What is the weight in pounds of a gallon of oil that has a specific gravity of .86

Engineering

Andreyy893 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Mass of oil will be 7.176 pound

Explanation:

We have given specific gravity of oil  = 0.86

We know that specific gravity is given by specific\ gravity=\frac{density\ of\ oil}{density\ of\ water}

0.86=\frac{density\ of\ oil}{1000}

Density of oil = 860kg/m^3

We have given volume of oil = 1 gallon

We know that 1 gallon = 0.003785 m^3

So mass of oil = volume ×density

mass = 0.003785×860 = 3.2551 kg

We know that 1 kg = 2.2046 pound

So 3.2551 kg = 3.2551×2.2046 = 7.176 pound

Go online and search for information about companies that have been harmed or bankrupted by a disaster. Choose one such company
tester [92]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

In recent times and in the past, so many companies have been dealt with or bankrupted by disaster.

This disasters are in the form of floods, earthquake and tsunami. This has led to many companies across world to have faced problem. As Japan is particularly vulnerable to natural disaster because of its climate and topography let me take example of japan .The tsunami that struck Japan in March this year which has lead to a debt of worth nearly $8 billion due to failed businesses. A total of 341 firms in japan with a combined 6,376 employees has got affected by this disaster.

One of company that hit hard by these disaster is Toyota. Toyota is a Japanese multinational automotive manufacturer headquartered in Toyota, Aichi, Japan. Actually due to flood in thailand toyota has faced a big loss. As flood hit thailand the parts of vehicle which is produced in thailand has stopped . It leads to interruption in the supply chain of some Thailand made components.

This lead to suspension of production as thai made component was unavailable.It has been reported until the situation of thailand will be good toyota plants in Indiana, Kentucky and Ontario, Canada, will be shut down . And production rate at plant in North America will get slow down .This flood leads to a loss of 37500 vehicles .Due to this reason toyota was forced to open its plants in Southeast asian country just to enhance the production rate.Sales of vehicle has also got reduced in thailand . Hence toyota faced a total loss of 1.6 billion dollar.

In Nigeria, due to the insurgency of the Boko Haram, many companies have entirely stopped operations in some regions, this harsh realities leads to massive loss of revenue for such companies.

A closed tank contains ethyl alcohol to a depth of 66 ft. Air at a pressure of 23 psi fills the gap at the top of the tank. Dete
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

639.4psi

Explanation:

Pressure at the closed valve = Air pressure+ (density*gravity*height)

=23psi+(49.27lb/ft^3*32.17ft/s^2*56ft^3)

=23psi+88760.89psft

=23psi+(88760.89/144)psi

=23+616.4

=639.4psi

A steady tensile load of 5.00kN is applied to a square bar, 12mm on a side and having a length of 1.65m. compute the stress in t
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The stress in the bar is 34.72 MPa.

The design factor (DF) for each case is:

A) DF=0.17

B) DF=0.09

C) DF=0.125

D) DF=0.12

E) DF=0.039

F) DF=1.26

G) DF=5.5

Explanation:

The design factor is the relation between design stress and failure stress. In the case of ductile materials like metals, the failure stress considered is the yield stress. In the case of plastics or ceramics, the failure stress considered is the breaking stress (ultimate stress). If the design factor is less than 1, the structure or bar will endure the applied stress. By the opposite side, when the DF is higher than 1, the structure will collapse or the bar will break.

we will calculate the design stress in this case:

\displaystyle \sigma_{dis}=\frac{T_l}{Sup}=\frac{5.00KN}{(12\cdot10^{-3}m)^2}=34.72MPa

The design factor for metals is:

DF=\displaystyle \frac{\sigma_{dis}}{\sigma_{f}}=\frac{\sigma_{dis}}{\sigma_{y}}

The design factor for plastic and ceramics is:

DF=\displaystyle \frac{\sigma_{dis}}{\sigma_{f}}=\frac{\sigma_{dis}}{\sigma_{u}}

We now need to know the yield stress or the ultimate stress for each material. We use the AISI and ASTM charts for steels, materials charts for non-ferrous materials and plastics safety charts for the plastic materials.

For these cases:

A) The yield stress of AISI 120 hot-rolled steel (actually is AISI 1020) is 205 MPa, therefore:

DF=\displaystyle\frac{34.72MPa}{205MPa}=0.17

B) The yield stress of AISI 8650 OQT 1000 steel is 385 MPa, therefore:

DF=\displaystyle\frac{34.72MPa}{385MPa}=0.09

C) The yield stress of ductile iron A536-84 (60-40-18) is 40Kpsi, this is 275.8 MPa, therefore:

DF=\displaystyle\frac{34.72MPa}{275.8MPa}=0.125

D) The yield stress of aluminum allot 6061-T6 is 290 MPa, therefore:

DF=\displaystyle\frac{34.72MPa}{290MPa}=0.12

E) The yield stress of titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V annealed (certified by manufacturers) is 880 MPa, therefore:

DF=\displaystyle\frac{34.72MPa}{880MPa}=0.039

F) The ultimate stress of rigid PVC plastic (certified by PVC Pipe Association) is 4Kpsi or 27.58 MPa, therefore:

DF=\displaystyle\frac{34.72MPa}{27.58 MPa}=1.26

In this case, the bar will break.

F) You have to consider that phenolic plastics are used as matrix in composite materials and seldom are used alone with no reinforcement. In this question is not explained if this material is reinforced or not, therefore I will use the ultimate stress of most pure phenolic plastics, in this case, 6.31 MPa:

DF=\displaystyle\frac{34.72MPa}{6.31 MPa}=5.5

This material will break.

Within a cubic unit cell, sketch the directions of [012], [721], [110].
exis [7]

Answer:

[012]  :

Here x component is zero. That is why this is  in y- z plane

[721] :      

This is  in  all three plane .It means it is in space.

[110]  :

Here z component is zero.

That is why this is  in x -y plane

From the cubic unit directions we can easily understand all given directions  [012], [721], [110].
