Answer:

Tension in cable BE= 196.2 N

Reactions A and D both are  73.575 N

Explanation:

The free body diagram is as attached sketch. At equilibrium, sum of forces along y axis will be 0 hence

T_{BE}-W=0 hence

T_{BE}=W=20*9.81=196.2 N

Therefore, tension in the cable, T_{BE}=196.2 N

Taking moments about point A, with clockwise moments as positive while anticlockwise moments as negative then

196.2\times 0.125- 196.2\times 0.2+ D_x\times 0.2=0

24.525-39.24+0.2D_x=0

D_x=73.575 N

Similarly,

A_x-D_y=0

A_x=73.575 N

Therefore, both reactions at A and D are 73.575 N

An aquifer has three different formations. Formation A has a thickness of 8.0 m and hydraulic conductivity of 25.0 m/d. Formatio
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The horizontal conductivity is 41.9 m/d.

The vertical conductivity is 37.2 m/d.

Explanation:

Given that,

Thickness of A = 8.0 m

Conductivity = 25.0 m/d

Thickness of B = 2.0 m

Conductivity = 142 m/d

Thickness of C = 34 m

Conductivity = 40 m/d

We need to calculate the horizontal conductivity

Using formula of horizontal conductivity

K_{H}=\dfrac{H_{A}K_{A}+H_{A}K_{A}+H_{A}K_{A}}{H_{A}+H_{B}+H_{C}}

Put the value into the formula

K_{H}=\dfrac{8.0\times25+2,0\times142+34\times40}{8.0+2.0+34}

K_{H}=41.9\ m/d

We need to calculate the vertical conductivity

Using formula of vertical conductivity

K_{V}=\dfrac{H_{A}+H_{B}+H_{C}}{\dfrac{H_{A}}{K_{A}}+\dfrac{H_{B}}{K_{B}}+\dfrac{H_{C}}{K_{C}}}

Put the value into the formula

K_{V}=\dfrac{8.0+2.0+34}{\dfrac{8.0}{25}+\dfrac{2.0}{142}+\dfrac{34}{40}}

K_{V}=37.2\ m/d

Hence, The horizontal conductivity is 41.9 m/d.

The vertical conductivity is 37.2 m/d.

A 500-km, 500-kV, 60-Hz, uncompensated three-phase line has a positivesequence series impedance. z = 5 0.03 1 + j 0.35 V/km and
Anni [7]

Answer:

A) 282.34 - j 12.08 Ω

B) 0.0266 + j 0.621 / unit

C)

A = 0.812 < 1.09° per unit

B =  164.6 < 85.42°Ω  

C =  2.061 * 10^-3 < 90.32° s

D =  0.812 < 1.09° per unit

Explanation:

Given data :

Z ( impedance ) = 0.03 i  + j 0.35 Ω/km

positive sequence shunt admittance ( Y ) = j4.4*10^-6 S/km

A) calculate Zc

Zc = \sqrt{\frac{z}{y} }  =  \sqrt{\frac{0.03 i  + j 0.35}{j4.4*10^-6 } }    

    = \sqrt{79837.128< 4.899^o}   =  282.6 < -2.45°

hence Zc = 282.34 - j 12.08 Ω

B) Calculate  gl

gl = \sqrt{zy} * d  

 d = 500

 z = 0.03 i  + j 0.35

 y = j4.4*10^-6 S/km

gl =  \sqrt{0.03 i  + j 0.35*  j4.4*10^-6}  * 500

   = \sqrt{1.5456*10^{-6} < 175.1^0} * 500

   = 0.622 < 87.55 °

gl = 0.0266 + j 0.621 / unit

C) exact ABCD parameters for this line

A = cos h (gl) . per unit  =  0.812 < 1.09° per unit ( as calculated )

B = Zc sin h (gl) Ω  = 164.6 < 85.42°Ω  ( as calculated )

C = 1/Zc  sin h (gl) s  =  2.061 * 10^-3 < 90.32° s ( as calculated )

D = cos h (gl) . per unit = 0.812 < 1.09° per unit ( as calculated )

where :  cos h (gl)  = \frac{e^{gl} + e^{-gl}  }{2}

             sin h (gl) = \frac{e^{gl}-e^{-gl}  }{2}

For a steel alloy it has been determined that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 h duration will raise the carbon concentration
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

135 hour

Explanation:

It is given that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 hour will raise the carbon concentration by 0.35 wt% at a point of 2 mm from the surface.

We have to find the time necessary to achieve the same concentration at a 6 mm position.

we know that \frac{x_1^2}{Dt}=constant where x is distance and t is time .As the temperature is constant so D will be also constant

So \frac{x_1^2}{t}=constant

then \frac{x_1^2}{t_1}=\frac{x_2^2}{t_2} we have given x_1=2 mm\ ,t_1=15 hour\ ,x_2=6\ mm and we have to find t_2 putting all these value in equation

\frac{2^2}{15}=\frac{6^2}{t_2}

so t_2=135\ hour

How does the clearance volume affect the efficiency of the Otto cycle?
eduard

Answer:

Explanation:

A smaller clearance volume means a higher compression. A higher compression means better thermal efficiency. However a compression ratio too high might be troublesome, as it can cause accidental ignition of the fuel-air mix. This is the reason why Otto cycle engines have lower compressions that Diesel engines. In a Diesel engine the mix ignites by compression instead of a spark.
