The heat required to raise the temperature of m (kg) of a liquid from T1 to T2 at constant pressure is Z T2CpT dT (1) In high sc
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

(a)

<em>d</em>Q = m<em>d</em>q

<em>d</em>q = C_p<em>d</em>T

q = \int\limits^{T_2}_{T_1} {C_p} \, dT   = C_p (T₂ - T₁)

From the above equations, the underlying assumption is that  C_p remains constant with change in temperature.

(b)

Given;

V = 2L

T₁ = 300 K

Q₁ = 16.73 KJ    ,   Q₂ = 6.14 KJ

ΔT = 3.10 K       ,   ΔT₂ = 3.10 K  for calorimeter

Let C_{cal} be heat constant of calorimeter

Q₂ = C_{cal} ΔT

Heat absorbed by n-C₆H₁₄ = Q₁ - Q₂

Q₁ - Q₂ = m C_p ΔT

number of moles of n-C₆H₁₄, n = m/M

ρ = 650 kg/m³  at 300 K

M = 86.178 g/mol

m = ρv = 650 (2x10⁻³) = 1.3 kg

n = m/M => 1.3 / 0.086178 = 15.085 moles

Q₁ - Q₂ = m C_p' ΔT

C_p = (16.73 - 6.14) / (15.085 x 3.10)

C_p = 0.22646 KJ mol⁻¹ k⁻¹

An interior beam supports the floor of a classroom in a school building. The beam spans 26 ft. and the tributary width is 16 ft.
saul85 [17]

Answer:

a. L_o  = 40 psf

b. L ≈ 30.80 psf

c. The uniformly distributed total load for the beam = 812.8 ft./lb

d. The alternate concentrated load is more critical to bending , shear and deflection

Explanation:

The given parameters of the beam the beam are;

The span of the beam = 26 ft.

The width of the tributary, b = 16 ft.

The dead load, D = 20 psf.

a. The basic floor live load is given as follows;

The uniform floor live load, = 40 psf

The floor area, A = The span × The width = 26 ft. × 16 ft. = 416 ft.²

Therefore, the uniform live load, L_o  = 40 psf

b. The reduced floor live load, L in psf. is given as follows;

L = L_o \times \left ( 0.25 + \dfrac{15}{\sqrt{k_{LL} \cdot A_T} } \right)

For the school, K_{LL} = 2

Therefore, we have;

L = 40 \times \left ( 0.25 + \dfrac{15}{\sqrt{2 \times 416} } \right) = 30.80126 \ psf

The reduced floor live load, L ≈ 30.80 psf

c. The uniformly distributed total load for the beam, W_d = b × W_{D + L} =

∴  W_d =  = 16 × (20 + 30.80) ≈ 812.8 ft./lb

The uniformly distributed total load for the beam, W_d = 812.8 ft./lb

d. For the uniformly distributed load, we have;

V_{max} = 812.8 × 26/2 = 10566.4 lbs

M_{max} =  812.8 × 26²/8 = 68,681.6 ft-lbs

v_{max} = 5×812.8×26⁴/348/EI = 4,836,329.333/EI

For the alternate concentrated load, we have;

P_L = 1000 lb

W_{D} = 20 × 16 = 320 lb/ft.

V_{max} = 1,000 + 320 × 26/2 = 5,160 lbs

M_{max} =  1,000 × 26/4 + 320 × 26²/8 = 33,540 ft-lbs

v_{max} = 1,000 × 26³/(48·EI) + 5×320×26⁴/348/EI = 2,467,205.74713/EI

Therefore, the loading more critical to bending , shear and deflection, is the alternate concentrated load

A 4-kW electric heater runs for 2 hours to raise the room temperature to the desired level. Determine the amount of electric ene
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Q' = 8 KW.h

Q'=28800 KJ

Explanation:

Given that

Heat Q= 4 KW

time ,t = 2 hours

The amount of energy used in KWh given as

Q ' = Q x t

Q' = 4 x  2 KW.h

Q' = 8 KW.h

We know that

1 h = 60 min = 60 x 60 s  = 3600 s

We know that W  = 1 J/s

The amount of energy used in KJ given as

Q' = 8 x 3600 = 28800 KJ

Therefore

Q' = 8 KW.h

Q'=28800 KJ

Shear _______ can be directly computed from the angle of twist and the specimen dimensions. (a)- Stress (b)- Modulus (c)- Strain
fgiga [73]

Answer:

c) Strain

Explanation:

For example, the shear strain “γ” on the surface of the rod is determined by measuring the relative angle of  twist “φg” over a gage length “Lg”.
