An operating gear box (transmission) has 350 hp at its input shaft while 250. hp are delivered to the output shaft. The gear box

True [87]

Answer:

Rate of Entropy =210.14 J/K-s

Explanation:

given data:

power delivered to input = 350 hp

power delivered to output = 250 hp

temperature of surface = 180°F

rate of entropy is given as

$Rate\ of\ entropy = \frac{Rate\ of \ heat\ released}{Temperature}$

T = 180°F = 82°C = 355 K

Rate of heat = (350 - 250) hp = 100 hp = 74600 W

Rate of Entropy $= \frac{74600}{355} = 210.14 J/K-s$

List two ways you can make an informal survey

solniwko [45]

The two ways you can use to make an informal survey are:

make field observations
interview people using informal unstructured techniques

<h3>What are informal surveys?</h3>

In informal surveys can be regarded as a type of survey that can be made by the researcher by going to the field themselves and this can be done by using different methods or ways.

For instance, the researcher can go out to interview people that can give the data that is needed about the research such as informally asking them questions, unstructured techniques can also be used to solve critical issues.

A rectangular steel bar, with 8" x 0.75" cross-sectional dimensions, has equal and opposite moments applied to its ends.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Part a: The yield moment is 400 k.in.

Part b: The strain is $8.621 \times 10^{-4} in/in$

Part c: The plastic moment is 600 ksi.

Explanation:

Part a:

As per bending equation

$\frac{M}{I}=\frac{F}{y}$

Here

M is the moment which is to be calculated
I is the moment of inertia given as

$I=\frac{bd^3}{12}$

Here

b is the breath given as 0.75"
d is the depth which is given as 8"

$I=\frac{bd^3}{12}\\I=\frac{0.75\times 8^3}{12}\\I=32 in^4$

y is given as

$y=\frac{d}{2}\\y=\frac{8}{2}\\y=4"\\$

Force is 50 ksi

$\frac{M_y}{I}=\frac{F_y}{y}\\M_y=\frac{F_y}{y}{I}\\M_y=\frac{50}{4}{32}\\M_y=400 k. in$

The yield moment is 400 k.in.

Part b:

The strain is given as

$Strain=\frac{Stress}{Elastic Modulus}$

The stress at the station 2" down from the top is estimated by ratio of triangles as

$F_{2"}=\frac{F_y}{y}\times 2"\\F_{2"}=\frac{50 ksi}{4"}\times 2"\\F_{2"}=25 ksi$

Now the steel has the elastic modulus of E=29000 ksi

$Strain=\frac{Stress}{Elastic Modulus}\\Strain=\frac{F_{2"}}{E}\\Strain=\frac{25}{29000}\\Strain=8.621 \times 10^{-4} in/in$

So the strain is $8.621 \times 10^{-4} in/in$

Part c:

For a rectangular shape the shape factor is given as 1.5.

Now the plastic moment is given as

$shape\, factor=\frac{Plastic\, Moment}{Yield\, Moment}\\{Plastic\, Moment}=shape\, factor\times {Yield\, Moment}\\{Plastic\, Moment}=1.5\times400 ksi\\{Plastic\, Moment}=600 ksi$

The plastic moment is 600 ksi.
