Answer:

Sensor/transducer: bimetallic thermometer

Output: displacement of thermometer tip

Control Tstages: mercury contact switch (open:furnace off; closed:furnace on

Explanation:

for a standard room thermostat : This is the device that sets/determines the temperature of an enclosure.

Sensor/transducer: bimetallic thermometer: Bimetalic thermometer are used for measuring the temperature of the ambient air . bimetallic thermometer actually contains two metals. they undergo linear expansivity as the temperature of the room changes.in other words, they experience contraction and expansion with increase or decrease in temperature.The sensor is basically coupled with a transducer which turns the measured variable(Temperature)  into something else, such as a movement on a dial or an electrical signal

Output: displacement of thermometer tip

Controller: mercury contact switch (open:furnace off; closed:furnace on)

once the contact switch is open the furnace can go off. when the contact switch is closed, the furnace will come up.

A cylindrical rod 100 mm long and having a diameter of 10.0 mm is to be deformed using a tensile load of 27,500 N. It must not e
mash [69]

Answer:

The steel is a candidate.

Explanation:

Given

P = 27,500 N

d₀ = 10.0 mm = 0.01 m

Δd = 7.5×10 ⁻³ mm (maximum value)

This problem asks that we assess the four alloys relative to the two criteria presented. The first  criterion is that the material not experience plastic deformation when the tensile load of 27,500 N is  applied; this means that the stress corresponding to this load not exceed the yield strength of the material.

Upon computing the stress

σ = P/A₀ ⇒ σ = P/(π*d₀²/4) = 27,500 N/(π*(0.01 m)²/4) = 350*10⁶ N/m²

⇒ σ = 350 MPa

Of the alloys listed, the Ti and steel alloys have yield strengths greater than 350 MPa.

Relative to the second criterion, (i.e., that Δd be less than 7.5 × 10 ⁻³  mm), it is necessary to  calculate the change in diameter Δd for these four alloys.

Then we use the equation   υ = - εx / εz = - (Δd/d₀)/(σ/E)

⇒  υ = - (E*Δd)/(σ*d₀)

Now, solving for ∆d from this expression,

∆d = - υ*σ*d₀/E

For the Aluminum alloy

∆d = - (0.33)*(350 MPa)*(10 mm)/(70*10³MPa) = - 0.0165 mm

0.0165 mm > 7.5×10 ⁻³ mm

Hence, the Aluminum alloy is not a candidate.

For the Brass alloy

∆d = - (0.34)*(350 MPa)*(10 mm)/(101*10³MPa) = - 0.0118 mm

0.0118 mm > 7.5×10 ⁻³ mm

Hence, the Brass alloy is not a candidate.

For the Steel alloy

∆d = - (0.3)*(350 MPa)*(10 mm)/(207*10³MPa) = - 0.005 mm

0.005 mm < 7.5×10 ⁻³ mm

Therefore, the steel is a candidate.

For the Titanium alloy

∆d = - (0.34)*(350 MPa)*(10 mm)/(107*10³MPa) = - 0.0111 mm

0.0111 mm > 7.5×10 ⁻³ mm

Hence, the Titanium alloy is not a candidate.

a torque of 24 ft pounds is the result when a force of ______ pounds is applied to a wrench that is 18 inches long.​
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

  16

Explanation:

The product of feet and pounds is the torque. 18 inches is 1.5 feet.

  (1.5 ft)(x lbs) = 24 ft·lbs

  x lbs = (24 ft·lbs)/(1.5 ft) = 16 lbs

The force will be 16 pounds applied to an 18-inch wrench to obtain 24 ft·lbs.

Base course aggregate has a target dry density of 119.7 lb/cu ft in place. It will be laid down and compacted in a rectangular s
natita [175]

Answer:

total weight of aggregate =  5627528 lbs = 2814 tons  

Explanation:

given data

dry density = 119.7 lb/cu ft

area = 2000 ft × 48 ft × 6 in

aggregate = 3.1%

required compaction = 95%

solution

we get  here volume of space to be filled with aggregate that is

volume = 2000 × 48 × 0.5 = 48000 ft³

when here space fill with aggregate of density is

density = 0.95 × 119.7    = 113.72 lb/ft³

and

dry weight of this aggregate will be  is

dry weight = 48000 × 113.72 = 5458320 lbs

and

we consider take percent moisture by weigh so that there weight of moisture in aggregate is express as

weight of moisture = 0.031 × 5458320 = 169208 lbs

and

total weight of aggregate will be

total weight of aggregate = 5458320 + 169208

total weight of aggregate =  5627528 lbs = 2814 tons

A ten-station transfer machine has an ideal cycle time of 30 sec. The frequency of line stops is 0.075 stops per cycle. When a l
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

62.5%

Explanation:

We are given that

A ten-station transfer machine has ideal cycle time=30 sec=\frac{30}{60}=0.5 min

Frequency of line=0.075 stops per cycle

Average time=4 min

We have to determine the line efficiency

T_p=0.5+0.075(4)=0.5+0.3=0.8

Line efficiency=\frac{0.5}{0.8}\times 100=62.5%

Hence, the line efficiency=62.5%

The assembly consists of a brass shell (1) fully bonded to a ceramic core (2). The brass shell [E = 93 GPa, α= 15.1 × 10−6/°C] h
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

ΔT = 62.11°C

Explanation:

Given:

- Brass Shell:

       Inner Diameter d_i = 32 mm

       Outer Diameter d_o = 39 mm

       E_b = 93 GPa

       α_b = 15.1*10^-6 / °C

- Ceramic Core:

       Outer Diameter d_o = 32 mm

       E_c = 310 GPa

       α_c = 3.2*10^-6 / °C

- Unstressed @ T = 8°C

- Total Length of the cylinder L = 160 mm

Find:

Determine the largest temperature increase Δ⁢t that is acceptable for the assembly if the normal stress in the longitudinal direction of the brass shell must not exceed 60 MPa.

Solution:

- Since, α_b > α_c the brass shell is in compression and ceramic core is in tension. The stress in shell is given as б_a:

                              б_b = - 60 MPa

- The force equilibrium can be written as:

                          б_b*A_b + б_c*A_c = 0

Where, б_b is the stress in core

            A_b is the cross sectional area of the shell

            A_c is the cross sectional area of the core

                           б_b*pi*( d_o^2 - d_i^2) / 4  + б_c*pi*( d_i^2) / 4 = 0

                           б_b*( d_o^2 - d_i^2)  + б_c*( d_i^2) = 0

                           б_c = - б_b*( d_o^2 - d_i^2) / ( d_i^2)

Plug in the values:

                           б_c = 60*( 0.039^2 - 0.032^2) / ( 0.032^2)

                           б_c =  29.121 MPa , б_b = - 60 MPa

-  The total strains in both brass shell and ceramic core is given by:

                           ξ_b = α_b*ΔT + б_b / E_b

                           ξ_c = α_c*ΔT + б_c / E_c

- The compatibility relation is:

                           ξ_b = ξ_c

                           α_b*ΔT + б_b / E_b = α_c*ΔT + б_c / E_c

                           ΔT*(α_b - α_c ) = б_c / E_c - б_b / E_b

                           ΔT = [ б_c / E_c - б_b / E_b ] / (α_b - α_c )

Plug in values and solve:

                           ΔT = [ 0.029121 / 310 + 0.06 / 93 ]*10^6 / (15.1 - 3.2 )

                           ΔT = 62.11°C
