Answer:

(b) 56%

Explanation:

the maximum thermal efficiency is possible only when power cycle is reversible in nature and when power cycle is reversible in nature the thermal efficiency depends on the temperature

here we have given T₁ (Higher temperature)= 600+273=873

lower temperature T₂=110+273=383

Efficiency of power cycle is given by =1-\frac{T2}{T1}

=1-\frac{383}{873}

=1-0.43871

=.56

=56%

If the rotational speed of a pump motor is reduced by 35%, what is the effect on the pump performance in terms of capacity, head
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

- the capacity of the pump reduces by 35%.

- the head gets reduced by 57%.

the power consumption by the pump is reduced by 72%

Explanation:

the pump capacity is related to the speed as speed is reduces by 35%

so new speed is (100 - 35) = 65% of orginal speed

speed Q ∝ N ⇒ Q1/Q2 = N1/N2

Q2 = (N2/N1)Q1    

Q2 = (65/100)Q1

which means that the capacity of the pump is also reduces by 35%.

the head in a pump is related by

H ∝ N² ⇒ H1/H2 = N1²/N2²

H2 = (N2N1)²H1

H2 = (65/100)²H1 = 0.4225H1

so the head gets reduced by 1 - 0.4225 = 0.5775 which is 57%.

Now The power requirement of a pump is related as

P ∝ N³ ⇒ P1/P2 = N1³/N2³

P2 = (N2/N1)³P1

H2 = (65/100)²P1 = 0.274P1

So the reduction in power is 1 - 0.274 = 0.725 which is 72%

Therefore for a reduction of 35% of speed there is a reduction of 72% of the power consumption by the pump.

A small pad subjected to a shearing force is deformed at the top of the pad 0.08 in. The height of the pad is 1.38 in. What is t
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The shear strain is 0.05797 rad.

Explanation:

Shear strain is the ratio of change in dimension along the shearing load direction to the height of the plate under application of shear load. Width of the plate remains same. Length of the plate slides under shear load.

Step1

Given:

Height of the pad is 1.38 in.

Deformation at the top of the pad is 0.08 in.

Calculation:

Step2

Shear strain is calculated as follows:

tan\phi=\frac{\bigtriangleup l}{h}

tan\phi=\frac{0.08}{1.38}

tan\phi= 0.05797

For small angle of \phi, tan\phi can take as\phi.

\phi = 0.05797 rad.

Thus, the shear strain is 0.05797 rad.
