Answer:

≈ 18.62 kw

Explanation:

Given data :

Diversity factor among transformer = 1.3

No of transformers load demand factor diversity factor

Transformer 1 10 kw 0.65 1.5

Transformer 2 12 kw 0.6 3.5

Transformer 3 15 kw 0.7 1.5

calculate the maximum load on the feeder

demand factor = max demand / load

Max demand = demand factor * load

max demands:

Transformer 1 = 0.65 * 10 = 6.5

Transformer 2 = 0.6 * 12 = 7.2

Transformer 3 = 0.7 * 15 = 10.5

Diversity factor = ( summation of max demands ) / maximum load on feeder

1.3 = ( 6.5 +7.2 + 10.5 ) / max load on feeder

hence : max load on feeder = 24.2 / 1.3 = 18.62 kw

At a point on the free surface of a stressed body, the normal stresses are 20 ksi (T) on a vertical plane and 30 ksi (C) on a ho

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The principal stresses are σp1 = 27 ksi, σp2 = -37 ksi and the shear stress is zero

Explanation:

The expression for the maximum shear stress is given:

$\tau _{M} =\sqrt{(\frac{\sigma _{x}^{2}-\sigma _{y}^{2} }{2})^{2}+\tau _{xy}^{2} }$

Where

σx = stress in vertical plane = 20 ksi

σy = stress in horizontal plane = -30 ksi

τM = 32 ksi

Replacing:

$32=\sqrt{(\frac{20-(-30)}{2} )^{2} +\tau _{xy}^{2} }$

Solving for τxy:

τxy = ±19.98 ksi

The principal stress is:

$\sigma _{x}+\sigma _{y} =\sigma _{p1}+\sigma _{p2}$

Where

σp1 = 20 ksi

σp2 = -30 ksi

$\sigma _{p1} +\sigma _{p2}=-10 ksi$ (equation 1)

$\tau _{M} =\frac{\sigma _{p1}-\sigma _{p2}}{2} \\\sigma _{p1}-\sigma _{p2}=2\tau _{M}\\\sigma _{p1}-\sigma _{p2}=32*2=64ksi$ equation 2

Solving both equations:

σp1 = 27 ksi

σp2 = -37 ksi

The shear stress on the vertical plane is zero

10% A steel beam W18x76 spans 32 feet and is subjected to a Moment of 334 kips-ft. Find the load w on the beam. Determine the de

Lilit [14]

Answer:

w = 10.437 kips

deflection at 1/4 span 20.83\E ft

at mid span = 1.23\E ft

shear stress 7.3629 psi

Explanation:

area of cross section = 18*76

length of span = 32 ft

moment = 334 kips-ft

we know that

moment = load *eccentricity

334 = w * 32

w = 10.437 kips

deflection at 1/4 span

$\delta = \frac{wa^2b^2}{3EI}$

$= \frac{10.4375*8^2 *24^2}{3E \frac{BD^3}{12}}$

$=\frac{10.437 *8^2*24^2}{3E \frac{18*16^3}{12}}$

= 20.83\E ft

at mid span

$\delta = \frac{wl^3}{48EI}$

$= \frac{10.43 *32^3}{48 *E*\frac{18*16^3}{12}}$

$\delta = 1.23\E ft$

shear stress

$\tau = \frac{w}{A} = \frac{10.43 7*10^3}{18*76} =7.3629 psi$

Determine how much concrete you will need for a slab which is 50 feet by 30 feet wide and 1 foot thick

Levart [38]

Answer:

Amount of concrete need to make slab = 1,500 feet³

Explanation:

Given:

Length of slab = 50 feet

Width of slab = 30 feet

Height of slab = 1 feet

Find:

Amount of concrete need to make slab

Computation;

Amount of concrete need to make slab = Volume of cuboid

Volume of cuboid = (l)(b)(h)

Amount of concrete need to make slab = (50)(30)(1)

Amount of concrete need to make slab = 1,500 feet³

The total solids production rate in an activated sludge aeration tank is 7240 kg/d on a dry mass basis. It is necessary to maint

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day

Explanation:

given data

mass of solid = 7240 kg/day

initial moisture content = 78%

solution

here percentage of solid will be

% of solid = 100 - initial moisture content

% of solid = 100 - 78 = 22 %

so that

mass of sludge produced = $\frac{100}{100 - P} M$ kg per day

put her value

mass of sludge produced = $\frac{100}{100 - 78} 7240$ kg

mass of sludge produced = 32909.09 kg

so

specific gravity of sludge = $\frac{\rho sludge}{\rho water }$

and as we know that

$\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{solid percentage}{S solid} = \frac{water percentage}{S water}$

$\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{22}{2.5} = \frac{78}{1}$

$S sludge$ = 1.152

so that

density of sludge = S sludge × density of water

density of sludge = 1.152 × 1000

density of sludge = 1152 kg/m³

so that

volume of biological sludge = $\frac{mass sludge produce}{\rho sludge}$

volume of biological sludge = $\frac{32909.09}{1152}$

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day
