A piece of aluminum wire is 500 ft long and has a diameter of 0.03 inches. What is the resistance of the piece of wire?​

Engineering

dexar [7]4 years ago

Answer:

8.85 Ω

Explanation:

Resistance of a wire is:

R = ρL/A

where ρ is resistivity of the material,

L is the length of the wire,

and A is the cross sectional area.

For a round wire, A = πr² = ¼πd².

For aluminum, ρ is 2.65×10⁻⁸ Ωm, or 8.69×10⁻⁸ Ωft.

Given L = 500 ft and d = 0.03 in = 0.0025 ft:

R = (8.69×10⁻⁸ Ωft) (500 ft) / (¼π (0.0025 ft)²)

R = 8.85 Ω

What is a shearing stress? Is there a force resulting from two solids in contact to which is it similar?
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Shearing stresses are the stresses generated in any material when a force acts in such a way that it tends to tear off the material.

Generally the above definition is valid at an armature level, in more technical terms shearing stresses are the component of the stresses that act parallel to any plane in a material that is under stress. Shearing stresses are present in a body even if normal forces act on it along the centroidal axis.

Mathematically in a plane AB the shearing stresses are given by

\tau =\frac{Fcos(\theta )}{A}

Yes the shearing force which generates the shearing stresses is similar to frictional force that acts between the 2 surfaces in contact with each other.

What is engine knock? What cause the engine knock problem?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

When the uneven burning of the fuel takes place due to the incorrect air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder, a knocking sound is observed. This is called as the engine knocking.

Explanation:

When the uneven burning of the fuel takes place due to the incorrect air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder, a knocking sound is observed. This is called as the engine knocking.

The engine knock problem can be caused due to the following reason

a) When the octane rating of the fuel used is low.

b) The deposition of the carbon around the cylinder walls takes place.

c) The spark plug used in the vehicle is not correct.

For methyl chloride at 100°C the second and third virial coefficients are: B = −242.5 cm 3 ·mol −1 C = 25,200 cm 6 ·mol −2 Calcu
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

a)W=12.62 kJ/mol

b)W=12.59 kJ/mol

Explanation:

At T = 100 °C the second and third virial coefficients are

B = -242.5 cm^3 mol^-1

C = 25200 cm^6  mo1^-2

Now according isothermal work of one mole methyl gas is

W=-\int\limits^a_b {P} \, dV

a=v_2\\

b=v_1

from virial equation  

\frac{PV}{RT}=z=1+\frac{B}{V}+\frac{C}{V^2}\\   \\P=RT(1+\frac{B}{V} +\frac{C}{V^2})\frac{1}{V}\\

And  

W=-\int\limits^a_b {RT(1+\frac{B}{V} +\frac{C}{V^2}\frac{1}{V}  } \, dV

a=v_2\\

b=v_1

Now calculate V1 and V2 at given condition

\frac{P1V1}{RT} = 1+\frac{B}{v_1} +\frac{C}{v_1^2}

Substitute given values P_1\\ = 1 x 10^5 , T = 373.15 and given values of coefficients we get  

10^5(v_1)/8.314*373.15=1-242.5/v_1+25200/v_1^2

Solve for V1 by iterative or alternative cubic equation solver we get

v_1=30780 cm^3/mol

Similarly solve for state 2 at P2 = 50 bar we get  

v_1=241.33 cm^3/mol

Now  

W=-\int\limits^a_b {RT(1+\frac{B}{V} +\frac{C}{V^2}\frac{1}{V}  } \, dV

a=241.33

b=30780

After performing integration we get work done on the system is  

W=12.62 kJ/mol

(b) for Z = 1 + B' P +C' P^2 = PV/RT by performing differential we get  

         dV=RT(-1/p^2+0+C')dP

Hence work done on the system is  

W=-\int\limits^a_b {P(RT(-1/p^2+0+C')} \, dP

a=v_2\\

b=v_1

by substituting given limit and P = 1 bar , P2 = 50 bar and T = 373 K we get work  

W=12.59 kJ/mol

The work by differ between a and b because the conversion of constant of virial coefficients are valid only for infinite series

PythonA group of statisticians at a local college has asked you to create a set of functionsthat compute the median and mode of
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

  1. def median(l):
  2.    if(len(l) == 0):
  3.       return 0
  4.    else:
  5.        l.sort()
  6.        if(len(l)%2 == 0):
  7.            index = int(len(l)/2)
  8.            mid = (l[index-1] + l[index]) / 2
  9.        else:
  10.            mid = l[len(l)//2]  
  11.        return mid  
  12. def mode(l):
  13.    if(len(l)==0):
  14.        return 0
  15.    mode = max(set(l), key=l.count)
  16.    return mode  
  17. def mean(l):
  18.    if(len(l)==0):
  19.        return 0
  20.    sum = 0
  21.    for x in l:
  22.        sum += x
  23.    mean = sum / len(l)
  24.    return mean
  25. lst = [5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 12, 13, 15, 25, 30, 45, 61]
  26. print(mean(lst))
  27. print(median(lst))
  28. print(mode(lst))

Explanation:

Firstly, we create a median function (Line 1). This function will check if the the length of list is zero and also if it is an even number. If the length is zero (empty list), it return zero (Line 2-3). If it is an even number, it will calculate the median by summing up two middle index values and divide them by two (Line 6-8). Or if the length is an odd, it will simply take the middle index value and return it as output (Line 9-10).

In mode function, after checking the length of list, we use the max function to estimate the maximum count of the item in list (Line 17) and use it as mode.

In mean function,  after checking the length of list,  we create a sum variable and then use a loop to add the item of list to sum (Line 23-25). After the loop, divide sum by the length of list to get the mean (Line 26).

In the main program, we test the three functions using a sample list and we shall get
