Significant figures are an indicator of accuracy. a) True b) False

Engineering
1 answer:
san4es73 [151]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:  False

Explanation: Significant figures are the figure or numbers that display the preciseness. Being precise in the scientific field describes that the measured figures obtained are close to each other.

Significant are those figures which are used for reporting any measurement precisely and correctly whereas accuracy defines that the obtained figure has a value close to any known value. Thus the statement given in the question is false.

A stationary gas-turbine power plant operates on a simple ideal Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid. The air enters the
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

A) W' = 15680 KW

B) W' = 17113.87 KW

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature at state 1; T1 = 290 K

Temperature at state 3; T3 = 1100 K

Rate of heat transfer; Q_in = 35000 kJ/s = 35000 Kw

Pressure of air into compressor; P_c = 95 kPa

Pressure of air into turbine; P_t = 760 kPa

A) The power assuming constant specific heats at room temperature is gotten from;

W' = [1 - ((T4 - T1)/(T3 - T2))] × Q_in

Now, we don't have T4 and T2 but they can be gotten from;

T4 = [T3 × (r_p)^((1 - k)/k)]

T2 = [T1 × (r_p)^((k - 1)/k)]

r_p = P_t/P_c

r_p = 760/95

r_p = 8

Also,k which is specific heat capacity of air has a constant value of 1.4

Thus;

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

T4 = [(1100 × (8^((1 - 1.4)/1.4)]

T4 = 607.25 K

T2 = [290 × (8^((1.4 - 1)/1.4)]

T2 = 525.32 K

Thus;

W' = [1 - ((607.25 - 290)/(1100 - 525.32))] × 35000

W' = 0.448 × 35000

W' = 15680 KW

B) The power accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature is given by;

W' = [1 - ((h4 - h1)/(h3 - h2))] × Q_in

From the table attached, we have the following;

At temperature of 607.25 K and by interpolation; h4 = 614.64 KJ/K

At T3 = 1100 K, h3 = 1161.07 KJ/K

At T1 = 290 K, h1 = 290.16 KJ/K

At T2 = 525.32 K, and by interpolation, h2 = 526.12 KJ/K

Thus;

W' = [1 - ((614.64 - 290.16)/(1161.07 - 526.12))] × 35000

W' = 17113.87 KW

A cylindrical drill with radius 4 is used to bore a hole through the center of a sphere of radius 5. Find the volume of the ring
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The volume of the ring shaped solid that remains is 21 unit^3.

Explanation:

The total volume of the sphere is given as:

Volume of Sphere = (4/3)πr^3

where, r = radius of sphere

Volume of Sphere = (4/3)(π)(5)^3

Volume of Sphere = 523.6 unit^3

Now, we find the volume of sphere removed by the drill:

Volume removed = (Cross-sectional Area of drill)(Diameter of Sphere)

Volume removed = (πr²)(D)

where, r = radius of drill = 4

D = diameter of sphere = 2*5 = 10

Therefore,

Volume removed = (π)(4)²(10)

Volume removed = 502.6 unit^3

Therefore, the volume of ring shaped solid that remains will be the difference between the total volume of sphere, and the volume removed.

Volume of Ring = Volume of Sphere - Volume removed

Volume of Ring = 523.6 - 502.6

<u>Volume of Ring = 21 unit^3</u>
