Tech A says that thrust angle refers to the direction the front wheels are pointing. Tech B says that scrub radius refers to the

vertical centerline of the tire in relation to an imaginary line through the steering knuckle pivots. Who is correct?

Both of the technicians are correct.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The thrust angle is defined as the angle formed by the imaginary line drawn perpendicular to the rear axis center line. It is used in alignment of the four wheels.

It is also used to determine the direction the front wheels are pointing. While the scrub radius is the intersecting point of the vertical center line of front tires with the imaginary line drawn from the steering knuckles.

Thus both the technicians are saying correct. The thrust angle and scrub radius are used to determine the alignment of wheels, if there is any misalignment in wheels then it needs to make it correct to prevent accidents.

A vacuum gage connected to a tank reads 30 kPa at a location where the barometric reading is 755 mmHg. Determine the absolute pr
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa

Explanation:

Given that Vacuum gauge pressure= 30 KPa

Barometer reading =755 mm Hg

We know that barometer always reads atmospheric pressure at given situation.So  atmospheric pressure is equal to  755 mm Hg.

We know that P= ρ g h

Density of Hg=13600 \frac{kg}{m^3}

So P=13600 x 9.81 x 0.755

P=100.72 KPa

We know that

Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure

But here given that 30 KPa is a Vacuum pressure ,so we will take it as negative.

Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure

Absolute pressure=100.72 - 30   KPa

So

Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa

A stationary gas-turbine power plant operates on a simple ideal Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid. The air enters the
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

A) W' = 15680 KW

B) W' = 17113.87 KW

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature at state 1; T1 = 290 K

Temperature at state 3; T3 = 1100 K

Rate of heat transfer; Q_in = 35000 kJ/s = 35000 Kw

Pressure of air into compressor; P_c = 95 kPa

Pressure of air into turbine; P_t = 760 kPa

A) The power assuming constant specific heats at room temperature is gotten from;

W' = [1 - ((T4 - T1)/(T3 - T2))] × Q_in

Now, we don't have T4 and T2 but they can be gotten from;

T4 = [T3 × (r_p)^((1 - k)/k)]

T2 = [T1 × (r_p)^((k - 1)/k)]

r_p = P_t/P_c

r_p = 760/95

r_p = 8

Also,k which is specific heat capacity of air has a constant value of 1.4

Thus;

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

T4 = [(1100 × (8^((1 - 1.4)/1.4)]

T4 = 607.25 K

T2 = [290 × (8^((1.4 - 1)/1.4)]

T2 = 525.32 K

Thus;

W' = [1 - ((607.25 - 290)/(1100 - 525.32))] × 35000

W' = 0.448 × 35000

W' = 15680 KW

B) The power accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature is given by;

W' = [1 - ((h4 - h1)/(h3 - h2))] × Q_in

From the table attached, we have the following;

At temperature of 607.25 K and by interpolation; h4 = 614.64 KJ/K

At T3 = 1100 K, h3 = 1161.07 KJ/K

At T1 = 290 K, h1 = 290.16 KJ/K

At T2 = 525.32 K, and by interpolation, h2 = 526.12 KJ/K

Thus;

W' = [1 - ((614.64 - 290.16)/(1161.07 - 526.12))] × 35000

W' = 17113.87 KW

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The entropy change of the air is 0.240kJ/kgK

Explanation:

T_{1} =427+273K,T_{1} =700K\\P_{1} =600kPa\\P_{2} =100kPa

T_{2}  is unknown

we can apply the following expression to find T_{2}

-w_{out} =mc_{v} (T_{2} -T_{1} )

T_{2} =T_{1} -\frac{w_{out } }{mc_{v} }

now substitute

T_{2} =700K-\frac{600kJ}{5kg*0.718kJ/kgK} \\T_{2}=533K

To find entropy change of the air we can apply the ideal gas relationship

Δs_{air}=c_{p} ln\frac{T_{2} }{T_{1} } -Rln\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} }

Δs_{air} =1.005*ln(\frac{533}{700})-0.287* in(\frac{100}{600} )

Δs_{air} =0.240kJ/kgK
