4) How much concrete was required to make the Hoover<br> Dam? Where did this concrete come from?

We can process oil into a lot of useful fuels to run our cars, trucks, and even airplanes. Oil is used for making lots of other

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Products of oil in our everyday life:

(1) Petro-Chemical Feedstock: These are by product of Refining of Oil which it is used extensively to make PET bottles, Paints, Polyester Shirts, Pocket combs e.t.c

(2) Asphalt : Used extensively to make Motor Road, highways

(3) Plastics : we use plastics in our everyday life, this is also a product of Refining of crude oil e.g PVC, Telephone casing, Tapes e.t.c

(4) Lubricating Oil/Grease : This is another product from crude oil Fractional Distillation.

(5) Propane/ Cooking Gas: This is also a product from oil which is used in our everyday life for cooking, grilling etc.

Two wastewater treatment plant workers (one male and one female) are exposed to hydrogen sulfide in confined spaces in the treat

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Go to explaination for the details of the answer.

Explanation:

In order to determine the lifetime (75 years) chronic daily exposure for each individual, we have to first state the terms of our equation:

CDI = Chronic Daily Intake

C= Chemical concentration

CR= Contact Rate

EFD= Exposure Frequency and Distribution

BW= Body Weight

AT = Average Time.

Having names our variables lets create the equations that will be used to derive our answers.

Please kindly check attachment for details of the answer.

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

A gas turbine operates with a regenerator and two stages of reheating and intercooling. Air enters this engine at 14 psia and 60

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm

Explanation:

Given:

- T_1 = 60 F = 520 R

- T_6 = 940 = 1400 R

- Heat ratio for air k = 1.4

- Compression ratio r = 3

- W_net,out = 1000 hp

Find:

mass flow rate of the air

rates of heat addition and rejection

Solution:

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_2, T_4, T_10:

T_2 = T_1 * r^(k-1/k)

T_2 = T_4 = T_10 = 520*3^(.4/1.4) = 711.744 R

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_7, T_5, T_9:

T_7 = T_6 * r^(-k-1/k)

T_7 = T_5 = T_9 = 1400*3^(-.4/1.4) = 1022.84 R

- The mass flow rate is obtained by:

flow(m) = W_net,out / 2*c_p*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

flow(m) = 1000*.7068 / 2*0.24*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

- The heat input is as follows:

Q_in = c_p*(T_6 - T_5)

Q_in = 0.24*(1400 - 1022.84)

Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

- The heat output is as follows:

Q_out = c_p*(T_10 - T_1)

Q_out = 0.24*(711.744 - 520)

Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm
