How does a catapult incorporate technology?

Engineering
1 answer:
storchak [24]3 years ago

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.”

public class FindMatchValue {

  public static void main (String [] args) {

     Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);

     final int NUM_VALS = 4;

     int[] userValues = new int[NUM_VALS];

     int i;

     int matchValue;

     int numMatches = -99; // Assign numMatches with 0 before your for loop

     matchValue = scnr.nextInt();

     for (i = 0; i < userValues.length; ++i) {

        userValues[i] = scnr.nextInt();

     }

     /* Your solution goes here */

         numMatches = 0;

     for (i = 0; i < userValues.length; ++i) {

        if(userValues[i] == matchValue) {

                       numMatches++;

                }

     }

     System.out.println("matchValue: " + matchValue + ", numMatches: " + numMatches);

  }

A seamless pipe 800mm diameter contains a fluid under a pressure of 2N/mm2. If the permissible tensile stress is 100N/mm2, find
Bad White [126]

Answer:

8 mm

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter, D = 800 mm

Pressure, P = 2 N/mm²

Permissible tensile stress, σ = 100 N/mm²

Now,

for the pipes, we have the relation as:

\sigma=\frac{\textup{PD}}{\textup{2t}}

where, t is the thickness

on substituting the respective values, we get

100=\frac{\textup{2\times800}}{\textup{2t}}

or

t = 8 mm

Hence, the minimum thickness of pipe is 8 mm

Water vapor at 10bar, 360°C enters a turbine operatingat steady state with a volumetric flow rate of 0.8m3/s and expandsadiabati
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

A) W' = 178.568 KW

B) ΔS = 2.6367 KW/k

C) η = 0.3

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature at state 1;T1 = 360 °C

Temperature at state 2;T2 = 160 °C

Pressure at state 1;P1 = 10 bar

Pressure at State 2;P2 = 1 bar

Volumetric flow rate;V' = 0.8 m³/s

A) From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific volume;v1 = 0.287322 m³/kg

Mass flow rate of water vapour at turbine is defined by the formula;

m' = V'/v1

So; m' = 0.8/0.287322

m' = 2.784 kg/s

Now, From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 1 with temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific enthalpy;h1 = 3179.46 KJ/kg

Now, From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with temperature of 160°C and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

Specific enthalpy;h2 = 3115.32 KJ/kg

Now, since stray heat transfer is neglected at turbine, we have;

-W' = m'[(h2 - h1) + ((V2)² - (V1)²)/2 + g(z2 - z1)]

Potential and kinetic energy can be neglected and so we have;

-W' = m'(h2 - h1)

Plugging in relevant values, the work of the turbine is;

W' = -2.784(3115.32 - 3179.46)

W' = 178.568 KW

B) Still From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 1 with temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific entropy: s1 = 7.3357 KJ/Kg.k

Still from table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with temperature of 160°C and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

Specific entropy; s2 = 8.2828 KJ/kg.k

The amount of entropy produced is defined by;

ΔS = m'(s2 - s1)

ΔS = 2.784(8.2828 - 7.3357)

ΔS = 2.6367 KW/k

C) Still from table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with s2 = s2s = 8.2828 KJ/kg.k and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

h2s = 2966.14 KJ/Kg

Energy equation for turbine at ideal process is defined as;

Q' - W' = m'[(h2 - h1) + ((V2)² - (V1)²)/2 + g(z2 - z1)]

Again, Potential and kinetic energy can be neglected and so we have;

-W' = m'(h2s - h1)

W' = -2.784(2966.14 - 3179.46)

W' = 593.88 KW

the isentropic turbine efficiency is defined as;

η = W_actual/W_ideal

η = 178.568/593.88 = 0.3
