Answer:

\dot W_{in} = 0.82363 hp

Explanation:

Given data:

T_1 = 55 degree F

t_2 - 25 degree F

COP = 2.45

Production rate = 28 lbm/h

we knwo that cooling load is given

\dot Q_L = \dot m q_L

\dot Q_L = 28 lbm/h \times 16 = 4732 Btu/h

Power is determined as

\dot W_{in} = \frac{\dot Q_L}COP}

\dot W_{in} = \frac{4732}{2.4} = 1931.42 Btu/h

\dot W_{in} =1931.42 Btu \times \frac{1 hp}{2345 Btu/h} = 0.82363 hp

Discuss the organizational system that you believe would be the most effective for the safety officer in a medium-sized (100-200
marin [14]

Answer:

A safety manager is a person who designs and maintains the safety elements at workplace. A balance should be required for production and the job in providing work environment. As a safety officer in a medium sized manufacturing facility the following organizational system can be designed and maintained:

  • Maintaining a workplace as per the guidelines by Occupational safety and health association. The rules and regulation should be such that maintains the manufacturing facilities.  
  • For warning to workers proper labelling, floor mapping, signs, posters should be used.  
  • Procurement and usage of safe tools.  
  • A guideline that describes safety standard and precautionary measures should be available to the workers. They should be aware about all the steps that needs to be taken in crisis.  
  • Ensuring that the workers have enough training safety and health or accident prevention.  
  • Identify and eliminate the hazardous elements from the workplace.  
  • A strict action should be taken against the worker in case of violation of rules and not adhering with guidelines.

A cyclic tensile load ranging from 0 kN to 55 kN force is applied along the length of a 100 mm long bar with a 15 mm x 15 mm squ
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

square cross section. The bar is made of a 7075-T6 aluminum alloy which has a yield strength of 500 MPa, a tensile strength of 575 MPa, and a fracture toughness of 27.5 MPaâm.

Required:

a. What is the nominal maximum tensile stress on the bar?

b. If there were an initial 1.2 mm deep surface crack on the right surface of the bar, what would the critical stress needed to cause instantaneous fast fracture of the bar be?

Calculate the radius of gyration for a bar of rectangular cross section with thickness t and width w for bending in the directio
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

a)R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)

Explanation:

Thickness = t

Width = w

Length od diagonal =sqrt (t² +w²)

Area of raectangle = A= tW

Radius of gyration= r= sqrt( I/A)

a)

Moment of inertia in the direction of thickness I = w t³/12

R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)

Moment of inertia in the direction of width I = t w³/12

R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)

Moment of inertia in the direction of diagonal I= (w t³/12)cos 45=( wt³/12)x 1/sqrt (2)

R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)

Suppose you have two boxes in front of you. One box contains a Thevenin Equivalent (voltage source in series with a resistor) an
fomenos

Answer:

1. Measure the temperature of the boxes and leave them unconnected.

2. Norton reduces his circuit down to a single resistance in parallel with a constant current source. A real-life Norton equivalent circuit would be continuously wasting power (as heat) as the current source dumps energy into the resistor, even when externally unconnected, while a Thevenin equivalent circuit would sit there doing nothing.

3. The Norton equivalent box would get warm and eventually run out of power. The Thevenin equivalent box would stay at ambient temperature.
