Alenkasestr [34]

A <u>centrifugal switch</u> is used commonly in open split-phase motors to disconnect the start winding from the electrical circuit when the motor reaches approximately 75% of its rated speed.

Hope that helps!

Water at a pressure of 3 bars enters a short horizontal convergent channel at 3.5 m/s. The upstream and downstream diameters of

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The pressure reduces to 2.588 bars.

Explanation:

According to Bernoulli's theorem for ideal flow we have

$\frac{P}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V^{2}}{2g}+z=constant$

Since the losses are neglected thus applying this theorm between upper and lower porion we have

$\frac{P_{u}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V-{u}^{2}}{2g}+z_{u}=\frac{P_{L}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V{L}^{2}}{2g}+z_{L}$

Now by continuity equation we have

$A_{u}v_{u}=A_{L}v_{L}\\\\\therefore v_{L}=\frac{A_{u}}{A_{L}}\times v_{u}\\\\v_{L}=\frac{d^{2}_{u}}{d^{2}_{L}}\times v_{u}\\\\\therefore v_{L}=\frac{2500}{900}\times 3.5\\\\\therefore v_{L}=9.72m/s$

Applying the values in the Bernoulli's equation we get

$\frac{P_{L}}{\gamma _{w}}=\frac{300000}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{3.5^{2}}{2g}-\frac{9.72^{2}}{2g}(\because z_{L}=z_{u})\\\\\frac{P_{L}}{\gamma _{w}}=26.38m\\\\\therefore P_{L}=258885.8Pa\\\\\therefore P_{L}=2.588bars$

At an axial load of 22 kN, a 15-mm-thick × 40-mm-wide polyimide polymer bar elongates 4.1 mm while the bar width contracts 0.15

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

The Poisson's Ratio of the bar is 0.247

Explanation:

The Poisson's ratio is got by using the formula

Lateral strain / longitudinal strain

Lateral strain = elongation / original width (since we are given the change in width as a result of compession)

Lateral strain = 0.15mm / 40 mm =0.00375

Please note that strain is a dimensionless quantity, hence it has no unit.

The Longitudinal strain is the ratio of the elongation to the original length in the longitudinal direction.

Longitudinal strain = 4.1 mm / 270 mm = 0.015185

Hence, the Poisson's ratio of the bar is 0.00375/0.015185 = 0.247

The Poisson's Ratio of the bar is 0.247

Please note also that this quantity also does not have a dimension

Steam at 75 kPa and 8 percent quality is contained in a spring-loaded piston–cylinder device, as shown in Figure, with an initia

Rashid [163]

The heat transferred to and the work produced by the steam during this process is 13781.618 kJ/kg

<h3>How to calcultae the heat?</h3>

The Net Change in Enthalpy will be:

= m ( h2 - h1 ) = 11.216 ( 1755.405 - 566.78 ) = 13331.618 kJ/kg

Work Done (Area Under PV curve) = 1/2 x (P1 + P2) x ( V1 - V2)

= 1/2 x ( 75 + 225) x (5 - 2)

W = 450 KJ

From the First Law of Thermodynamics, Q = U + W

So, Heat Transfer = Change in Internal Energy + Work Done

= 13331.618 + 450

Q = 13781.618 kJ/kg

214Bi83 --> 214Po84 + eBismuth-214 undergoes first-order radioactive decay to polonium-214 by the release of a beta particle,

Zolol [24]

Answer:

(C) ln [Bi]

Explanation:

Radioactive materials will usually decay based on their specific half lives. In radioactivity, the plot of the natural logarithm of the original radioactive material against time will give a straight-line curve. This is mostly used to estimate the decay constant that is equivalent to the negative of the slope. Thus, the answer is option C.
