Answer:

The value of Modulus of elasticity E = 85.33 × 10^{6} \frac{lbm}{in^{2} }

Beam deflection is = 0.15 in

Explanation:

Given data

width = 5 in

Length = 60 in

Mass of the person = 125 lb

Load = 125 × 32 = 4000\frac{ft lbm}{s^{2} }

We know that moment of inertia is given as

I = \frac{bt^{3} }{12}

I = \frac{5 (1.5^{3} )}{12}

I = 1.40625 in^{4}

Deflection = 0.15 in

We know that deflection of the beam in this case is given as

Δ = \frac{PL^{3} }{48EI}

0.15 = \frac{4000(60)^{3} }{48 E (1.40625)}

E = 85.33 × 10^{6} \frac{lbm}{in^{2} }

This is the value of Modulus of elasticity.

Beam deflection is = 0.15 in

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Both technician A and technician B are correct.

Explanation: Vehicle manufacturers always specify the size of the tires required for a given vehiclefor optimal efficiency,this will ensure that the speedometer is accurate and the level of the vehicle is good enough to ensure the vehicle works efficiently.

It is also a known fact that an increase in a vehicle's rpm(revolution per minute) will eventually lead to increased fuel consumption which means the fuel economy of the vehicle will be reduced making the vehicle less efficient in its fuel consumption.

Steam enters a heavily insulated throttling valve at 11 MPa, 600°C and exits at 5.5 MPa. Determine the final temperature of the
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: the final temperature of the steam 581.5 °C

Explanation:

Given that;

P₁ = 11 MPa

T₁ = 600°C

exit at; P₂= 5.5 MPa

Now from superheated steam table( p=11 MPa, T=600°C)

h₁ = 3615 kJ/kg  

h₁ = h₂ ( by throttling process and adiabatic isentholpic )

from saturated steam table at; ( h= 3615 kJ/kg, P= 5.5 MPa )

Temperature = 581.5 °C

Therefore the final temperature of the steam 581.5 °C

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Go to explaination for the details of the answer.

Explanation:

In order to determine the lifetime (75 years) chronic daily exposure for each individual, we have to first state the terms of our equation:

CDI = Chronic Daily Intake

C= Chemical concentration

CR= Contact Rate

EFD= Exposure Frequency and Distribution

BW= Body Weight

AT = Average Time.

Having names our variables lets create the equations that will be used to derive our answers.

Please kindly check attachment for details of the answer.
