A wooden block (SG = 0.6) floats in oil (GS = 0.8). What fraction of the volume of the block is submerged in oil?

Given:

Outer Diameter, OD = 90 mm

thickness, t = 0.1656 mm

Poisson's ratio, [tex]\mu[/tex] = 0.334

Strength = 320 MPa

Pressure, P =3.5 MPa

Formula Used:

1).  [tex]Axial Stress_{max}[/tex] = [tex]P[\frac{r_{o}^{2} + r_{i}^{2}}{r_{o}^{2} - r_{i}^{2}}][/tex]

2). factor of safety, m = [tex]\frac{strength}{stress_{max}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Now, for Inner Diameter of cylinder, ID = OD - 2t

ID = 90 - 2(1.65) = 86.7 mm

Outer radius,  [tex]r_{o}[/tex] = 45mm

Inner radius,  [tex]r_{i}[/tex] = 43.35 mm

Now by using the given formula (1)

  [tex]Axial Stress_{max}[/tex] = [tex]3.5[\frac{45^{2} + 43.35^{2}}{45^{2} - 43.35^{2}}][/tex]

  [tex]Axial Stress_{max}[/tex] = [tex]3.5\times 26.78[/tex] =93.74 MPa

Now, Using formula (2)

factor of safety, m = \frac{320}{93.74} = 3.414

Answer:

Differential analysis is used when it is needed to determine the detail information of the flow i.e. pressure or stress variation along any point.

Explanation:

In fluid mechanics, sometime situation arise in which we need to determine in detail about flow characteristics like stress and pressure variation.

To find  these flow characteristics some relationship need to imply either at a point or at very small volume and analysis of flow at very small point is known as differential analysis.  

Example: pressure and shear stress variation in a line of the wing of a plane.

Answer:

Tensile stress is 14.15 N/[tex]mm^{2}[/tex]

Explanation:

When any object is subjected to an external force, the body offers a resisting force which is equal and opposite to the external load. This resisting force is called stress. Thus stress is defined as the force acting perpendicular to the given cross sectional area of the object.

Mathematically,  stress , σ = [tex]\frac{force }{area}[/tex]

Given : Tensile force, F = 400 N

            Diameter of the rod, d = 6 mm

            Area of the rod is given by, A = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}\times d^{2}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}\times 6^{2}[/tex]

                                                              =28.27 [tex]mm^{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the tensile tress is,   σ = [tex]\frac{force }{area}[/tex]

                                                        = [tex]\frac{400 }{28.27}[/tex]

                                                       = 14.149 N/[tex]mm^{2}[/tex]

                                                       [tex]\simeq[/tex] 14.15 N/[tex]mm^{2}[/tex]

Thus, tensile stress experieced by the rod is 14.15 N/[tex]mm^{2}[/tex]

Answer:

a). Work transfer = 527.2 kJ

b). Heat Transfer = 197.7 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

[tex]P_{1}[/tex] = 5 Mpa

[tex]T_{1}[/tex] = 1623°C

                       = 1896 K

[tex]V_{1}[/tex] = 0.05 [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

Also given [tex]\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = 20[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]V_{2}[/tex] = 1  [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

R = 0.27 kJ / kg-K

[tex]C_{V}[/tex] = 0.8 kJ / kg-K

Also given : [tex]P_{1}V_{1}^{1.25}=C[/tex]

   Therefore, [tex]P_{1}V_{1}^{1.25}[/tex] = [tex]P_{2}V_{2}^{1.25}[/tex]

                     [tex]5\times 0.05^{1.25}=P_{2}\times 1^{1.25}[/tex]

                     [tex]P_{2}[/tex] = 0.1182 MPa

a). Work transfer, δW = [tex]\frac{P_{1}V_{1}-P_{2}V_{2}}{n-1}[/tex]

                                  [tex]\left [\frac{5\times 0.05-0.1182\times 1}{1.25-1}  \right ]\times 10^{6}[/tex]

                              = 527200 J

                             = 527.200 kJ

b). From 1st law of thermodynamics,

Heat transfer, δQ = ΔU+δW

   = [tex]\frac{mR(T_{2}-T_{1})}{\gamma -1}+ \frac{P_{1}V_{1}-P_{2}V_{2}}{n-1}[/tex]

  =[tex]\left [ \frac{\gamma -n}{\gamma -1} \right ]\times \delta W[/tex]

  =[tex]\left [ \frac{1.4 -1.25}{1.4 -1} \right ]\times 527.200[/tex]

  = 197.7 kJ

Answer:

Heat loss 67%.

Explanation:

We know that heat transfer

    Q=AUΔT

Where U is the overall heat transfer coefficient ,A is the area and ΔT is the temperature difference.

Now heat transfer in terms of U-factor

[tex] Q_1=AU_1ΔT[/tex]

[tex] Q_2=AU_2ΔT[/tex]

Given that temperature difference is same in both condition so

[tex]\dfrac{Q_1}{U_1}=\dfrac{Q_2}{U_2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{Q_1}{Q_2}=\dfrac{U_1}{U_2}[/tex]

[tex] heat\ loss=\dfrac{Q_2-Q_1}{Q_1}[/tex]

[tex] heat\ loss=\dfrac{U_2-U_1}{U_1}[/tex]

Given that[tex]U_2=0.33U_1[/tex]

[tex] heat\ loss=\dfrac{0.33U_1-U_1}{U_1}[/tex]

Heat loss 67%.

Answer:

Probaility

Explanation:

The reliability of a component, system or unit can be defined as the probability that that component can operate for a certain period of time (mission time) without losing its function.

Answer:

96.1%

Explanation:

We know that lift force

[tex]F_L=\dfrac{1}{2}C_L\rho AV^2[/tex]

                                                                    ------------(1)

Where [tex]C_L[/tex] is the lift force coefficient .

          ρ is the density of fluid.

         A is the area.

        V is the velocity.

Now when speed is increased by 2 % and all other parameter remains constant except [tex]C_L[/tex] .

Let;s take new value of lift force coefficient is [tex]C_L'[/tex] .

[tex]F_L=\dfrac{1}{2}C_L'\rho A(1.02V)^2[/tex]

                                                                         -----------(2)

Now from equation 1 and 2

[tex]C_L\times V^2=C_L'\times1.0404 V^2[/tex]

⇒[tex]C_L'=0.961C_L[/tex]

So we can say that revised value of  lift force coefficient is 96.1% of original value.

Answer:

Yes ,at low temperature ductile material behaves like brittle.

Explanation:

Yes,as temperature decreases a ductile material can become brittle.

In metals ductile to brittle transition temperature is around 0.1 to 0.2 Tm(melting point temperature) and in ceramics  ductile to brittle transition temperature is around 0.5 to 0.7 Tm(melting point temperature) .

We can easily see that from graph between fracture toughness and  temperature.In the graph when temperature is low then the ductile material is behaving like brittle material.But when temperature is above a particular value then material behaves like ductile.

Answer:

T = 1.17 x [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] N-m

Explanation:

Given :

Gap between the two plates , dy = 1 mm

                                                  dy = 1 x [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] m

Angular velocity of the top plate , ω = 5 rad/s

Diameter of the plate, D = 20 cm

Radius of the plate, R = 10 cm

                                    = 0.1 m

Temperature of the kerosene = 40°C

Viscosity of kerosene at 40°C = 0.0015 Pa-s

Now let us take a small elemental ring of thickness dr at a radius r.

Therefore, area of this elemental ring of dr = 2πrdr

Now linear velocity at radius r = ω x r

                                                   5r m/s

Now applying Newtons law of viscosity we get,

Shear stress, τ = μ.[tex]\frac{du}{dy}[/tex]

   [tex]\Rightarrow \frac{F_{s}}{A}=\mu .\frac{du}{dy}[/tex]

  [tex]\Rightarrow \frac{F_{s}}{A}=\mu .\frac{5r-0}{1\times 10^{-3}}[/tex]

  [tex]\Rightarrow \frac{F_{s}}{A}=\mu \times 10^{3}\times 5r[/tex]

  [tex]F_{s}=\mu \times 10^{3}\times 5r\times 2\pi rdr[/tex]

  [tex]F_{s}=5 \times 10^{3}\times \mu \times r\times 2\pi rdr[/tex]

  [tex]F_{s}=\frac{18849}{400}\times r^{2}dr[/tex]

Now we know torque due to small strip,

 dT = [tex]F_{s}[/tex] x r

 dT = [tex]\frac{18849}{400}\times r^{3}dr[/tex]

Therefore total torque for r=0 to r=R can be calculated. So by integrating,

[tex]\int dT=\int_{0}^{R}\frac{18849}{400}\times r^{3}dr[/tex]

[tex]T = \frac{18849}{400}\times \frac{R^{4}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]T = 47.1225\times \frac{0.1^{4}}{4}[/tex]

T = 1.17 x [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] N-m

Answer:

a)initial quality of water 0.724.

b)mass of water =2.45 kg

c)T=70°F

Explanation:

h=732.5 Btu/lbm

 h=763.33 KJ/kg      (1 Btu=1.05 kj)

T=70°F⇒T=21.1°C

[tex]V=150 in^3=0.002458m^3[/tex]

(a)From steam table

Properties of saturated steam at 21.1°C  

 [tex]h_f= 88.56\frac{KJ}{Kg} ,h_g= 2539.49\frac{KJ}{Kg}[/tex]

To find dryness fraction

[tex]h=h_f+x(h_g-h_f)\frac{KJ}{Kg}[/tex]

[tex]763.33=88.56+x(2539.49-88.56)\frac{KJ}{Kg}[/tex]

x=0.27

So initial quality of water 0.724.

(b)

[tex]v=v_f+x(v_g-v_f)\frac{m^3}{Kg}[/tex]

where v is specific volume

From steam table at 21.1°C  

[tex]v_f= 0.001\frac{m^3}{Kg} ,v_g= 54.13\frac{m^3}{Kg}[/tex]

V=[tex]m_f\times v_f[/tex]

0.002458=[tex]m_f\times 0.001[/tex]

So mass of water =2.45 kg

(c)

Actually water will take latent heat ,it means that heating of will take place at constant temperature and constant pressure.So we can say that final temperature of water will remain same (T=70°F).

Answer:

CASCADE REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS :

cascade refrigeration systems are commonly used in the liquefaction of natural gas and some other gases

examples of cascade refrigeration system: LNG (Liquefied natural gas ) plants mostly used cascade refrigeration system

ADVANTAGES OF CASCADE REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS:

A cascade refrigeration system utilizes multiple linked refrigeration cycles to achieve ultra-low temperatures not possible with a single cycle. It features a cascade control mechanism for precise temperature management, using heat exchangers to interconnect and sequentially cool each stage.

A cascade refrigeration system is a complex refrigeration strategy that employs multiple refrigeration cycles linked together to achieve cooling. Typically, these systems are utilized in environments requiring very low temperatures, which cannot be efficiently or cost-effectively achieved through a single refrigeration cycle. The essence of a cascade system lies in its deployment of two or more refrigeration units in series, each referred to as a "stage," with each successive stage operating at a lower temperature range than its predecessor.

The interconnection between these stages involves a heat exchanger, where a refrigerant from one cycle cools the condenser of the next lower temperature cycle. This process is crucial for achieving the desired low temperatures. One common application is in industrial refrigeration, where maintaining precise low temperatures is critical for process efficiency and product quality.

A key feature of cascade refrigeration systems is the use of cascade control, which enhances system responsiveness to temperature changes and maintains tight control over the process. This control mechanism consists of a master-slave relationship, where the output of one control loop (master) serves as the setpoint for the next (slave), creating a highly integrated control environment. Such setup enables rapid adjustment to changing operating conditions, ensuring the system swiftly responds to disturbances while maintaining the desired temperature levels.

Answer :  

The force needed to move the cylinder is 25.6 N

Given that,  

Length of the cylinder, l = 0.5 m  

Outer diameter of the cylinder, d = 8 cm = 0.08 m  

Outer radius of the cylinder, [tex]r=0.04\ m[/tex]  

Inside diameter of the pipe, d = 8.5 cm = 0.085 m  

Inside radius of the pipe, [tex]r=0.0425\ m[/tex]  

Specific gravity of the oil, [tex]\rho=0.92[/tex]  

Density of oil, [tex]d=\rho\times \rho_w[/tex]

Kinematic viscosity of the oil, [tex]v=5.57\times 10^{-4}\ m^2/s[/tex]  

Velocity of the cylinder, u = 1 m/s  

We need to find the force needed to move the cylinder. Let the force is F.  

Specific gravity is defined as the ratio of the density of the substance to the density of water.  

Kinematic viscosity is the acquired resistance of a fluid when there is no external force is acting except gravity. It is denoted by v.

Absolute viscosity is given by :

[tex]v=\dfrac{\mu}{d}[/tex]

Where, [tex]d[/tex] = density of oil

And [tex]d=\rho\times \rho_w[/tex] (density of oil = specific gravity × density of water )

[tex]d=0.92\times 10^3\ kg/m^3[/tex]

So,  

[tex]\mu=v\times d[/tex]..............(1)

[tex]\mu=5.57\times 10^{-4}\ m^2/s\times 0.92\times 10^3\ kg/m^3[/tex]

[tex]\mu=0.512\ Pa-s[/tex]

The separation between the cylinder and pipe is given by :

[tex]dy=\dfrac{d_p-d_c}{2}=\dfrac{8.5-8}{2}=0.25\ cm=0.0025\ m[/tex]

[tex]d_p\ and\ d_c[/tex] are diameter of pipe and cylinder respectively.  

The mathematical expression for the Newton's law of viscosity can be written as:  

[tex]\tau\propto\dfrac{du}{dy}[/tex]  

[tex]\tau=\mu\times \dfrac{du}{dy}[/tex]..........(2)  

Where  

[tex]\tau[/tex] = Shear stress, [tex]\tau=\dfrac{F}{A}[/tex]............(3)  

[tex]\mu[/tex] = viscosity  

[tex]\dfrac{du}{dy}[/tex] = rate of shear deformation

On rearranging equation (1), (2) and (3) we get :  

[tex]\dfrac{F}{A}=v\times \rho\times \dfrac{du}{dy}[/tex]...............(4)  

A is the area of the cylinder, [tex]A=2\pi rl[/tex]  

Equation (4) becomes :  

[tex]F=v\times \rho\times \dfrac{du}{dy}\times 2\pi rl[/tex]..............(5)

[tex]A=\pi d\times l[/tex]

[tex]A=\pi \times 0.08\ m\times 0.5\ m[/tex]

[tex]A=0.125\ m^2[/tex]

Now, equation (5) becomes :

[tex]F=(v\times \rho)\times \dfrac{du}{dy}\times 2\pi rl[/tex]

[tex]F=(0.512\ Pa-s)\times (\dfrac{1}{0.0025\ m})\times \times 0.125\ m^2[/tex]

F = 25.6 N

[tex]T_{2}[/tex] = 300°C = 273+300 =573 K

Solution:

We know that:

specific heat for gold, c = 0.129 J/g°C

Also, change in entropy, ΔS is given by:

[tex]\Delta S = cln\frac{T_{f}}{T_{i}}[/tex]

After the bars brought in contact with each other,

final temperature, [tex]T_{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{T_{1}+T_{2}}{2}[/tex]

final temperature, [tex]T_{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{323+573}{2}[/tex] = 448K

Now, entropy for first gold bar, using eqn-1

[tex]\Delta S = cln\frac{T_{f}}{T_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta S_{1} = 0.129ln\frac{448}{323}[/tex] =0.042 J/K

[tex]\Delta S_{2}[/tex] = 0.129ln [tex]\frac{448}{573}[/tex] = - 0.032 J/K    

Total entropy generation,

[tex]\Delta S_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\Delta S_{1}[/tex] + [tex]\Delta S_{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta S[/tex] = 0.042 + (- 0.032) = 0.010 J/K

Answer:

Out of the multiple options provided,

option (c) it is the part of a substance

is correct

Explanation:

An atom is basically the smallest particle of matter or we can call it as building block of matter. It is as a brick to the wall or a cell to the body.

Matter is build up of a large number of these atoms. Atoms carbon(C), hydrogen(H), oxygen(O) combines to form molecules such as carbon dioxide([tex]CO_{2}[/tex]), water([tex]H_{2}O[/tex]), methane([tex]CH_{4}[/tex]), etc and then these molecules combines to form a substance.

It cannot be property, neither can it be specification of any material as these two characterizes the material and it can't be grain boundary for sure as grain boundary is the interface between two grain or crystal particles.

This shows that the smallest unit of matter is atom and it is the part of a substance

Given:

[tex]pV^{2}[/tex] = constant                                   (1)

⇒ [tex]p_{1}V_{1}^{2} = p_{2}V_{2}^{2}[/tex]          (2)

[tex]p_{1} = 1 bar = 1\times 10^{5}[/tex]

[tex]p_{2} = 9 bar = 9\times 10^{5}[/tex]

[tex]V_{1} = 0.4 m^{3}[/tex]

[tex]V_{2} = ? m^{3}[/tex]

Solution:

Here, from eqn (1),  the polytropic constant is '2' ( Since, here [tex]pV^{n}[/tex] = [tex]pV^{2}[/tex] )

Now, using eqn (2), we get

[tex]V_{2}^{2} =\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}}\times V_{1}^{2}[/tex]

putting the values in above eqn, we get-

[tex]V_{2}^{2} =\frac{9}{1}\times 0.4^{2}[/tex]

[tex]V_{2} = 1.2 m^{3}[/tex]

Now, work for the process is given by:
