Answer:

metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.

Explanation:

The four categories of engineering materials used in manufacturing are metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.

i) Metals: Metals are solids made up of atoms held by matrix of electrons. They are good conductors of heat and electricity, ductile and strong.

ii) Composite: This is a combination of two or more materials. They have high strength to weight ratio, stiff, low conductivity. E.g are wood, concrete.

iii) Ceramics: They are inorganic, non-metallic crystalline compounds with high hardness and strength as well as poor conductors of electricity and heat.

iv) Polymers: They have low weight and are poor conductors of electricity and heat

A particular motor rotates at 3000 revolutions per minute. What is its speed in rad/sec, and how many seconds does it takes to m

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

ω=314.15 rad/s.

0.02 s.

Explanation:

Given that

Motor speed ,N= 3000 revolutions per minute

N= 3000 RPM

The speed of the motor in rad/s given as

$\omega=\dfrac{2\pi N}{60}\ rad/s$

Now by putting the values in the above equation

$\omega=\dfrac{2\pi \times 3000}{60}\ rad/s$

ω=314.15 rad/s

Therefore the speed in rad/s will be 314.15 rad/s.

The speed in rev/sec given as

$\omega=\dfrac{ 3000}{60}\ rad/s$

ω= 50 rev/s

It take 1 sec to cover 50 revolutions

That is why to cover 1 revolution it take

$\dfrac{1}{50}=0.02\ s$

Determine the period of each of the following discrete-time signals (if a signal is not periodic, denote its period by infinity)

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

a) it is periodic

N = (20/3)k = 20 { for K =3}

b) it is Non-Periodic.

N = ∞

c) x(n) is periodic

N = LCM ( 5, 20 )

Explanation:

We know that In Discrete time system, complex exponentials and sinusoidal signals are periodic only when ( 2π/w₀) ratio is a rational number.

then the period of the signal is given as

N = ( 2π/w₀)K

k is least integer for which N is also integer

Now, if x(n) = x1(n) + x2(n) and if x1(n) and x2(n) are periodic then x(n) will also be periodic; given N = LCM of N1 and N2

now

a) cos(2π(0.15)n)

w₀ = 2π(0.15)

Now, 2π/w₀ = 2π/2π(0.15) = 1/(0.15) = 1×20 / ( 0.15×20) = 20/3

so, it is periodic

N = (20/3)k = 20 { for K =3}

b) cos(2n);

w₀ = 2

Now, 2π/w₀ = 2π/2) = π

so, it is Non-Periodic.

N = ∞

c) cos(π0.3n) + cos(π0.4n)

x(n) = x1(n) + x2(n)

x1(n) = cos(π0.3n)

x2(n) = cos(π0.4n)

w₀ = π0.3

2π/w₀ = 2π/π0.3 = 2/0.3 = ( 2×10)/(0.3×10) = 20/3

∴ N1 = 20

AND

w₀ = π0.4

2π/w₀ = 2π/π0. = 2/0.4 = ( 2×10)/(0.4×10) = 20/4 = 5

∴ N² = 5

so, x(n) is periodic

N = LCM ( 5, 20 )

What are primary and secondary super-heaters?

Maru [420]

Explanation:

Superheater has two types of parts which are:

The primary super-heater
The secondary super-heater

Primary super-heater is first heater which is passed by the steam after steam comes out of steam drum.

After steam is heated on super primary heater, then the steam is passed on secondary super-heater so to be heated again. Thus, on secondary super-heater, the steam formed is hottest steam among others.

Steam from secondary super-heater which becomes the superheated steam, flow to rotate the High-Pressure Turbine.
