Opinion: Choose a side and defend it in four to five sentences. Given the choice between a vehicle that runs on gasoline or one

that runs on electricity such as the Aptera 2e, which would you choose and why? Think about fuel consumption, design of the vehicles, and other factors that may influence your decision.

Answer:

my opinion would be electric

Explanation:

because when it comes down to the bare minimum the best choice for the world in the long run would be electric because it puts a big dent back for global warming and the burning of gasses so the more people who drive electric cars are the people who are trying to save the world a little at a time by preventing the burning of gasses. hope this helps :)

A bridge to be fabricated of steel girders is designed to be 500 m long and 12 m wide at ambient temperature (assumed 20°C). Exp
Volgvan

Answer:

a) 22.5number

b) 22.22 m length

Explanation:

Given data:

Bridge length = 500 m

width of bridge = 12 m

Maximum temperature = 40 degree C

minimum temperature  = - 35 degree C

Maximum expansion can be determined as

\Delta L = L \alpha (T_{max} - T_{min})

where , \alpha is expansion coefficient = 12\times 10^{-6} degree C

SO, \Delta L = 500\times 12\times 10^{-6}\times ( 40 - (-35))

\Delta L = 0.45 m = 450 mm

number of minimum expansion joints is calculated as

n = \frac{450}{20} = 22.5

b) length of each bridge

Length = \frac{500}{22.5} = 22.22 m

Air at 26 kPa, 230 K, and 220 rn/s enters a turbojet engine in flight. The air mass flow rate is 25 kg/s. The compressor pressur
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:  

Explanation:  

This is a little lengthy and tricky, but nevertheless i would give a step by step analysis to make this as simple as possible.  

(a). here we are asked to determine the Temperature and Pressure.  

Given that the properties of Air;  

ha = 230.02 KJ/Kg  

Ta = 230 K  

Pra = 0.5477  

From the energy balance equation for a diffuser;  

ha + Va²/2 = h₁ + V₁²/2  

h₁ = ha + Va²/2 (where V₁²/2 = 0)  

h₁ = 230.02 + 220²/2 ˣ 1/10³  

h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg  

⇒ now we obtain the properties of air at h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg  

from this we have;  

Pr₁ = 0.7329 + (0.8405 - 0.7329)[(254.22 - 250.05) / (260.09 - 250.05)]  

Pr₁ = 0.77759  

therefore T₁ = 254.15K  

P₁ = (Pr₁/Pra)Pa  

= 0.77759/0.5477 ˣ 26  

P₁ = 36.91 kPa  

now we calculate Pr₂  

Pr₂ = Pr₁ (P₂/P₁) = 0.77759 ˣ 11 = 8.55349  

⇒ now we obtain properties of air at  

Pr₂ = 8.55349 and h₂ = 505.387 KJ/Kg  

calculating the enthalpy of air at state 2  

ηc = h₁ - h₂ / h₁ - h₂  

0.85 = 254.22 - 505.387 / 254.22 - h₂  

h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg  

to obtain the properties of air at h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg  

T₂ = 545.15 K

⇒ to calculate the pressure of air at state 2

P₂/P₁ = 11

P₂ = 11 ˣ 36.913  

p₂ = 406.043 kPa

but pressure of air at state 3 is the same,

i.e. P₂ = P₃ = 406.043 kPa

P₃ = 406.043 kPa

To obtain the properties of air at  

T₃ = 1400 K, h₃ = 1515.42 kJ/Kg and Pr = 450.5

for cases of turbojet engine,

we have that work output from turbine = work input to the compressor

Wt = Wr

(h₃ - h₄) = (h₂ - h₁)

h₄ = h₃ - h₂ + h₁  

= 1515.42 - 549.71 + 254.22

h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

properties of air at h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

T₄ = 1140 + (1160 - 1140) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

T₄ = 1150.58 K

Pr₄ = 193.1 + (207.2 - 193.1) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

Pr₄ = 200.5636

Calculating the ideal enthalpy of the air at state 4;

Лr = h₃ - h₄ / h₃ - h₄*

0.9 = 1515.42 - 1219.93 / 1515.42 - h₄  

h₄* = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

now to obtain the properties of air at h₄⁻ = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

P₄* = 179.7 + (193.1 - 179.7) [(1187.09 -1184.28) / (1207.57 - 1184.28)]

P₄* = 181.316

P₄ = (Pr₄/Pr₃)P₃       i.e. 3-4 isentropic process

P₄ = 181.316/450.5 * 406.043

P₄ = 163.42 kPa

For the 4-5 process;

Pr₅ = (P₅/P₄)Pr₄

Pr₅ = 26/163.42 * 200.56 = 31.9095

to obtain the properties of air at Pr₅ = 31.9095

h₅= 724.04 + (734.82 - 724.04) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

h₅ = 734.09 KJ/Kg

T₅ = 710 + (720 - 710) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

T₅ = 719.32 K

(b) Now we are asked to calculate the rate of heat addition to the air passing through the combustor;

QH = m(h₃-h₂)

QH = 25(1515.42 - 549.71)

QH = 24142.75 kW

(c). To calculate the velocity at the nozzle exit;

we apply steady energy equation of a flow to nozzle

h₄ + V₄²/2 = h₅ + V₅²/2

h₄  + 0  = h₅₅ + V₅²/2

1219.9 ˣ 10³ = 734.09 ˣ 10³ + V₅²/2

therefore, V₅ = 985.74 m/s

cheers i hope this helps

A geothermal heat pump absorbs 15 KJ/s of heat from the Earth 15 m below a house. This heat pump uses a 7.45 kJ/s compressor.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

COP of the heat pump is 3.013

OP of the cycle is  1.124

Explanation:

W = Q₂ - Q₁

Given

a)

Q₂ = Q₁ + W

     = 15 + 7.45

     = 22.45 kw

COP = Q₂ / W = 22.45 / 7.45 = 3.013

b)

Q₂ = 15 x 1.055 = 15.825 kw

therefore,

Q₁ = Q₂ - W

Q₁ = 15.825 - 7.45 = 8.375

∴ COP = Q₁ / W = 8.375 / 7.45 = 1.124

List two things that technological systems have in common.​
Sphinxa [80]

They all share the way that they are fundamentally designed: if they are quite complex, they will share the same basic logic foundations, like the way that the programming languages work. They also all share the method of construction and common and fundamental electronic components, like resistors, capacitors and transistors. As we humans design them, they make logical sense to at least someone, and probably only discounting the internet, you can probably draw logic diagrams and whatever to represent how they work.

Because they are designed by Humans, in a way they all mimic how our brains and society work. Also, as yet there are no truly intelligent technological systems, and are only able to react to a situation how they have been programmed to do so.
