Answer:

the value of conductivity in IP is $8.406\dfrac{Btu}{ft.hr.F}$

Explanation:

Given that

Thermal conductivity K=14.54 W/m.K

This above given conductivity is in SI unit.

SI unit IP unit Conversion factor

m ft 0.3048

W Btu/hr 0.293

The unit of conductivity in IP is Btu./ft.hr.F.

Now convert into IP divided by 1.73 factor.

$0.57\dfrac{Btu}{ft.hr.F}=1 \dfrac{W}{m.K}$

$0.57\times 14.54\dfrac{Btu}{ft.hr.F}=14.54 \dfrac{W}{m.K}$

$8.406\dfrac{Btu}{ft.hr.F}=14.54 \dfrac{W}{m.K}$

So the value of conductivity in IP is $8.406\dfrac{Btu}{ft.hr.F}$

There are three options for heating a particular house: a. Gas: $1.33/therm where 1 therm=105,500 kJ b. Electric Resistance: $0.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

Explanation:

Cheapest method of heating must have least cost per kj of energy. So, convert all the energy in the same unit (say kj) and take select the cheapest method to heat the house.

Given:

Three methods are given to heat a particular house are as follows:

Method (a)

Through Gas, this gives energy of amount $1.33/therm.

Method (b)

Through electric resistance, this gives energy of amount $0.12/KWh.

Method (c)

Through oil, this gives energy of amount $2.30/gallon.

Calculation:

Step1

Change therm to kj in method ‘a’ as follows:

$C_{1}=\frac{\$ 1.33}{therm}\times(\frac{1therm}{105500kj})$

$C_{1}=1.2606\times10^{-5}$ $/kj.

Step2

Change kWh to kj in method ‘b’ as follows:

$C_{2}=\frac{\$ 0.12}{kWh}\times(\frac{1 kWh }{3600kj})$

$C_{2}=3.334\times10^{-5}$ $/kj.

Step3

Change kWh to kj in method ‘c’ as follows:

$C_{3}=\frac{\$ 2.30}{gallon}\times(\frac{1 gallon }{138500kj})$

$C_{3}=1.66\times10^{-5}$ $/kj.

Thus, the method ‘a’ has least cost as compare to method b and c.

So, option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

A 200-mm-long strip of metal is stretched in two steps, first to 300 mm and then to 400 mm. Show that the total true strain is t

Neko [114]

Explanation:

For true Strain:

step 1:

E true = Ln(1 + 0.5 ) = 0.40

Step 2:

E true = Ln(1 + 0.33 ) = 0.29

By single step process:

E true = Ln(1 + 1 ) = 0.69

total strain of step process = 0.40 + 0.29 = 0.69 units

SO TRUE STRAIN IS ADDITIVE.
