You are testing a new jet engine in a test cell at sea level conditions. You measure the mass flow through the engine and find i

t is 125 kg/sec of air plus 2.5 kg/sec of fuel. The velocity ahead of the engine may be assumed to be zero (it is a static test). The velocity of the exhaust is 340 meters/second. The load cell in the test stand (which measures engine thrust) reads 60,000 Newtons. Is the load cell reading correctly within 2%? If not, what should the load cell read?

Answer:

43248 newtons.

Explanation:

Force = mass x accelerations and units of force are newtons which are given in the question.

here mass = 125 of air and 2.2 of fuel, total = 125+2.2=127.5kg/s  and the velocity of the exhaust is 340m/s.

force = 340m/s * 127.5kg/s = 43248 newtons technically this is wrong (observe units) but i will expalin how i have taken acceleration as a velocity here and mass/unit time as simply mass.

see force is mass times acceleration or deceleration, here our velocity is not changing therefore it is constant 340m/s but if it were to change and become 0 in one second then there would be -340m/s^2 (note the units ) of deceleration and there would be force associated with it and that force is what i have calculated here. similarly there would be mass in flow rate of mass per second, which is also in that one second of time.

let's calculate error.

error = (actual-calculated)/actual. = (43248-60000)/43248= -38.734% less is ofcourse greater than 2%.

So the load cell is not reading correct to within 2% and it should read 43248newtons.

Answer:

The answer is 43350 newton

Explanation:

As per the question,

Mass=125.

Air =2.5

Velocity=340.

So the formula is,

F=ma.

Total=125+2.5=127.5

Applies the formula now,

F=ma

force = 340×127.5 = 43350

Calculate error now,

Error=((actual-calculated)/actual))

(43350-60000)/43350= -38.40%

Hence greater than 2%.

While having a discussion, Technician A says that you should never install undersized tires on a vehicle. The vehicle will be lo
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Both technician A and technician B are correct.

Explanation: Vehicle manufacturers always specify the size of the tires required for a given vehiclefor optimal efficiency,this will ensure that the speedometer is accurate and the level of the vehicle is good enough to ensure the vehicle works efficiently.

It is also a known fact that an increase in a vehicle's rpm(revolution per minute) will eventually lead to increased fuel consumption which means the fuel economy of the vehicle will be reduced making the vehicle less efficient in its fuel consumption.

A 150-lbm astronaut took his bathroom scale (a spring scale) and a beam scale (compares masses) to the moon where the local grav
kozerog [31]

Answer:

a)Wt =25.68 lbf

b)Wt = 150 lbf

F= 899.59 N

Explanation:

Given that

g = 5.48 ft/s^2.

m= 150 lbm

a)

Weight on the spring scale(Wt) = m g

We know that

1\ lbf=32.17 \ lmb.ft/s^2

Wt = 150 x 5.48/32 lbf

Wt =25.68 lbf

b)

On the beam scale

This is scale which does not affects by gravitational acceleration.So the wight on the beam scale will be 150 lbf.

Wt = 150 lbf

If the plane is moving upward with acceleration 6 g's then the for F

F = m a

We know that

1\ ft/s^2= 0.304\ m/s^2

5.48\ ft/s^2= 1.66\ m/s^2

a=6 g's

a=9.99\ m/s^2

So

F = 90 x 9.99 N

F= 899.59 N

Describe with an example how corroded structures can lead to environment pollution? ​
raketka [301]
According to EonCoat, corrosion is the process of decay on a material caused by a chemical reaction with its environment. Corrosion of metal occurs when an exposed surface comes in contact with a gas or liquid, and the process is accelerated by exposure to warm temperature, acids, and salts.” (1)
Although the word ‘corrosion’ is used to describe the decay of metals, all natural and man-made materials are subject to decay, and the level of pollutants in the air can speed up this process.
