Answer:
Some of the irreversibilities are listed below:
- Plastic deformation of solids
- Transfer of heat over finite difference of temperature
- When two fluids are mixed together the process is irreversible
- Combustion of a gas
- Current flowing through a finite resistor
- Diffusion and free compression or expansion of gas
- Relative motion of body with force of friction
- Processes involving chemical reactions(spontaneous)
Answer:
Efficient when the marginal benefits of project = marginal costs of project.
Explanation:
Majority Decision Rule:
Majority decision rule is based on the notion of equality. An alternative is selected which has majority of votes. The simple majority decision rule may generate efficient results if the marginal benefits of a project are equal or greater than the marginal costs of the project.
Answer:
18.75in
Explanation:
Modulus of elasticity = Stress/Strain
Since stress = Force/Area
Given
Force = 1000lb
Area = 0.75sqin
Stress = 1000/0.75
Stress = 1333.33lbsqin
Strain
Strain = Stress/Modulus of elasticity
Strain = 1333.33/5,000,000
Strain = 0.0002667
Also
Strain = extension/original length
extension = 0.005in
Original length = extension/strain
Original length = 0.005/0.0002667
Original length = 18.75in
Hence the original length of the rectangular bar is 18.75in
