Simple machines : wheelbarrow seesaw and pair of tongs

Tom [10]3 years ago

3 0

Answer:

Simple machine: pair of tongs, seesaw and wheelbarrow

Compound machine: sewing machine, fishing rod and reel and crane.

Explanation:

Simple machine is the simplest device to use mechanical advantages. It has simplest mechanism to multiply the magnitude of force.

So, pair of tongs, seesaw and wheelbarrow are the example of simple machine because their mechanism is simplest.

Compound machine is a device that is made up of more than one simple machine.

so, sewing machine, fishing rod and reel and crane are example of compound machine because these devices shows more than one machine in it.

Thus, classification is as follows:

Simple machine: pair of tongs, seesaw and wheelbarrow

Compound machine: sewing machine, fishing rod and reel and crane.

A particle moving in the x direction is being acted upon by a net force f(x)=cx2, for some constant

makkiz [27]

The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the work done on the particle:
$\Delta K = W$
The work done on the particle is the integral of the force on dx:
$W= \int\limits^{3L}_L {F(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^{3L}_L {cx^2} \, dx = \frac{26}{3}cL^3$
So, this corresponds to the change in kinetic energy of the particle.

A wide sloping deposit of sediment formed where a stream leaves a mountain range is called

tatuchka [14]

An alluvial fan is a wide, sloping deposit of sediment formed where a stream leaves a mountain range. Make sure not to confuse it with a delta. A delta is a landform made of sediment that is deposited where a river flows into an ocean or lake. Hope this helped!

] A new coal-fired 750 MWe power plant with a thermal efficiency of 42% burns 9000 Btu/lb coal, which contains 1.1% sulfur. a. I

Valentin [98]

Answer:

The net emissions rate of sulfur is 1861 lb/hr

Explanation:

Given that:

The power or the power plant = 750 MWe

Since the power plant with a thermal efficiency of 42% (i.e. 0.42) burns 9000 Btu/lb coal, Then the energy released per one lb of the coal can be computed as:

$\mathtt{=( 0.42\times 9000\times 1055.06) J}$

= 3988126.8 J

= 3.99 MJ

Also, The mass of the burned coal per sec can be calculated by dividing the molecular weight of the power plant by the energy released per one lb.

i.e.

The mass of the coal that is burned per sec $=\dfrac{750}{3.99}$

The mass of the coal that is burned per sec = 187.97 lb/s

The mass of sulfur burned $= \dfrac{1.1}{100} \times 187.97 \ lb/s$

= 2.067 lb/s

To hour; we have:

= 7444 lb/hr

However, If a scrubber with 75% removal efficiency is utilized,

Then; the net emissions rate of sulfur is (1 - 0.75) × 7444 lb/hr

= 0.25 × 7444 lb/hr

= 1861 lb/hr

Hence, the net emissions rate of sulfur is 1861 lb/hr
