Answer:500,551.02

Explanation:

Given

Initial enthaly of pump \left ( h_1\right )=500KJ/kg

Final  enthaly of pump \left ( h_2\right )=550KJ/kg

Final  enthaly of pump when efficiency is 100%=h_2^{'}

Now pump efficiency is 98%

\eta=\frac{h_2-h_1}{h_2^{'}-h_1}

0.98=\frac{550-500}{h_2-500}

h_2=551.02KJ/kg

therefore initial and final enthalpy of pump for 100 % efficiency

initial=500KJ/kg

Final=551.02KJ/kg

How does java achieve portable
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Java is called portable because you can compile a java code which will spew out a byte-code, and then you run that code with Java Virtual Machine. Java Virtual Machine is like an interpreter, which reads the compiled byte-code and runs it. So first of all, you need to install the JVM on the system you want.

For an Otto cycle, plot the cycle efficiency as a function of compression ratio from 4 to 16.
Elza [17]

Assumptions:

  • Steady state.
  • Air as working fluid.
  • Ideal gas.
  • Reversible process.
  • Ideal Otto Cycle.

Explanation:

Otto cycle is a thermodynamic cycle widely used in automobile engines, in which an amount of gas (air) experiences changes of pressure, temperature, volume, addition of heat, and removal of heat. The cycle is composed by (following the P-V diagram):

  • Intake <em>0-1</em>: the mass of working fluid is drawn into the piston at a constant pressure.
  • Adiabatic compression <em>1-2</em>: the mass of working fluid is compressed isentropically from State 1 to State 2 through compression ratio (r).

        r =\frac{V_1}{V_2}

  • Ignition 2-3: the volume remains constant while heat is added to the mass of gas.
  • Expansion 3-4: the working fluid does work on the piston due to the high pressure within it, thus the working fluid reaches the maximum volume through the compression ratio.

         r = \frac{V_4}{V_3} = \frac{V_1}{V_2}

  • Heat Rejection 4-1: heat is removed from the working fluid as the pressure drops instantaneously.
  • Exhaust 1-0: the working fluid is vented to the atmosphere.

If the system produces enough work, the automobile and its occupants will propel. On the other hand, the efficiency of the Otto Cycle is defined as follows:

           \eta = 1-(\frac{1}{r^{\gamma - 1} } )

where:

           \gamma = \frac{C_{p} }{C_{v}} : specific heat ratio

Ideal air is the working fluid, as stated before, for which its specific heat ratio can be considered constant.

           \gamma = 1.4

Answer:

See image attached.

1. A thin plate of a ceramic material with E = 225 GPa is loaded in tension, developing a stress of 450 MPa. Is the specimen lik
mina [271]

Answer:

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 (= 22.5)

Explanation:

If the maximum strength at tip Is greater than theoretical fracture strength value then fracture will occur and if the maximum strength is lower than theoretical fracture strength then no fracture will occur.

\sigma_m = 2\sigma_o [\frac{a}{\rho_t}]^{1/2}

=  2\times 750 (\frac{\frac{0.2mm}{2}}{0.001 mm}})^{1/2}

                 = 15 GPa

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 = 22.5
