Answer:

28.6 kg

Explanation:

The final weight can be calculated from the mixing data and formulae which is given as follows:

cement content = \frac{water content}{water - cement ratio}

Computing the parameters and checking the tables gives 28.6 kg.

Answer:

The answer is 28.6 kg

Explanation:

The final weight can be calculated from the mixing data and formulae which is given as follows:

cement content = water content divided by (water minus cement ratio)

Therefore:

Cement content = water content/(water - cement ratio)

After all the parameters had been imputed and calculated, we will arrive at a value of 28.6 kg.

Advantage of a sheave wheel in a shaft headgear<br>​
NikAS [45]

Answer:

sorry if wrong

Explanation:

One sheave means that you are using a single drum winder. They are the worst! Double drum winders control easier, brake better and are much more efficient. They save time ( two skips or cages) and can be clutched to perform faster shift transport. A single drum is slow, unbalanced and can be a nightmare if it trips out during hoisting. If the brake system is not perfect it can be a real hairy experience. For a runaway single drum, there is no counterbalance effect. It always runs to destruction. With a double drum, the driver still has a chance to control the winder to a certain extent and he has two sets of brakes to rely on. A single sheave could also mean a shaft with a single compartment. No second means of escape unless there are ladders or stairways. Not a very healthy situation.

Those are just a few points. I am sure much more can be said in favor of a double drum winder and two or more sheaves in the headgear. Most of the shafts I have worked at have multiple winders and up to ten compartments. They all have a small single drum service winder for emergencies and moves of personnel during shift times. They are referred to as the Mary - Annes. Apparently, the name originated in the U.K. where an aristocratic mine owner named the first such winder after his mistress.

A steam turbine has isentropic efficiency of 0.8. Isentropically, it is supposed to deliver work of 100 kW. What is the actual w
trapecia [35]

Answer:

80 kW; 11 kW; 8 kW; 0.6

Explanation:

Part 1

Isentropic turbine efficiency:  

\eta_t = \frac{\text{Real turbine work}}{\text{isentropic turbine work}} = \frac{W_{real}}{W_s}

W_{real} = \eta_t*W_s

W_{real} = 0.8*100 kW

W_{real} = 80 kW

Part 2

Coefficient of performance COP is defined by:

COP = \frac{Q_{out}}{W}

Q_{out} = W*COP

Q_{out} = 5 kW*2.2

Q_{out} = 11 kW

Part 3

(a)

Energy balance for a refrigeration cycle gives:

Q_{in} + W = Q_{out}

3 kW + 5 kW = Q_{out}

8 kW = Q_{out}

(b)

COP = \frac{Q_{in}}{W}

COP = \frac{3 kW}{5 kW}

COP = 0.6
