A 10 hp motor is used to raise a 1000 Newton weight at a vertical distance of 5 meters. What is the work the motor performs?

1 answer:

4 0

The work done by a 10 HP motor when it raises a 1000 Newton weight at a vertical distance of 5 meters is 5kJ.

Define work. Explain the rate of doing work.

Work is the energy that is moved to or from an item by applying force along a displacement in physics. For a constant force acting in the same direction as the motion, work is easiest expressed as the product of force magnitude and distance traveled.

Since the force transfers one unit of energy for every unit of work it performs, the rate at which work is done and energy is used are equal.

Solution Explained:

Given,

Weight = 1000N and distance = 5m

A/Q, the work here is done in lifting then

Work = (weight) × (distance moved)

= 1000 X 5

= 5000Nm or 5000J = 5kJ

Therefore, the work done in lifting a 1000 Newton weight at a vertical distance of 5 meters is 5kJ.

Fibonacci sequence has many applications in Computer Science. Write a program to generate Fibonacci numbers as many as desired.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The Python Code for Fibonacci Sequence is :

# Function for nth Fibonacci number

def Fibonacci(n):

if n<0:

print("Incorrect input")

# First Fibonacci number is 0

elif n==0:

return 0

# Second Fibonacci number is 1

elif n==1:

return 1

else:

return Fibonacci(n-1)+Fibonacci(n-2)

# Driver Program

print(Fibonacci(9))

Explanation:

The Fibonacci numbers are the numbers in the following integer sequence.

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ……..

In mathematical terms, the sequence Fn of Fibonacci numbers is defined by the recurrence relation

Fn = Fn-1 + Fn-2

with seed values

F0 = 0 and F1 = 1.

Steam enters a turbine steadily at 7 MPa and 600°C with a velocity of 60 m/s and leaves at 25 kPa with a quality of 95 percent.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a) $\dot m = 16.168\,\frac{kg}{s}$ , b) $v_{out} = 680.590\,\frac{m}{s}$ , c) $\dot W_{out} = 18276.307\,kW$

Explanation:

A turbine is a steady-state devices which transforms fluid energy into mechanical energy and is modelled after the Principle of Mass Conservation and First Law of Thermodynamics, whose expressions are described hereafter:

Mass Balance

$\frac{v_{in}\cdot A_{in}}{\nu_{in}} - \frac{v_{out}\cdot A_{out}}{\nu_{out}} = 0$

Energy Balance

$-q_{loss} - w_{out} + h_{in} - h_{out} = 0$

Specific volumes and enthalpies are obtained from property tables for steam:

Inlet (Superheated Steam)

$\nu_{in} = 0.055665\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

$h_{in} = 3650.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

Outlet (Liquid-Vapor Mix)

$\nu_{out} = 5.89328\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

$h_{out} = 2500.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

a) The mass flow rate of the steam is:

$\dot m = \frac{v_{in}\cdot A_{in}}{\nu_{in}}$

$\dot m = \frac{\left(60\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (0.015\,m^{2})}{0.055665\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} }$

$\dot m = 16.168\,\frac{kg}{s}$

b) The exit velocity of steam is:

$\dot m = \frac{v_{out}\cdot A_{out}}{\nu_{out}}$

$v_{out} = \frac{\dot m \cdot \nu_{out}}{A_{out}}$

$v_{out} = \frac{\left(16.168\,\frac{kg}{s} \right)\cdot \left(5.89328\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} \right)}{0.14\,m^{2}}$

$v_{out} = 680.590\,\frac{m}{s}$

c) The power output of the steam turbine is:

$\dot W_{out} = \dot m \cdot (-q_{loss} + h_{in}-h_{out})$

$\dot W_{out} = \left(16.168\,\frac{kg}{s} \right)\cdot \left(-20\,\frac{kJ}{kg} + 3650.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 2500.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}\right)$

$\dot W_{out} = 18276.307\,kW$

An aluminum alloy tube with an outside diameter of 3.50 in. and a wall thickness of 0.30 in. is used as a 14 ft long column. Ass

slega [8]

Answer:

slenderness ratio = 147.8

buckling load = 13.62 kips

Explanation:

Given data:

outside diameter is 3.50 inc

wall thickness 0.30 inc

length of column is 14 ft

E = 10,000 ksi

moment of inertia $= \frac{\pi}{64 (D_O^2 -D_i^2)}$

$I = \frac{\pi}{64}(3.5^2 -2.9^2) = 3.894 in^4$

Area $= \frac{\pi}{4} (3.5^2 -2.9^2) = 3.015 in^2$

$radius = \sqrt{\frac{I}{A}}$

$r = \sqrt{\frac{3.894}{3.015}$

r = 1.136 in

slenderness ratio $= \frac{L}{r}$

$= \frac{14 *12}{1.136} = 147.8$

buckling load $= P_cr = \frac{\pi^2 EI}}{l^2}$

$P_{cr} = \frac{\pi^2 *10,000*3.844}{( 14\times 12)^2}$

$P_{cr} = 13.62 kips$
