My name is Ann [436]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

The answer is "101"

Explanation:

Given value:

We must convert density into pounds per cubic foot to 6900 grams per 4.5 quarter of the length.

$1\ \text{Liquid quart} = 0.03342 \ \text{cubic foot} \\\\1 \ \text{gram} = 0.0022 \ \text{pound}\\$

Formula:

$\bold{density = \frac{6900}{4.5} \frac{gram}{quart}}\\$

$=\frac{6900 \times 0.0022 \ pound }{4.5 \times 0.03342 \cubic \ foot}\\\\= \frac{15.2119}{0.15039} \\\\= 101.1497 \ or \ 101 \ \text{pound per cubic feet}\\$

The solid cylinders AB and BC are bonded together at B and are attached to fixed supports at A and C. The modulus of rigidity is

romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 0.697*10³ lb.in

b) 6.352 ksi

Explanation:

For cylinder AB:

Let Length of AB = 12 in

$c=\frac{1}{2}d=\frac{1}{2} *1.1=0.55in\\ J=\frac{\pi c^4}{2}=\frac{\pi}{2}0.55^4=0.1437\ in^4\\$

$\phi_B=\frac{T_{AB}L}{GJ}=\frac{T_{AB}*12}{3.3*10^6*0.1437} =2.53*10^{-5}T_{AB}$

For cylinder BC:

Let Length of BC = 18 in

$c=\frac{1}{2}d=\frac{1}{2} *2.2=1.1in\\ J=\frac{\pi c^4}{2}=\frac{\pi}{2}1.1^4=2.2998\ in^4\\$

$\phi_B=\frac{T_{BC}L}{GJ}=\frac{T_{BC}*18}{5.9*10^6*2.2998} =1.3266*10^{-6}T_{BC}$

$2.53*10^{-5}T_{AB}=1.3266*10^{-6}T_{BC}\\T_{BC}=19.0717T_{AB}$

$T_{AB}+T_{BC}-T=0\\T_{AB}+T_{BC}=T\\T_{AB}+T_{BC}=14*10^3\ lb.in\\but\ T_{BC}=19.0717T_{AB}\\T_{AB}+19.0717T_{AB}=14*10^3\\20.0717T_{AB}=14*10^3\\T_{AB}=0.697*10^3\ lb.in\\T_{BC}=13.302*10^3\ lb.in$

b) Maximum shear stress in BC

$\tau_{BC}=\frac{T_{BC}}{J}c=13.302*10^3*1.1/2.2998=6.352\ ksi$

Maximum shear stress in AB

$\tau_{AB}=\frac{T_{AB}}{J}c=0.697*10^3*0.55/0.1437=2.667\ ksi$

A piston-cylinder device contains an ideal gas mixture of 3 kmol of He gas and 7 kmol of Ar gas (both gases are monatomic) at 27

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Q = 62 ( since we are instructed not to include the units in the answer)

Explanation:

Given that:

$n_{HCl} = 3 \ kmol\\n_{Ar} = 7 \ k mol$

$T_1 = 27^0 \ C = ( 27+273)K = 300 K$

$P_1 = 200 \ kPa$

Q = ???

Now the gas expands at constant pressure until its volume doubles

i.e if $V_1 = x\\V_2 = 2V_1$

Using Charles Law; since pressure is constant

$V \alpha T$

$\frac{V_2}{V_1} =\frac{T_2}{T_1}$

$\frac{2V_1}{V_1} =\frac{T_2}{300}$

$T_2 = 300*2\\T_2 = 600$

mass of He =number of moles of He × molecular weight of He

mass of He = 3 kg × 4

mass of He = 12 kg

mass of Ar =number of moles of Ar × molecular weight of Ar

mass of He = 7 kg × 40

mass of He = 280 kg

Now; the amount of Heat Q transferred = $m_{He}Cp_{He} \delta T + m_{Ar}Cp_{Ar} \delta T$

From gas table

$Cp_{He} = 5.9 \ kJ/Kg/K\\Cp_{Ar} = 0.5203 \ kJ/Kg/K$

∴ Q = $12*5.19*10^3(600-300)+280*0.5203*10^3(600-300)$

Q = $62.389 *10^6$

Q = 62 MJ

Q = 62 ( since we are instructed not to include the units in the answer)

What would happen to a plane if the weight force becomes greater than the lift force?

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

When the lift is greater than the weight, the aircraft gains altitude. ... Drag must be overcome for the aircraft to move, and movement is essential to obtain lift. To overcome drag and move the aircraft forward, another force is essential. This force is thrust.

A liquid refrigerant (sg=1,2) is flowing at a weight flow rate of 20,9 N/h. Refrigerant flashes into a vapor and its specific we

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

volume of 20.9 N

= 20.9 / 11.5 m³

= 1.8174 m³

In one hour 1.8174 m³ flows

in one second volume flowing = 1.8174 / 60 x 60

= 5 x 10⁻⁴ m³

Rate of volume flow = 5 x 10⁻⁴ m³ / s .

Conduct online research and write a short report on the origin and evolution of the meter as a measurement standard. Discuss how

valina [46]

Answer:

People have come up with all sorts of inventive ways of measuring length. The most intuitive are right at our fingertips. That is, they are based upon the human body: the foot, the hand, the fingers or the length of an arm or a stride.

In ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt, one of the first standard measures of length used was the cubit. In Egypt, the royal cubit, which was used to build the most important structures, was based on the length of the pharaoh’s arm from elbow to the end of the middle finger plus the span of his hand. Because of its great importance, the royal cubit was standardized using rods made from granite. These granite cubits were further subdivided into shorter lengths reminiscent of centimeters and millimeters.

Later length measurements used by the Romans (who had taken them from the Greeks, who had taken them from the Babylonians and Egyptians) and passed on into Europe generally were based on the length of the human foot or walking and multiples and subdivisions of that. For example, the pace—one left step plus one right step—is approximately a meter or yard. (On the other hand, the yard did not derive from a pace but from, among other things, the length of King Henry I of England’s outstretched arm.) Mille passus in Latin, or 1,000 paces, is where the English word “mile” comes from.

And thus, the meter has and likely will remain so elegantly defined in these terms for the foreseeable future.
