Which task best fits the role of a planning engineer?

An Otto cycle engine is analyzed using the air standard method. Given the conditions at state 1, compression ratio (r), and pres

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

A) 222.58 kJ / kg

B) 0.8897 M^3/ kg

c) 0.7737 m^3/kg

D) 746.542 k

E) 536.017 kj/kg

efficiency = 58% ( approximately )

Explanation:

Given Data :

Gas constant (R) = 0.287 kJ/ kg.K

T1 = 310 k

P1 ( Kpa ) = 100

r = 11.5 ( compression ratio )

rp = 1.95 ( pressure ratio )

A ) specific internal energy at state 1

= Cv*T1 = 0.718 * 310 = 222.58 kJ / kg

B) Relative specific volume at state 1

= P1*V1 = R*T1 ( ideal gas equation )

V1 = R*T1 / P1 = (0.287* 10^3*310 ) / 100 * 10^3

V1 = 88.97 / 100 = 0.8897 M^3/ kg

C ) relative specific volume at state 2

Applying r ( compression ratio) = V1 / V2

11.5 = 0.8897 / V2

V2 = 0.8897 / 11.5 = 0.7737 m^3/kg

D) The temperature (k) at state 2

since the process is an Isentropic process we will apply the p-v-t relation

$\frac{T1}{T2} = (\frac{V1}{V2}^{n-1} ) = (\frac{P2}{P1} )^{\frac{n-1}{n} }$

hence T2 = $9^{1.4-1} * 310$ = 2.4082 * 310 = 746.542 k

e) specific internal energy at state 2

= Cv*T2 = 0.718 * 746.542 = 536.017 kj/kg

efficiency = output /input = 390.3511 / 667.5448 ≈ 58%

There have been many attempts to manufacture and market plastic bicycles. All have been too flexible and soft. Which design-limi

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The design-limiting property that insufficiently large is the elastic modulus (Young modulus)

Explanation:

Plastic usually have a relatively low elastic modulus, this couses the material to deform too much under stress. In the case of a bicycle, a little weight you put on it or little bumps will cause the bicycle to deform too much.

An engineering firm just lost one of their larger customers. The firm president says that the solution to this problem is to fir

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The engineers disagreed because their jobs were on the line

The ethical factors are:

The reason for the customer dumping the business is yet to be figured out

The need to keep cost to the lowest ebb in order to keep maintain profitability at the expense of employees' welfare

The are several ways of growing customer base which are yet to be exploited.

Explanation:

The engineers disagree because there is no direct connection between the company's loss of the customer and their proposed layoff of the engineers,at least no one strong evidence has been given by the president.

The ethical factors inherent in this case are as follows:

The reason for the customer dumping the business is yet to be figure out

The need to keep cost to the lowest ebb in order to keep maintain profitability.

The are several ways of growing customer base which are yet to be exploited.

There is a need for a fact-finding exercise to establish the main motive behind losing such customer,without which the company can run into more troubles in future,otherwise the company would keep firing its good hands each time a customer dumps it.

Also,the president had resulted into such decision in order to maintain company's margins,where then lies ethics of welfare economics?Welfare economics is about looking beyond margins and looking at issues from a wider perspective of fulfilling the needs of employees in order for them to put in their best performance,at least by granting them job safety.

The company could have also grown business by investing in new technology that sets it apart from competitors instead of just jumping into the conclusions of sacking employees in a business where the company's strength lies in quality of engineers that it has.

According to the amortization table, Demarco and Tanya will pay a total of in interest over the life of their loan.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

(Interest rate/number of payments)*$170000= interest for the first month.

Interest amounts for all the months of repayment plus $170000=Total loan cost

Explanation:

Interest is the amount you pay for taking a loan from a bank on top of the original amount borrowed.

Factors affecting how much interest is paid are; the principal amount, the loan terms, repayment schedule, the repayment amount and the rate of interest.

The interest paid=(rate of interest/number of payments to make)*principal amount borrowed.

You divide the interest with number of payments done in a year where monthly are divided by 12.Multiplying it by loan balance in the first month which is your principal amount gives the interest rate to pay for that month.

You new loan balance will be= Principal -(repayment-interest)

Do this for the period the loan should take.

Add all the interest amount to original borrowed amount to get total cost of the loan after the period of time.
