Answer:
The radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft
The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m
Explanation:
Given;
power generation potential (PGP) = 1000 kW
Wind speed = 5 mph = 2.2352 m/s
Density of air = 0.0796 lbm/ft³ = 1.275 kg/m³
Radius of the wind turbine r = ?
Wind energy per unit mass of air, e = E/m = 0.5 v² = (0.5)(2.2352)²
Wind energy per unit mass of air = 2.517 J/kg
PGP = mass flow rate * energy per unit mass
PGP = ρ*A*V*e
r = 210.64 m = 691.1 ft
Thus, the radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft
PGP = CVᵃ
For best design of wind turbine Betz limit (c) is taken between (0.35 - 0.45)
Let C = 0.4
PGP = Cvᵃ
take log of both sides
ln(PGP) = a*ln(CV)
a = ln(PGP)/ln(CV)
a = ln(1000)/ln(0.4 *2.2352) = 7.73
The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m
Answer:
The minimum diameter for each cable should be 0.65 inches.
Explanation:
Since, the load is supported by two ropes and the allowable stress in each rope is 1500 psi. Therefore,
(1/2)(Weight/Cross Sectional Area) = Allowable Stress
Here,
Weight = 1000 lb
Cross-sectional area = πr²
where, r = minimum radius for each cable
(1/2)(1000 lb/πr²) = 1500 psi
500 lb/1500π psi = r²
r = √1.061 in²
r = 0.325 in
Now, for diameter:
Diameter = 2(radius) = 2r
Diameter = 2(0.325 in)
<u>Diameter = 0.65 in</u>
Answer:
The correct answer is
option C. current to pneumatic (V/P)
Explanation:
A current to pneumatic controller is basically used to receive an electronic signal from a controller and converts it further into a standard pneumatic output signal which is further used to operate a positioner or control valve. These devices are reliable, robust and accurate.
Though Voltage and current to pressure transducers are collectively called as electro pneumatic tranducers and the only electronic feature to control output pressure in them is the coil.
Answer:
a. 6 seconds
b. 180 feet
Explanation:
Images attached to show working.
a. You have the position of the truck so you integrate twice. Use the formula and plug in the time t = 7 sec. Check out uniform acceleration. The time at which the truck's velocity is zero is when it stops.
b. Determine the initial speed. Plug in the time calculated in the previous step. From this we can observe that the truck comes to a stop before the end of the ramp.
