If the 1550-lb boom AB, the 190-lb cage BCD, and the 169-lb man have centers of gravity located at points G1, G2 and G3, respect
ively, determine the resultant moment produced by all the weights about point A.
1 answer:
Answer:
hello the required diagram is missing attached to the answer is the required diagram
7.9954 kip.ft
Explanation:
AB = 1550-Ib ( weight acting on AB )
BCD = 190 - Ib ( weight of cage )
169-Ib = weight of man inside cage
Attached is the free hand diagram of the question
calculate distance
= cos 75⁰ =
= 2.59 ft
calculate distance x
= cos 75⁰ =
x = 30 * cos 75⁰ = 7.765 ft
The resultant moment produced by all the weights about point A
∑ Ma = 0
Ma = 1550 * + 190 ( x + 2.5 ) + 169 ( x + 2.5 + 1.75 )
Ma = 1550 * 2.59 + 190 ( 7.765 + 2.5 ) + 169 ( 7.765 + 2.5 + 1.75 )
= 4014.5 + 1950.35 + 2030.535
= 7995.385 ft. Ib ≈ 7.9954 kip.ft

Solution :
Methods for selling pressure of a distillation column :
a). Set, the overhead stream using cooling water.
(minimum of approximate 45°C condenser temperature)
b). Set, of bottom product that avoids decomposition or reaction.
c). Set, not utility for reboiler.
Running the distillation column above the ambient pressure because :
The components to be distilled have very high vapor pressures and the temperature at which they can be condensed at or below the ambient pressure.
Run the reactor at an evaluated temperature because :
a). The rate of reaction is taster. This results in a small reactor or high phase conversion.
b). The reaction is endothermic and equilibrium limited increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right.
Run the reaction at an evaluated pressure because :
The reaction is gas phase and the concentration and hence the rate is increased as the pressure is increased. This results in a smaller reactor and /or higher reactor conversion.
The reaction is equilibrium limited and there are few products moles than react moles. As increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium to the right.
