A cable in a motor hoist must lift a 700-lb engine. The steel cable is 0.375in. in diameter. What is the stress in the cable?

Answer:43.70 MPa

Explanation:

Given

mass of engine $700 lb \approx 317.515 kg$

diameter of cable $0.375 in.\approx 9.525 mm$

$A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}=71.26 mm^2$

we know stress( $\sigma$ ) $=\frac{load\ applied}{area\ of\ cross-section}$

$\sigma =\frac{317.515\times 9.81}{71.26\times 10^{-6}}=43.70 MPa$

To increase the thermal efficiency of a reversible power cycle operating between thermal reservoirs at TH and Tc, would you incr

<u></u> $\ T_{c}$ has greater effect.

<u>Explanation</u>:

$\eta_{\max }=1-\frac{T_{c}}{T_{A}}$

$T_{c}\\$ = Temperature of cold reservoir

$T_{H}$ = Temperature of hot reservoir

when $T_{c}$ is decreased by 't',

$\eta_{\text {incre }}$ = $1-\frac{\left(\tau_{c}-t\right)}{T_{H}}$

$=n \ + \frac{t}{T_{n}}$ $-(i)$

when ${T_{H}}$ is increased by 'T'

$\eta_{i n c}=\frac{n+\frac{t}{T_{H}}}{\left(1+\frac{k}{T_{H}}\right)}-(ii)$

$\eta_{\text {incre }} \ T_{c}>\eta_{\text {incre }} T_{\text {H }}$
