The percent increase in the absolute temperature of the air in the tire is_____ %.

Answers

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

What is centrifugal force with respect to unbalance? What is the formula used to determine centrifugal force?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]F = \frac{m * v^2}{r}[/tex]

Explanation:

Once the centrifugal forces are equivalent as an object rotates, it is called "in equilibrium." If the point of impact of the moving object does not align with the center of the rotation, unequal centrifugal forces are produced and the rotating component is "out of equilibrium."  

Two conditions for balanced condition are: static and coupled. Static equilibrium relates to a one plane mass in which the unit is balanced by  weight inverse the unbalanced mass

formula used to calculate centrifugal mass is [tex]F = \frac{m * v^2}{r}[/tex]

where, m is mass, v is speed of body. r is radius

Convert each of the following to three significant figures: (a) 20 lb.ft to N.m, (b) 450 Ib/ft^3 to kN/m^3, and (c) 15 ft/h to mm/s.

Answers

Answer:

(a)27.12 N-m (b) 69.96 [tex]KN/m^3[/tex] (c) 1.27 mm/sec

Explanation:

We have to convert

(a) 20 lb-ft to N-m

We know that 1 lb = 4.45 N

So 20 lb = 20×4.45 = 89 N

1 feet = 0.3048 m

So [tex]20lb-ft=20\times 4.45N\times 0.3048N=27.12N-m[/tex]

(b) 450 [tex]lb/ft^3[/tex] to KN/[tex]m^3[/tex]

We know that 1 lb = 4.45 N = 0.0044 KN

[tex]1ft^3=0.0283m^3[/tex]

So [tex]450lb/ft^3=\frac{450\times 0.0044KN}{0.0283m^3}=69.96KN/m^3[/tex]

(c) 15 ft/hr to mm/sec

We know that 1 feet = 0.3048 m = 304.8 mm

And 1 hour = 60×60=3600 sec

So [tex]15ft/h=\frac{15\times 304.8mm}{3600sec}=1.27 mm/sec[/tex]

Answer:

a)20 lb.ft=27.2 N.m

b)[tex]450\dfrac{lb}{ft^3}=70.65\dfrac{KN}{m^3}[/tex]

c)15 ft/h = 1.26 mm/s

Explanation:

a)

As we know that

1 ft.lb= 1.36 N.m

So 20 lb.ft = 1.36 x 20 N.m

20 lb.ft=27.2 N.m

b)

We know that

[tex]1\dfrac{lb}{ft^3}=0.157\dfrac{KN}{m^3}[/tex]

So

[tex]450\dfrac{lb}{ft^3}=450\times 0.157\dfrac{KN}{m^3}[/tex]

[tex]450\dfrac{lb}{ft^3}=70.65\dfrac{KN}{m^3}[/tex]

c)

As we know that

1 ft/h=0.084 mm/s

So

15 ft/h = 0.084 x 15 mm/s

15 ft/h = 1.26 mm/s

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

Answers

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

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

[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

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

You are hitting a nail with a hammer (mass of hammer =1.8lb) the initial velocity of the hammer is 50 mph (73.33 ft/sec). The time of impact is .023 sec. Assuming the nail heads directly in the -j direction, what is the magnitude of the force exerted on the hammer from the nail?

Answers

Answer:

The nail exerts a force of 573.88 Pounds on the Hammer in positive j direction.

Explanation:

Since we know that the force is the rate at which the momentum of an object changes.

Mathematically [tex]\overrightarrow{F}=\frac{\Delta \overrightarrow{p}}{\Delta t}[/tex]

The momentum of any body is defines as [tex]\overrightarrow{p}=mass\times \overrightarrow{v}[/tex]

In the above problem we see that the moumentum of the hammer is reduced to zero in 0.023 seconds thus the force on the hammer is calculated using the above relations as

[tex]\overrightarrow{F}=\frac{m(\overrightarrow{v_{f}}-\overrightarrow{v_{i}})}{\Delta t}[/tex]

[tex]\overrightarrow{F}=\frac{m(0-(-73.33)}{0.23}=\frac{1.8\times 73.33}{0.23}=573.88Pounds[/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.

Answers

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

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.

Answers

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

[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]

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.

Answers

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

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

Answers

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).

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.

Answers

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.

A 3 kg model rocket is launched vertically and reaches
andaltitude of 60 m wih a speed of 28 m/s at the end of flight,
timet=0. As the rocket approaches its maximum altitude itexplodes
into two parts of masses Ma = 1 kg and Mb = 2 kg. Part A is
observed to strike the ground 74.4 m west of the launchpoint at t =
5.85 s. Determine the position of part B at thattime.

Answers

Answer:

Part B will be 37.2 m to the east of the launch point at an altitude of 80.8 m

Explanation:

At t0 the rocket is at 60 m and has a speed of 28 m/s.

Then it explodes when it reaches max altitude.

Since the rocket will have its engine off after t0 it will be in free fall.

It will be affected only by the acceleration of gravity, so it moves with constant acceleration, we can use this equation.

Y(t) = Y0 + V0*t + 1/2*a*t^2

Y0 = 60 m

V0 - 28 m/s

a = g = -9.81

We also have the equation for speed:

V(t) = V0 + a*t

And we know that when it reaches its highest point it ill have a speed of zero.

0 = V0 + a * t

a * t = -V0

t = -V0 / a

t = -28 / -9.81 = 2.85 s

This is the time after t0 when the engine ran of of fuel.

Using this value on the position equation:

Y(2.85) = 60 + 28*2.85 + 1/2*(-9.81)*2.85^2 = 100 m

At an altitude of 100 m it explodes in two parts. An explosion is like a plastic collision in reverse, momentum is conserved.

Since the speed of the rocket is zero at that point, the total momentum will be zero too.

Part A, with a mass of 1 kg fell 74.4 m west of the launch point. It fell in a free fall with a certain initial speed given to it by the explosion. This initial speed had vertical and horizontal components.

First the horizontal. In the horizontal there is no acceleration (ignoring aerodynamic drag).

X(t) = X1 + Vx1 * (t - t1)

X1 = 0 because it was right aboce the launch point. t1 is the moment of the explosion.

t1 = 2.85 s

We know it fell to the ground at t = 5.85 s

Vx1 * (t2 - t1) = X(t2) - X1

Vx1 = (X(t2) - X1) / (t2 - t1)

Vx1 = (74.4 - 0) / (5.85 - 2.85) = 24.8 m/s

Now the vertical speed

Y(t2) = Y1 + Vy1*(t2 - t1) + 1/2*a*(t2 - t1)^2

Vy1*(t2 - t1) = Y(t2) - 1/2*a*(t2 - t1)^2 - Y1

Y(t2) = 0 because it is on the ground.

Vy1 = (-1/2*a*(t2 - t1)^2 - Y1) / (t2 - t1)

Vy1 = (-1/2*-9.81*(5.85 - 2.85)^2 - 100) / (5.85 - 2.85) = -18.6 m/s

If the part A had a speed of (24.8*i - 18.6*j) m/s, we calcultate the speed of part 2

Horizontal:

vxA * mA + vxB * mB = 0

-vxA * mA = vxB * mB

vxB = -vxA * mA / mB

vxB = -24.8 * 1 / 2 = -12.4 m/s

Vertical:

vyA * mA + vyB * mB = 0

-vyA * mA = vyB * mB

vyB = -vyA * mA / mB

vyB = -(-16.6) * 1 / 2 = 8.3 m/s

Now that we know its speed and position at t1 we can know ehre it will be at t2

X(t) = 0 - 12.4 * (t - t1)

X(5.85) = -12.4 * (5.85 - 2.85) = -37.2 m

Y(t) = 100 + 8.3 * (t - t1) + 1/2 * (-9.8) * (t - t1)^2

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?

Answers

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.

Determine the mass of a car that weight 3,500 lbs both in slugs and kilograms. The answer should be in kilograms.

Answers

Answer:

The mass of car in slug =108.5 slug.

The mass of car in kilogram =1575 Kg.

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of car = 3500 lbs

We know that

1 lbs =0.031 slug

So

3500 lbs = 0.031 x 3500 slug

So the mass of car in slug =108.5 slug.

We know that

1 lbs =0.45 kilograms

so

3500 lbs = 3500 x 0.45 Kg

So the mass of car in kilogram =1575 Kg.

Describe the differences between convection and thermal radiation.

Answers

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.

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.

Answers

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

What is 1000 kJ/sec in watts?

Answers

Answer:

1000000 watts

Explanation:

1 kJ/sec= 1000 watts (or 1 watt= 0.001 kJ/sec)

Therefore,

1000 kJ/sec = 1000 x 1000 watts

                    = 1000000 watts

A kJ/sec (Kilojoule per second) is a unit used to measure power. It comes from the SI (Standard International) unit J/sec (Joule per second).

1 J/sec= 1 watt

Power is the energy transferred by a force per unit of time.

Energy is measured in Joules.

In this question, we are working out how much energy is transferred in watts.

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.

Answers

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

Is refrigerator with an ice-maker an open or a closed system? Explain your answer

Answers

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
