Answer:

True

Explanation:

Economic cost is a very important factor to consider in decision making in Engineering. It is part of the four essential elements involved in decision making in engineering analysis.

Economic cost is part of the criteria to evaluate alternatives considering the time value of money by estimating a specific measure of worth of estimated commodity cost over a period of time.

Other Factors to consider in Engineering Economics as related to the Economy are:

(1) Time of Occurence of Cash flows

(2) Interest Rates

(3) Cash Flows

A heat pump designer claims to have an air-source heat pump whose coefficient of performance is 1.8 when heating a building whos
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The claim is valid.

Explanation:

Let assume that heat pump is reversible. The coefficient of performance for the heat pump is:

COP_{HP} = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}

COP_{HP} = \frac{300\,K}{300\,K-260\,K}

COP_{HP} = 7.5

The claim is valid as real heat pumps have lower coefficients of performance.

Two loads connected in parallel draw a total of 2.4 kW at 0.8 pf lagging from a 120-V rms, 60-Hz line. One load absorbs 1.5 kW a
stealth61 [152]

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

A carbon resistor has a resistance of 976 ohms at 0 degrees C. Determine its resistance at 89 degrees C​
nignag [31]

Answer:

1028.1184 Ohms

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

  • Initial resistance, Ro = 976 Ohms
  • Initial temperature, T1 = 0°C
  • Final temperature, T2 = 89°C

Assuming the temperature coefficient of resistance for carbon at 0°C is equal to 0.0006 per degree Celsius.

To find determine its new resistance, we would use the mathematical expression for linear resistivity;

R_{89} = R_{0} + R_{0}(\alpha T)

Substituting into the equation, we have;

R_{89} = 976 + 976*(0.0006*89)

R_{89} = 976 + 976*(0.0534)

R_{89} = 976 + 52.1184

R_{89} = 1028.1184 \ Ohms
