Answer:
- Moisture/ water content w = 26%
Explanation:
- Initial mass of saturated soil w1 = mass of soil - weight of container
= 113.27 g - 49.31 g = 63.96 g
- Final mass of soil after oven w2 = mass of soil - weight of container
= 100.06 g - 49.31 g = 50.75
Moisture /water content, w =
=
= 0.26 = 26%
Void ratio = water content X specific gravity of solid
= 0.26 X 2.80 =0.728
Answer:
(a) The magnitude of force is 116.6 lb, as exerted by the rod CD
(b) The reaction at A is (-72.7j-38.1k) lb and at B it is (37.5j) lb.
Explanation:
Step by step working is shown in the images attached herewith.
For this given system, the coordinates are the following:
A(0, 0, 0)
B(26, 0, 0)
And the value of angle alpha is 20.95°
Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
Answer:

, c) 
Explanation:
A turbine is a steady-state devices which transforms fluid energy into mechanical energy and is modelled after the Principle of Mass Conservation and First Law of Thermodynamics, whose expressions are described hereafter:
Mass Balance

Energy Balance

Specific volumes and enthalpies are obtained from property tables for steam:
Inlet (Superheated Steam)


Outlet (Liquid-Vapor Mix)


a) The mass flow rate of the steam is:



b) The exit velocity of steam is:




c) The power output of the steam turbine is:



Answer: ε₁+ε₂+ε₃ = 0
Explanation: Considering the initial and final volume to be constant which gives rise to the relation:-
l₀l₀l₀=l₁l₂l₃

taking natural log on both sides

Considering the logarithmic Laws of division and multiplication :
ln(AB) = ln(A)+ln(B)
ln(A/B) = ln(A)-ln(B)

Use the image attached to see the definition of true strain defined as
ln(l1/1o)= ε₁
which then proves that ε₁+ε₂+ε₃ = 0
Answer:
Explanation:
The VC-T engine (for "variable compression, turbocharged") can adjust its compression ratio between 8:1 and 14:1 on the fly, offering high-compression efficiency under light loads and the low compression needed for turbocharged power under hard acceleration.
