Answer:

The minimum diameter for each cable should be 0.65 inches.

Explanation:

Since, the load is supported by two ropes and the allowable stress in each rope is 1500 psi. Therefore,

(1/2)(Weight/Cross Sectional Area) = Allowable Stress

Here,

Weight = 1000 lb

Cross-sectional area = πr²

where, r = minimum radius for each cable

(1/2)(1000 lb/πr²) = 1500 psi

500 lb/1500π psi = r²

r = √1.061 in²

r = 0.325 in

Now, for diameter:

Diameter = 2(radius) = 2r

Diameter = 2(0.325 in)

<u>Diameter = 0.65 in</u>

Steam enters an adiabatic condenser (heat exchanger) at a mass flow rate of 5.55 kg/s where it condensed to saturated liquid wat
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The minimum mass flow rate will be "330 kg/s".

Explanation:

Given:

For steam,

m_{s}=5.55 \ kg/s

\Delta h=2491 \ kg/kj

For water,

\Delta T=10^{\circ}C

(Cp)_{w}=4.184 \ kJ/kg^{\circ}C

They add energy efficiency as condenser becomes adiabatic, with total mass flow rate of minimal vapor,

⇒  m_{s}\times (\Delta h)=M_{w}\times(Cp)_{w}\times \Delta T

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒  5.55\times 2491=M_{w}\times 4.184\times 10\\

⇒  13825.05=M_{w}\times 41.84

⇒  M_{w}=330 \ kg/s

If the price of the car is less than or equal to your available cash, display "no". If the price of the car is more than your av
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

function decision(car_price, available_cash) {

   if(car_price <= available_cash) {

   console.log("no");

   }

   else  {

   console.log("yes");

   }

   }

decision(car_price, available_cash); or decision(available_cash, car_price);

Explanation:

using functions in Javascript:

functions; this refers to dividing codes into reusable parts.

e.g function function_name() {

console.log("How are you?");

}

you can call or invoke this function by using its name followed by parenthesis, like this: function_name(). each time the function is called it will   print out "How are you?".

Parameters: these are variables that act as placeholders for the values that are to be input into a function when it is called

Arguments: The actual values that input or passed into a function when it is called.

e.g

function function_name(parameter1, parameter2) {

console.log(parameter1, parameter2);

}

then we call function_name: function_name("please", "leave"):we have passed two arguments, "please"  and "leave". Inside the function parameter1 equals "please" while parameter2 equals "leave".

Hence, from the question given the two parameters "car_price" and "available_cash" respectively, we write the function with name function_name:

function decision(car_price, available_cash) {

   if(car_price <= available_cash) {

   console.log("no");

   }

   else  {

   console.log("yes");

   }

   }

decision(car_price, available_cash); or decision(available_cash, car_price);
