a. Replacing standard incandescent lightbulbs with energy-efficient compact fluorescent lightbulbs can save a lot of energy. Cal

culate the amount of energy saved over 10 h when one 60 W incandescent lightbulb is replaced with an equivalent 18 W compact fluorescent lightbulb. (3 points) b. How long could you run a 300 W plasma television set on the saved energy

Answer:

a) 1512000 Joules

b) 5040 seconds = 84 minutes = 1.4 hours

Explanation:

a) Power saved by replacing bulbs = 60-18 = 42 W = 42 J/s

Time the bulb is used for = 10 hours

Energy saved during this time

42×10×60×60 = 1512000 Joules

Saved energy by replacing standard incandescent lightbulbs with energy-efficient compact fluorescent lightbulbs in 10 hours is 1512000 Joules

b) Power the plasma TV uses = 300 W = J/s

\frac{1512000}{300}=5040\ s

Time a plasma TV can be used for with the saved energy is 5040 seconds = 84 minutes = 1.4 hours.

2.) A fluid moves in a steady manner between two sections in a flow
Talja [164]

Answer:

250\ \text{lbm/min}

625\ \text{ft/min}

Explanation:

A_1 = Area of section 1 = 10\ \text{ft}^2

V_1 = Velocity of water at section 1 = 100 ft/min

v_1 = Specific volume at section 1 = 4\ \text{ft}^3/\text{lbm}

\rho = Density of fluid = 0.2\ \text{lb/ft}^3

A_2 = Area of section 2 = 2\ \text{ft}^2

Mass flow rate is given by

m=\rho A_1V_1=\dfrac{A_1V_1}{v_1}\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{10\times 100}{4}\\\Rightarrow m=250\ \text{lbm/min}

The mass flow rate through the pipe is 250\ \text{lbm/min}

As the mass flowing through the pipe is conserved we know that the mass flow rate at section 2 will be the same as section 1

m=\rho A_2V_2\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{m}{\rho A_2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{250}{0.2\times 2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=625\ \text{ft/min}

The speed at section 2 is 625\ \text{ft/min}.

During Atterberg limit tests in the soil mechanics laboratory, the students obtained the following results from a clayey soil. L
m_a_m_a [10]

<u>the liquid limit</u>

LL=-0.8078x*49.503

LL=-0.8078(25)+49.503

LL=29.308

<u>plasticity index of the soil</u>

PL=217.2%+17.8%/2

PL=17.5

PI=LL-PL

PI=29.308-17.5

PL=11.808

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)

List and briefly describe two modern's materials needs
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Modern and smart materials for making the products are improved by developing new materials and find new uses for the existing. As, modern industrialization society is increased demand and quality of the product.

Two modern's materials are:

Carbon Fiber: As, carbon fiber is a strong material and it is light in weight. Designers used it because it is five times strong as steel and two times as stiff. Carbon fiber is basically made out of very thin strands of carbon.

Fiber Optics: It is a new technology as, it is used as transparent solid to transmitted light signals.
