The cables of a power line are copper-coated steel wire. The overall diameter of the wire is 5/8 in. The steel core has a diamet

er of 1/2 in.
If the maximum tension in a wire is 8000 lb, what are the stresses in the steel and the copper?

Answer:

The stresses in steel and the copper are, 128 ksi and 72.44 ksi, respectively.

Explanation:

In this case, we need to calculate the area of both portions separately.

Thus, we know that:

Inner Radius = Rin = (1/2 in)/2 = 0.25 in

Outer Radius = Rout = (5/8 in)/2 = 0.3125 in

FOR STEEL CORE:

Area of steel core = As = π(Rin)² = π(0.25 in)² = 0.0625 in²

Hence, the stress will be:

σs = Force / As

σs = 8000 lb/ 0.0625 in²

<u>σs = 128 ksi</u>

FOR COPPER:

Area of copper = Ac = π[(Rout)² - (Rin)²]

Ac = π[(0.3125 in)² - (0.25 in)²] = 0.11044 in²

Hence, the stress will be:

σc = Force / Ac

σc = 8000 lb/ 0.11044 in²

<u>σc = 72.44 ksi</u>

An Ideal gas is being heated in a circular duct as while flowing over an electric heater of 130 kW. The diameter of duct is 500
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Exit temperature = 32 °C

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial Pressure;P1 = 100 KPa

Cp =1000 J/kg.K = 1 KJ/kg.k

R = 500 J/kg.K = 0.5 Kj/Kg.k

Initial temperature;T1 = 27°C = 273 + 27K = 300 K

volume flow rate;V' = 15 m³/s

W = 130 Kw

Q = 80 Kw

Using ideal gas equation,

PV' = m'RT

Where m' is mass flow rate.

Thus;making m' the subject, we have;

m' = PV'/RT

So at inlet,

m' = P1•V1'/(R•T1)

m' = (100 × 15)/(0.5 × 300)

m' = 10 kg/s

From steady flow energy equation, we know that;

m'•h1 + Q = m'h2 + W

Dividing through by m', we have;

h1 + Q/m' = h2 + W/m'

h = Cp•T

Thus,

Cp•T1 + Q/m' = Cp•T2 + W/m'

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

(1*300) - (80/10) = (1*T2) - (130/10)

Q and M negative because heat is being lost.

300 - 8 + 13 = T2

T2 = 305 K = 305 - 273 °C = 32 °C

13000 + 300 - 8000 = T2

Kryger [21]

Answer:

I know it is C)Virtual reality

Explanation:

Look at the clues

story about putting on a headset ( virtual reality head set!)

seeing a digital world (A virtual reality world)

they could walk around in (Fake walking you are basically jogging in place)

explore in order to see what ancient Benin looked like (Looking at a real place only digitally)

as if they were really there ( they think they are actually there)

The only reason I know all of this is because I have done virtual reality multiple times and I LOVED it SUPER fun ( I was doing archery) :) Hope this helps!
