A sand has a natural water content of 5% and bulk unit weight of 18.0 kN/m3. The void ratios corresponding to the densest and loosest state of this soil are 0.51 and 0.87. Find the relative density and degree of saturation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Relative density = 0.545

Degree of saturation = 24.77%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Water content, w = 5%

Bulk unit weight = 18.0 kN/m³

Void ratio in the densest state, [tex]e_{min}[/tex] = 0.51

Void ratio in the loosest state, [tex]e_{max}[/tex] = 0.87

Now,

Dry density, [tex]\gamma_d=\frac{\gamma_t}{1+w}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{18}{1+0.05}[/tex]

= 17.14 kN/m³

Also,

[tex]\gamma_d=\frac{G\gamma_w}{1+e}[/tex]

here, G = Specific gravity = 2.7 for sand

[tex]17.14=\frac{2.7\times9.81}{1+e}[/tex]

or

e = 0.545

Relative density = [tex]\frac{e_{max}-e}{e_{max}-e_{min}}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{0.87-0.545}{0.87-0.51}[/tex]

= 0.902

Also,

Se = wG

here,

S is the degree of saturation

therefore,

S(0.545) = (0.05)()2.7

or

S = 0.2477

or

S = 0.2477 × 100% = 24.77%

The net potential energy EN between two adjacent ions, is sometimes represented by the expression

EN = -C/r + Dexp (-r/p)

in which r is the interionic separation and C, D, and rho are constants whose values depend on the specific material.

Derive an expression for the bonding energy E0 in terms of the equilibrium interionic separation r0 and the constants D and rho using the following procedure:
1. Differentiate EN with respect to r, and then set the resulting expression equal to zero.
2. Solve for C in terms of D, rho and r0.
3. Determine the expression for E0 by substitution for C in the equation above.
What is the equation that represents the correct expression for E0?

Answers

The expression for the bonding energy E₀ in terms of the equilibrium interionic separation r₀ and the given constants is;

E₀ = rD[(exp(-r₀/ρ) + exp(-r/ρ)] - EN/r₀

Bonding Energy and Net Potential Energy

We are given the expression;

EN = -C/r + Dexp(-r/ρ)

where;

EN is net potential energy

r is the interionic separation

C, D, and rho(ρ) are constants whose values depend on the specific material.

The formula for the bonding energy is usually;

E₀ = -C/r₀ + D exp(-r₀/ρ)

Step 1; We are to differentiate EN with respect to r. Thus, we have;

dEN/dr = C/r² - D exp(-r/p)

Step 2; We are to solve for C in terms of D, rho(ρ) and r₀. Thus;

E₀ + (C/r₀) = -D*exp(-r₀/ρ)

⇒ C/r₀ = -Dexp(-r₀/ρ) - E₀

Thus, multiplying both sides by r₀ gives;

C = -r₀(Dexp(-r₀/ρ) + E₀)

Step 3; We are to determine the expression for E₀ by substitution for C in the equation given. This gives us;

EN = -r₀(Dexp(-r₀/ρ) + E₀)/r + Dexp(-r/ρ)

EN = r₀*D*exp(-r₀/ρ) - (r₀E₀/r) + D*exp(-r/ρ)

EN + (r₀E₀/r) = r₀*D*exp(-r₀/ρ) + D*exp(-r/ρ)

r₀E₀/r = D[(exp(-r₀/ρ) + exp(-r/ρ)] - EN

Thus;  E₀ = rD[(exp(-r₀/ρ) + exp(-r/ρ)] - EN/r₀

A rectangular block of material with shear modulus G= 620 MPa is fixed to rigid plates at its top and bottom surfaces. Thelower plate remains fixed while the upper plate is subjected to a horizontal force, P. If the top plate displaces 2 mm horizontally, determine:

a. the average shear strain in the material
b. the force P exerted on the upper plate.

Answers

Answer:

γ[tex]_{xy}[/tex] =0.01, P=248 kN

Explanation:

Given Data:

displacement = 2mm ;

height = 200mm ;

l = 400mm ;

w = 100 ;

G = 620 MPa = 620 N//mm²;    1MPa = 1N//mm²

a. Average Shear Strain:

The average shear strain can be determined by dividing the total displacement of plate by height

γ[tex]_{xy}[/tex] = displacement / total height

     = 2/200 = 0.01

b. Force P on upper plate:

Now, as we know that force per unit area equals to stress

τ = P/A

Also,  τ = Gγ[tex]_{xy}[/tex]

By comapring both equations, we get

P/A = Gγ[tex]_{xy}[/tex]   ------------ eq(1)

First we need to calculate total area,

A = l*w = 400 * 100= 4*10^4mm²

By putting the values in equation 1, we get

P/40000 = 620 * 0.01

P = 248000 N or 2.48 *10^5 N or 248 kN

A water jet that leaves a nozzle at 95 m/s at a flow rate of 120 kg/s is to be used to generate power by striking the buckets located on the perimeter of a wheel. Determine the power generation potential of this water jet. The power generation potential of the water jet is kW.

Answers

Answer:

P= 541.5 kW.

Explanation:

Given that

velocity of water after leaving the nozzle ,v= 95 m/s

The mass flow rate of the water , m= 120 kg/s

The power generated P is given as

[tex]P=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

[tex]P=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 120\times 95^2\ W[/tex]

P=541500  W

The  power in kW will be 541.5 kW.

Therefore the answer will be 541.5 kW

P= 541.5 kW.

Final answer:

The power generation potential of the water jet is 542.25 kW.

Explanation:

To determine the power generation potential of the water jet, we need to calculate the kinetic energy of the water jet and then convert it to power. The kinetic energy of the water jet can be calculated using the formula KE = 0.5 * m * v^2, where m is the mass flow rate of the water and v is the velocity of the water jet. Given that the flow rate is 120 kg/s and the velocity is 95 m/s, we can calculate the kinetic energy to be KE = 0.5 * 120 * 95^2 = 0.5 * 120 * 9025 = 542,250 J/s.

To convert the kinetic energy to power, we divide by the time taken to deliver the energy. Since the flow rate is given in kg/s, we can assume the time taken is 1 second. Therefore, the power generation potential of the water jet is 542,250 J/s, or 542.25 kW.

M_AD = 1359.17 lb-in

Explanation:

Given:

- T_ef = 46 lb

Find:

- Moment of that force T_ef about the line joining points A and D.

Solution:

- Find the position of point E:

                           mag(BC) = sqrt ( 48^2 + 36^2) = 60 in

                           BE / BC = 45 / 60 = 0.75

Hence,                E = < 0.75*48 , 96 , 36*0.75> = < 36 , 96 , 27 > in

- Find unit vector EF:

                           mag(EF) = sqrt ( (21-36)^2 + (96+14)^2 + (57-27)^2 ) = 115 in

                           vec(EF) = < -15 , -110 , 30 >

                           unit(EF) = (1/115) * < -15 , -110 , 30 >

- Tension            T_EF = (46/115) * < -15 , -110 , 30 > = < -6 , -44 , 12 > lb

- Find unit vector AD:

                           mag(AD) = sqrt ( (48)^2 + (-12)^2 + (36)^2 ) = 12*sqrt(26) in

                           vec(AD) = < 48 , -12 , 36 >

                           unit(AD) = (1/12*sqrt(26)) * < 48 , -12 , 36 >

                           unit (AD) = <0.7845 , -0.19612 , 0.58835 >

Next:

                           M_AD = unit(AD) . ( E x T_EF)

Also, we can get that;

BC² = 48² + 36²

BC = √(48² + 36²)

BC = 60 in

Also, from similar triangles, we will have the coordinate of E as;

E(36, 96, 27)

Position of Vector of EF is;

EF = {(21 - 36)i + (-14 - 96)j + (57 - 27)k} in

EF = {-15i - 110j + 30k} in

Magnitude of EF from online calculation = 115 in

Force along cable EF is;

F_EF = 46{(-15i - 110j + 30k)/115}

F_EF = {-6i - 44j + 12k} lb

Position vector of AE is {36i + 96j + 27k} in

Position vector of AD is {48i - 12j + 36k} in

Magnitude of AD = 61.188 N

Unit vector of AD; λ_ad = {48i - 12j + 36k}/61.188

λ_ad = 0.7845i - 0.1961j + 0.5883k

For flow over a plate, the variation of velocity with vertical distance y from the plate is given as u(y) = ay − by2 where a and b are constants. Choose the correct relation for the wall shear stress in terms of a, b, and μ.

Answers

For flow over a plate, the variation of velocity with vertical distance y from the plate, the correct relation for the wall shear stress is  [tex]\( \tau = \mu (a - 2by) \)[/tex]. The correct option is B.

The wall shear stress ([tex]\( \tau \)[/tex]) for flow over a plate is given by the following relation, assuming the fluid has constant viscosity ([tex]\( \mu \)[/tex]):

[tex]\[ \tau = \mu \frac{du}{dy} \][/tex]

Where:

[tex]\( \mu \)[/tex] = dynamic viscosity of the fluid,

[tex]\( \dfrac{du}{dy} \)[/tex] = rate of change of velocity with respect to the vertical distance (y) from the plate.

In your case, the velocity profile [tex]\( u(y) = ay - by^2 \)[/tex] is given. To find the rate of change of velocity with respect to y, we differentiate [tex]\( u(y) \)[/tex] with respect to y:

[tex]\[ \frac{du}{dy} = a - 2by \][/tex]

Now, substitute this into the formula for wall shear stress:

[tex]\[ \tau = \mu \left( a - 2by \right) \][/tex]

So, the correct relation for the wall shear stress ([tex]\( \tau \)[/tex]) in terms of a, b, and [tex]\( \mu \)[/tex] is:

[tex]\[ \tau = \mu \left( a - 2by \right) \][/tex]

Consider a Venturi with a throat-to-inlet area ratio of 0.8, mounted on the side of an airplane fuselage. The airplane is in flight at standard sea level.
If the static pressure at the throat is 2100 lb/ft³, calculate the velocity of the airplane. Note that standard sea-level density and pressure are 1.23 kg/m³ (0.002377 slug/ft³) and 1.01 x 10⁵ N/m2 (2116lb/ft³), respectively.

Answers

Defining the radius of area throat to inlet we would have that the proportional relationship would be [tex]\frac{A_2}{A_1}.[/tex]

This equation or relationship is obtained from continuity where

[tex]A_1V_1 = A_2V_2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{V_2}{V_1} = \frac{A_2}{A_1}= 0.8[/tex]

Now applying the Bernoulli equation between inlet and throat section we have,

[tex]\frac{p_1}{\rho g}+ \frac{v_1^2}{2g}+z_1=\frac{p_2}{\rho g}+ \frac{v_2^2}{2g}+z_2[/tex]

Here,

[tex]z_1 = z_2[/tex]

Then for a Venturi duct, the velocity of the airplane [tex]V_1[/tex] will be

[tex]V = \sqrt{\frac{2(p_1-p_2)}{\rho[(\frac{A_1}{A_2})^2-1]}}[/tex]

Our values are,

[tex]\frac{A_2}{A_1} = 0.8[/tex]

[tex]\rho = 0.002377slug/ft^3[/tex]

[tex]p_1 = 2116lb/ft^2[/tex]

[tex]p_2 = 2100lb/ft^2[/tex]

Replacing,

[tex]V= \sqrt{\frac{2(2116-2100)}{(0.002377)[(\frac{1}{0.8})^2-1]}}[/tex]

[tex]V = 154.7ft/s[/tex]

Therefore the velocity of the airplane is 154.7ft/s

(a) the pf of the second load,
(b) the parallel element required to correct the pf to 0.9 lagging for the two loads.

Answers

Answer: a) 0.948 b) 117.5µf

Explanation:

Given the load, a total of 2.4kw and 0.8pf

V= 120V, 60 Hz

P= 2.4 kw, cos θ= 80

P= S sin θ - (p/cos θ) sin θ

= P tan θ(cos^-1 (0.8)

=2.4 tan(36.87)= 1.8KVAR

S= 2.4 + j1. 8KVA

1 load absorbs 1.5 kW at 0.707 pf lagging

P= 1.5 kW, cos θ= 0.707 and θ=45 degree

Q= Ptan θ= tan 45°

Q=P=1.5kw

S1= 1.5 +1.5j KVA

S1 + S2= S

2.4+j1.8= 1.5+1.5j + S2

S2= 0.9 + 0.3j KVA

S2= 0.949= 18.43 °

Pf= cos(18.43°) = 0.948

b.) pf to 0.9, a capacitor is needed.

Pf = 0.9

Cos θ= 0.9

θ= 25.84 °

(WC) V^2= P (tan θ1 - tan θ2)

C= 2400 ( tan (36. 87°) - tan (25.84°)) /2 πf × 120^2

f=60, π=22/7

C= 117.5µf

In this exercise we have to use the parallel plate and capacitor knowledge to find the values, so:

a) 0.948

b) 117.5µf

What is a capacitor?

Capacitor is a component that stores electrical charges in an electrical field, accumulating an internal electrical charge imbalance.

Given the information that:

total of 2.4 kW at 0.8 pf absorbs 1.5 kW at a 0.707 pf V= 120V, 60 HzP= 2.4 kw, cos θ= 80

Air is compressed slowly in a piston–cylinder assembly from an initial state where p1 = 1.4 bar, V1 = 4.25 m3 , to a final state where p2 = 6.8 bar. During the process, the relation between pressure and volume follows pV = constan

Answers

The work done by the gas is -940 kJ

Explanation:

In this process, we are told that the product of pressure and volume remains constant:

[tex]pV=const.[/tex]

so we can write

[tex]p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2[/tex]

where

[tex]p_1 = 1.4 bar[/tex] is the initial pressure

[tex]p_2 = 6.8 bar[/tex] is the final pressure

[tex]V_1=4.25 m^2[/tex] is the initial volume

Solving for [tex]V_2[/tex], we find the final volume:

[tex]V_2=\frac{p_1V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(1.4)(4.25)}{6.8}=0.875 m^3[/tex]

Now by looking at the equation of state of an ideal gas:

[tex]pV=nRT[/tex] (1)

we notice that since [tex]pV=const.[/tex], this means that also the absolute temperature of the gas T remains constant (because the number of moles n does not change). Therefore this is an isothermal process: the work done in an isothermal process is given by

[tex]W=nRTln(\frac{V_2}{V_1})[/tex]

And by looking again at (1), we  can substitute (nRT) with (pV), so we get

[tex]W=p_1 V_1 ln (\frac{V_2}{V_1})[/tex]

Converting the pressure into SI units,

[tex]p_1 = 1.4 bar = 1.4\cdot 10^5 Pa[/tex]

So the work done is

[tex]W=(1.4\cdot 10^5)(4.25)ln(\frac{0.875}{4.25})=-9.4\cdot 10^5 J[/tex]

Which means -940 kJ. This value is negative since the work is done by the surroundings on the gas (because the gas is compressed).

(c) If the volume charge density at z = 0.15 m is −2000 C/m3, find the charge velocity there.

Answer:

a. -39.8μA

b. -15.81mC/m³

c. 29.05m/s

Explanation:

Given

Density = J = −10^6z^1.5az A/m²

Region: 0 ≤ ρ ≤ 20 µm

ρ ≥ 20 µm

J = 0.

a. Total current is calculated by.

J * ½((ρ1)² - (ρ0)²) * 2 π * φdza.

Where J = Density = -10^6 * z^1.5

ρ1 = Upper bound of ρ = 20

ρ0 = Lower bound of ρ = 0

π = 22/7

φdza = 10^-6

z = 0.1

Total current

= -10^6 * z^1.5 * ½(20² - 0²) * 2 * 22/7 * 10^-6

= 10^6 * 0.1^1.5 * ½(20² - 0²) * 2 * 22/7 * 10^-6

= −39.7543477278310

= -39.8μA

b. Calculating velocity charge density at (ρv)

Density (J) = ρv * V

Where J = Density = -10^6 * z^1.5

V = 2 * 10^6

z = 0.1

Substitute the above values

-10^6 * 0.1 ^1.5 = ρv * 2 * 10^6

ρv = (-10^6 * 0.1^1.5)/(2 * 10^6)

ρv = -0.1^1.5/(2)

ρv = -0.015811388300841

ρv = -0.01581 --------- Approximated

ρv = -15.81mC/m³

c. Calculating Velocity

Where J = -10^6 * z^1.5

z = 0.15

J = -10^6 * 0.15^1.5

J = -58094.75019311125

A) Total current is gotten from the formula;

I_tot = J × ½((ρ1)² - (ρ0)²) × 2π × φdza.

Where;

J is current Density = −10⁶z^(1.5) A/m²

ρ1 is Upper bound of ρ = 20 µm

ρ0 is Lower bound of ρ = 0 µm

 φdza = 10⁻⁶

z = 0.1

Thus plugging in the relevant values, we have;

Total current;

I_tot = -10⁶ × 0.1^(1.5) * ½(20² - 0²) × 2 × π × 10⁻⁶

I_tot ≈ -39.8μA

B) Formula to find ρv is;

ρv = J/V

where;

J is current density = −10⁶z^(1.5) A/m²

 V is charge velocity = 2 × 10⁶ m/s

z = 0.1

Thus;

 ρv = ( −10⁶ × 0.1^(1.5))/(2 × 10^6)

ρv = -¹/₂(0.1^(1.5))

ρv ≈  -0.01581 C/m³

Thus;

ρv = -15.81 mC/m³

C) Formula for the charge velocity is;

Charge Velocity = J/V

Where;

J is current density = −10⁶z^(1.5) A/m²

V is volume charge density = -2000 C/m³

At z = 0.15;

Charge velocity = (−10⁶ × 0.15^(1.5))/(-2000)

Charge velocity ≈ 29.05m/s

To use Allowable Stress Design to calculate required dimensions using a specified factor of safety. A structural element that carries a load must be designed so that it can support the load safely. There are several reasons why an element may fail at loads that are less than the theoretical limit. For example, material properties may not exactly equal the reference values used in the design. The actual loading may differ from the design loading. The exact dimensions of the member may be different from the nominal values. These scenarios, and others, make it important to design structural members so that the expected load is less than the expected load that would make the member fail. One method of doing this uses a factor of safety. The allowed load Fallow can be related to the load that causes failure, Ffail, using a constant called the factor of safety, F.S.=FfailFallow, which should be larger than 1. For preliminary analysis, the stresses that are developed are assumed to be constant, so that the load and the stress are related by N=σA or V=τA, where A is the area subjected to the load.

An anchor rod with a circular head supports a load Fallow = 11 kN by bearing on the surface of a plate and passing through a hole with diameter h = 2.6 cm. One way the anchor could break is by the rod failing in tension.
What is the minimum required diameter of the rod if the factor of safety for tension failure is F.S. = 1.6, given that the material fails in tension at σfail = 60 MPa? Assume a uniform stress distribution.

Answers

Final answer:

To determine the minimum required diameter of an anchor rod, we must calculate the allowable tensile stress using the factor of safety and the ultimate failure stress, then solve the area formula for a circular cross-section for the rod's diameter.

Explanation:

To calculate the minimum required diameter of an anchor rod designed using Allowable Stress Design and considering a factor of safety (F.S.), we must ensure that the designed stress ( au_{allow}) does not exceed the allowable stress. The allowable stress is derived from the material's ultimate (failure) stress ( au_{fail}) divided by the factor of safety (F.S.). Given the allowable load (F_{allow}) the rod must support and the factor of safety (F.S.), the failure load (F_{fail}) is F_{fail}= F_{allow} \times F.S.

Since  au_{allow} = F_{allow} / A, rearranging to solve for the cross-sectional area (A) needed gives us A = F_{allow} /  au_{allow}. And for a circular cross-section rod, A = \pi (d/2)^{2}, where d is the diameter of the rod.

With the failure stress given as  au_{fail} = 60 MPa and the factor of safety F.S. = 1.6, the allowable tensile stress ( au_{allow}) is  au_{allow} =  au_{fail} / F.S. = 60 MPa / 1.6.

Using the formula A = \pi (d/2)^{2} and the given load F_{allow} = 11 kN, we can solve for d. First, we convert the load to Newtons (since 1 kN = 1000 N), then substitute the values of F_{allow} and  au_{allow} into the area equation and solve for the diameter (d).

Upon calculating d, we obtain the minimum required diameter of the rod that will ensure it supports the given load with the required factor of safety.

Factor of safety: The factor of safety is defined as the ratio of the load that causes failure to the load the member can safely support. In this case, the factor of safety for tension failure is given as 1.6. A factor of safety larger than 1 ensures structural stability.

Calculating required diameter: Using the allowable stress design approach, the minimum required diameter of the rod can be calculated to ensure it can support the load safely without failing in tension. Given the material failure stress and the factor of safety, the required diameter can be determined based on uniform stress distribution.

Engineering analysis: Engineers use factors of safety and stress calculations to design structural elements that can safely support loads. Understanding stress, strain, and material properties are essential in ensuring the structural integrity and safety of a design.

A clay sample has a wet mass of 417 g, a volume of 276 cm3, and a specific gravity of 2.70. When oven dried, the mass becomes 225 g. Calculate: a) The water content, b) the void ratio, and c) the degree of saturation.

Answers

a) The water content is 85.3%.

b) The void ratio is approximately 2.31.

c) The degree of saturation is 99.6%.

How do we determine the water content?

a) We shall calculate the water content (w) using the formula:

[tex]\frac{M_{w} }{Ms} * 100[/tex]

where:

[tex]M_{w}[/tex] = mass of water

[tex]M_{s}[/tex] = mass of solids (oven-dried mass)

Given:

[tex]M_{w}[/tex] = [tex]417g -225g = 192g[/tex]

[tex]M_{s}[/tex] = [tex]225g[/tex]

We shall now calculate water content (w):

[tex]w = (192/225) * 100[/tex]

[tex]w = 0.853 * 100[/tex]

[tex]w = 85.3[/tex]%

Thus,  the water content is 85.3%.

b) We shall compute the Void ratio (e) by using the formula:

[tex]e = \frac{V_{v} }{V_{s} }[/tex]

where:

[tex]V_{v} =[/tex] volume of voids

[tex]V_{s} =[/tex] volume of solids

Let us find [tex]V_{s}[/tex] first:

[tex]V_{s} =[/tex] [tex]M_{s} /[/tex]Specific gravity * Density of water

[tex]V_{s} = \frac{225g}{2.70 * 1g/cm^{3} }[/tex]

[tex]V_{s} = \frac{225g}{2.70g/cm^{3} }[/tex]

[tex]V_{s} = 83.33cm^{3}[/tex]

[tex]V_{v} = V_{t} - V_{s}[/tex]

[tex]V_{v} = 276cm^{3} - 83.33cm^{3}[/tex]

= 192.67cm³

We calculate e (Void ratio):

e = [tex]192.67/83.33[/tex]

[tex]e = 2.31.[/tex]

Hence, the void ratio is ≈ 2.31.

c) We can find the degree of saturation (S) using the formula:

[tex]S = \frac{V_{w} }{V_{v} }[/tex]

Given:

[tex]V_{w}[/tex] = 192cm³

And we have [tex]V_{v}[/tex] = 192.67cm³

[tex]S = (192/192.67) * 100[/tex]

[tex]S = 0.996 * 100[/tex]

S = 99.6%

So, the degree of saturation is 99.6%.

Suppose you were a heating engineer and you wished to consider a house as a dynamic system. Without a heater, the average temperature in the house would clearly vary over a 24-h period. What might you consider for inputs, outputs, and state variables for a simple dynamic model? How would you expand your model so that it would predict temperatures in several rooms of the house? How does the installation of a thermostatically controlled heater change your model?

Answers

Answer:

As a heating engineer and considering a house as a dynamic system , and that without a heater, the average temperature in the house would vary over a 24-h period.

What might you consider for inputs, outputs, and state variables for a simple dynamic model?

State variables: according to the weather conditions of the area where the house was built:

State variable # 1: minimum temperture during a day in an specific season (*4);

State variable # 2: maximum temperature during the day, in an specific season (*4) as well;

State variable # 3: average temperature during the day in an specific season (*4).

That makes 16 state variables all of them in Centigrade degrees.

Input variables:

# 1: one degree over each of the state variables given.

# 2: one degree below each of the state variables, all of them in Centigrade           degrees.

Output variables:

# 1 are the temperatures reached after adding one degree to each of the input variables.

# 2 are the temperatures reached after decreasing one degree, all of them in Centigrade degrees.

How would you expand your model so that it would predict temperatures in several rooms of the house?

I would add output variables in a "Y" system to predict temperatures in several rooms of the house.

How does the installation of a thermostatically controlled heater change your model?

It would change on the "Y" variables as they will get a control system  designed for sensors to produce from some input variables to make the system respond.

A heat engine does 210 J of work per cycle while exhausting 440 J of waste heat. Part A What is the engine's thermal efficiency? Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

The engine's thermal efficiency is 0.32

Explanation:

Thermal efficiency = work done ÷ quantity of heat supplied

Work done = 210 J

Quantity of heat supplied = work done + waste heat = 210 + 440 = 650 J

Thermal efficiency = 210 ÷ 650 = 0.32

On a nonprecision approach, what is the maximum acceptable descent rate during the final stages of the approach (below 1,000 ft. AGL)?

Answers

Answer: For non-precision approaches, the maximum acceptable descent rate acceptable should be one that ensures the aircraft reaches the minimum descent altitude at a distance from the threshold that allows landing in the touch down zone. Otherwise, a decent rate greater than 1000fpm is unacceptable.

Explanation: For non-precision approaches, a descent rate should be used that ensures the aircraft reaches the minimum decent altitude at a distance from the threshold that allows landing in the touchdown zone (TDZ) . On many instrument approach procedures, this distance is annotated by a visual descent point (VDP) If no VDP is annotated, calculate a normal descent point to the TDZ. To determine the required rate of descent, subtract the TDZ elevation (TDZE) from the final approach fix (FAF) altitude and divide this by the time inbound. For illustration, if the FAF altitude is 1,000 feet mean sea level (MSL), the TDZE is 200 feet MSL and the time inbound is two minutes, an 400 fpm rate of descent should be applied.

A descent rate greater than approximately 1,000 fpm is unacceptable during the final stages of an approach (below 1,000 feet AGL). Operational experience and research shows that this is largely due to a human perceptual limitation that is independent of the airplane or helicopter type. As a result, operational practices and techniques must ensure that descent rates greater than 1,000 fpm are not permitted in either the instrument or visual portions of an approach and landing operation.

A driver is traveling at 52 mi/h on a wet road. an object is spotted on the road 415 ft ahead and the driver is able to come to a stop just before hitting the object. assuming standard perception/ reaction time and practical stopping distance, determine the grade of the road.

Answers

Answer:

G = 0.424

Explanation:

Ds = ( 0.278tr * V ) + (0.278 * V²)/ ( 19.6* ( f ± G))

Where Ds = stopping sight distance = 415miles = 126.5m

G = absolute grade road

V = velocity of vehicle = 52miles/hr

f = friction = 0 because the road is wet

tr = standard perception / reaction time = 2.5s

So therefore:

Substituting to get G

We have

2479.4G = 705.6G + 751.72

1773.8G = 751.72

G = 751.72/1773.8

G = 0.424

Based on the calculations, the grade of the road is equal to 2.43 %.

Given the following data:

Velocity = 52 mi/h to km/h = 83.6859 km/h.

Assumed data:

Acceleration = 3.5 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]Standard perception/reaction time = 2.5 secondsStopping distance = 135 meters.

The formula for stopping distance.

Mathematically, the stopping distance for an inclined surface with a coefficient of friction is given by this formula:

[tex]SD = 0.278Vt + \frac{V^2}{254} (f \pm 0.01G)[/tex]

Where:

V is the velocity.t is the perception/reaction timeG is the grade of a surface.f is the coefficient of friction.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]135 = 0.278 \times 83.6859 \times 2.5 + [\frac{83.69^2}{254} \times (\frac{3.5}{9.8} + 0.01G)]\\\\135 = 58.14 + [27.58 \times (0.36 + 0.01G)]\\\\135 = 58.14 +9.93+0.2758G\\\\0.2758G=135 - 58.14 -9.93\\\\0.2757G=66.9923\\\\G=\frac{66.93}{0.2757}[/tex]

(a) If Y is the force, i.e. (Y = F), find an expression for the power in the element? (b) If Y is the linear momentum, i.e. (Y = p), find an expression for the energy stored in the element?

Answers

Answer:

a) Power = Av⁴

b) Energy = Av⁴/2 or (A²v⁶)/2m

Explanation:

Given Y = Av³

A = a constant, v = Velocity, Y = system variable.

a) If Y = Force, F, Find Power in the element.

Power is the dot product of Force and velocity and it's a scalar quantity.

i.e. P = F.v = F.v (cos θ) where θ is the angle between the force and velocity vector.

But in this case, average power is simply given by Fv.

P(avg) = Fv = Yv = (Av³) × v = Av⁴

b) If Y = linear momentum, p, Find the energy stored in the element.

Energy is related to linear momentum by the relationship between kinetic energy and linear momentum.

p = mv and E = mv²/2 = (mv)(v)/2, so,

E = pv/2

For this question, p = Y = Av³

E = Yv/2 = (Av³)v/2 = Av⁴/2

Kinetic energy is often related to momentum through this expression too,

p = mv; p² = m²v²

E = mv²/2; E = (mv²/2) × (m/m) = m²v²/2m = p²/2m

Therefore, E = Y²/2m = (Av³)²/2m = (A²v⁶)/2m

Answer:

The fluid level difference in the manometer arm = 22.56 ft.

Explanation:

Assumption: The fluid in the manometer is incompressible, that is, its density is constant.

The fluid level difference between the two arms of the manometer gives the gage pressure of the air in the tank.

And P(gage) = ρgh

ρ = density of the manometer fluid = 60 lbm/ft³

g = acceleration due to gravity = 32.2 ft/s²

(The ampere-hour rating of the battery is theoperating time to discharge the battery multiplied by the current.)How much energy in Kilowatt hours is initially stored in thebattery? If the battery costs $75 and has a life 0f 300charge-discharge cycle, what is the cost of the energy in dollarsper kilowatt hour? Neglect the cost of recharging the battery.

Answers

Final answer:

The electronics can be operated for approximately 25.19 hours from the fully charged battery, which stores 1.26 kWh of energy. The cost of the energy per kilowatt hour for the battery, given its lifecycle, is around $0.20.

Explanation:

The electronics aboard a sailboat consume 50 watts from a 12.6-V source, and the storage battery used is rated for 12.6 V and 100 ampere hours (Ah). To calculate the number of hours the electronics can be operated without recharging, we use the power consumption and the voltage to find the current drawn by the electronics:

I = P/V = 50W / 12.6V = 3.968 Ah

Thus, the electronics draw approximately 3.97 Ah from the battery. Since the battery has a capacity of 100 Ah, the operating time before a recharge is needed can be calculated as:

operating time = battery capacity / current draw = 100 Ah / 3.97 Ah ≈ 25.19 hours

To find how much energy in kilowatt-hours is stored in the battery:

Energy = Voltage  imes Capacity = 12.6V  imes 100Ah = 1260 Wh = 1.26 kWh

Considering the battery's life of 300 charge-discharge cycles and cost of $75, the cost per kilowatt hour can be calculated as follows:

cost per kWh = total cost / (energy storage  imes number of cycles) = $75 / (1.26 kWh  imes 300 cycles) ≈ $0.20 per kWh

In the Scotch-yoke mechanism, if the displacement is given by x = r sin(t), the velocity v = r cos(t) and acceleration a = -r sin(t). The negative sign in acceleration indicates that it is in the opposite direction to displacement.

Explanation:

The Scotch-yoke mechanism which converts rotary motion into reciprocating motion can be analyzed using principles of kinematics. If we have the displacement given by x = r sin(t), the velocity and acceleration can be derived from this displacement equation.

The velocity (v) is the time derivative of the displacement function, i.e., v = dx/dt = r cos(t).

The acceleration (a) is the time derivative of the velocity function, so a = dv/dt = -r sin(t).

The negative sign signifies that acceleration is in the opposite direction to displacement.

A horizontal rigid bar ABC is pinned at end A and supported by two cables at points B and C. A vertical load P 5 10 kN acts at end C of the bar. The two cables are made of steel with a modulus elasticity E 5 200 GPa and have the same cross-sectional area. Calculate the minimum cross-sectional area of each cable if the yield stress of the cable is 400 MPa and the factor of safety is 2.0. Consider load P only; ignore the weight of bar ABC and the cables.

Answers

Final answer:

To determine the minimum cross-sectional area of the steel cables, calculate the allowable stress and use it along with the provided load. The result is a minimum area of 50 mm² for each cable.

Explanation:

The question involves calculating the minimum cross-sectional area of each steel cable designed to support a load with a safety factor, given the yield stress of the material. First, determine the allowable stress by dividing the yield stress by the factor of safety. In this case, the allowable stress is 200 MPa (400 MPa / 2.0). To find the minimum cross-sectional area (A), use the formula A = P / σ, where P = 10 kN = 10,000 N (the load) and σ (sigma) is the allowable stress in N/m². Convert 200 MPa to N/m² to get 200,000 N/m². Therefore, the minimum cross-sectional area required for each cable is 50 mm² (10,000 N / 200,000 N/m²).

A pipe produces successive harmonics at 300 Hz and 350 Hz. Calculate the length of the pipe and state whether it is closed at one end or not. Assume the speed of sound to be 340 m/s.

Answers

Answer:

The pipe is open ended and the length of pipe is 3.4 m.

Explanation:

For identification of the type of pipe checking the successive frequencies in both the open pipe and closed pipe as below

Equation for nth frequency for open end pipe is given as

[tex]f_n=\frac{nv}{2L}[/tex]

For (n+1)th value the frequency is

[tex]f_{n+1}=\frac{(n+1)v}{2L}[/tex]

Taking a ratio of both equation and solving for n such that the value of n is a whole number

[tex]\frac{f_{n+1}}{f_n}=\frac{\frac{(n+1)v}{2L}}{\frac{nv}{2L}}\\\frac{350}{300}=\frac{(n+1)}{n}\\350n =300n+300\\50n =300\\n =6\\[/tex]

So n is a whole number this means that the pipe is open ended.

For confirmation the  nth frequency for a closed ended pipe is given as

[tex]f_n=\frac{(2n+1)v}{4L}[/tex]

For (n+1)th value the frequency is

[tex]f_{n+1}=\frac{(2n+3)v}{4L}[/tex]

Taking a ratio of both equation and solving for n such that the value of n is a whole number

[tex]\frac{f_{n+1}}{f_n}=\frac{\frac{(2n+3)v}{2L}}{\frac{(2n+1)v}{2L}}\\\frac{350}{300}=\frac{(2n+3)}{(2n+1)}\\700n+350 =600n+900\\100n =550\\n =5.5\\[/tex]

As n is not a whole number so this is further confirmed that the pipe is open ended.

Now from the equation of, with n=6, v=340 m/s and f=300 Hz

[tex]f_n=\frac{nv}{2L}\\300=\frac{6 \times 340}{2L}\\L=\frac{2040}{600}\\L=3.4 m[/tex]

The value of length is 3.4m.
