Suppose an assembly requires five components from five different vendors. To guarantee starting the assembly on time with 90 per

cent confidence, what must the service level be for each of the five components? (Assume the same service level for each component).

Answer:

The service level for each component must be 97.91%

Explanation:

If we want a 90% confidence of starting on time, that means we need

P_{\mbox{starting on time}}=P_{\mbox{every component being ready on time}}=0.9\\

As the probability of each component being ready is independent from the others, that means that the probability of the 5 components being ready is equal to multiply each probability:

0.9=P_{\mbox{component 1 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 2 ready on time} } *\\ P_{\mbox{component 3 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 4 ready on time} } *\\P_{\mbox{component 5 ready on time} }

The probability of being ready on time is equal to the service level (in fraction), and all 5 are equal so we can say:

0.9=(\mbox{service level(in fraction)})^5\\\\\sqrt[5]{0.9} =\mbox{service level(in fraction)}=0.9791\\\mbox{In percentage}: \mbox{service level (in fraction)}*100 = 97.91\%

The engine of a 2000kg car has a power rating of 75kW. How long would it take (seconds) to accelerate from rest to 100 km/hr at
Delvig [45]

Answer: 10.29 sec.

Explanation:

Neglecting drag and friction, and at road level , the energy developed during the time the car is accelerating, is equal to the change in kinetic energy.

If the car starts from rest, this means the following:

ΔK = 1/2 m*vf ²

As Power (by definition) is equal to Energy/Time= 75000 W= 75000 N.m/seg, in order to get time in seconds, we need to convert 100 km/h to m/sec first:

100 (Km/h)*( 1000m /1 Km)*(3600 sec/1 h)= 27,78 m/sec

Now, we calculate the change in energy:

ΔK= 1/2*2000 Kg. (27,78)² m²/sec²= 771,728 J

<h2>If P= ΔK/Δt, </h2><h2>Δt= ΔK/P= 771,728 J / 75,000 J/sec= 10.29 sec.</h2>

An air conditioner removes heat steadily from a house at a rate of 750 kJ/min while drawing electric power at a rate of 6 kW. De
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

a. 2.08, b. 1110 kJ/min

Explanation:

The power consumption and the cooling rate of an air conditioner are given. The COP or Coefficient of Performance and the rate of heat rejection are to be determined. <u>Assume that the air conditioner operates steadily.</u>

a. The coefficient of performance of the air conditioner (refrigerator) is determined from its definition, which is

COP(r) = Q(L)/W(net in), where Q(L) is the rate of heat removed and W(net in) is the work done to remove said heat

COP(r) = (750 kJ/min/6 kW) x (1 kW/60kJ/min) = 2.08

The COP of this air conditioner is 2.08.

b. The rate of heat discharged to the outside air is determined from the energy balance.

Q(H) = Q(L) + W(net in)

Q(H) = 750 kJ/min + 6 x 60 kJ/min = 1110 kJ/min

The rate of heat transfer to the outside air is 1110 kJ for every minute.
