Answer:

50 MW

Explanation:

We are given;

Current = 1000A

Voltage = 700 KV

Resistance per length = 0.5 Ω/mile

Length = 100 miles

The total resistance would be;

R=0.5 Ω/mile x 100 miles = 50Ω.

Now, the current is the same throughout the wire, but the voltage is only at the beginning of the line, and thus the current for the power equation is;

P = I²R

So;

P=(1000A)² x 50Ω.= 50,000,000W = 50MW

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

T = 5416.67 N

T = -2083.5 N

T = 0

Explanation:

Forward thrust has positive values and reverse thrust has negative values.

part a

Flight speed u = ( 150 km / h ) / 3.6 = 41.67 km / s

The thrust force represents the horizontal or x-component of momentum equation:

T = flow(m_{exhaust})*(u_{exhaust} - u_{flight} )\\T = (50 kg/s ) * (150 - 41.67)\\\\T = 5416.67 N

Answer: The thrust force T = 5416.67 N

part b

Now the exhaust velocity is now vertical due to reverse thrust application, then it has a zero horizontal component, thus thrust equation is:

T = flow(m_{exhaust})*(u_{exhaust} - u_{flight} )\\T = (50 kg/s ) * (0 - 41.67)\\\\T = -2083.5 N

Answer: The thrust force T = -2083.5 N reverse direction

part c

Now the exhaust velocity and flight velocity is zero, then it has a zero horizontal component, thus thrust is also zero as there is no difference in two velocities in x direction.

Answer: T = 0 N

A fluid of specific gravity 0.96 flows steadily in a long, vertical 0.71-in.-diameter pipe with an average velocity of 0.90 ft/s
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

0.00650 Ib s /ft^2

Explanation:

diameter ( D ) = 0.71 inches = 0.0591 ft

velocity = 0.90 ft/s ( V )

fluid specific gravity = 0.96 (62.4 )  ( x )

change in pressure ( P ) = 0 because pressure was constant

viscosity =  (change in p - X sin∅ ) D^{2} / 32 V

              = ( 0 - 0.96( 62.4) sin -90 ) * 0.0591 ^2  / 32 * 0.90

              = - 59.904 sin (-90) * 0.0035 / 28.8

              = 0.1874 / 28.8

  viscosity = 0.00650 Ib s /ft^2

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

  center left-turn lane

Explanation:

A <em>center left turn lane</em> will be marked as described. The arrows, if present, generally indicate that left turns are permitted from the lane with these markings.

__

If the double yellow lines are solid, they are considered to be a "barrier" and are not to be crossed.

The 1000-lb elevator is hoisted by the pulley system and motor M. The motor exerts a constant force of 500 lb on the cable. The
klemol [59]

The power that must be supplied to the motor is 136 hp

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

weight of the elevator, m = 1000 lb

Force on the table, F = 500 lb

Distance, s = 27 ft

Efficiency, ε = 0.65

Power  = ?

According to the equation of motion:

F = ma

3(500) - 1000 = \frac{1000}{32.2} * a

a = 16.1 ft/s²

We know,

v^2 - u^2 = 2a (S - So)\\\\v^2 - (0)^2 = 2 * 16.1 (27-0)\\\\v = 29.48m/s

To calculate the output power:

Pout = F. v

Pout = 3 (500) * 29.48

Pout = 44220 lb.ft/s

As efficiency is given and output power is known, we can calculate the input power.

ε = Pout / Pin

0.65 = 44220 / Pin

Pin = 68030.8 lb.ft/s

Pin = 68030.8 / 500 hp

     = 136 hp

Therefore, the power that must be supplied to the motor is 136 hp
