Answer:

Explanation:

Implementing strategic system requires extensive organizational change coupled with a period of changing from one stage of socio-technical level to another. This changes are known as strategic transitions and are not easily achieved.

It must be noted that not all strategic systems are rewarding and can be very expensive to put together. It is easier to copy most information systems from other firms because strategic advantage can be most times unsustainable.

8. What is the purpose of the 300 Log?

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

“An OSHA 300 log is where companies record the injuries that occur at the workplace,” said Luna. “By law, they have to report all the injuries to OSHA.” The OSHA law gives workers and their unions the right to have access to injury logs.

A piston–cylinder device contains a mixture of 0.5 kg of H2 and 1.2 kg of N2 at 100 kPa and 300 K. Heat is now transferred to th

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

(a) The heat transferred is 2552.64 kJ

(b) The entropy change of the mixture is 1066.0279 J/K

Explanation:

Here we have

Molar mass of H₂ = 2.01588 g/mol

Molar mass of N₂ = 28.0134 g/mol

Number of moles of H₂ = 500/2.01588 = 248 moles

Number of moles of N₂ = 1200/28.0134 = 42.8 moles

P·V = n·R·T

V₁ = n·R·T/P = 290.8×8.3145×300/100000 = 7.25 m³

Since the volume is doubled then

V₂ = 2 × 7.25 = 14.51 m³

At constant pressure, the temperature is doubled, therefore

T₂ = 600 K

If we assume constant specific heat at the average temperature, we have

Heat supplied = m₁×cp₁×dT₁ + m₂×cp₂×dT₂

cp₁ = Specific heat of hydrogen at constant pressure = 14.50 kJ/(kg K

cp₂ = Specific heat of nitrogen at constant pressure = 1.049 kJ/(kg K

Heat supplied = 0.5×14.50×300 K+ 1.2×1.049×300 = 2552.64 kJ

b) $\Delta S = - R(n_A \times lnx_A + n_B \times ln x_B)$

Where:

$x_A$ and $x_B$ are the mole fractions of Hydrogen and nitrogen respectively.

Therefore, $x_A$ = 248 /(248 + 42.8) = 0.83

$x_B$ = 42.8/(248 + 42.8) = 0.1472

∴ $\Delta S = - 8.3145(248 \times ln0.83 + 42.8 \times ln 0.1472)$ = 1066.0279 J/K

Find the Rectangular form of the following phasors?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The angles are missing in the question.

The angles are :

45, 30, 60, 90, -34, -56, 20, -42, -65, -15

P=10, P=5, P=25, P=54, P=65, P=95, P=250, P=8, P=35, P=150

Explanation:

1. P = 10, θ = 45° rectangular coordinates

x = r cosθ , y = r sinθ

So, rectangular form is x + iy

x = P cosθ = 10 cos 45°

= 7.07

y =P sinθ = 10 sin 45°

= 7.07

Therefore, rectangular form

x + iy = 7.07 + i (7.07)

2. P = 5 , θ = 30°

x = 5 cos 30° = 4.33

y = 5 sin 30° = 2.5

So, (x+iy) = 4.33 + i (2.5)

3. P = 25 , θ = 60°

x = 25 cos 60° = 12.5

y = 25 sin 60° = 21.65

So, (x+iy) = 12.5 + i (21.65)

4. P = 54 , θ = 90°

x = 54 cos 90° = 0

y = 54 sin 90° = 54

So, (x+iy) = 0+ i (54)

5. P = 65 , θ = -34°

x = 65 cos (-34°) = 53.88

y = 65 sin (-34°) = -36.34

So, (x+iy) = 53.88 - i (36.34)

6. P = 95 , θ = -56°

x = 95 cos (-56)° = 53.12

y = 95 sin (-56)° = -78.75

So, (x+iy) = 53.12 - i (78.75)

7. P = 250 , θ = 20°

x = 250 cos 20° = 234.92

y = 250 sin 20° = 85.5

So, (x+iy) = 234.92 + i (85.5)

8. P = 8 , θ = (-42)°

x = 8 cos (-42)° = 5.94

y = 8 sin (-42)° = -5.353

So, (x+iy) = 5.94 - i (5.353)

9. P = 35 , θ = (-65)°

x = 35 cos (-65)° = 14.79

y = 35 sin (-65)° = -31.72

So, (x+iy) = 14.79 - i (31.72)

10. P = 150 , θ = (-15)°

x = 150 cos (-15)° = 144.88

y = 150 sin (-15)° = -38.82

So, (x+iy) = 144.88 - i (38.82)

Windmills slow the air and cause it to fill a larger channel as it passes through the blades. Consider a circular windmill with

Scilla [17]

Answer:

DIAMETER = 9.797 m

POWER = $\dot W = 28.6 kW$

Explanation:

Given data:

circular windmill diamter D1 = 8m

v1 = 12 m/s

wind speed = 8 m/s

we know that specific volume is given as

$v =\frac{RT}{P}$

where v is specific volume of air

considering air pressure is 100 kPa and temperature 20 degree celcius

$v = \frac{0.287\times 293}{100}$

v = 0.8409 m^3/ kg

from continuity equation

$A_1 V_1 = A_2 V_2$

$\frac{\pi}{4}D_1^2 V_1 = \frac{\pi}{4}D_1^2 V_2$

$D_2 = D_1 \sqrt{\frac{V_1}{V_2}}$

$D_2 = 8 \times \sqrt{\frac{12}{8}}$

$D_2 = 9.797 m$

mass flow rate is given as

$\dot m = \frac{A_1 V_1}{v} = \frac{\pi 8^2\times 12}{4\times 0.8049}$

$\dot m = 717.309 kg/s$

the power produced $\dot W = \dot m \frac{ V_1^2 - V_2^2}{2} = 717.3009 [\frac{12^2 - 8^2}{2} \times \frac{1 kJ/kg}{1000 m^2/s^2}]$

$\dot W = 28.6 kW$

For a body moving with simple harmonic motion state the equations to represent: i) Velocity ii) Acceleration iii) Periodic Time

max2010maxim [7]

Answer with Explanation:

The general equation of simple harmonic motion is

$x(t)=Asin(\omega t+\phi)$

where,

A is the amplitude of motion

$\omega$ is the angular frequency of the motion

$\phi$ is known as initial phase

part 1)

Now by definition of velocity we have

$v=\frac{dx}{dt}\\\\\therefore v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(Asin(\omega t+\phi )\\\\v(t)=A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )$

part 2)

Now by definition of acceleration we have

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}\\\\\therefore a(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )\\\\a(t)=-A\omega ^{2}sin(\omega t+\phi )$

part 3)

The angular frequency is related to Time period 'T' as $T =\frac{2\pi }{\omega }$

where

$\omega$ is the angular frequency of the motion of the particle.

Part 4) The acceleration and velocities are plotted below

since the maximum value that the sin(x) and cos(x) can achieve in their respective domains equals 1 thus the maximum value of acceleration and velocity is $A\omega ^{2}$ and $A\omega$ respectively.
