Answer: The net force in every bolt is 44.9 kip
Explanation:
Given that;
External load applied = 245 kip
number of bolts n = 10
External Load shared by each bolt (P_E) = 245/10 = 24.5 kip
spring constant of the bolt Kb = 0.4 Mlb/in
spring constant of members Kc = 1.6 Mlb/in
combined stiffness factor C = Kb / (kb+kc) = 0.4 / ( 0.4 + 1.6) = 0.4 / 2 = 0.2 Mlb/in
Initial pre load Pi = 40 kip
now for Bolts; both pre load Pi and external load P_E are tensile in nature, therefore we add both of them
External Load on each bolt P_Eb = C × PE = 0.2 × 24.5 = 4.9 kip
So Total net Force on each bolt Fb = P_Eb + Pi
Fb = 4.9 kip + 40 kip
Fb = 44.9 kip
Therefore the net force in every bolt is 44.9 kip
Answer and Explanation:
The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.
In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.
Answer: c) 450 kPa
Explanation:
Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.
(At constant temperature and number of moles)
where,
= initial pressure of gas = 150 kPa
= final pressure of gas = ?
= initial volume of gas = v L
= final volume of gas = 
Therefore, the new pressure of the gas will be 450 kPa.
Answer:
1) The exergy of destruction is approximately 456.93 kW
2) The reversible power output is approximately 5456.93 kW
Explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
P₁ = 8 MPa
T₁ = 500°C
From which we have;
s₁ = 6.727 kJ/(kg·K)
h₁ = 3399 kJ/kg
P₂ = 2 MPa
T₂ = 350°C
From which we have;
s₂ = 6.958 kJ/(kg·K)
h₂ = 3138 kJ/kg
P₃ = 2 MPa
T₃ = 500°C
From which we have;
s₃ = 7.434 kJ/(kg·K)
h₃ = 3468 kJ/kg
P₄ = 30 KPa
T₄ = 69.09 C (saturation temperature)
From which we have;
h₄ = 
+ x₄×
= 289.229 + 0.97*2335.32 = 2554.49 kJ/kg
s₄ = 
+ x₄×
= 0.94394 + 0.97*6.8235 ≈ 7.563 kJ/(kg·K)
The exergy of destruction, 
, is given as follows;
= T₀ × 
= T₀ × 
× (s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)
= T₀ × 
×(s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)/(h₁ + h₃ - h₂ - h₄)
∴ = 298.15 × 5000 × (7.563 + 6.958 - 6.727 - 7.434)/(3399 + 3468 - 3138 - 2554.49) ≈ 456.93 kW
The exergy of destruction ≈ 456.93 kW
2) The reversible power output, 
= 
+ ≈ 5000 + 456.93 kW = 5456.93 kW
The reversible power output ≈ 5456.93 kW.
ave you ever seen a Rube Goldberg machine in action? You probably have, even if you didn’t know what it was. A Rube Goldberg machine is a contraption that uses a chain reaction to carry out a simple task. It performs a very basic job in a complicated way.
