In order to impress your neighbors and improve your vision in traffic jams, you decide to mount a cylindrical periscope 2.0 m hi

gh and 0.1 m in diameter on top of your car. You consult the literature and find that the drag coefficient (based on frontal area) is 1.1 for Re<200,000 (Re based on diameter) and drops to 0.35 for Re>200,000. Using this information, answer the three questions given. (HINT: make a sketch)The periscope's drag at your maximum speed of 75 mph is about:(A) 45 N(B) 4 N(C) 450 N(D) 5 N

A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine operates at 2800 RPM. The processes within each cylinder are modeled as
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1) 287760.4 Hp

2) 18410899.5 kPa

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

p₁ = 14.7 lbf/in² = 101325.9 Pa

v₁ = 0.0196 ft³ = 0.00055501 m³

T₁ = 80°F = 299.8167 K

k = 1.4

Assumptions;

1) Air standard conditions are appropriate

2) There are negligible potential and kinetic energy changes

3) The air behaves as an ideal gas and has constant specific heat capacities of temperature and pressure

1) Process 1 to 2

Isentropic compression

T₂/T₁ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4 - 1) = 10^0.4

p₂/p₁ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4)

p₂ = p₁×10^0.4 =  101325.9*10^0.4 = 254519.153 Pa

T₂ = 299.8167*10^0.4 = 753.106 K

p₃ = 1080 lbf/in² = 7,446,338 Pa

Stage 2 to 3 is a constant volume process

p₃/T₃ = p₂/T₂

7,446,338/T₃ =   254519.153/753.106

T₃ = 7,446,338/(254519.153/753.106) = 22033.24 K

T₃/T₄ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4 - 1) = 10^0.4

T₄ = 22033.24/(10^0.4) = 8771.59 K

The heat supplied, Q₁ = cv(T₃ - T₂) = 0.718*(22033.24 -753.106) = 15279.14 kJ

The heat rejected = cv(T₄ - T₁) = 0.718*(8771.59 - 299.8167) = 6082.73 kJ

W(net) = The heat supplied - The heat rejected = (15279.14 - 6082.73) = 9196.41 kJ

The power = W(net) × RPM/2*1/60 = 9196.41 * 2800/2*1/60 = 214582.9 kW

The power by the engine = 214582.9 kW = 287760.4 Hp

2) The mean effective pressure, MEP  = W(net)/(v₁ - v₂)

v₁ = 0.00055501 m³

v₁/v₂ = 10

v₂ = v₁/10 = 0.00055501/10 = 0.000055501

MEP  = 9196.41/(0.00055501 -  0.000055501) = 18410899.5 kPa

A meter stick can be read to the nearest millimeter and a travelling microscope can be read to the nearest 0.1 mm. Suppose you w
german

Answer: No

Explanation:

Length= 2cm= 20mm

Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.

It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm

Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.

There have been many attempts to manufacture and market plastic bicycles. All have been too flexible and soft. Which design-limi
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The design-limiting property that insufficiently large is the elastic modulus (Young modulus)

Explanation:

Plastic usually have a relatively low elastic modulus, this couses the material to deform too much under stress. In the case of a bicycle, a little weight you put on it or little bumps will cause the bicycle to deform too much.

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a) the two-way concrete joist framing system

Explanation:

A waffle slab is also known as ribbed slab, it is a slab which as waffle like appearance with holes beneath. It is adopted in construction projects that has long length, length more than 12m. The waffle slab is rigid, therefore it is used in building that needs minimal vibration.
