A hawser is wrapped two full turns around a bollard. By exerting an 80-lb force on the free end of the hawser, a dockworker can

resist a force of 5000 lb on the other end of the hawser. Determine (a) the coefficient of static friction between the hawser and the bollard, (b) the number of times the hawser should be wrapped around the bollard if a 20,000-lb force is to be resisted by the same 80-lb force

Answer:

μ=0.329, 2.671 turns.

Explanation:

(a)   ln(T2/T1)=μβ         β=angle of contact in radians

take T2 as greater tension value and T1 smaller, otherwise the friction would be opposite.

T2=5000 lb and T1=80 lb

we have two full turns which makes total angle of contact=4π  radians

μ=ln(T2/T1)/β=(ln(5000/80))/4π  

μ=0.329

(b) using the same relation as above we will now compute the angle of contact.

take greater tension as T2 and smaller as T1.

T2=20000 lb     T1=80 lb   μ=0.329

β=ln(20000/80)/0.329=16.7825 radians

divide the angle of contact by 2π to obtain number of turns.

16.7825/2π =2.671 turns

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

hello some parts of your question is missing attached below is the missing part ( the required fig and table )

answer : The solar collector surface area = 7133 m^2

Explanation:

Given data :

Rate of energy input to the collectors from solar radiation = 0.3 kW/m^2

percentage of solar power absorbed by refrigerant = 60%

Determine the solar collector surface area

The solar collector surface area = 7133 m^2

attached below is a detailed solution of the problem

The altitude ensures acceptable navigational signal coverage only within 22 NM of a VOR.

<h3>What is altitude?</h3>

Altitude or height exists as distance measurement, usually in the vertical or "up" approach, between a reference datum and a point or object. The exact meaning and reference datum change according to the context.

The MOCA exists in the lower published altitude in effect between fixes on VOR airways, off-airway routes, or route segments that satisfy obstacle support conditions for the whole route segment. This altitude also ensures acceptable navigational signal coverage only within 22 NM of a VOR.

The altitude ensures acceptable navigational signal coverage only within 22 NM of a VOR.

Therefore, the correct answer is 22 NM of a VOR.

In an air compressor the compression takes place at a constant internal energy and 50KJ of heat are rejected to the cooling wate
lozanna [386]

Answer:

work is 50 kj

Explanation:

Given  data

heat (Q) = 50 kj

To find out

work input for the compression stroke per kilogram of air

Solution

we will apply here "first law of thermodynamics" i.e.

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy, subject to the principle of conservation of energy, that heat energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can be transferred from one location to another  location. i.e.

ΔU = Q – W                        ................1

here ΔU is change in internal energy, Q is heat and W is work done

here U = 0 because air compressor the compression takes place at a constant internal energy in question

so that by equation 1

Q = W

and Q = 50

so work will be 50 kj

Why is logging done during drilling?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Logging while drilling (LWD) is a technique of conveying well logging tools into the well borehole downhole as part of the bottom hole assembly (BHA). ... In these situations, the LWD measurement ensures that some measurement of the subsurface is captured in the event that wireline operations are not possible
