Answer:

Sisal

Explanation:

Sisal is another natural fiber that comes from plants. It is a very weak fiber that has less strength than cotton.

Answer:

Sisal, cotton, jute and manila

Explanation:

Because of the natural fibers, the rope is soft and pliable but this results in very low strength and makes the rope susceptible to damage by abrasion (the natural composition is not adapted to being altered). Most ropes are made with plastic-based materials (ex. nylon, polypropylene) for durability.

Ignoring any losses, estimate how much energy (in units of Btu) is required to raise the temperature of water in a 90-gallon hot
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Q=36444.11 Btu

Explanation:

Given that

Initial temperature = 60° F

Final temperature = 110° F

Specific heat of water = 0.999 Btu/lbm.R

Volume of water = 90 gallon

Mass = Volume x density

1\ gallon = 0.13ft^3

Mass ,m= 90 x 0.13 x 62.36 lbm

m=729.62 lbm

We know that sensible heat given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

Now by putting the values

Q= 729.62 x 0.999 x (110-60) Btu

Q=36444.11 Btu

An automobile weighing 2500 lbf increases its gravitational potential energy by a magnitude of 2.25 × 104 Btu in going from an e
Mila [183]

Answer:

The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.

Explanation:

The automobile weight is 2500 lbf.

The automobile increases its gravitational potential energy in 2.25 * 10^4 BTU. It means the mobile has increased its elevation.

The initial elevation is of 5183 ft.  

The first step is to convert Btu of potential energy to adequate units to work with data previously presented.

British Thermal Unit - 1 BTU = 778.17  lbf*ft

2.25 * 10^4 BTU (\frac{778.17 lbf*ft}{1BTU} ) = 1.75 * 10^7 lbf * ft

Now we have the gravitational potential energy in lbf*ft. Weight of the mobile is in lbf and the elevation is in ft. We can evaluate the expression for gravitational potential energy as follows:  

Ep = m*g*(h_2 - h_1)\\ W = m*g  

Where m is the mass of the automobile, g is the gravity, W is the weight of the automobile showed in the problem.  

h_2 is the final elevation and h_1 is the initial elevation.

Replacing W in the Ep equation

Ep = W*(h_2 -h_1)\\(h_2 -h_1) = \frac{Ep}{W} \\h_2 = h_1 + \frac{Ep}{W}\\\\

Finally, the next step is to replace the variables of the problem.  

h_2 = 5183 ft + \frac{1.75 * 10^7 lbf*ft}{2500 lbf}\\h_2 = 5183 ft + 70003.5 ft\\h_2 = 12186.5 ft

The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.
