Answer:

a) 1.16 m/s

b)  1/216000

c)  (√15)/6480000

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Length of boat prototype, lp = 30 m

Speed of boat prototype = 9 m/s

Length of boat model, lm= 0.5 m

a) lm/lp = 0.5/30 = 1/60 = ∝

(vm/vp) = ∝^(1/2) = √∝ = (1/60)^(1/2)

vm = 9 × (1/60)^(1/2) = 1.16 m/s

b) The ratio of the model to prototype drag, Fm/Fp, is given as follows;

Fm/Fp = (vm/vp)²×(lm/lp)² = ∝³

Fm/Fp = (1/60)³ = 1/216000

c) The ratio of the model to prototype power  pm/p_p = (Fm/Fp) × (vm/vp) = ∝³×√∝

The ratio of the model to prototype power  pm/p_p = √(1/60) × (1/60)³

pm/p_p = √(1/60) × (1/60)³ = (√15)/6480000

A square-thread power screw has a major diameter of 32 mm and a pitch of 4 mm with single threads, and it is used to raise a loa
Valentin [98]

Answer:

54mm.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information that is going to assist in solving this type of question efficiently;

=> "A square-thread power screw has a major diameter of 32 mm"

=> "a pitch of 4 mm with single threads"

=> " and it is used to raise a load putting a force of 6.5 kN on the screw."

=> The coefficient of friction for both the collar and screw is .08."

=> "If the torque from the motored used to raise the load is limited to 26 N×M."

Step one: determine the lead angle. The lead angle can be calculated by using the formula below;

Lead angle = Tan^- (bg × T/ Jh × π ).

=> Jh = J - T/ 2. = 32 - 4/2. = 30mm.

Lead angle = Tan^- { 1 × 4/ π × 30} = 2.43°.

Step two: determine the Torque required to against thread friction.

Starting from; phi = tan^-1 ( 0.08) = 4.57°.

Torque required to against thread friction = W × Jh/2 × tan (lead angle + phi).

Torque required to against thread friction =( 6500 × 30/2) × tan ( 2.43° + 4.57°). = 11971.49Nmm.

Step three: determine the Torque required to against collar friction.

=> 2600 - 11971.49Nmm = 14028.51Nmm.

Step four = determine the mean collar friction.

Mean collar friction = 14028.51Nmm/0.08 × 6500 = 27mm

The mean collar diameter = 27 × 2 = 54mm.

Superheated water vapor at a pressure of 20 MPa, a temperature of 500oC, and a flow rate of 10 kg/s is to be brought to a satura
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

1.96 kg/s.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which we are going to use in solving this question effectively and these data are;

=> Superheated water vapor at a pressure = 20 MPa,

=> temperature = 500°C,

=> " flow rate of 10 kg/s is to be brought to a saturated vapor state at 10 MPa in an open feedwater heater."

=> "mixing this stream with a stream of liquid water at 20°C and 10 MPa."

K1 = 3241.18, k2 = 93.28 and 2725.47.

Therefore, m1 + m2= m3.

10(3241.18) + m2 (93.28) = (10 + m3) 2725.47.

=> 1.96 kg/s.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

a)supplying the  intake of an engine  with air at a  density greater  than the density  of the surrounding  atmosphere

Explanation:

Supercharging  is the process of  supplying the  intake of an engine  with air at a  density greater  than the density  of the surrounding  atmosphere.

By doing this , it increases  the power out put  and increases the  brake thermal  efficiency of the  engine.It also  increases the  volumetric efficiency of the  engine.

So the our  option a is  right.
