A solid circular rod that is 600 mm long and 20 mm in diameter is subjected to an axial force of P = 50 kN The elongation of the

Kay [80]

Answer:

a) V = 0.354

b) G = 25.34 GPA

Explanation:

Solution:

We first determine Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of rigidity

Elongation of rod ΔL = 1.4 mm

Normal stress, δ = P/A

Where P = Force acting on the cross-section

A = Area of the cross-section

Using Area, A = π/4 · d²

= π/4 · (0.0020)² = 3.14 × 10⁻⁴m²

δ = 50/3.14 × 10⁻⁴ = 159.155 MPA

E(long) = Δl/l = 1.4/600 = 2.33 × 10⁻³mm/mm

Modulus of Elasticity Е = δ/ε

= 159.155 × 10⁶/2.33 × 10⁻³ = 68.306 GPA

Also final diameter d(f) = 19.9837 mm

Initial diameter d(i) = 20 mm

Poisson said that V = Е(elasticity)/Е(long)

= - <u>( 19.9837 - 20 /20)</u>

2.33 × 10⁻³

= 0.354,

∴ v = 0.354

Also G = Е/2. (1+V)

= 68.306 × 10⁹/ 2.(1+ 0.354)

= 25.34 GPA

⇒ G = 25.34 GPA

Nimfa-mama [501]

a) Potential in A: -2700 V

b) Potential difference: -26,800 V

c) Work: $4.3\cdot 10^{-15} J$

Explanation:

The electric potential at a distance r from a single-point charge is given by:

$V(r)=\frac{kq}{r}$

where

$k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant

q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

In this problem, we have a system of two charges, so the total potential at a certain point will be given by the algebraic sum of the two potentials.

Charge 1 is

$q_1=+2.00\mu C=+2.00\cdot 10^{-6}C$

and is located at the origin (x=0, y=0)

Charge 2 is

$q_2=-3.00 \mu C=-3.00\cdot 10^{-6}C$

and is located at (x=0, y = 0.40 m)

Point A is located at (x = 0.40 m, y = 0)

The distance of point A from charge 1 is

$r_{1A}=0.40 m$

So the potential due to charge 2 is

$V_1=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(+2.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.40}=+4.50\cdot 10^4 V$

The distance of point A from charge 2 is

$r_{2A}=\sqrt{0.40^2+0.40^2}=0.566 m$

So the potential due to charge 1 is

$V_2=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(-3.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.566}=-4.77\cdot 10^4 V$

Therefore, the net potential at point A is

$V_A=V_1+V_2=+4.50\cdot 10^4 - 4.77\cdot 10^4=-2700 V$

Here we have to calculate the net potential at point B, located at

(x = 0.40 m, y = 0.30 m)

The distance of charge 1 from point B is

$r_{1B}=\sqrt{(0.40)^2+(0.30)^2}=0.50 m$

So the potential due to charge 1 at point B is

$V_1=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(+2.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.50}=+3.60\cdot 10^4 V$

The distance of charge 2 from point B is

$r_{2B}=\sqrt{(0.40)^2+(0.40-0.30)^2}=0.412 m$

So the potential due to charge 2 at point B is

$V_2=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(-3.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.412}=-6.55\cdot 10^4 V$

Therefore, the net potential at point B is

$V_B=V_1+V_2=+3.60\cdot 10^4 -6.55\cdot 10^4 = -29,500 V$

So the potential difference is

$V_B-V_A=-29,500 V-(-2700 V)=-26,800 V$

The work required to move a charged particle across a potential difference is equal to its change of electric potential energy, and it is given by

$W=q\Delta V$

where

q is the charge of the particle

$\Delta V$ is the potential difference

In this problem, we have:

$q=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ is the charge of the electron

$\Delta V=-26,800 V$ is the potential difference

Therefore, the work required on the electron is

$W=(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-26,800)=4.3\cdot 10^{-15} J$

Rudiy27

Answer:

Hello your question has some missing information below are the missing information

The refrigerant enters the compressor as saturated vapor at 140kPa Determine The coefficient of performance of this heat pump

answer : 2.49

Explanation:

For vapor-compression refrigeration cycle

P1 = P4 ; P1 = 140 kPa

P2( pressure at inlet ) = P3 ( pressure at outlet ) ; P2 = 800 kPa

<u>From pressure table of R 134a refrigerant</u>

h1 ( enthalpy of saturated vapor at 140kPa ) = 239.16 kJ/kg

h2 ( enthalpy of saturated liquid at P2 = 800 kPa and t = 60°C )

= 296.8kJ/kg

h3 ( enthalpy of saturated liquid at P3 = 800 kPa ) = 95.47 kJ/kg

also h4 = 95.47 kJ/kg

To determine the coefficient of performance

Cop = ( h1 - h4 ) / ( h2 - h1 )

∴ Cop = 2.49
