Answer:

8 to 10 times

Explanation:

For dry road

u= 15 mph ( 1 mph = 0.44 m/s)

u= 6.7 m/s

Let take coefficient of friction( μ) of dry road is 0.7

So the de acceleration a = μ g

a= 0.7 x 10 m/s ² ( g=10 m/s ²)

a= 7 m/s ²

We know that

v= u - a t

Final speed ,v=0

0 = 6.7 - 7 x t

t= 0.95 s

For snow road

μ = 0.4

de acceleration a = μ g

a = 0.4 x 10 = 4 m/s ²

u= 30 mph= 13.41 m/s

v= u - a t

Final speed ,v=0

0 = 30 - 4 x t'

t'=7.5 s

t'=7.8 t

We can say that it will take 8 to 10 times more time as compare to dry road for stopping the vehicle.

I would say 2-3 times but I’m not quite sure

A 5-mm-thick stainless steel strip (k = 21 W/m•K, rho = 8000 kg/m3, and cp = 570 J/kg•K) is being heat treated as it moves throu

Drupady [299]

Answer:

The temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace is 819.15 °C

Explanation:

The characteristic length of the strip is given by;

$L_c = \frac{V}{A} = \frac{LA}{2A} = \frac{5*10^{-3}}{2} = 0.0025 \ m$

The Biot number is given as;

$B_i = \frac{h L_c}{k}\\\\B_i = \frac{80*0.0025}{21} \\\\B_i = 0.00952$

$B_i$ < 0.1, thus apply lumped system approximation to determine the constant time for the process;

$\tau = \frac{\rho C_p V}{hA_s} = \frac{\rho C_p L_c}{h}\\\\\tau = \frac{8000* 570* 0.0025}{80}\\\\\tau = 142.5 s$

The time for the heating process is given as;

$t = \frac{d}{V} \\\\t = \frac{3 \ m}{0.01 \ m/s} = 300 s$

Apply the lumped system approximation relation to determine the temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace;

$T(t) = T_{ \infty} + (T_i -T_{\infty})e^{-t/ \tau}\\\\T(t) = 930 + (20 -930)e^{-300/ 142.5}\\\\T(t) = 930 + (-110.85)\\\\T_{(t)} = 819.15 \ ^0 C$

Therefore, the temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace is 819.15 °C

An air standard cycle with constant specific heats is executed in a closed system with 0.003 kg of air and consists of the follo

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

a) Please see attached copy below

b) 0.39KJ

c) 20.9‰

Explanation:

The three process of an air-standard cycle are described.

Assumptions

1. The air-standard assumptions are applicable.

2. Kinetic and potential energy negligible.

3. Air in an ideal gas with a constant specific heats.

Properties:

The properties of air are gotten from the steam table.

b) T₁=290K ⇒ u₁=206.91 kj/kg, h₁=290.16 kj/kg.

P₂V₂/T₂=P₁V₁/T₁⇒ T₂=P₂T₁/P₁ = 380/95(290K)= 1160K

T₃=T₂(P₃/P₂)⁽k₋1⁾/k =(1160K)(95/380)⁽⁰°⁴/₁.₄⁾ =780.6K

Qin=m(u₂₋u₁)=mCv(T₂-T₁)

=0.003kg×(0.718kj/kg.k)(1160-290)K= 1.87KJ

Qout=m(h₃₋h₁)=mCp(T₃₋T₁)

=0.003KG×(1.005kj/kg.k(780.6-290)K= 1.48KJ

Wnet, out= Qin-Qout = (1.87-1.48)KJ =0.39KJ

c)ηth= Wnet/W₍in₎ =0.39KJ/1.87KJ = 20.9‰

Ultimate tensile strength is: (a) The stress at 0.2% strain (b) The stress at the onset of plastic deformation (c) The stress at

MissTica

Answer:

By definition the ultimate tensile strength is the maximum stress in the stress-strain deformation. The stress at 0.2% strain, the stress at the onset of plastic deformation, the stress at the end of the elastic deformation and the stress at the fracture correspond, by definition, to other points of the stress-strain curve.
