Explanation:
given data
weight = 20 lb
distance = 1 in = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] ft
weight = 30 lb
to find out
Determine the natural frequency and the period of vibration
solution
we first calculate here stiffness k by given formula that is
k = [tex]\frac{weight}{diatnace}[/tex] ..........1
k = [tex]\frac{20}{1/12}[/tex]
k = 240 lb/ft
so
frequency = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex] ..................2
put here value k and mass m = [tex]\frac{weight}{g}[/tex]
frequency = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{240}{30/32.2} }[/tex]
frequency = 16.05 rad/s
and
period of vibration = [tex]\frac{2* \pi }{frequency}[/tex]
period of vibration = [tex]\frac{2* \pi }{16.05}[/tex]
period of vibration = 0.3915 s
and
natural frequency = [tex]\frac{1 }{period of vibration}[/tex]
natural frequency = [tex]\frac{1 }{0.3915}[/tex]
natural frequency = 2.55 Hz
The primary heat transfer mechanism that warms me while I stand next to a campfire is: a)- Conduction b)- Impeadance c)- Convection d)- Radiation
Answer:
convection because it make the surrounding air warm. hence make you feel warm without getting physically connect to it.
Explanation:
convection because it make the surrounding air warm. hence make you feel warm without getting physically connect to it.
Convection is the transition of heat between distinct temperature fields by moving fluid (liquid or gas). Dry air is less thick than moist air and in the presence of a temperature difference, convection currents can form.
Four kilograms of gas were heated at a constant pressure of 12 MPa. The gas volumes were 0.005 m^3 and 0.006 m^3 in the initial and final states, respectively, and 3.9 kJ of heat was transferred to the gas. What is the change in specific internal energy between the initial and final states?
Answer:
Specific change in internal energy is - 2.025 kj/kg.
Explanation:
The process is constant pressure expansion. Apply first law of thermodynamic to calculate the change in internal energy.
Given:
Mass of gas is 4 kg.
Initial volume is 0.005 m³.
Final volume is 0.006 m³.
Pressure is 12 Mpa.
Heat is transfer to the gas. So it must be positive 3.9 kj.
Calculation:
Step1
Work of expansion is calculated as follows:
[tex]W=P(V_{f}-V_{i})[/tex]
[tex]W=12\times10^{6}(0.006-0.005)[/tex]
W=12000 j.
Or,
W=12 Kj.
Step2
Apply first Law of thermodynamic as follows:
Q=W+dU
3.9=12+dU
dU = - 8.1 kj.
Step3
Specific change in internal energy is calculated as follows:
[tex]u=\frac{U}{m}[/tex]
[tex]u=\frac{-8.1}{4}[/tex]
u= - 2.025 kj/kg.
Thus, the specific change in internal energy is - 2.025 kj/kg.
There is 200 kg. of saturated liquid water in a steel tank at 97 C. What is the pressure and volume of the tank?

Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of liquid water 200 kg
Steel tank temperature is 97 degree celcius = 97°C
At T = 97 degree celcius, saturated pressure = 0.91 bar 0r 91 kPa
And also for saturated liquid
Specific volume [tex]\nu[/tex] is 0.00104 m^3/kg
Volume of tank is given as
[tex]V = \nu * m[/tex]
[tex]V = 0.00104 * 200[/tex]
[tex]V = 0.208 m^3[/tex]
A household refrigerator with a COP of 1.2 removes heat from the refrigerated space at a rate of 60kJ/min. Determine: (a) The electric power consumed by the refrigerator, and (b) The rate of heat transfer to the kitchen air.
Answer:
a) Power =50 KJ/min
b)Rate of heat transfer = 110 KJ/min
Explanation:
Given that
COP = 1.2
Heat removed from space Q = 60 KJ/min
As we know that COP of refrigerator is the ratio of heat removed to work input.
Lets take power consume by refrigerator is W
So
COP= Q/W
1.2=60/W
W=50 KJ/min
So the power consume is 50 KJ/min.
From first law of thermodynamic
Heat removed from the kitchen = 50 + 60 KJ/min
Heat removed from the kitchen =110 KJ/min

Answer:
maximum tensile load Pmax is 11.91 ksi
Explanation:
given data
area = 0.65 in²
design factor of safety = 3
to find out
what is the maximum tensile load Pmax
solution
we know here area is 0.65 in² and FOS = 3
so by steel table for rod of annealed AISI 1018 steel table we know σy = 55 ksi
so
we use here design factor formula that is
[tex]\frac{ \sigma y}{FOS} = \frac{Pmax}{area}[/tex] .............1
put here all these value we get Pmax in equation 1
[tex]\frac{55}{3} = \frac{Pmax}{0.65}[/tex]
Pmax = 11.91 ksi
so maximum tensile load Pmax is 11.91 ksi
In a reversing 2-high mill, a series of cold rolling process is used to reduce the thickness of a plate from 45mm down to 20mm. Roll diameter is 600mm and coefficient of friction between rolls and strip 0.15. The specification is that the draft is to be equal on each pass. Determine a) Minimum number of passes required? b) Draft for each pass?

Explanation:
Given
Initial Thickness=45 mm
Final thickness=20 mm
Roll diameter=600 mm
Radius(R)=300 mm
coefficient of friction between rolls and strip ([tex]\nu [/tex])=0.15
maximum draft[tex](d_{max})=\nu ^2R[/tex]
[tex]=0.15^2\times 300=6.75 mm[/tex]
Minimum no of passes[tex]=\frac{45-20}{6.75}=3.70\approx 4[/tex]
(b)draft per each pass
[tex]d=\frac{Initial\ Thickness-Final\ Thickness}{min.\ no.\ of\ passes}[/tex]
[tex]d=\frac{45-20}{4}=6.25 mm[/tex]

Describe the differences between convection and thermal radiation.
Answer:
Explanation:
Convection needs a fluid to transport the heat, while radiation doesn't.
Generally convection transports a lot more heat than radiation.
Since fluids tend to expand, when in a gravitational field such as that of Earth convection tends to move heat upwards while radiation is indifferent to gravity.
Water at room temperature of 20.0°C is poured into an aluminum cylinder which has graduation markings etched on the inside. The reading in the graduations is 300.0 cc. The cylinder with the water in it is then immersed in a constant temperature bath at a temperature of 100°C. What is the reading for the level of water on the graduations of the cylinder after the water and the cylinder reach thermal equilibrium with the bath? The volume coefficient of expansion of water is 2.07 × 10 -4 K -1, and the linear coefficient of expansion of aluminum is 23.0 × 10 -6 K -1. 305.0 cc 303.5 cc 304.5 cc 304.0 cc 303.3 cc
Answer:
304.42 cc
Explanation:
When the aluminum expands the markings will be further apart. If the 300 cc mark was at a distance l0 of the origin at 20 C, at 100 C it will be
l = l0 * (1 + a * (t - t0))
l = l0 * (1 + 23*10^-6 * (100 - 20))
l = l0 * 1.0018
The volume of water would have expanded by
V = V0 (1 + a * (t - t0))
V = 300 (1 + 2.07*10^-4 * (100 - 20))
V = 304.968 cc
Since the markings expanded they would measure
304.968/1.0018 = 304.42 cc
We discover a nearby star with two planets. The first planet has an orbit period of 10 years and is in a circular orbit with radius 106 km. The second planet has an orbit period of 15 years. What is its orbit radius? You may assume it is also in a circular orbit.
Answer: 139 Km.
Explanation:
The question tells us that a planet A has an orbit period of 10 years and its circular orbit has a radius of 106 Km, whilst a planet B has an orbit period of 15 years (also assuming a circular orbit), both orbiting a nearby star.
This information allow us to use the Kepler's 3rd law, for the special case in which the orbit is circular.
Kepler's 3rd law, tells that there exist a direct proportionality between the square of the orbit period, and the cube of the orbit radius (in the more general case, with the cube of the semi-major axis of the elipse), for celestial bodies orbiting a same star.
(like Earth and Mars orbiting Sun).
So, for planet A and planet B (orbiting a same star), we can write the following:
(TA)²/ (TB)² = (rA)³ / (rB)³
Replacing by TA= 10 years, TB= 15 years, rA= 106 Km, and solving for Rb, we get RB= 139 Km.
How much power would you need to cool down a closed, 1 Liter container of water from 100°C to 20°C in 5 minutes? (a) 1.1W (b)1.1kW (c)67kW (d)334 kJ
Answer:
The power required to cool the water is 1.11Kw.
Hence the correct option is (b).
Explanation:
Power needed to cool down is equal to heat extract from the water.
Given:
Volume of water is 1 liter.
Initial temperature is 100C.
Final temperature is 20C.
Time is 5 minutes.
Take density of water as 100 kg/m3.
Specific heat of water is 4.186 kj/kgK.
Calculation:
Step1
Mass of the water is calculated as follows:
[tex]\rho=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]
[tex]1000=\frac{m}{(1l)(\frac{1m^{3}}{1000l})}[/tex]
m=1kg
Step2
Amount of heat extraction is calculated as follows:
[tex]Q=mc\bigtriangleup T[/tex]
[tex]Q=1(4.186kj/kgk)(\frac{1000 j/kgk}{1 kj/kgk})\times(100-20)[/tex]
Q=334880 j.
Step3
Power to cool the water is calculated as follows:
[tex]P=\frac{Q}{t}[/tex]
[tex]P=\frac{334880}{(5min)(\frac{60s}{1min})}[/tex]
P=1116.26W
or
[tex]P=(1116.26W)(\frac{1Kw}{1000 W})[/tex]
P=1.11 Kw.
Thus, the power required to cool the water is 1.11Kw.
Hence the correct option is (b).
The pressure and temperature at the beginning of compression of a cold air-standard Diesel cycle are 100 kPa and 300K, respectively. At the end of the heat addition, the pressure is 7.2 MPa and the temperature is 2250 K. Assume constant specific heats evaluated at 300 K. Determine the cut-off ratio. There is a +/- 5% tolerance.
Answer:
Cut off ratio=2.38
Explanation:
Given that
[tex]T_1=300K[/tex]
[tex]P_1=100KPa[/tex]
[tex]P_2=P_3=7200KPa[/tex]
[tex]T_3=2250K[/tex]
Lets take [tex]T_1[/tex] is the temperature at the end of compression process
For air γ=1.4
[tex]\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=\left(\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\right)^{\dfrac{\gamma -1}{\gamma}}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{T_2}{300}=\left(\dfrac{7200}{100}\right)^{\dfrac{1.4-1}{1.4}}[/tex]
[tex]T_2=1070K[/tex]
At constant pressure
[tex]\dfrac{T_3}{T_2}=\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{2550}{1070}=\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}=2.83[/tex]
So cut off ratio
[tex]cut\ off\ ratio =\dfrac{V_3}{V_2}[/tex]
Cut off ratio=2.38
A round steel bar, 0.02 m in diameter and 0.40 m long, is subjected to a tensile force of 33,000 kg. Y=E= 2E10 kg/m^2. (modulus).Calculate the elongation in meters.
The elongation of the steel bar under the given tensile force is approximately 2.10 millimeters.
The cross-sectional area (A) of the steel bar can be calculated using the formula for the area of a circle:
A = π * r²
Now, let's calculate A:
A = π * (0.01 m)²
≈ π * (0.0001 m²)
≈ 0.000314 m²
Now, we can calculate the elongation (ΔL) using Hooke's Law:
ΔL = (F * L) / (A * E)
Given:
F = 33,000 kg
L = 0.40 m
E = 2 * 10¹⁰ kg/m²
Now, plug in the values:
ΔL = (33,000 kg * 0.40 m) / (0.000314 m² * 2 * 10₈⁰ kg/m²)
Now, perform the calculation
ΔL ≈ (13,200 kg*m) / (6.28 * 10 kg/m²)
ΔL ≈ 2.10 * 10⁻₀ meters

The velocity of a particle along the s-axis is given by v = 14s^7/6 where s is in millimeters and v is in millimeters per second. Determine the acceleration when s is 5.5 millimeters.
Answer:
The acceleration is [tex]2220.00m/s^{2}[/tex]
Explanation:
We know that the acceleration is given by
[tex]a=v\frac{dv}{ds}........................(i)[/tex]
The velocity as a function of position is given by [tex]v=14\cdot s^{7/6}[/tex]
Thus the acceleration as obtained from equation 'i' becomes
[tex]a=14\cdot s^{7/6}\times \frac{d}{ds}(14\cdot s^{7/6})\\\\a=14\cdot s^{7/6}\times \frac{7}{6}\times 14\cdot s^{1/6}\\\\a=\frac{686}{3}\cdot s^{8/6}[/tex]
Hence acceleration at s = 5.5 equals
[tex]a(5.5)=\frac{686}{3}\times (5.5)^{8/6}\\\\\therefore a=2220.00mm/s^{2}[/tex]

we know that critical stress is given as
[tex]\sigma_{cr} = \frac{\pi^2 E}{(l/r)^2}[/tex]
where
r is radius of gyration[tex] = \sqrt{\fra{I}{A}}[/tex]
Here I is moment od inertia [tex]= \frac{b_1^2}{12} - \frac{b_2^2}{12}[/tex]
[tex] I == \frac{3.5^2}{12} - \frac{3.05^2}{12} = 5.294 in^4[/tex]
For hollow steel area is given as [tex]A = b_1^2 -b_2^2[/tex]
[tex]A = 3.5^2 -3.05^2 = 2.948 in^2[/tex]
critical stress [tex]\sigma_{cr} = = \frac{\pi^2\times 29\times 10^6}{((9\times12)/(1.34))^2}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_{cr} = 44061.56 lbs/inc^2[/tex]
considering Structural steel A36
so A36[tex] \sigma_y = 36ksi[/tex]
factor of safety [tex]= \frac{yield\ stress}{critical\ stress}[/tex]
factor of safety =[tex]\frac{36\times10^3}{44061.56} = 0.82[/tex]
factor of safety for A36 structural steel is 0.82

A car enters a circular off ramp (radius of 180 m) at 30 m/s. The car's on - bond accelerometers sense a total acceleration magnitude of 7.07 m/s2. What is the car's acceleration magnitude a2 (the component tangent to its path)?
Answer:
Horizontal acceleration will be [tex]2.07m/sec^2[/tex]
Explanation:
We have given radius of track = 180 m
velocity = 30 m/sec
Total acceleration [tex]a_t=7.07m/sec^2[/tex]
The centripetal;l acceleration which is always normal to the velocity also known as normal acceleration is given by [tex]a_n=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{30^2}{180}=5m/sec^2[/tex]
So the tangent acceleration will be [tex]a_t=7.07-5=2.07m/sec^2[/tex]
A water jet that leaves a nozzle at 60 m/s at a certain flow rate generating power of 250 kW by striking the buckets located on the perimeter of a wheel. Determine the mass flow rate of the jet.
Answer:
The mass flow rate of jet =69.44 kg/s
Explanation:
Given that
velocity of jet v= 60 m/s
Power P=250 KW
As we know that force offered by water F
[tex]F=\rho\ A \ v^2[/tex]
Power P= F.v
So now power given as
[tex]P=\rho\ A \ v^3[/tex]
We know that mass flow rate = ρAv
[tex]P=mass\ flow\ rate\ \times v^2[/tex]
250 x 1000 = mass flow rate x 3600
mass flow rate = 69.44 kg/s
So the mass flow rate of jet =69.44 kg/s
A closed rigid tank contains water initially at 10,000 kPa and 520ºC and is cooled to a final temperature of 270° C. Determine the final pressure of the water.
Answer:
final pressure is 6847.41 kPa
Explanation:
given data:
[tex]P_1 = 10,000 kPa[/tex]
[tex]T_1 =520\ degree\ celcius = 793 K[/tex]
[tex]T_2 = 270 degree celcius = 543 K[/tex]
as we can see all temperature are more than 100 degree, it mean this condition is refered to superheated stream
for ischoric process we know that
[tex]\frac{P_1}{T_1} =\frac{P_2}{T_2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{10*10^6}{793} = \frac{P_2}{543}[/tex]
[tex]P_2 = 6.84741*10^6 Pa[/tex]
final pressure is 6847.41 kPa
The boiler pressure is 38bar and the condenser pressure 0.032 bar.The saturated steam is superheated to 420 oC before entering the turbine. a) Calculate the cycle efficiency of the Rankine cycle. b) Calculate the work ratio of the Rankine cycle.
Answer:
a)38.65%
b)1221KJ/kg
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)
first we calculate the enthalpies in all states
h1=3264kJ/Kg
h2=2043kJ/Kg
h2=h3=105.4kJ/Kg
a)we use the ecuation for efficiency
Efficiency = (h1-h2) / (h1-h4)
Efficiency = (3264-2043) / (3264-105.4)
=0.3865=38.65%
b)we use the ecuation for Wout
Wout = m (h1-h2)
for work ratio=
w = (h1-h2)
w=(3264-2043)=1221KJ/kg

The absolute pressure of an automobile tire is measured to be 320 kPa before a trip and 349 kPa after the trip. Assuming the volume of the tire remains constant at 0.022 m^3, determine the percent increase in the absolute temperature of the air in the tire. The percent increase in the absolute temperature of the air in the tire is_____ %.
Answer:
9%
Explanation:
An ideal gas is one that has its molecules widely dispersed and does not interact with each other, studies have shown that air behaves like an ideal gas, so the state change equation for ideal gases can be applied.
P1V1T2 = P2V2T1
where 1 corresponds to state 1 = 320kPa
and 2 is state 2 = 349kPa.
Given that the volume remains constant the equation is:
P1T2=P2T1
SOLVING for T2/T1
[tex]\frac{T2}{T1} =\frac{P2}{P1} =\frac{349}{320} =1.09\\\\[/tex]
The equation to calculate the percentage increase is as follows
%ΔT=[tex]\frac{(T2-T1)100}{T1} =(\frac{T2}{T1} -1)100=(1.09-1)100=(0.09)100=9%[/tex]
If the local atmospheric pressure is 14.6 psia, find the absolute pressure (in psia) in a column of glycerin (rho = 74.9 lbm/ft^3) at depth of 27in.
Answer:
52.2538 psia
Explanation:
The absolute pressure at depth of 27 inches can be calculated by:
Pressure = Local pressure + Gauge pressure
Also,
[tex]P_{gauge}=\rho\times g\times h[/tex]
Where,
[tex]\rho[/tex] is the density of glycerin ([tex]\rho=74.9\ lbm/ft^3[/tex])
g is the gravitational acceleration = 32.1741 ft/s²
h = 27 in
Also, 1 in = 1/12 ft
So,
h = 27 / 12 ft = 2.25 ft
So,
[tex]P_{gauge}=74.9\times 32.1741\times 2.25\ lbf/ft^2=5422.1402\ lbf/ft^2[/tex]
Also,
1 ft = 12 inch
1 ft² = 144 in²
So,
[tex]P_{gauge}=5422.1402\ lbf/ft^2=\frac {5422.1402\ lbf}{144\ in^2}=37.6538\ lbf/in^2=37.6538\ psia[/tex]
Local pressure = 14.6 psia
So,
Absolute pressure = 14.6 psia + 37.6538 psia=52.2538 psia
An element has two naturally occurring isotopes, isotope 1 with an atomic weight of 78.918 amu and isotope 2 with an atomic weight of 80.916 amu. If the average atomic weight for the element is 79.903 amu, calculate the fraction of occurrences of these two isotopes.
Answer:
The fraction of isotope 1 is 50.7 % and fraction fraction of isotope 1 is 49.2 %.
Explanation:
Given that
Weight of isotope 1 = 78.918 amu
Weight of isotope 2 = 80.916 amu
Average atomic weight= 79.903 amu
Lets take fraction of isotope 1 is x then fraction of isotope 2 will be 1-x.
The total weight will be summation of these two isotopes
79.903 = 78.918 x + 80.916(1-x)
By solving above equation
80.916 - 79.903 = (80.916-78.918) x
x=0.507
So the fraction of isotope 1 is 50.7 % and fraction fraction of isotope 1 is 49.2 %.
Is CO, an air pollutant? How does it differ from other emissions resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels?
Answer:
Explanation:
CO, carbon monoxide is a toxic gas. It casues asphixiation on people and animals by interfering with hemoglobin, not allowing blood to transport oxygen to the cells in the body.
The normal emissions resulting from the combustion of fussil fuels are CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water). Carbon monoxide is formed by an incomplete combustion of fossil fuels or carbon containing fuels in general, this not only produces toxic gas, but also is an inefficient combustion that wastes energy.
Is refrigerator with an ice-maker an open or a closed system? Explain your answer
Answer:
Open system
Explanation:
In refrigerator there is a interaction between refrigerator and environment.
In refrigerator heat moves from the system to the outer environment means there is transfer of heat from one system to environment.
We know that whenever there is transfer of energy or mass from system then it is known as pen system
So refrigerator is a open system
In a tensile test on a steel specimen, true strain is 0.171 at a stress of 263.8 MPa. When true stress is 346.2 MPa, true strain is 0.226. Determine strain hardening exponent, n, in the flow curve for the plastic region of this steel.
Answer:n=0.973
Explanation:
Given
When True strain[tex]\left ( \epsilon _T_1\right )=0.171[/tex]
at [tex]\sigma _1=263.8 MPa[/tex]
When True stress[tex]\left ( \sigma _2\right )[/tex]=346.2 MPa
true strain [tex]\left ( \epsilon _T_2\right )[/tex]=0.226
We know
[tex]\sigma =k\epsilon ^n [/tex]
where [tex]\sigma [/tex]=True stress
[tex]\epsilon [/tex]=true strain
n=strain hardening exponent
k=constant
Substituting value
[tex]263.8=k\left ( 0.171\right )^n------1[/tex]
[tex]346.2=k\left ( 0.226\right )^n-----2[/tex]
Divide 1 & 2 to get
[tex]\frac{346.2}{263.8}=\left ( \frac{0.226}{0.171}\right )^n[/tex]
[tex]1.312=\left ( 1.3216\right )^n[/tex]
Taking Log both side
[tex]ln\left ( 1.312\right )=nln\left ( 1.3216\right )[/tex]
n=0.973
