A cylinder with a frictionless piston contains 0.05 m3 of air at 60kPa. The linear spring holding the piston is in tension. The

system is heated until the volume is 0.2 m3 and the pressure is 180 kPa. What is the work done by the air? External pressure is 100 kPa.

Answer:

18 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

Initial volume of air = 0.05 m³

Initial pressure = 60 kPa

Final volume = 0.2 m³

Final pressure = 180 kPa

Now,

the Work done by air will be calculated as:

Work Done = Average pressure × Change in volume

thus,

Average pressure = \frac{60+180}{2}  = 120 kPa

and,

Change in volume = Final volume - Initial Volume = 0.2 - 0.05 = 0.15 m³

Therefore,

the work done = 120 × 0.15 = 18 kJ

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

a) 70.29 %

b) 37%

Explanation:

percent reduction can be found from:

PR = 100*(π(do/2)^2-π(df/2)^2)/π(do/2)^2

     = 100*(π(11.34/2)^2-π(6.21/2)^2)/π(11.34/2)^2

     =70.29 %

percent elongation can be found from:

EL =L_f - Lo/Lo*100

    = (73.17 -53.3/53.3)*100

    = 37%

Question # 5
spayn [35]

The statement which best characterizes the relationship between a general contractor and a construction manager is that; A construction manager subcontracts a general contractor to perform <em>work</em>.

A construction project manager is saddled with the responsibility of overseeing the planning and delivery of construction projects.

  • In essence, they ensure that work is completed on time and within budget. Other functions include organising logistics, delegation of work and tracking of spending.

A general contractor otherwise known as the prime contractor is responsible for the day-to-day oversight of a construction site,<em> employment of labour, management of vendors and trades, and most importantly, the communication of information to all involved parties throughout the course of a building project.</em>

  • <em>Ultimately</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>relationship</em><em> </em><em>between</em><em> </em><em>a </em><em>general contractor and a construction manager is that; A construction manager subcontracts a general contractor to perform work.</em>

A light bar AD is suspended from a cable BE and supports a 20-kg block at C. The ends A and D of the bar are in contact with fri
babymother [125]

Answer:

Tension in cable BE= 196.2 N

Reactions A and D both are  73.575 N

Explanation:

The free body diagram is as attached sketch. At equilibrium, sum of forces along y axis will be 0 hence

T_{BE}-W=0 hence

T_{BE}=W=20*9.81=196.2 N

Therefore, tension in the cable, T_{BE}=196.2 N

Taking moments about point A, with clockwise moments as positive while anticlockwise moments as negative then

196.2\times 0.125- 196.2\times 0.2+ D_x\times 0.2=0

24.525-39.24+0.2D_x=0

D_x=73.575 N

Similarly,

A_x-D_y=0

A_x=73.575 N

Therefore, both reactions at A and D are 73.575 N

SashulF [63]

Answer:

the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate.

Explanation:

NB: kindly check below for the attached picture.

The term ''Euler circuit'' can simply be defined as the graph that shows the edge of K once in a finite way by starting and putting a stop to it at the same vertex.

The term "Hamiltonian Circuit" is also known as the Hamiltonian cycle which is all about a one time visit to the vertex.

Here in this question, the door is the vertex and the road is the edge.

The information needed to detemine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit is;

"the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate."

Check attachment for each type of circuit and the differences.
