Which of the following has special properties that allow forces and pressure to be distributed evenly?

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Fluids

Explanation:

Fluids has special properties that allow forces and pressure to be distributed evenly within them.

Fluids are gases and liquids whose intermolecular forces of attraction are generally weak or non-existence.
Therefore, when pressure is applied to them, it permeates evenly on all parts.
Their ability to tend to randomness makes liquids and gases very viable for distributing pressure.

Design a half-wave recti er which provides a peak voltage of 15 V, and anaverage voltage of 3.8 V when driven by a 120 V (rms) a

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

You need a 120V to 24V commercial transformer (transformer 1:5), a 100 ohms resistance, a 1.5 K ohms resistance and a diode with a minimum forward current of 20 mA (could be 1N4148)

Step by step design:

Because you have a 120V AC voltage supply you need an efficient way to reduce that voltage as much as possible before passing to the rectifier, for that I recommend a standard 120V to 24V transformer. 120 Vrms = 85 V and 24 Vrms = 17V = Vin
Because 17V is not 15V you still need a voltage divider to step down that voltage, for that we use R1 = 100Ω and R2 = 1.3KΩ. You need to remember that more than 1 V is going to be in the diode, so for our calculation we need to consider it. Vf = (V*R2)/(R1+R2), V = Vin - 1 = 17-1 = 16V and Vf = 15, Choosing a fix resistance R1 = 100Ω and solving the equation we find R2 = 1.5KΩ
Finally to select the diode you need to calculate two times the maximum current and that would be the forward current (If) of your diode. Imax = Vf/R2 = 10mA and If = 2*Imax = 20mA

Our circuit meet the average voltage (Va) specification:

Va = (15)/(pi) = 4.77V considering the diode voltage or 3.77V without considering it

What type of foundation do engineers use for a small and light building and when the load of the building is borne by columns? A

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Explanation:

Individual footings are the commonest, and they are often used if the load of the building is borne by columns. Typically, every column will have an own footing. The footing is usually only a rectangular or square pad of concrete on which the column is erected

Two different fuels are being considered for a 2.5 MW (net output) heat engine which can operate between the highest temperature

sveta [45]

Answer:

If the heat engine operates for one hour:

a) the fuel cost at Carnot efficiency for fuel 1 is $409.09 while fuel 2 is $421.88.

b) the fuel cost at 40% of Carnot efficiency for fuel 1 is $1022.73 while fuel 2 is $1054.68.

In both cases the total cost of using fuel 1 is minor, therefore it is recommended to use this fuel over fuel 2. The final observation is that fuel 1 is cheaper.

Explanation:

The Carnot efficiency is obtained as:

$\epsilon_{car}=1-\frac{T_c}{T_H}$

Where $T_c$ is the atmospheric temperature and $T_H$ is the maximum burn temperature.

For the case (B), the efficiency we will use is:

$\epsilon_{b}=0.4\epsilon_{car}$

The work done by the engine can be calculated as:

$W=\epsilon Q=\epsilon H_v\cdot m_{fuel}$ where Hv is the heat value.

If the average net power of the engine is work over time, considering a net power of 2.5MW for 1 hour (3600s), we can calculate the mass of fuel used in each case.

$m=\frac{P\cdot t}{\epsilon H_v}$

If we want to calculate the total fuel cost, we only have to multiply the fuel mass with the cost per kilogram.

$TC=m\cdot c$
