Answer:

F = 641,771.52 \dfrac{lb-ft}{s^2}

Explanation:

Given that

R=8 ft

Width= 10 ft

We know that hydro statics force given as

  F=ρ g A X

ρ is the density of fluid

A projected area on vertical plane

X is distance of center mass of projected plane from free surface of water.

Here

X=8/2  ⇒X=4 ft

A=8 x 10=80  ft^2

So now putting the values

F=ρ g A X

F=62.4(32.14)(80)(4)

F = 641,771.52 \dfrac{lb-ft}{s^2}

What does this middle button on the middle of my Chevrolet equinox steering wheel mean?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Depending on how new your vehicle is, to me it looks like some sort of turn on button for forward collision safety feature, but i'm not an expert with this particular vehicle. If you want a better answer, I strongly suggest looking at the owner's manual under which should be located in the front dash compartment on the passengers side. Once you have the manual, look in the appendix until you find controls (or something similar) then go to that page and read about your vehicles control buttons. Your answer should be in the manual.

Something that all automobile owners should do right after purchasing a new vehicle, is reading the owners manual. As boring as it may seem, reading the owner's manual will help you get used to your new car quicker and give you instructions on how to take care of your car so that it lasts.

Have a great day, and I wish you safe traveling for now and forever! :)

A material has the following properties: Sut = 275 MPa and n = 0.40. Calculate its strength coefficient, K.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The strength coefficient is K = 591.87 MPa

Explanation:

We can calculate the strength coefficient using the equation that relates the tensile strength with the strain hardening index given by

S_{ut}=K \left(\cfrac ne \right)^n

where Sut is the tensile strength, K is the strength coefficient we need to find and n is the strain hardening index.

Solving for strength coefficient

From the strain hardening equation we can solve for K

K = \cfrac{S_{ut}}{\left(\cfrac ne \right)^n}

And we can replace values

K = \cfrac{275}{\left(\cfrac {0.4}e \right)^{0.4}}\\K=591.87

Thus we get that the strength coefficient is K = 591.87 MPa

Methane gas is 304 C with 4.5 tons of mass flow per hour to an uninsulated horizontal pipe with a diameter of 25 cm. It enters a
Arada [10]

Answer:

a) h_c = 0.1599 W/m^2-K

b) H_{loss} = 5.02 W

c) T_s = 302 K

d) \dot{Q} = 25.125 W

Explanation:

Non horizontal pipe diameter, d = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Radius, r = 0.25/2 = 0.125 m

Entry temperature, T₁ = 304 + 273 = 577 K

Exit temperature, T₂ = 284 + 273 = 557 K

Ambient temperature, T_a = 25^0 C = 298 K

Pipe length, L = 10 m

Area, A = 2πrL

A = 2π * 0.125 * 10

A = 7.855 m²

Mass flow rate,

\dot{ m} = 4.5 tons/hr\\\dot{m} = \frac{4.5*1000}{3600}  = 1.25 kg/sec

Rate of heat transfer,

\dot{Q} = \dot{m} c_p ( T_1 - T_2)\\\dot{Q} = 1.25 * 1.005 * (577 - 557)\\\dot{Q} = 25.125 W

a) To calculate the convection coefficient relationship for heat transfer by convection:

\dot{Q} = h_c A (T_1 - T_2)\\25.125 = h_c * 7.855 * (577 - 557)\\h_c = 0.1599 W/m^2 - K

Note that we cannot calculate the heat loss by the pipe to the environment without first calculating the surface temperature of the pipe.

c) The surface temperature of the pipe:

Smear coefficient of the pipe, k_c = 0.8

\dot{Q} = k_c A (T_s - T_a)\\25.125 = 0.8 * 7.855 * (T_s - 298)\\T_s = 302 K

b) Heat loss from the pipe to the environment:

H_{loss} = h_c A(T_s - T_a)\\H_{loss} = 0.1599 * 7.855( 302 - 298)\\H_{loss} = 5.02 W

d) The required fan control power is 25.125 W as calculated earlier above
