Calculate the load, PP, that would cause AA to be displaced 0.01 inches to the right. The wires ABAB and ACAC are A36 steel and

½" in diameter. The wires are 12 inches long before PP is applied and both are oriented at 30 degrees from horizontal (i.e., total angle at A is 60 degrees).

Answer:

P = 4.745 kips

Explanation:

Given

ΔL = 0.01 in

E = 29000 KSI

D = 1/2 in  

LAB = LAC = L = 12 in

We get the area as follows

A = π*D²/4 = π*(1/2 in)²/4 = (π/16) in²

Then we use the formula

ΔL = P*L/(A*E)

For AB:

ΔL(AB) = PAB*L/(A*E) = PAB*12 in/((π/16) in²*29*10⁶ PSI)

⇒  ΔL(AB) = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAB

For AC:

ΔL(AC) = PAC*L/(A*E) = PAC*12 in/((π/16) in²*29*10⁶ PSI)

⇒  ΔL(AC) = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAC

Now, we use the condition

ΔL = ΔL(AB)ₓ + ΔL(AC)ₓ = ΔL(AB)*Cos 30° + ΔL(AC)*Cos 30° = 0.01 in

⇒  ΔL = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAB*Cos 30°+(2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAC*Cos 30°= 0.01 in

Knowing that   PAB*Cos 30°+PAC*Cos 30° = P

we have

(2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*P = 0.01 in

⇒  P = 4745.11 lb = 4.745 kips

Air at 2.5 bar, 400 K is extracted from a main jet engine compressor for cabin cooling. The extracted air enters a heat exchange
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

a) Power developed by the turbine = 132.89 kW

b) magnitude of the rate of heat transfer from the air to the ambient, in kw = 251.25 kW

Explanation:

b) The process is a constant pressure process (Isobaric process)

The constant pressure specific heat of air, c_{p} = 1.005 kJ/kg -K

Specific heat ratio for air, \gamma = 1.4

The mass flow rate of air, \dot{m} = 2.5 kg/s

P₁ = 2.5 bar, T₁ = 400 K

P₂ = 2.5 bar, T₂ = 300 K

Using the steady flow energy equation:

Q_{1-2}  = \dot{m} c_{p} (T_{2} - T_{1} \\Q_{1-2}  = 2.5 * 1.005 * (300 - 400)\\Q_{1-2}  = -251.25 kW

Therefore, the magnitude of the rate of heat transfer from the air to the ambient, in kw, Q_{1-2} = 251.25 kW

a) For the isentropic process:

Power developed by the turbine is given by the relation \dot{W} = \dot{M}  c_{p} (T_{2} - T_{3})

Isentropic efficiency, \eta_{t} = 80%

P₂ = 2.5 bar, T₂ = 300 K

P₃ = 1 bar, T_{3s} = ? where T_{3s} is the isentropic temperature at 100% efficiency

The isentropic relation is given by:

\frac{T_{3s} }{T_{2} } = (\frac{P_{3} }{P_{2} }) ^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma} } \\\frac{T_{3s} }{300 } = (\frac{1 }{2.5 }) ^{\frac{1.4 - 1}{1.4 }

T_{3s} = 230.9 K

To get the temperature at 80% efficiency, we will use the relation:

\eta_{t} = \frac{T_{2} - T_{3}  }{T_{2} - T_{3s} } \\0.8= \frac{300 - T_{3}  }{300 - 230.9 }

T₃ = 244.72 K

Power developed by the turbine is given by the relation:

\dot{W} = \dot{M}  c_{p} (T_{2} - T_{3})\\ \dot{W} = 2.5 * 1.005* (300-244.72)\\ \dot{W} = 138.89 kW

A rigid tank contains an ideal gas at 40°C that is being stirred by a paddle wheel. The paddle wheel does 240 kJ of work on the
Sergeu [11.5K]

To solve the problem it is necessary to consider the concepts and formulas related to the change of ideal gas entropy.

By definition the entropy change would be defined as

\Delta S = C_p ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1})-Rln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})

Using the Boyle equation we have

\Delta S = C_p ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1})-Rln(\frac{v_1T_2}{v_2T_1})

Where,

C_p = Specific heat at constant pressure

T_1= Initial temperature of gas

T_2= Final temprature of gas

R = Universal gas constant

v_1= Initial specific Volume of gas

v_2= Final specific volume of gas

According to the statement, it is an isothermal process and the tank is therefore rigid

T_1 = T_2, v_2=v_1

The equation would turn out as

\Delta S = C_p ln1-ln1

<em>Therefore the entropy change of the ideal gas is 0</em>

Into the surroundings we have that

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T}

Where,

Q = Heat Exchange

T = Temperature in the surrounding

Replacing with our values we have that

\Delta S = \frac{230kJ}{(30+273)K}

\Delta S = 0.76 kJ/K

<em>Therefore the increase of entropy into the surroundings is 0.76kJ/K</em>

You are in charge of ordering the concrete for a basement wall concrete pour. The wall forms are all set up and ready. The wall
choli [55]

Answer:

189.15cy

Explanation:

To understand this problem we need to understand as well the form.

It is clear that there is four wall, two short and two long.

The two long are \rightarrow 120ft5in+2(10ft)

The two long are \rightarrow 122ft1in=122.08ft

The two shors are \rightarrow 86ft4.5in = 86.375ft

The height and the thickness are 14ft and 0.83ft respectively.

So we only calculate the Quantity of concrete,

Q_c = [(2*122.08)+(2*86-375)]*14*0.833\\Q_c=4864.02ft^3

That in cubic yards is equal to 180.15 (1cy=27ft^3)

Hence, we need order 5% plus that represent with the quantity

Q_{ordered}=1.05*180.15=189.15cy
