Water, in a 150 in^3 rigid tank, initially has a temperature of 70°F and an enthalpy of 723.5 Btu/lbm. Heat is added until the w

ater becomes a saturated vapor. Calculate: a) The initial quality of the water b) The total mass of the water c) The temperature of the water at the final state.

Answer:

a)initial quality of water 0.724.

b)mass of water =2.45 kg

c)T=70°F

Explanation:

h=732.5 Btu/lbm

 h=763.33 KJ/kg      (1 Btu=1.05 kj)

T=70°F⇒T=21.1°C

V=150 in^3=0.002458m^3

(a)From steam table

Properties of saturated steam at 21.1°C  

 h_f= 88.56\frac{KJ}{Kg} ,h_g= 2539.49\frac{KJ}{Kg}

To find dryness fraction

h=h_f+x(h_g-h_f)\frac{KJ}{Kg}

763.33=88.56+x(2539.49-88.56)\frac{KJ}{Kg}

x=0.27

So initial quality of water 0.724.

(b)

v=v_f+x(v_g-v_f)\frac{m^3}{Kg}

where v is specific volume

From steam table at 21.1°C  

v_f= 0.001\frac{m^3}{Kg} ,v_g= 54.13\frac{m^3}{Kg}

V=m_f\times v_f

0.002458=m_f\times 0.001

So mass of water =2.45 kg

(c)

Actually water will take latent heat ,it means that heating of will take place at constant temperature and constant pressure.So we can say that final temperature of water will remain same (T=70°F).

In a tensile test on a steel specimen, true strain = 0.12 at a stress of 250 MPa. When true stress = 350 MPa, true strain = 0.26
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The strength coefficient is 625 and the strain-hardening exponent is 0.435

Explanation:

Given the true strain is 0.12 at 250 MPa stress.

Also, at 350 MPa the strain is 0.26.

We need to find  (K) and the (n).

\sigma =K\epsilon^n

We will plug the values in the formula.

250=K\times (0.12)^n\\350=K\times (0.26)^n

We will solve these equation.

K=\frac{250}{(0.12)^n} plug this value in 350=K\times (0.26)^n

350=\frac{250}{(0.12)^n}\times (0.26)^n\\ \\\frac{350}{250}=\frac{(0.26)^n}{(0.12)^n}\\  \\1.4=(2.17)^n

Taking a natural log both sides we get.

ln(1.4)=ln(2.17)^n\\ln(1.4)=n\times ln(2.17)\\n=\frac{ln(1.4)}{ln(2.17)}\\ n=0.435

Now, we will find value of K

K=\frac{250}{(0.12)^n}

K=\frac{250}{(0.12)^{0.435}}\\ \\K=\frac{250}{0.40}\\\\K=625

So, the strength coefficient is 625 and the strain-hardening exponent is 0.435.

different lever designs can be engineered to alter the brake pedal effort required of the driver by using different levels of ?
enot [183]

Different lever designs can be engineered and developed to alter the brake pedal effort required of the driver by using different levels of <u>mechanical advantage</u>.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage?</h3>

Mechanical advantage can be defined as a ratio of the output force of a lever to the force acting on it (input force or effort), assuming no losses due to wear, flexibility, tear or friction.

This ultimately implies that, different lever designs can be suitably engineered and developed to alter the brake pedal effort (input force) that is required of the driver, especially by using different levels of <u>mechanical advantage</u>.

igomit [66]

Answer:

According to many of the states' driving rules.

All vehicles of 3,000 pounds or more are required to have a brake system that makes them break as a response to the breaking of the vehicle's tow.

Explanation:

The reason behind this answer is that vehicles of more than 3,000 pounds are extremely dangerous and difficult to control. Therefore, when the tow breaks the automatic brake system is required. Because they are too big to be controlled, and if they are left without a brake system to reduce their damage they can destroy entire houses or other cars if this mechanism is not implemented.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

The coattail effect

Explanation:

Clearly, the Daggies franchise were a huge part of Marco's success and attracted many customers for the business. This is why Marco deteriorated as soon as many Daggies franchisees closed.

The coattail effect is the phenomenon where an influencing member in a party (franchisee in this case)  contributes largely to the success of another, which is the case with Marco and Daggies
