How does a catapult incorporate technology?

I’m sure the answer is correct and it is below
“ A catapult works because energy can be converted from one type to another and transferred from one object to another. ... This energy is stored in the launching device as potential, or stored, energy. The catapult you are about to make uses elastic potential energy stored in a wooden stick as you bend it.”

Steam at 1400 kPa and 350°C [state 1] enters a turbine through a pipe that is 8 cm in diameter, at a mass flow rate of 0.1 kg⋅s−

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Power output, $P_{out} = 178.56 kW$

Given:

Pressure of steam, P = 1400 kPa

Temperature of steam, $T = 350^{\circ}C$

Diameter of pipe, d = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Mass flow rate, $\dot{m} = 0.1 kg.s^{- 1}$

Diameter of exhaust pipe, $d_{h} = 15 cm = 0.15 m$

Pressure at exhaust, P' = 50 kPa

temperature, T' = $100^{\circ}C$

Solution:

Now, calculation of the velocity of fluid at state 1 inlet:

$\dot{m} = \frac{Av_{i}}{V_{1}}$

$0.1 = \frac{\frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}v_{i}}{0.2004}$

$0.1 = \frac{\frac{\pi 0.08^{2}}{4}v_{i}}{0.2004}$

$v_{i} = 3.986 m/s$

Now, eqn for compressible fluid:

$\rho_{1}v_{i}A_{1} = \rho_{2}v_{e}A_{2}$

Now,

$\frac{A_{1}v_{i}}{V_{1}} = \frac{A_{2}v_{e}}{V_{2}}$

$\frac{\frac{\pi d_{i}^{2}}{4}v_{i}}{V_{1}} = \frac{\frac{\pi d_{e}^{2}}{4}v_{e}}{V_{2}}$

$\frac{\frac{\pi \times 0.08^{2}}{4}\times 3.986}{0.2004} = \frac{\frac{\pi 0.15^{2}}{4}v_{e}}{3.418}$

$v_{e} = 19.33 m/s$

Now, the power output can be calculated from the energy balance eqn:

$P_{out} = -\dot{m}W_{s}$

$P_{out} = -\dot{m}(H_{2} - H_{1}) + \frac{v_{e}^{2} - v_{i}^{2}}{2}$

$P_{out} = - 0.1(3.4181 - 0.2004) + \frac{19.33^{2} - 3.986^{2}}{2} = 178.56 kW$

butalik [34]

Answer:

The kinetic energy correction factor the depends on the shape of the cross section of the pipe and the velocity distribution.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy correction factor take into account that the velocity distribution over the pipe cross section is not uniform. In that case, neither the pressure nor the temperature are involving and as we can notice, the velocity distribution depends only on the shape of the cross section.

Why does the auto industry prefer uniform (national) standards for automobile emissions as opposed to regionally varying standar

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Explanation:

For automobile emission, a uniform standard is preferred, because no unnecessary advantage is given by it to any company that is located in particular states where the regional standards are less severe.

Since pollution has its impact across the states and in the whole of the USA, then there should be uniform standards across all the states. It will also invalidate the impact of regional standards as a factor in the selection of plant locations for the automobile company. It means that a state offering less valid emission standards, will attract more companies to herself and it will be against the other states who care more about the natural environment. It can make more states to opt for the permissive emission standards, that will be more harmful to the USA as a country, than the good. So, a uniform standard is preferred to eliminate it as a factor in plant location decisions.

Yes, uniform standards are beneficial to everyone, because it will bring effective control upon the pollution level because there will be no state where the culprit firm can hide. Besides, it is more effective as efforts done towards environment conservation.
