Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.0978 g/cm^3

Explanation:

Given data:

[tex]p=1.91 g/cm^{3}[/tex]

w = 9.5 %

[tex]G_{s}[/tex]= 2.70

e =?

[tex]S_{r}[/tex] =?

solution:

[tex]w=\frac{mass of water}{mass of solid} =\frac{m_{w} }{m_{s} }[/tex]

[tex]e=\frac{volume of solid}{volume of solid} =\frac{V_{s} }{V_{s} }[/tex]

assume total volume [tex]V_{total}[/tex]=1 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex]=[tex]V_{w} +V_{s} +V_{air}[/tex]

[tex]p=\frac{m_{total} }{V_{total} }[/tex]

[tex]m_{total} =1.91 g\\m_{total} =m_{w} +m_{s}\\w=\frac{m_{w} }{m_{s}}\\ 0.095.m_{s}=m_{w}\\1.91=m_{s}+0.095.m_{s}\\m_{s}=1.744 g\\m_{w}=0.166 g\\[/tex]

[tex]p_{w} =\frac{m_{w} }{V_{w} } ==> V\\G_{S}=\frac{m_{s} }{V_{s}.p_{w}}\\2.70=\frac{1.744}{V_{s}.1 } \\\V_{s}=0.646 cm^{3} \\V_{v}=V_{T}-V_{S}=0.354 cm^{3} \\e=\frac{V_{v}}{V_{S}} =\frac{0.354}{0.646}=0.55=55 percent\\[/tex]

[tex]S_{r}=\frac{w*Gs}{e} =0.4666=46.6 percent\\if S_{r}=1 \\ w=??\\S_{r}=\frac{w*Gs}{e} \\\\w=0.204=20.4 percent\\[/tex]

now find [tex]p[/tex]

[tex]p=\frac{m_{t}(=m_{w} +m_{s} )}{V_{t} }[/tex]

[tex]p[/tex]=2.0978 g/cm^3

What properties should the head of a carpenter’s hammer possess? How would you manufacture a hammer head?

Answers

Properties of Carpenter's hammer possess

Explanation:

1.The head of a carpenter's hammer should possess the impact resistance, so that the chips do not peel off the striking face while working.

2.The hammer head should also be very hard, so that it does not deform while driving or eradicate any nails in wood.

3.Carpenter's hammer is used to impact smaller areas of an object.It can drive nails in the wood,can crush  the rock and shape the metal.It is not suitable for heavy work.

How hammer head is manufactured :

1.Hammer head is produced by metal forging process.

2.In this process metal is heated and this molten metal is placed in the cavities said to be dies.

3.One die is fixed and another die is movable.Ram forces the two dies under the forces which gives the metal desired shape.

4.The third process is repeated for several times.

Suppose you are implementing a relational employee database, where the database is a list of tuples formed by the names, the phone numbers and the salaries of the employees. For example, a sample database may consist of the following list of tuples:

[("John", "x3456", 50.1) ; ("Jane", "x1234", 107.3) ; ("Joan", "unlisted", 12.7)]
Note that I have written parentheses around the tuples to make them more readable, but the precedences of different operators in OCaml make this unnecessary.

Define a function

find_salary : ((string * string * float) list) -> string -> float
that takes as input a list representing the database and the name of an employee and returns his/her corresponding salary. Think also of some graceful way to deal with the situation where the database does not contain an entry for that particular name, explain it, and implement this in your code.

Define a function

find_phno : ((string * string * float) list) -> string -> string
that is like find_salary, except that it returns the phone number instead.

What I have so far:

let rec find_salary li nm =
let rec helper name s =

else

P1.30 shows a gas contained in a vertical piston– cylinder assembly. A vertical shaft whose cross-sectional area is 0.8 cm2 is attached to the top of the piston. Determine the magnitude, F, of the force acting on the shaft, in N, required if the gas pressure is 3 bar. The masses of thepiston and attached shaft are 24.5kg and 0.5kg respectively. The piston diameter is 10cm. The local atmospheric pressure is 1 bar. The piston moves smoothly in the cylinder and g=9.81 m/s2

Answers

In the process of analyzing a thermodynamic system it is important to identify what system is being worked on and the processes and properties if the system

The magnitude of the force acting on the shaft, is approximately 1,336.5 N

The reason the value for the force magnitude acting on the shaft is correct is as follows:

The known parameters are:

The cross-sectional area of the shaft, Aₐ = 0.8 cm²

The required gas pressure in the cylinder, P = 3 bar

The mass of the piston, m₁ = 24.5 kg

The mass of the shaft, m₂ = 0.5 kg

The diameter of the piston, D = 10 cm

The atmospheric pressure, Pₐ = 1 bar

Required:

The magnitude of the force F acting on the shaft

Solution:

The force due to the gas in the cylinder, [tex]\mathbf{F_{gas}}[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]F_{gas}[/tex] = 3 bar × π × (10 cm)²/4 = 2,359.19449 N

The force due to the atmosphere, [tex]\mathbf{F_{atm}}[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]F_{atm}[/tex] = 1 bar × ((π × (10 cm)²/4) -  0.8 cm²) ≈ 777.4 N

The force due to the piston and shaft, [tex]\mathbf{F_{ps}}[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]F_{ps}[/tex] = (24.5 kg + 0.5 kg) × 9.81 m/s² = 245.25 N

The magnitude of the force acting on the shaft, F = [tex]F_{gas}[/tex] - ([tex]\mathbf{F_{atm}}[/tex] + [tex]\mathbf{F_{ps}}[/tex])

∴ F = 2,359.19449 N - (777.4 N + 245.25 N) ≈ 1,336.5449 N

The magnitude of the force acting on the shaft, F ≈ 1,336.5 N

Answer:

A. 36 minutes

B. 120 minutes

C.

i. 144 minutes

ii. 984 minutes

D. Car 1 is 1.67km ahead of Cat 2 when Car 2 passed the toll B.

E. 98.33km

Explanation

A.

Given

dAb = 10km

dBc = 10km

Propagation Speed = 100km/hr

Delay time = 1 minute

Numbers of cars = 8

Number of tolls = 3

Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay

Calculating Propagation Delay

Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed

Total distance = 10km + 10km = 20km

So, Propagation delay = 20km/100km/hr

Propagation delay = 0.2 hour

                               

Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls * numbers of cars

Transitional delay = 1 * 3 * 8

Transitional delay = 24 minutes

Total End delay = 24 minutes + 0.2 hours

= 24 minutes + 0.2 * 60 minutes

= 24 minutes + 12 minutes

= 36 minutes

B.

Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay

Calculating Propagation Delay

Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed

Total distance = 10km + 10km = 20km

So, Propagation delay = 20km/100km/hr

Propagation delay = 0.2 hour

                               

Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls ------ Cars traveling separately

Transitional delay = 1 * 3

Transitional delay = 3 minutes

Total End delay for one car = 3 minutes + 0.2 hours

= 3 minutes + 0.2 * 60 minutes

= 3 minutes + 12 minutes

= 15 minutes

Total End delay for 8 cars = 8 * 15 = 120 minutes

C.

Given

dAb = 100km

dBc = 100km

Propagation Speed = 100km/hr

Delay time = 1 minute

Numbers of cars = 8

Number of tolls = 3

i. Cars travelling together

Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay

Calculating Propagation Delay

Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed

Total distance = 100km + 100km = 200km

So, Propagation delay = 200km/100km/hr

Propagation delay = 2 hours

                               

Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls * numbers of cars

Transitional delay = 1 * 3 * 8

Transitional delay = 24 minutes

Total End delay = 24 minutes + 2 hours

= 24 minutes + 2 * 60 minutes

= 24 minutes + 120 minutes

= 144 minutes

ii. Cars travelling separately

Total End to End delay = Propagation delay + Transition delay

Calculating Propagation Delay

Propagation delay = Total Distance/Propagation speed

Total distance = 100km + 100km = 200km

So, Propagation delay = 200km/100km/hr

Propagation delay = 2 hours

                               

Translation delay = delay time* numbers of tolls ------ Cars traveling separately

Transitional delay = 1 * 3

Transitional delay = 3 minutes

Total End delay for one car = 3 minutes + 2 hours

= 3 minutes + 2 * 60 minutes

= 3 minutes + 120 minutes

= 123 minutes

Total End delay for 8 cars = 8 * 123 = 984 minutes

D.

Distance = 100km

Time = 1 min/car

Car 1 is 1 minute ahead of car 2 --- at toll A and B

If car 1 leaves toll B after 10 minutes then cat 2 leaves after 11 minutes

Time delay = 11 - 10 = 1 minute

Distance = time * speed

= 1 minute * 100km/hr

= 1 hr/60 * 100 km/hr

= 100/60

= 1.67km

E.

Given

Distance = 100km

Distance behind = 1.67

Maximum value of dBc = 100km - 1.67km = 98.33km

The maximum distance that can be reached is 98.33km

A constant torque of 5 Nm is applied to an unloaded motor at rest at time t ¼ 0. The motor reaches a speed of 1800 rpm in 3 s. Assuming the damping to be negligible, calculate the motor inertia.

Answers

Answer:

The motor inertia is 7.958 X 10⁻² kg.m²

Explanation:

To determine the motor inertia, the following formula applies.

Neglecting the damping effect,

[tex]T = \frac{J}{9.55}.\frac{\delta n}{\delta T}[/tex]

Where;

T is the constant torque applied to the motor = 5Nm

J is the motor inertia = ?

δn is the change in angular speed of the motor = 1800 r/min

δT is change in time of the unloaded motor from rest = 3 sec

[tex]J = \frac{9.55* \delta T* T}{\delta n}[/tex]

[tex]J = \frac{9.55* 3* 5}{1800}[/tex] = 0.07958 kg.m² = 7.958 X 10⁻² kg.m²

Therefore, the motor inertia is 7.958 X 10⁻² kg.m²

A horizontal curve on a two-lane highway (10-ft lanes) is designed for 50 mi/h with a 6% superelevation. The central angle of the curve is 35 degrees and the PI is at station 482 + 72. What is the station of the PTand how many feet have to be cleared from the lane's shoulder edge to provide adequate stopping sight distance?

Answers

Answer:

The PT station is at 485+20.02 and 21.92 ft are to be cleared from the lane's shoulder to provide adequate stopping sight distance.

Explanation:

From table 3.5 of Traffic Engineering by Mannering

R_v=835

R=835+(10ft/2)= 840 ft.

Now T is given as

T=R tan(Δ/2)

Here Δ is the central angle of curve given as 35°

So

T=R tan(Δ/2)

T=840 x tan(35/2)

T=840 x tan(17.5)

T=264.85

Now

STA PC=482+72-(2+64.85)=480+07.15

Also L is given as

L=(π/180)RΔ

Here R is the radius calculated as 840 ft, Δ is the angle given as 35°.

L=(π/180)RΔ

L=(π/180)x840 x35

L=512.87 ft

STA PT=480+07.15+5+12.87=485+20.02

Now Ms is the minimum distance which is given as

[tex]M_s=R_v(1-cos(\frac{90 \times SSD}{\pi Rv}))\\[/tex]

Here R_v is given as 835

SSD for 50 mi/hr is given as 425 ft from table 3.1 of Traffic Engineering by Mannering

So Ms is

[tex]M_s=R_v(1-cos(\frac{90 \times SSD}{\pi Rv}))\\M_s=835(1-cos(\frac{90 \times 425}{\pi 835}))\\M_s=26.92 ft[/tex]

Now for the clearance from the inside lane

Ms=Ms-lane length

Ms=26.92-5= 21.92 ft.

So the PT station is at 485+20.02 and 21.92 ft are to be cleared from the lane's shoulder to provide adequate stopping sight distance.

A composite plane wall consists of a Li = 125 mm thick layer of insulation (ki = 0.05 W/m.K) and a Ls = 25 mm thick layer of siding (ks = 0.10 W/m.K). The inner temperature of the insulation is 20 C. The outer temperature of the siding is -10 C. Steady state conditions apply.

​Determine the temperature at the interface between the two layers, in C, and the rate of heat transfer through the wall, in W per m2 of surface area.

Answers

Answer:

Interface temperature = -7.27C

Rate of heat transfer = 10.91W/m2

Explanation:

The steps and the application of fourier's law of heat conduction is as shown in the attached file.

Final answer:

For the given composite wall, the temperature at the interface between the two layers is 17.275 °C and the rate of heat transfer through the wall is -0.0109 W/m².

Explanation:

To determine the temperature at the interface between the two layers, we can use the formula for 1-D steady-state heat conduction:

q = (T2 - T1) / ((L1 / k1) + (L2 / k2))

where q is the heat transfer rate per unit area, T1 and T2 are the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces, L1 and L2 are the thicknesses of the insulation and siding layers, and k1 and k2 are the thermal conductivities of the insulation and siding layers, respectively.

Plugging in the given values:

q = (-10 - 20) / ((125 / 0.05) + (25 / 0.10)) = -30 / (2500 + 250) = -30 / 2750 = -0.0109 W/m².

The negative sign indicates heat transfer from the siding to the insulation.

To find the temperature at the interface, we can use the formula:

T_interface = T1 + (q * (L1 / k1))

Plugging in the values:

T_interface = 20 + (-0.0109 * (125 / 0.05)) = 20 - 2.725 = 17.275 °C.

Therefore, the temperature at the interface between the two layers is 17.275 °C and the rate of heat transfer through the wall is -0.0109 W/m².

Define the following terms in your own words: (a) elastic strain, (b) plastic strain, (c) creep strain, (d) tensile viscosity, (e) recovery, and (f) relaxation.

Answers

Answer:

Detailed Answer is given below,

Explanation:

(a) Elastic strain

Elastic deformation is defined as the limit for the deformation values up to which the object will bounce and return to the original shape when the load is removed.

When the object is subjected to an external load, it deforms. If the load exceeds the load corresponding to the elastic limit of the object, then, after removing the load, the object cannot return to its original geometric specification.

(b) Plastic strain

Plastic Strain is a deformation that cannot be recovered after eliminating the deforming force. In other words, if the applied tension is greater than the elastic limit of the material, there will be a permanent deformation.

(c) Creep strain

The deformation of the material at a higher temperature is much more than at the normal temperature known as creep.

Subsequently, the deformation produced in heated material is called creep deformation. Creep deformation is a function of temperature.

(d) Tensile viscosity

Viscosity is a main parameter when measuring flux fluids, such as liquids, semi-solids, gases and even solids. Brookfield deals with liquids and semi-solids. Viscosity measurements are made together with the quality and efficiency of the product. Any person involved in the characterization of the flow, in research or development, quality control or transfer of fluids, at one time or another is involved with some kind of viscosity measurement.

(e) Recovery

Recovery is a process whereby deformed grains can reduce their stored energy by eliminating or reorganizing defects in their crystalline structure. These defects, mainly dislocations, are introduced by plastic deformation of the material and act to increase the elastic limit of a material.

(f) Relaxation

Stress relaxation occurs in polymers when they remain tense for long periods of time.

These alloys have very good resistance to stress relaxation and, therefore, are used as spring materials.

Stress relaxation is a gradual reduction of stress over time in constant tension.

An urn contains r red, w white, and b black balls. Which has higher entropy, drawing k ~2 balls from the urn with replacement or without replacement? Set it up and show why. (There is both a hard way and a relatively simple way to do this.)

Answers

Answer:

The case with replacement has higher entropy

Explanation:

The complete question is given:

'Drawing with and without replacement. An urn contains r red,  w white  and b black balls. Which has higher entropy, drawing k ≥ 2 balls from the urn with  replacement or without replacement?'

Solution:

- n drawing is the same irrespective of whether there is replacement or not.

-  X to denotes drawing from an urn with r red balls,  w white balls and b black balls. So, n = b + r +  w.

We have:

                                      p_X(cr) = r / n

                                      p_X(cw) = w / n

                                      p_X(cb) = b / n

- Now, if  Xi is the ith drawing with replacement then Xi are independent and p_Xi (x) = pX(x) for x e ( cr , cb , cw ).

- Now, let  Yi be the ith drawing with replacement where Yi are not independent p_Yi (x) = pX(x) for x ∈ X.

- To see this, note  Y1 =  X and assume it is true for  Yi and consider  Yi+1:

    p_Y(i+1) (cr) = p(Y(i+1),Yi).(cr, cr) + p(Y(i+1),Yi).(cr, cw) + p(Y(i+1),Yi).(cr, cb)

= pY(i+1)|Yi  (cr|cr)*pYi  (cr) +pY(i+1)|Yi  (cr|cw)*pYi (cw) + pY(i+1)|Yi  (cr|cb)*pYi (cb)

= r*( r - 1 )/n*(n-1) + w*r/n*(n-1) + b*r/n*(n-1) = r / n =  p_X(cr)

- This means, using the chain rule and the conditioning theore m:

H(Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn) =  H(Y1) +  H(Y2|Y1) +  H(Y3|Y2, Y1) + ... H(Yn|Yn−1, . . . , Y1)

=< SUM H(Yi) = n*H(X) =  H(X1, X2, . . . , Xn)

- with equality if and only if the  Yi were independent:

                          H(Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn) < H(X1, X2, . . . , Xn)

Answer: The case with replacement has higher entropy

   

The air contained in a room loses heat to the surroundings at a rate of 50 kJ/min while work is supplied to the room by computer, TV, and lights at a rate of 1.2 kW. What is the net amount of energy change of the air in the room during a 30-min period?

Answers

Answer:

net amount of energy change of the air in the room during a 30-min period = 660KJ

Explanation:

The detailed calculation is as shown in the attached file.

Answer:

660KJ

Explanation:

Given

Let Q = Heat Loss from room = 50kj/min

Let W = Work Supplied to room = 1.2KW

1 kilowatt = 1 kilojoules per second

So, W = 1.2KJ/s

In heat and work (Sign Convention)

We know that

1. Heat takes positive sign when it is added to the system

2. Heat takes negative sign when it is removed from the system.

3. Work done is considered positive when work is done by the system

4. Work done is considered negative when work is done on the system.

From the above illustration, heat loss (Q) = -50KJ/Min

In 30 minutes time, Q = -50Kj/Min * 30 Min

Work done in 30 minutes = -1500 KJ

Also, work supplied = -1.2Kj/s

Work supplied to the system in 30 minutes = -1.2Kj/s * 30 minutes

W = -1.2 KJ/s * 30 * 60 seconds

W = -2160KJ

In thermodynamics (First Law)

Q = W + ΔU

-1500 = -2160 + ΔU

∆U = 2160 - 1500

∆U = 660KJ

Potential difference,V=3.0*10^9V

charge on an electron, q=1e.

Recall that the relationship between potential difference (v), charge(Q) and the potential energy(U) is expressed as

[tex]U=qV[/tex]

from the question, we asked to determine potential energy given the charge and the potential difference.

Hence if we substitute values into the equation, we arrive at

Hence the magnitude of the change in the electric potential energy of an electron that moves between the ground and the cloud is [tex]3.0*10^{9}eV[/tex]

When a thin glass tube is put into water, the water rises 1.4 cm. When the same tube is put into hexane, the hexane rises only 0.4 cm. Complete the sentences to best explain the difference.

Answers

Answer:

Due to differences in the nature of the adhesive force and cohesive forces in the molecules of the individual substances and the glass tube.

Explanation:

To understand why this is so, a deep understanding of adhesive and cohesive force is required.

First, what is adhesive force?

Note: Adhesive and cohesive forces are best discussed under macroscopic level.

Adhesive force is the Intermolecular forces that exist between atoms of different molecules e g the forces explain when unlike charges stick together.

Cohesive force on the other hand is the Intermolecular force that exist between atoms of the same molecules e.g the force between hydrogen bonding.

Hence to explain the case scenario above, the adhesive force between the water molecules and the glass molecules is higher than the cohesive force between the water molecules. Hence the high rise.

In a wind-turbine, the generator in the nacelle is rated at 690 V and 2.3 MW. It operates at a power factor of 0.85 (lagging) at its rated conditions. Calculate the per-phase current that has to be carried by the cables to the power electronics converter and the step-up transformer located at the base of the tower.

Answers

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to real power in 3 phases, which is defined as the product between the phase voltage, the phase current and the power factor (Specifically given by the cosine of the phase angle). First we will find the phase voltage from the given voltage and proceed to find the current by clearing it from the previously mentioned formula. Our values are

[tex]V = 690V[/tex]

[tex]P_{real} = 2.3MW[/tex]

Real power in 3 phase

[tex]P_{real} = 3V_{ph}I_{ph} Cos\theta[/tex]

Now the Phase Voltage is,

[tex]V_{ph} = \frac{V}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

[tex]V_{ph} = \frac{690}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

[tex]V_{ph} = 398.37V[/tex]

The current phase would be,

[tex]P_{real} = 3V_{ph}I_{ph} Cos\theta[/tex]

Rearranging,

[tex]I_{ph}=\frac{P_{real}}{3V_{ph}Cos\theta}[/tex]

Replacing,

[tex]I_{ph}=\frac{2.3MW}{3( 398.37V)(0.85)}[/tex]

[tex]I_{ph}= 2.26kA/phase[/tex]

Therefore the current per phase is 2.26kA

An engine has a hot-reservoir temperature of 970 K and a cold-reservoir temperature of 480 K. The engine operates at three-fifths maximum efficiency. What is the efficiency of the engine?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\eta=0.303[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that

Temperature of the hot reservoir ,T₁ = 970 K

Temperature of the cold reservoir ,T₂ = 480 K

We know that only Carnot engine is the ideal engine which gives us the maximum power.The efficiency of Carnot engine is given as

[tex]\eta_{max}=1-\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}[/tex]

[tex]\eta_{max}=1-\dfrac{480}{970}[/tex]

[tex]\eta_{max}=0.505[/tex]

Therefore the efficiency of the given engine will be

[tex]\eta=\dfrac{3}{5}\eta_{max}[/tex]

[tex]\eta=\dfrac{3}{5}\times 0.505[/tex]

[tex]\eta=0.303[/tex]

Consider the following incomplete code segment, which is intended to print the sum of the digits in num. For example, when num is 12345, the code segment should print 15, which represents the sum 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5.

int num = 12345;

int sum = 0;

/* missing loop header */

{

sum += num % 10;

num /= 10;

}

System.out.println(sum);

Which of the following should replace /* missing loop header */ so that the code segment will work as intended?

while (num > 0)

A

while (num >= 0)

B

while (num > 1)

C

while (num > 2)

D

while (num > sum)

E

Answers

Answer:

A) while (num >= 0)

Explanation:

To understand why we need to focus on the module and division operation inside the loop. num % 10 divide the number by ten and take its remainder to then add this remainder to sum, the important here is that we are adding up the number in reverse order and wee need to repeat this process until we get the first number (1%10 = 1), therefore, num need to be one to compute the last operation.

A) this is the correct option because num = 1 > 0 and the last operation will be performed, and after the last operation, num = 1 will be divided by 10 resulting in 0 and 0 is not greater than 0, therefore, the cycle end and the result will be printed.

B) This can not be the option because this way the program will never ends -> 0%10 = 0 and num = 0/10 = 0

C) This can not be the option because num = 1 > 1 will produce an early end of the loop printing an incomplete result

D) The same problem than C

E) There is a point, before the operations finish, where sum > num, this will produce an early end of the loop, printing an incomplete result

Loops are program statements that are used to carry out repetitive and iterative operations

The missing loop header is (a) while (num > 0)

To calculate the sum of the digits of variable num, the following must be set to be true

The loop header must be set to keep repeating the loop operations as long as the value of variable num is more than 0

To achieve this, we make use of while loop,

And the loop condition (as described above) would be num > 0

Hence, the true option is (a) while (num > 0)

An air-standard Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 6 and the temperature and pressure at the beginning of the compression process are 520 deg R and 14.2 lbf/in^2, respectively. The heat addition per unit mass of air is 600 Btu/lb. Determine (a) the maximum temperature, in deg R.

Answers

Answer:

The maximum temperature of the cycle is 1065⁰R

Explanation:

The maximum temperature in degree Rankin can be obtained using the formula below;

[tex]\frac{T_2}{T_1} =[\frac{V_1}{V_2}]^{1.4-1}[/tex]

Where;

T₂ is the  maximum temperature of the cycle

T₁ is the initial temperature of the cycle = 520 deg R = 520 ⁰R

V₁/V₂ is the compression ratio = 6

[tex]T_2 = T_1(\frac{V_1}{V_2})^{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]T_2=T_1(6)^{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]T_2=520^0R(6)^{0.4}[/tex]

T₂ = 1064.96 ⁰R

Therefore, the maximum temperature of the cycle is 1065⁰R

A firm has 62 employees. During the year, there are seven first-aid cases, three medicaltreatment injuries, an accident in which an injured employee was required to work 1 week in restricted work activity, a work-related illness in which the employee lost 1 week of work, a work-related illness in which the employee lost 6 weeks of work, and a fatality resulting from an electrocution. Calculate the total incidence rate, the number-of-lostworkdays rate, and the LWDI.

Answers

Answer:

The answers to the question are

11.2967.746.45

Explanation:

The number of employees in the firm = 62

Number of first-aid cases = 7

Number of medical treatment injuries = 3

Injury resulting restricted work activity = 1

Illness resulting in one week loss work day = 1

Illness resulting in loss of 6 weeks of work =1

Incident resulting in fatality = 1

Total incidence rate

Total hours worked = 40×62×50  = 124000 Hrs

Where 200,000 is the number of hours worked by Full time employees numbering 100 that  work for 40 Hours a week for 50 weeks in a year

Number of recordable incident =  Those incident that results in lost work days, death, restricted ability to work, or transfer to another task or more severe injury treatment beyond first aid

Therefore number recordabe incident = 7

Recordable Incident Rate is calculated by

IR = (Number of recordable incident Cases X 200,000)÷(Number of Employee labor hours worked)

= (7×200000)/124000= 11.29

The number-of-lostworkdays rate

The Lost Workday Rate is given by

Lost Workday Rate = (Total number of days lost to injury or illness)÷( Cumulative number of hours employees worked) × 200000

Total number of days lost to injury or illness = 42 days

Lost Workday Rate = (42/124000) × 200000 = 67.74

LWDI. Lost Work Day Injury

LWDI = (Number of incident resulting in lost workdays and restricted activity) ×200000 /(Total number of hours worked by all employees in one year)

LWDI = LWD×200000/ EH = 4×200000/124000 = 6.45

LWDI  = 6.45

The following laboratory tests are performed on aggregate samples:a. Specific gravity and absorptionb. Soundnessc. Sieve analysis test.What are the significance and use of each of these tests (1 point each)?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

A- Specific gravity and Absorption Test: Specific gravity is a measure of a material’s density as compared to the density of water at 73.4°F (23°C). Therefore, by definition, water at a temperature of 73.4°F (23°C) has a specific gravity of 1. Absorption is also determined by the same test procedure and it is a measure of the amount of water that an aggregate can absorb into its pore structure.

Specific gravity is used in a number of applications including Superpave mix design, deleterious particle identification and separation and material property change identification while

B- Soundness Test : This determines an aggregate's resistance to disintegration by weathering and in particular, freeze-thaw cycles. Aggregates that are durable (resistant to weathering) are less likely to degrade in the field and cause premature HMA pavement distress and potentially failure.It is used to identify the excess amount of lime in cement.

C - Sieve analysis Test: is a practice or procedure used to assess the particle size distribution (also called gradation) of a granular material by allowing the material to pass through a series of sieves of progressively smaller mesh size and weighing the amount of material that is stopped by each sieve as a fraction of the whole mass. This test is used to describe the properties of the aggregate and to see if it is appropriate for various civil engineering purposes such as selecting the appropriate aggregate for concrete mixes and asphalt mixes as well as sizing of water production well screens.

Light from a helium-neon laser (λ = 633 nm) illuminates two slits spaced 0.50 mm apart. A viewing screen is 2.5 m behind the slits. What is the spacing between two adjacent bright fringes?

Answers

Final answer:

The spacing between two adjacent bright fringes, when a helium-neon laser with a wavelength of 633 nm illuminates two slits 0.50 mm apart and a screen is placed 2.5 m behind the slits, is 3.16 mm.

Explanation:

To answer the question on the spacing between two adjacent bright fringes for a helium-neon laser with a wavelength (λ) of 633 nm illuminating two slits spaced 0.50 mm apart, with a viewing screen 2.5 m behind the slits, we use the formula for the fringe spacing in a double-slit interference pattern, Δy = (λL) / d, where Δy is the fringe spacing, λ is the wavelength of the light, L is the distance from the slits to the screen, and d is the distance between the slits.

Given λ = 633 nm = 633 × 10-9 m, L = 2.5 m, and d = 0.50 mm = 0.50 × 10-3 m, plugging these values into the formula gives:

Δy = (633 × 10-9 m × 2.5 m) / (0.50 × 10-3 m) = 3.16 × 10-3 m = 3.16 mm

Therefore, the spacing between two adjacent bright fringes is 3.16 mm.

A. Zenith Angle
B. Angle of Incidence
C. Beam Radiation
D. Diffuse Radiation
E. Reflected Radiation
F. Total Radiation
G. Local Time (note Gainesville has daylight savings on Sep 21)

Answers

Answer:

z=60.32°, i=0.32°, Beam Radiation = 1097.2 W/m²,  Id = 94.2 W/m², Ir=14.1W/m², total radiation = 1205.4 W/m², Local time=1:21PM

Explanation:

A. Zenith Angle:

As we know that,

Zenith angle=z=90⁰-α=L(latitude)=29.68⁰

Another way to do it is to find α first,

At solar time hour angle is 0⁰. So, solar altitude becomes equal to latitude which could be written as

sinα=cosL

α=sin⁻¹(cosL)=sin⁻¹(cos29.68⁰)=60.32°

B. Angle of incidence:

angle of incidence= cosi=sin(α+β)=sin(60.32°+32°)=sin92.32°

i=cos⁻¹(sin92.32°)=0.32°

C. Beam Radiation:

First we need to calculate extra terrestrial radiations

Iext.=1353[1+0.034cos(360n/365)]

where n=264

=1345 W/m²

Now,

Beam Radiation=CIext⁻ⁿ

where n=0.1/sin60.32°

Beam Radiation = 1097.2 W/m²

D. Diffude Radiation:

difuse radiation = Id = 0.0921ₙcos²(β/2)

where β=30°

Id = 94.2 W/m²

E. Reflected Radiations:

Ir=pIn(sinα+0.092)sin²(β/2)

= (0.2)(1097.1)(sin60.32+0.092)sin²(30/2)

= 14.1W/m²

F. Total Radiation:

total radiation = beam radiation + diffuse radiation + reflected raddiation

= 1205.4 W/m²

G. Local Time:

LST= ST-ET-(lₓ-l(local))4min/₀

     = 12:00-7.9min-(75°-82.27°)4min/₀

     =12:21PM

Local time

An AM radio transmitter radiates 550 kW at a frequency of 740 kHz. How many photons per second does the emitter emit?

Answers

Answer:

1121.7 × 10³⁰ photons per second

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Power transmitted by the AM radio,P = 550 kW = 550 × 10³ W

Frequency of AM radio, f = 740 kHz = 740 × 10³ Hz

Now,

P = [tex]\frac{NE}{t}[/tex]

here,

N is the number of photons

t is the time

E = energy = hf

h = plank's constant = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ m² kg / s

Thus,

P = [tex]\frac{NE}{t}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{N\times(6.626\times10^{-34}\times740\times10^{3})}{1}[/tex]          [t = 1 s for per second]

or

550 × 10³ = [tex]\frac{N\times(6.626\times10^{-34}\times740\times10^{3})}{1}[/tex]

or

550 = N × 4903.24 × 10⁻³⁴

or

N = 0.11217 × 10³⁴ = 1121.7 × 10³⁰ photons per second
