Problem 34.3 The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E

and F. The base plate CD has been welded to the lower flange of the beam, and the end reaction of the beam is known to be 100 kN. The coefficient of static friction is 0.30 between two steel surfaces and 0.60 between steel and concrete. If the horizontal motion of the beam is prevented by the force Q, determine (a) the force P required to raise the beam, (b) the corresponding force Q.

The image is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

A) P = 65.11 KN

B) Q = 30 KN

Explanation:

We are given;

The end reaction of the beam; F = 100KN

Coefficient of static friction between two steel surfaces;μ_ss = 0.3

Coefficient of static friction between steel and concrete;μ_sc = 0.6

So, F1 = μ_ss•F =0.3 x 100 = 30 KN

F2 = μ_ss•N_EF = 0.3N_EF

From the screen shot, we see that the angle is 12°

Sum of forces in the Y-direction gives;

F2•sin12 - N_EF•cos12 + 100 = 0

Rearranging gives;

N_EF•cos12 - F2•sin12 = 100

Let's put 0.3N_EF for F2 to give;

N_EF•cos12 - 0.3N_EF•sin12 = 100

Thus;

N_EF(0.9158) - 0.1247 = 100

N_EF(0.9781) = 100 + 0.1247

N_EF = 100.1247/0.9158

N_EF = 109.33 KN

Thus, F2 = 0.3N_EF = 0.3 x 109.33 = 32.8 KN

Wedge will move if;

P = (F1 + F2cos12 + N_EFsin12)

Thus;

P = 10 + (32.8 x 0.9781) + (109.33 x 0.2079)

P ≥ 65.11 KN

B) For static equilibrium, Q = F1

Thus, Q = 30 KN

Is CO, an air pollutant? How does it differ from other emissions resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

CO, carbon monoxide is a toxic gas. It casues asphixiation on people and animals by interfering with hemoglobin, not allowing blood to transport oxygen to the cells in the body.

The normal emissions resulting from the combustion  of fussil fuels are CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water). Carbon monoxide is formed by an incomplete combustion of fossil fuels or carbon containing fuels in general, this not only produces toxic gas, but also is an inefficient combustion that wastes energy.

A cylindrical 1045 steel bar is subjected to repeated compression-tension stress cycling along its axis. If the load amplitude i
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

13.4 mm

Explanation:

Given data :

Load amplitude ( F )  = 22,000 N

factor of safety ( N )= 2.0

Take ( Fatigue limit stress amplitude for this alloy ) б = 310 MPa

<u>calculate the minimum allowable bar diameter to ensure that fatigue failure will not occur</u>

minimum allowable bar diameter = 13.4 * 10^-3 m ≈ 13.4 mm

In order to protect yourself if you have a dispute with another drivers insurance company you should:
klio [65]

Answer:

  C. Get the names and addresses of witness to the crash

Explanation:

The best approach is to let your insurance company handle the dispute. Since that is not an option here, the best thing you can do is make sure you know who the witnesses are, so your insurance company can call upon them as needed.

A heat pump cycle is used to maintain the interior of a building at 15°C. At steady state, the heat pump receives energy by heat
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

a) Ql=33120000 kJ

b) COP = 5.6

c) COPreversible= 29.3

Explanation:

a) of the attached figure we have:

HP is heat pump, W is the work supplied, Th is the higher temperature, Tl is the low temperature, Ql is heat supplied and Qh is the heat rejected. The worj is:

W=Qh-Ql

Ql=Qh-W

where W=2000 kWh

Qh=120000 kJ/h

Q_{l}=14days(\frac{24 h}{1 day})(\frac{120000 kJ}{1 h})-2000 kWh(\frac{3600 s}{1 h})=33120000 kJ

b) The coefficient of performance is:

COP=\frac{Q_{h} }{W}=\frac{120000 kJ/h*14(\frac{24 h}{1 day}) }{2000 kWh(\frac{3600 s}{1 h}) } = 5.6

c) The coefficient of performance of a reversible heat pump is:

COP_{reversible}=\frac{T_{h} }{T_{h}-T_{l}  }

Th=20+273=293 K

Tl=10+273=283K

Replacing:

COP_{reversible}=\frac{293}{293-283}=29.3
