Answer:
16.2 cents
Explanation:
Given that a homeowner consumes 260 kWh of energy in July when the family is on vacation most of the time.
Where Base monthly charge of $10.00. First 100 kWh per month at 16 cents/kWh. Next 200 kWh per month at 10 cents/kWh. Over 300 kWh per month at 6 cents/kWh.
For the first 100 kWh:
16 cent × 100 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars
Since 1 dollar = 100 cents
For the remaining energy:
260 - 100 = 160 kwh
10 cents × 160 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars
The total cost = 10 + 16 + 16 = 42 dollars
Note that the base monthly of 10 dollars is added.
The cost of 260 kWh of energy consumption in July is 42 dollars
To determine the average cost per kWh for the month of July, divide the total cost by the total energy consumed.
That is, 42 / 260 = 0.1615 dollars
Convert it to cents by multiplying the result by 100.
0.1615 × 100 = 16.15 cents
Approximately 16.2 cents
Answer:
a) 24 kg
b) 32 kg
Explanation:
The gauge pressure is of the gas is equal to the weight of the piston divided by its area:
p = P / A
p = m * g / (π/4 * d^2)
Rearranging
p * (π/4 * d^2) = m * g
m = p * (π/4 * d^2) / g
m = 1200 * (π/4 * 0.5^2) / 9.81 = 24 kg
After the weight is added the gauge pressure is 2.8kPa
The mass of piston plus addded weight is
m2 = 2800 * (π/4 * 0.5^2) / 9.81 = 56 kg
56 - 24 = 32 kg
The mass of the added weight is 32 kg.
Answer:
The power developed in HP is 2702.7hp
Explanation:
Given details.
P1 = 150 lbf/in^2,
T1 = 1400°R
P2 = 14.8 lbf/in^2,
T2 = 700°R
Mass flow rate m1 = m2 = m = 11 lb/s Q = -65000 Btu/h
Using air table to obtain the values for h1 and h2 at T1 and T2
h1 at T1 = 1400°R = 342.9 Btu/h
h2 at T2 = 700°R = 167.6 Btu/h
Using;
Q - W + m(h1) - m(h2) = 0
W = Q - m (h2 -h1)
W = (-65000 Btu/h ) - 11 lb/s (167.6 - 342.9) Btu/h
W = (-65000 Btu/h ) - (-1928.3) Btu/s
W = (-65000 Btu/h ) * {1hr/(60*60)s} - (-1928.3) Btu/s
W = -18.06Btu/s + 1928.3 Btu/s
W = 1910.24Btu/s
Note; Btu/s = 1.4148532hp
W = 2702.7hp
Answer:
Marcus would have to take an exam administered by the national council of examiners for engineering and surveying.
Explanation:
Civil engineers design, construct, and maintain projects regarding infrastructure. A civil engineer also looks after the systems in the public and private sectors like roads, buildings, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.
In order to pursue a career in civil engineering, Marcus aims to work for the city council as a civil engineer. Therefore, he would have to take an exam administered by the national council of examiners for engineering and surveying.
