Is CO, an air pollutant? How does it differ from other emissions resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels?

Engineering
1 answer:
Drupady [299]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

CO, carbon monoxide is a toxic gas. It casues asphixiation on people and animals by interfering with hemoglobin, not allowing blood to transport oxygen to the cells in the body.

The normal emissions resulting from the combustion  of fussil fuels are CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water). Carbon monoxide is formed by an incomplete combustion of fossil fuels or carbon containing fuels in general, this not only produces toxic gas, but also is an inefficient combustion that wastes energy.

If a heat engine has an efficiency of 30% and its power output is 600 W, what is the rate of heat input from the combustion phas
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The heat input from the combustion phase is 2000 watts.

Explanation:

The energy efficiency of the heat engine (\eta), no unit, is defined by this formula:

\eta = \frac{\dot W}{\dot Q} (1)

Where:

\dot Q - Heat input, in watts.

\dot W - Power output, in watts.

If we know that \dot W = 600\,W and \eta = 0.3, then the heat input from the combustion phase is:

\eta = \frac{\dot W}{\dot Q}

\dot Q = \frac{\dot W}{\eta}

\dot Q = \frac{600\,W}{0.3}

\dot Q = 2000\,W

The heat input from the combustion phase is 2000 watts.

A piece of aluminum wire is 500 ft long and has a diameter of 0.03 inches. What is the resistance of the piece of wire?​
dexar [7]

Answer:

8.85 Ω

Explanation:

Resistance of a wire is:

R = ρL/A

where ρ is resistivity of the material,

L is the length of the wire,

and A is the cross sectional area.

For a round wire, A = πr² = ¼πd².

For aluminum, ρ is 2.65×10⁻⁸ Ωm, or 8.69×10⁻⁸ Ωft.

Given L = 500 ft and d = 0.03 in = 0.0025 ft:

R = (8.69×10⁻⁸ Ωft) (500 ft) / (¼π (0.0025 ft)²)

R = 8.85 Ω

A circular bar will be subjected to an axial force (P) of 2000 lbf. The bar will be made of material that has a strength (S) of
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

n = 2.36

Explanation:

The stress experimented by the circular bar is:

\sigma = \left[\frac{2000\, lbf}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.5\,in)^{2}}\right]\cdot \left(\frac{1\,kpsi}{1000\,psi} \right)

\sigma = 10.186\,kpsi

The safety factor is:

n = \frac{24\,kpsi}{10.186\,kpsi}

n = 2.36
