The mechanical properties of a metal may be improved by incorporating fine particles of its oxide. Given that the moduli of elas

ticity of the metal and oxide are, respectively, 52 GPa and 380 GPa, what is the (a) upper-bound, and (b) lower-bound modulus of elasticity values (in GPa) for a composite that has a composition of 90 vol% of oxide particles.

Answer:

a) 347.2 GPa

b) 233.02 GPa

Explanation:

a) To find the upper bound modulus of elasticity, we use the formula:

$E_c(u) = E_mV_m + E_pV_p$

Where,

Volume fraction= V

E = modulus

Em=52GPa

Ep=380GPa

Vp=90%=0.90

Vm= 100%-90%=10%=0.10

We now have:

$E_c(u) = (52*0.1)+(380*0.90)$

= 5.2+342

= 347.2 GPa

b) For the lower bound modulus of elasticity, we use:

$E_c(l) = \frac{E_mE_p}{E_pV_m+E_m+V_p}$

$=\frac{52*380}{(52*0.90)+(380*0.10)}$

=233.02 GPa

Answer:Counter,

0.799,

1.921

Explanation:

Given data

$T_{h_i}=200^{\circ}C$

$T_{h_o}=120^{\circ}C$

$T_{c_i}=100^{\circ}C$

$T_{c_o}=125^{\circ}C$

Since outlet temperature of cold liquid is greater than hot fluid outlet temperature therefore it is counter flow heat exchanger

Equating Heat exchange

$m_hc_{ph}\left [ T_{h_i}-T_{h_o}\right ]=m_cc_{pc}\left [ T_{c_o}-T_{c_i}\right ]$

$\frac{m_hc_{ph}}{m_cc_{pc}}$ = $\frac{125-100}{200-120}=\frac{25}{80}=C\left ( capacity rate ratio\right )$

we can see that heat capacity of hot fluid is minimum

Also from energy balance

$Q=UA\Delta T_m=\left ( mc_p\right )_{h}\left ( T_{h_i}-T_{h_o}\right )$

$NTU=\frac{UA}{\left ( mc_p\right )_{h}}$ = $\frac{\left ( T_{h_i}-T_{h_o}\right )}{T_m}$

$T_m=\frac{\left ( 200-125\right )-\left ( 120-100\right )}{\ln \frac{75}{20}}$

$T_m=41.63^{\circ}C$

NTU=1.921

$And\ effectiveness \epsilon =\frac{1-exp\left ( -NTU\left ( 1-c\right )\right )}{1-c\left ( -NTU\left ( 1-c\right )\right )}$

$\epsilon =\frac{1-exp\left ( -1.921\left ( 1-0.3125\right )\right )}{1-0.3125exp\left ( -1.921\left ( 1-0.3125\right )\right )}$

$\epsilon =\frac{1-exp\left ( -1.32068\right )}{1-0.3125exp\left ( -1.32068\right )}$

$\epsilon =\frac{1-0.2669}{1-0.0834}$

$\epsilon =0.799$

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

52, 50, 54, 54, 56

Explanation:

The "stem" in this scenario is the tens digit of the number. Each "leaf" is the ones digit of a distinct number with the given tens digit.

5 | 20446 represents the numbers 52, 50, 54, 54, 56

A car accelerates from rest with an acceleration of 5 m/s^2. The acceleration decreases linearly with time to zero in 15 s, afte

Tpy6a [65]

Answer: At time 18.33 seconds it will have moved 500 meters.

Explanation:

Since the acceleration of the car is a linear function of time it can be written as a function of time as

$a(t)=5(1-\frac{t}{15})$

$a=\frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}}\\\\\therefore \frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}}=5(1-\frac{t}{15})$

Integrating both sides we get

$\int \frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}}dt=\int 5(1-\frac{t}{15})dt\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=v=5t-\frac{5t^{2}}{30}+c$

Now since car starts from rest thus at time t = 0 ; v=0 thus c=0

again integrating with respect to time we get

$\int \frac{dx}{dt}dt=\int (5t-\frac{5t^{2}}{30})dt\\\\x(t)=\frac{5t^{2}}{2}-\frac{5t^{3}}{90}+D$

Now let us assume that car starts from origin thus D=0

thus in the first 15 seconds it covers a distance of

$x(15)=2.5\times 15^{2}-\farc{15^{3}}{18}=375m$

Thus the remaining 125 meters will be covered with a constant speed of

$v(15)=5\times 15-\frac{15^{2}}{6}=37.5m/s$

in time equalling $t_{2}=\frac{125}{37.5}=3.33seconds$

Thus the total time it requires equals 15+3.33 seconds

t=18.33 seconds
