Answer:

The volume percent of graphite is 91.906 per cent.

Explanation:

The volume percent of graphite (\% V_{Gr}) is determined by the following expression:

\%V_{Gr} = \frac{V_{Gr}}{V_{Gr}+V_{Fe}} \times 100\,\%

\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1+\frac{V_{Gr}}{V_{Fe}} }\times 100\,\%

Where:

V_{Gr} - Volume occupied by the graphite phase, measured in cubic centimeters.

V_{Fe} - Volume occupied by the ferrite phase, measured in cubic centimeters.

The volume of each phase can be calculated in terms of its density and mass. That is:

V_{Gr} = \frac{m_{Gr}}{\rho_{Gr}}

V_{Fe} = \frac{m_{Fe}}{\rho_{Fe}}

Where:

m_{Gr}, m_{Fe} - Masses of the graphite and ferrite phases, measured in grams.

\rho_{Gr}, \rho_{Fe} - Densities of the graphite and ferrite phases, measured in grams per cubic centimeter.

Let substitute each volume in the definition of the volume percent of graphite:

\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1 +\frac{\frac{m_{Gr}}{\rho_{Gr}} }{\frac{m_{Fe}}{\rho_{Fe}} } } \times 100\,\%

\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1+\left(\frac{m_{Gr}}{m_{Fe}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{\rho_{Fe}}{\rho_{Gr}} \right)}\times 100\,\%

Let suppose that 100 grams of cast iron are available, masses of each phase are now determined:

m_{Gr} = \frac{2.5}{100}\times (100\,g)

m_{Gr} = 2.5\,g

m_{Fe} = 100\,g - 2.5\,g

m_{Fe} = 97.5\,g

If m_{Gr} = 2.5\,g, m_{Fe} = 97.5\,g, \rho_{Fe} = 7.9\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}} and \rho_{Gr} = 2.3\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}}, the volume percent of graphite is:

\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1+\left(\frac{2.5\,gr}{97.5\,gr} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{7.9\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}} }{2.3\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}} } \right)} \times 100\,\%

\% V_{Gr} = 91.906\,\%

The volume percent of graphite is 91.906 per cent.

A cone-shaped part is to be fabricated using stereolithography. The radius of the cone at its base = 35 mm, and its height = 50
iren [92.7K]

Explanation:

volume = πR²h/3

= πx35²x50/3

= 192325/3

= 64166.725

number of layers n = 50mm/0.05

n = 1000layers

average volume = 64166.725/1000

= 64.167mm³

average area = 64.167/0.05

= 1283.34mm²

average time = 1283.34/900mm x 0.22

= 6.48

6.48 + 15 seconds

= 21.48 seconds

time required = 1000x21.48

= 21480 seconds

convert to minutes

21480/60

= 358 minutes

21480/3600

= 5.967 hours

What is the total inductance of a circuit that contains two 10 uh inductors connected in a parallel?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

  5 microhenries

Explanation:

The effective value of inductors in parallel "add" in the same way that resistors in parallel do. The value is the reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals of the inductances that are in parallel.

  10 uH ║ 10 uH = 5 uH

The effective inductance is 5 uH.

A pump operating at steady state receives liquid water at 20°C, 100 kPa with a mass flow rate of 53 kg/min. The pressure of the
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Input Power = 6.341 KW

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate enthalpy of the water at inlet and exit state.

At inlet, water is at 20° C and 100 KPa. Under these conditions from saturated water table:

Since the water is in compresses liquid state and the data is not available in compressed liquid chart. Therefore, we use approximation:

h₁ = hf at 20° C = 83.915 KJ/kg

s₁ = sf at 20° C = 0.2965 KJ/kg.k

At the exit state,

P₂ = 5 M Pa

s₂ = s₁ = 0.2965 K J / kg.k    (Isentropic Process)

Since Sg at 5 M Pa is greater than s₂. Therefore, water is in compresses liquid state. Therefore, from compressed liquid property table:

h₂ = 88.94 KJ/kg

Now, the total work done by the pump can be calculated as:

Pump Work = W = (Mass Flow Rate)(h₂ - h₁)

W = (53 kg/min)(1 min/60 sec)(88.94 KJ/kg - 83.915 KJ/kg)

W = 4.438 KW

The efficiency of pump is given as:

efficiency = η = Pump Work/Input Power

Input Power = W/η

Input Power = 4.438 KW/0.7

<u>Input Power = 6.341 KW</u>

A very long pipe of 0.05 m (r1) radius and 0.03 m thickness (r2 - r1) is buried at a depth of 2m (z) to transport liquid nitroge
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The surface temperature of the ground is = 296.946K

Explanation:

Solution

Given

r₁= 0.05m

r₂= 0.08m

Tn =Ti = 77K

Ki = 0.0035 Wm-1K-1

Kg =  1 Wm-1K-1

Z= 2m

Now,

The outer type temperature (Skin temperature pipe)

Q = T₀ -T₁/ln (r2/r1)/2πKi = 2πKi  T0 -T1/ln (r2/r1)

Thus,

10 w/m = 2π * 0.0035 = T0 -77/ln 0.08/0.05

⇒ T₀ -77 = 231.72

    T₀= 290.72K

The shape factor between the cylinder and he ground

S = 2πL/ln 4z/D

where L = length of pipe

D = outer layer of pipe

S = 2π * 1/4 *2/ 2 * 0.08 = 1.606m

The heat gained in the pipe is = S  * Kg * (Tg- T₀)

(10* 1) = 1.606 * 1* (Tg- 290.72)

Tg - 290.72 = 6.2266

Tg = 296.946K

Therefore the surface temperature to the ground is 296.946K
