Answer:

Absolute pressure , P(abs)= 433.31 KPa

Explanation:

Given that

Gauge pressure P(gauge)=  50 psi

We know that barometer reads atmospheric pressure

Atmospheric pressure P(atm) = 29.1 inches of Hg

We know that

1 psi = 6.89 KPa

So 50 psi = 6.89 x 50 KPa

P(gauge)=  50 psi =344.72 KPa

We know that

1 inch = 0.0254 m

29.1 inches = 0.739 m

Atmospheric pressure P(atm) = 0.739 m of Hg

We know that density of Hg =13.6\times 10^3\ kg/m^3

P = ρ g h

P(atm) = 13.6 x 1000 x 9.81 x 0.739 Pa

P(atm) = 13.6  x 9.81 x 0.739 KPa

P(atm) =98.54 KPa

Now

Absolute pressure = Gauge pressure + Atmospheric pressure

P(abs)=P(gauge) + P(atm)

P(abs)= 344.72 KPa + 98.54 KPa

P(abs)= 433.31 KPa

3) Explain how dc machines Can work as motor and generator​
weeeeeb [17]

The working principle of a DC machine is when electric current flows through a coil within a magnetic field, and then the magnetic force generates a torque that rotates the dc motor. The DC machines are classified into two types such as DC generator as well as DC motor.

A pipe of 0.3 m outer diameter at a temperature of 160°C is insulated with a material having a thermal conductivity of k = 0.055
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Q=0.95 W/m

Explanation:

Given that

Outer diameter = 0.3 m

Thermal conductivity of material

K= 0.055(1+2.8\times 10^{-3}T)\frac{W}{mK}

So the mean conductivity

K_m=0.055\left ( 1+2.8\times 10^{-3}T_m \right )

T_m=\dfrac{160+273+40+273}{2}

T_m=373 K

K_m=0.055\left ( 1+2.8\times 10^{-3}\times 373 \right )

K_m=0.112 \frac{W}{mK}

So heat conduction through cylinder

Q=kA\dfrac{\Delta T}{L}

Q=0.112\times \pi \times 0.15^2\times 120

Q=0.95 W/m

I am having trouble understanding how I got these wrong on my test. Is there something I am missing with xor?
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

  your answer is correct

Explanation:

You have the correct mapping from inputs to outputs. The only thing your teacher may disagree with is the ordering of your inputs. They might be written more conventionally as ...

 A B Y

 0 0 1

 0 1 0

 1 0 0

 1 1 1

That is, your teacher may be looking for the pattern 1001 in the last column without paying attention to what you have written in column B.
