A mechanical system comprises three subsystems in series with reliabilities of 98, 96, and 94 percent. What is the overall relia

Westkost [7]3 years ago

Answer:

<h2> The overall reliability of the system is 88%</h2>

Explanation:

When solving for the reliability of a complex machine, that is a machine that has more than one component, the reliability of the machine is the products of all individual components.

Given the

reliabilities of 98%,

96%, and

94%

Converting to decimals we have

98/100= 0.98

96/100= 0.96

94/100= 0.94

The product of all reliability is

0.98* 0.96 0.94= 0.88

now converting back to percent we have

0.88*100= 88%

A three-point bending test was performed on an aluminum oxide specimen having a circular cross section of radius 5.6 mm; the spe
ankoles [38]

Answer:

F =  8849 N

Explanation:

Given:

Load at a given point = F =  4250 N

Support span = L = 44 mm

Radius = R = 5.6 mm

length thickness of tested material = 12 mm

First compute the flexural strength for circular cross section using the formula below:

σ_{fs} = F_{f} L / \pi  R^{3}

σ = FL / π R³

Putting the given values in the above formula:

σ = 4250 ( 44 x 10⁻³ ) / π  ( 5.6 x 10⁻³ ) ³

  = 4250 ( 44 x 10⁻³ )  / 3.141593 ( 5.6 x 10⁻³ ) ³

  = 4250 (44 x 1 /1000 )) / 3.141593 ( 5.6 x 10⁻³ ) ³

  = 4250 ( 11 / 250  ) / 3.141593 ( 5.6 x 10⁻³ ) ³

  = 187 / 3.141593 ( 5.6 x 1 / 1000 ) ³

  = 187 / 3.141593 (0.0056)³

  = 338943767.745358

  = 338.943768 x 10⁶

σ = 338 x 10⁶ N/m²

Now we compute the load i.e. F from the following formula:

F_{f} = 2 σ_{fs} d³/3 L

F = 2σd³/3L

  = 2(338 x 10⁶)(12 x 10⁻³)³ / 3(44 x 10⁻³)

  = 2 ( 338 x 1000000 ) ( 12 x 10⁻³)³ / 3 ( 44 x 10⁻³)

  = 2 ( 338000000 ) ( 12 x 10⁻³)³ / 3 ( 44 x 10⁻³)

  = 676000000 ( 12 x 10⁻³)³ / 3 ( 44 x 10⁻³)

  = 676000000 ( 12  x  1/1000  )³ / 3 ( 44 x 10⁻³)

  = 676000000 (  3  / 250  )³ / 3 ( 44 x 10⁻³)

  = 676000000 (  27  / 15625000 )  / 3 ( 44 x 10⁻³)

  = 146016  / 125 / 3 ( 44 x 1 / 1000  )

  = ( 146016  / 125 ) /  (3 ( 11 /  250 ))

  =  97344  / 11

F =  8849 N

In a home, air infiltrates from the outside through cracks around doors and windows. Consider a residence where the total length
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Time period  = 41654.08 s

Explanation:

Given data:

Internal volume is 210 m^3

Rate of air infiltration  9.4 \times 10^{-5} kg/s

length of cracks 62 m

air density = 1.186 kg/m^3

Total rate of air infiltration = 9.4\times 10^{-5} \times 62 = 582.8\times 10{-5} kg/s

total volume of air  infiltration= \frac{582.8\times 10{-5}}{1.156} = 5.04\times 10^{-3} m^3/s

Time period = \frac{210}{5.04\times 10^{-3}} = 41654.08 s

An insulated, vertical piston-cylinder device initially contains 10kg of water, 6kg of which is in the vapor phase. The mass of
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

a)120C

b)29kg

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this exercise follow the steps below

1. we will call 1 the initial state, 2 the steam that enters and 3 the final state

2. We find the quality of the initial state, dividing the mass of steam by the total mass.

q1=\frac{6kg}{10kg} =0.6

3 Find the internal energy in the three states using thermodynamic tables

note:Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)  

through prior knowledge of two other properties such as pressure and temperature.  

u1=IntEnergy(Water;x=0,6(quality);P=200kPa) =1719KJ/kg

u2=IntEnergy(Water;t=350;P=5000kPa) =2808KJ/kg

u3=IntEnergy(Water;x=1;P=200kPa) =2529KJ/kg

4. use the internal energy and pressure to find the temperature in state 3, using thermodynamic tables

T3=Temperature(Water;P=200kPa;u=u3=2529KJ/kg)=120C

5. Use the first law of thermodynamics in the system, it states that the initial energy in a system must be equal to the final

m1u1+m2u2=(m1+m2)u3

where

m1=inital mass=10kg

m2=the mass of the steam that has entered.

solve for m2

(m1)(u1-u3)=(m2)(u3)-(m2)(u2)

m2=m1\frac{u1-u3}{u3-u2} =10\frac{1719-2529}{2529-2808} =29kg
