A British thermal unit (BTU) is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 pound of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit. To calculate the temperature of a water sample from the BTUs applied to it, you must know the weight of the water and its starting temperature. You can measure the weight of the water using a scale, and the temperature using a Fahrenheit thermometer. Once you have that information, calculating the temperature of the water after applying a known number of BTUs of heat is easy.

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Upper bounds 22.07 GPa

Lower bounds 17.59 GPa

Explanation:

Calculation to estimate the upper and lower bounds of the modulus of this composite.

First step is to calculate the maximum modulus for the combined material using this formula

Modulus of Elasticity for mixture

E= EcuVcu+EwVw

Let pug in the formula

E =( 110 x 0.40)+ (407 x 0.60)

E=44+244.2 GPa

E=288.2GPa

Second step is to calculate the combined specific gravity using this formula

p= pcuVcu+pwTw

Let plug in the formula

p = (19.3 x 0.40) + (8.9 x 0.60)

p=7.72+5.34

p=13.06

Now let calculate the UPPER BOUNDS and the LOWER BOUNDS of the Specific stiffness

UPPER BOUNDS

Using this formula

Upper bounds=E/p

Let plug in the formula

Upper bounds=288.2/13.06

Upper bounds=22.07 GPa

LOWER BOUNDS

Using this formula

Lower bounds=EcuVcu/pcu+EwVw/pw

Let plug in the formula

Lower bounds =( 110 x 0.40)/8.9+ (407 x 0.60)/19.3

Lower bounds=(44/8.9)+(244.2/19.3)

Lower bounds=4.94+12.65

Lower bounds=17.59 GPa

Therefore the Estimated upper and lower bounds of the modulus of this composite will be:

Upper bounds 22.07 GPa

Lower bounds 17.59 GPa

lianna [129]

Answer:

Circuit attached with explanation

Explanation:

Hi Dear,

A circuit is attached for your reference.

When you press "start" PB, the supply reaches the motor starter relay coil "M" that is also in parallel with the "start" PB which allows the motor to remain ON even when you release "start" PB as supply to relay coil is directly from supply "L" through "M".

To stop motor just press "stop" PB and the circuit breaks which de-energize the relay coil and the motor stops.

Hope this finds easy to you.
