Answer:

Stress corrosion cracking

Explanation:

This occurs when susceptible materials subjected to an environment that causes cracking effect by the production of folds and tensile stress. This also depends upon the nature of the corrosive environment.

Factors like high-temperature water, along with Carbonization and chlorination, static stress, and material properties.

Answer:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void PrintPopcornTime(int bagOunces) {

if(bagOunces < 3){

cout << "Too small";

cout << endl;

}

else if(bagOunces > 10){

cout << "Too large";

}

else{

cout << (6 * bagOunces) << " seconds" << endl;

}

int main() {

PrintPopcornTime(7);

return 0;

}

Explanation:

Using C++ to write the program. In line 1 we define the header "#include <iostream>" that defines the standard input/output stream objects. In line 2 "using namespace std" gives me the ability to use classes or functions, From lines 5 to 17 we define the function "PrintPopcornTime(), with int parameter bagOunces" Line 19 we can then call the function using 7 as the argument "PrintPopcornTime(7);" to get the expected output.

A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine has a bore of 3.7 in. and a stroke of 3.4 in. The clearance volume is 16

Bad White [126]

Answer:

the net work per cycle $\mathbf{W_{net} = 0.777593696}$ Btu per cycle

the power developed by the engine, W = 88.0144746 hp

Explanation:

the information given includes;

diameter of the four-cylinder bore = 3.7 in

length of the stroke = 3.4 in

The clearance volume = 16% = 0.16

The cylindrical volume $V_2 = 0.16 V_1$

the crankshaft N rotates at a speed of 2400 RPM.

At the beginning of the compression , temperature $T_1$ = 60 F = 519.67 R

and;

Otto cycle with a pressure = 14.5 lbf/in² = (14.5 × 144 ) lb/ft²

= 2088 lb/ft²

The maximum temperature in the cycle is 5200 R

From the given information; the change in volume is:

$V_1-V_2 = \dfrac{\pi}{4}D^2L$

$V_1-0.16V_1= \dfrac{\pi}{4}(3.7)^2(3.4)$

$V_1-0.16V_1= 36.55714291$

$0.84 V_1 =36.55714291$

$V_1 =\dfrac{36.55714291}{0.84 }$

$V_1 =43.52040823 \ in^3 \\ \\ V_1 = 43.52 \ in^3$

$V_1 = 0.02518 \ ft^3$

the mass in air ( lb) can be determined by using the formula:

$m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT}$

where;

R = 53.3533 ft.lbf/lb.R°

$m = \dfrac{2088 \ lb/ft^2 \times 0.02518 \ ft^3}{53.3533 \ ft .lbf/lb.^0R \times 519 .67 ^0 R}$

m = 0.0018962 lb

From the tables of ideal gas properties at Temperature 519.67 R

$v_{r1} =158.58$

$u_1 = 88.62 Btu/lb$

At state of volume 2; the relative volume can be determined as:

$v_{r2} = v_{r1} \times \dfrac{V_2}{V_1}$

$v_{r2} = 158.58 \times 0.16$

$v_{r2} = 25.3728$

The specific energy $u_2$ at $v_{r2} = 25.3728$ is 184.7 Btu/lb

From the tables of ideal gas properties at maximum Temperature T = 5200 R

$v_{r3} = 0.1828$

$u_3 = 1098 \ Btu/lb$

To determine the relative volume at state 4; we have:

$v_{r4} = v_{r3} \times \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}$

$v_{r4} =0.1828 \times \dfrac{1}{0.16}$

$v_{r4} =1.1425$

The specific energy $u_4$ at $v_{r4} =1.1425$ is 591.84 Btu/lb

Now; the net work per cycle can now be calculated as by using the following formula:

$W_{net} = Heat \ supplied - Heat \ rejected$

$W_{net} = m(u_3-u_2)-m(u_4 - u_1)$

$W_{net} = m(u_3-u_2- u_4 + u_1)$

$W_{net} = m(1098-184.7- 591.84 + 88.62)$

$W_{net} = 0.0018962 \times (1098-184.7- 591.84 + 88.62)$

$W_{net} = 0.0018962 \times (410.08)$

$\mathbf{W_{net} = 0.777593696}$ Btu per cycle

the power developed by the engine, in horsepower. can be calculated as follows;

In the four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine; the power developed by the engine can be calculated by using the expression:

$W = 4 \times N' \times W_{net$

where ;

$N' = \dfrac{2400}{2}$

N' = 1200 cycles/min

N' = 1200 cycles/60 seconds

N' = 20 cycles/sec

W = 4 × 20 cycles/sec × 0.777593696

W = 62.20749568 Btu/s

W = 88.0144746 hp

There are two identical oil tanks. The level of oil in Tank A is 12 ft and is drained at the rate of 0.5 ft/min. Tank B contains

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

16 minutes

Explanation:

This is an example of a class of problems in which two quantities start with different initial values and change at different rates. In such problems, the rates of change are generally ones that cause the values to converge.

The question usually asks when the values will be the same. The generic answer is, "when the difference in rates makes up the difference in initial values."

Here the tanks differ in initial fill height by 12 -8 = 4 ft. The rates of change differ by 0.5 -0.25 = 0.25 ft/min. The more filled tank is draining faster (important), so the fill heights will converge after ...

(4 ft)/(0.25 ft/min) = 16 min

The level in the two tanks will be the same after 16 minutes.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The oil levels at that time will be 4 ft.

You can write two equations for height:

y = 12 -0.5x . . . . . . . height in feet after x minutes (tank A)

y = 8 -0.25x . . . . . . height in feet after x minutes (tank B)

These will be equal when ...

y = y

12 -0.5x = 8 -0.25x

4 = 0.25x . . . . . . . . . . add 0.5x -8

16 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4 . . . . time to equal height

The graph shows when the tanks will have equal heights and when they will be drained.

How much cornfield area would be required if you were to replace all the oil consumed in the United States with ethanol from cor

zaharov [31]

Answer:

2377.35 km

Explanation:

Given the following;

1. A cornfield is 1.5% efficient at converting radiant energy into stored chemical potential energy;

2. The conversion from corn to ethanol is 17% efficient;

3. A 1.2:1 ratio for farm equipment to energy production

4. A 50% growing season and,

5. 200 W/m2 solar insolation.

As per our assumptions,1.2/1 is the ratio for farm equipment to energy production,

So USA need around 45.45% (1/(1+1.2) replacement of fuel energy production which is nearly about = 0.4545*10^{20} J/year = \frac{0.4545*10^{20}}{365*24*3600}=1.44121*10^{12} J/sec

Growing season is only part of year ( Given = 50%),

Net efficiency = 1.5%*17%*50%=0.015*0.17*0.5=0.001275 = 0.1275%

Hence , Actual Energy replacement (Efficiency),

=\frac{1.44121*10^{12}}{0.001275} = 1.13*10^{15} J/sec=1.13*10^{15} W

As per assumption (5),

\because 200 W/m2 solar insolation arequired,

So USA required corn field area = 1.13*10^{15}/200 = 5.65*10^{12} m^{2}

Hence, length of each side of a square,

= (5.65*10^{12} )^{0.5} = 2377.35 km
