Answer:

d = 2.69 mm

Explanation:

Assuming the cable is rated with a factor of safety of 1.

The stress on the cable is:

σ = P/A

Where

σ = normal stress

P: load

A: cross section

The section area of a circle is:

A = π/4 * d^2

Then:

σ = 4*P / (π*d^2)

Rearranging:

d^2 = 4*P / (π*σ)

d = \sqrt{4*P / (\pi*\sigma)}

Replacing:

d = \sqrt{4*800 / (\pi*\90000)} = 0.106 inches

0.106 inches = 2.69 mm

2) The switch in the circuit below has been closed a long time. At t=0, it is opened.
saul85 [17]

Answer:

  il(t) = e^(-100t)

Explanation:

The current from the source when the switch is closed is the current through an equivalent load of 15 + 50║50 = 15+25 = 40 ohms. That is, it is 80/40 = 2 amperes. That current is split evenly between the two parallel 50-ohm resistors, so the initial inductor current is 2/2 = 1 ampere.

The time constant is L/R = 0.20/20 = 0.01 seconds. Then the decaying current is described by ...

  il(t) = e^(-t/.01)

  il(t) = e^(-100t) . . . amperes

Nataly [62]

Answer:

1) The exergy of destruction is approximately 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output is approximately 5456.93 kW

Explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

P₁ = 8 MPa

T₁ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₁ = 6.727 kJ/(kg·K)

h₁ = 3399 kJ/kg

P₂ = 2 MPa

T₂ = 350°C

From which we have;

s₂ = 6.958 kJ/(kg·K)

h₂ = 3138 kJ/kg

P₃ = 2 MPa

T₃ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₃ = 7.434 kJ/(kg·K)

h₃ = 3468 kJ/kg

P₄ = 30 KPa

T₄ = 69.09 C (saturation temperature)

From which we have;

h₄ = h_{f4} + x₄×h_{fg} = 289.229 + 0.97*2335.32 = 2554.49 kJ/kg

s₄ =  s_{f4} + x₄×s_{fg} = 0.94394 + 0.97*6.8235 ≈ 7.563 kJ/(kg·K)

The exergy of destruction, \dot X_{dest}, is given as follows;

\dot X_{dest} = T₀ × \dot S_{gen} = T₀ × \dot m × (s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)

\dot X_{dest} = T₀ × \dot W×(s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)/(h₁ + h₃ - h₂ - h₄)

∴ \dot X_{dest} = 298.15 × 5000 × (7.563 + 6.958 - 6.727 - 7.434)/(3399 + 3468 - 3138  - 2554.49) ≈ 456.93 kW

The exergy of destruction ≈ 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output, \dot W_{rev} = \dot W_{} + \dot X_{dest} ≈ 5000 + 456.93 kW = 5456.93 kW

The reversible power output ≈ 5456.93 kW.
