The Prince Company, Inc has 100 employees. In 2009, the employees worked a total of 350,000 hours annual and reported 145 injuri

es/illnesses. What is the incident rate for 2009? From the problem above if only 79 injuries/illnesses resulted in lost workdays or restricted work activity, what will the lost workday Incident rate be for 2009?
For the problems, if needed, the values of 910,000 for death, 27,000 for loss work day incidents, and 7,000 for no lost work day.

Answer:

For 145 injuries, IR=82.86 // For 79 injuries, IR=45.14

Explanation:

As stablished by OSHA, incident rate (IR) is used as a measurement to compare a company's safety against the national average. It is calculated by multiplying the number of recordable cases by 200.000 and then dividing the result by the number of total labor hours of the company.

For 145 injuries:

IR= (145*200.000)/350.000 = 82.86

For 79 injuries:

IR= (79*200.000)/350.000 = 45.14

Sketch the velocity profile for laminar and turbulent flow.
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The laminar flow is generally given in high viscosity fluids such as honey or oil, it has the characteristic of flowing in an orderly manner, the walls of the tube have a zero speed while in the center it has a maximum speed.

turbulent flow is characterized by fluid velocity vectors presenting themselves in a disorderly manner and in all directions.

I attached the drawings for the velocity profile in laminar and turbulent flow.

The pressure gage on a 2.5-m^3 oxygen tank reads 500 kPa. Determine the amount of oxygen in the tank if the temperature is 28°C
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

19063.6051 g

Explanation:

Pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge Pressure

Atmospheric pressure = 97 kPa

Gauge pressure = 500 kPa

Total pressure = 500 + 97 kPa = 597 kPa

Also, P (kPa) = 1/101.325  P(atm)

Pressure = 5.89193 atm

Volume = 2.5 m³ = 2500 L ( As m³ = 1000 L)

Temperature = 28 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (28.2 + 273.15) K = 301.15 K  

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

5.89193 atm × 2500 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 301.15 K  

⇒n = 595.76 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.9988 g/mol

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 595.76 * 31.9988 g = 19063.6051 g

A steel cylindrical pressure vessel has an inside diameter of 2m and a wall thickness of 2cm. If the steel has a yield stress Y
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The pressure that will cause yielding in the tank in the longitudinal direction is 1.7 Mpa

Explanation:

We are dealing with a thin-walled pressure vessel here.

the formula for calculating the hoops stress of this pressure vessel is \sigma =P d/4t

\sigma Y = longitudinal yield stress = 425  \times 10^{6} Pa

Thickness = 2/1000 =0.002m

Outside diameter = inside siameter + thickness =  2m + 0.002m= 2.002m

Dm = Mean diameter = Outside diameter - thickness = 2.002 - 0.002 = 2m

P= 425 \times 10^{6} \times 4 \times 0.002 /2=1.7 Mpa
