Answer and Explanation:

The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.

In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.

simple Brayton cycle using air as the working fluid has a pressure ratio of 10. The minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycl
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

a) 764.45K

b) 210.48 kJ/kg

c) 30.14%

Explanation:

pressure ratio = 10

minimum temperature = 295 k

maximum temperature = 1240 k

isentropic efficiency for compressor = 83%

Isentropic efficiency for turbine = 87%

<u>a) Air temperature at turbine exit </u>

we can achieve this by interpolating for enthalpy

h4 = 783.05 kJ/kg ( calculated in the background ) at state 4 using Table A-17  for  Ideal gas properties of air

T4 ( temperature at Turbine exit ) = 760 + ( 780 - 760 ) (\frac{783.05-778.18}{800.13-778.18} ) = 764.45K

<u>b) The net work output </u>

first we determine the actual work input to compressor

Wc = h2 - h1  ( calculated values )

     = 626.57 - 295.17 =  331.4 kJ/kg

next determine the actual work done by Turbine

Wt = h3 - h4  ( calculated values )

     = 1324.93 - 783.05 = 541.88 kJ/kg

finally determine the network output of the cycle

Wnet = Wt - Wc

         = 541.88 - 331.4  = 210.48 kJ/kg

<u>c) determine thermal efficiency </u>

лth = Wnet / qin  ------ ( 1 )

where ; qin = h3 - h2

<em>equation 1 becomes </em>

лth = Wnet / ( h3 - h2 )

      = 210.48 / ( 1324.93 - 626.57 )

      = 0.3014  =  30.14%

Estimate the theoretical fracture strength of a brittle material if it is known that fracture occurs by the propagation of an el
Allisa [31]

Answer:

theoretical fracture strength  = 16919.98 MPa

Explanation:

given data

Length (L) = 0.28 mm = 0.28 × 10⁻³ m

radius of curvature (r) = 0.002 mm = 0.002 × 10⁻³ m

Stress (s₀) = 1430 MPa = 1430 × 10⁶ Pa

solution

we get here theoretical fracture strength s that is express as

theoretical fracture strength  =   s_{0} \times \sqrt{\frac{L}{r} }   .............................1

put here value and we get

theoretical fracture strength  =    1430 \times 10^6\times \sqrt{\frac{0.28\times 10^{-3}}{0.002\times 10^{-3}} }  

theoretical fracture strength  =  16919.98 \times 10^6  

theoretical fracture strength  = 16919.98 MPa
