere it would be the other way around.
What are the units or dimensions of the shear rate dv/dy (English units)? Then, what are the dimensions of the shear stress τ= μ*dV/dy? Then, by dimensional analysis, show that the shear stress has the same units as momentum divided by (area*time).What are the unit or dimensions of viscosity?
Answer:
1) Dimensions of shear rate is [tex][T^{-1}][/tex] .
2)Dimensions of shear stress are [tex][ML^{-1}T^{-2}][/tex]
Explanation:
Since the dimensions of velocity 'v' are [tex][LT^{-1}][/tex] and the dimensions of distance 'y' are [tex][L][/tex] , thus the dimensions of [tex]\frac{dv}{dy}[/tex] become
[tex]\frac{[LT^{-1}]}{[L]}=[T^{-1}][/tex] and hence the units become [tex]s^{-1}[/tex].
Now we know that the dimensions of coefficient of dynamic viscosity [tex]\mu [/tex] are [tex][ML^{-1}T^{-1}][/tex] thus the dimensions of shear stress can be obtained from the given formula as
[tex][\tau ]=[ML^{-1}T^{-1}]\times [T^{-1}]\\\\[\tau ]=[ML^{-1}T^{-2}][/tex]
Now we know that dimensions of momentum are [tex][MLT^{-1}][/tex]
The dimensions of [tex]Area\times time[/tex] are [tex][L^{2}T][/tex]
Thus the dimensions of [tex]\frac{Moumentum}{Area\times time}=\frac{MLT^{-1}}{L^{2}T}=[MLT^{-2}][/tex]
Which is same as that of shear stress. Hence proved.
A closed, rigid tank contains 2 kg of water initially at 80 degree C and a quality of 0.6. Heat transfer occurs until the tank contains only saturated vapor at a higher pressure. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. For the water as the system, determine the amount of energy transfer by heat, in kJ.
Answer:
[tex]Q=1752.3kJ[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, the transferred heat is defined via the first law of thermodynamics as shown below as it is about a rigid tank which does not perform any work:
[tex]Q_{in}=m_{H_2O}(u_2-u_1)[/tex]
The internal energy at the first state (80°C as a vapor-liquid mixture) is computed based on its quality as follows:
[tex]u_1=334.97kJ/kg+0.6*2146.6kJ/kg=1622.93kJ/kg[/tex]
Now, the specific volume turn out into:
[tex]v_1=0.001029m^3/kg+0.6*3.404271m^3/kg=2.0435916m^3/kg[/tex]
As the volume does not change due to the fact that this is about a rigid tank, we must look for a temperature at which the saturated vapor's volume matches with the previously computed volume. This turn out into a temperature of about 94.17 °C at which the internal energy of the saturated vapor is about (by interpolation):
[tex]u_2=2499.1kJ/kg[/tex]
In such a way, the energy transfer by heat is:
[tex]Q=2kg*(2499.1kJ/kg-1622.93kJ/kg)\\Q=1752.3kJ[/tex]
Best regards.
A water tank is emptied through a pipe with an outlet 5m below the water surface level. What is the exit velocity? a) 2.1m/s b) 9.9 m/s c) -12.3m/s d)-4.8m/s e) 15.3m/s
Answer:
The correct answer is option 'b': 9.9 m/s
Explanation:
We know that for an ideal fluid the velocity of exit from a tank with the height of water 'h' is given by Torricelli's Law as
[tex]v=\sqrt{2gh}[/tex]
where,
'g' is acceleration due to gravity
'h' is the level of water
Applying the given values we obtain velocity as
[tex]v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 5}=9.90m/s[/tex]
A certain working substance receives 100 Btu reversibly as heat at a temperature of 1000℉ from an energy source at 3600°R. Referred to as receiver temperature of 80℉, calculate: A. the available energy of the working substance ( 63 Btu ) B. the available portion of the 100 Btu added at the source temperature ( 85 Btu ) C. the reduction in available energy between the source temperature and the 1000℉ temperature ( 22 Btu )
Answer:
Explanation:
t1 = 1000 F = 1460 R
t0 = 80 F = 540 R
T2 = 3600 R
The working substance has an available energy in reference to the 80F source of:
B1 = Q1 * (1 - T0 / T1)
B1 = 100 * (1 - 540 / 1460) = 63 BTU
The available energy of the heat from the heat wource at 3600 R is
B2 = Q1 * (1 - T0 / T2)
B2 = 100 * (1 - 540 / 3600) = 85 BTU
The reduction of available energy between the source and the 1460 R temperature is:
B3 = B2 - B1 = 85 - 63 = 22 BTU
