Three parallel three-phase loads are supplied from a 480V (line-line RMS), 60 Hz three-phase supply. The loads are as follows: L

oad 1: A 20HP motor operating at full load, 90% efficiency and a 0.8 lagging power factor. Load 2: A balanced resistive load that draws a total of 20kW. Load 3: A Y-connected capacitor bank with a total rating of 20kVAr. What is the total system kW ?

Answer:

The total system active power P = P_1 + P_2 + P_3 = 34.91 KW

Explanation:

Load 1: Active power P_1 = 20 HP = 14.91kW;

Reactive power $Q1 = P tan(\phi)$

$= 14.91\times tan(cos^{-}0.8) = 11.18 kvar
$

Load 2: Active power P_2 = 20 kW;

Reactive power Q2 = 0 since the load is purely resistive.

Load 3: Active power $P_3$ = 0 due to purely capacitiveload

Reactive power $Q_3$ = -20 Var

a) since all three loads are connected in parallel therefore

The total system active power P = P_1 + P_2 + P_3 = 34.91 KW

Total system reactive power Q = Q_1 + Q_2 + Q_3 = 11.18 + 0 -20 = -8.82 kVar

Since Q = 0, the power factor is unity.

Supply current per phase is given by

$I = \frac{P}{\sqrt{3}V_{L}}$

$= \frac{34910}{\sqrt{3}\times 480} = 41.99 A$

9. An embankment having a volume of 320,000 yd is to be constructed from local borrow. The dry unit weight and moisture content

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

correct option is (B) 315,500

Explanation:

given data

volume = 320,000 yd³ = 8640000 ft³

dry unit weight = 106 pcf

moisture content = 18.2%

total unit weight = 122 pcf

moisture content = 16.7%

to find out

volume of borrow lyd needed

solution

first we get here weight of material that is

weight = volume × unit weight

weight = 8640000 × 122

weight = 1054080000 lb

that weight is weight of water + weight of solid so

0.167 × weight is weight of water + weight of solid ) = 1054080000 lb

and weight of solid = $\frac{1054080000}{1.167}$

weight of soil solid is = 903239075 pound

and weight of water = 150840925 pound

so volume of soil = 903239075 ÷ 106 lb/ft³ = 8521123.34 ft³

and volume required = 8521123.34 ft³ ÷ 27 ft³ = 315597.161 yd³

volume required = 315500 yd³

so correct option is (B) 315,500

Que a state properties of Sounds ] 1 laws of replactions of light 2 2

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

A sound is an energy source, much like electricity, heat or light. That makes a loud ringing noise when you hit a bell. Now put your finger on the bell after you’ve hit it, rather than just listening to the bell. You can feel it shaking and this motion or moving, i.e., the body’s to and fro motion is termed as vibration.

Sound is a vibration that passes through the medium in the form of longitudinal waves. It implies that sound waves are waves wherein the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Sound forms are known as mechanical waves because they require a propagating medium. The medium may be

Solids

Liquids

Gases

Properties of sound

Frequency or pitch

Frequency is the number of cycles of periodic compression and rarefaction which occur every second as the wave propagates via the medium.

The human ear’s interpretation of the sound level within the range of human hearing is called the pitch.

The higher the sound frequency, the higher the pitch is and a lower frequency means a lower pitch.

Speed

The speed at which the sound waves travel via the medium is called sound speed. The speed of sound for different mediums is different. Sound moves in solids faster, as the atoms in a solid are packed tightly.

Amplitude or Loudness

The loudness determines the amplitude of the sound waves.

The sound amplitude is a measure of the magnitude of the overall sound disturbance.

The amplitude is a measure of the vibrational energy.

More energetic vibration is responsible for a greater amplitude.

Timbre

Timbre is the property used to distinguish between sounds of the same frequency.

Timbre based on what substance the sound is created from.

Reflection of sound

As sound waves encounter a solid or light surface, it bounces back into the same medium. It is termed as sound reflection. Sound waves obey the laws of reflection, like light waves.

The pressure in an automobile tire depends on the temperature of the air in the tire. When the air temperature is 25°C, the pres

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

ΔP=19.76 KPa

$\Delta m=10^{-3}\ gm$

Explanation:

Given that

$T_1= 25C, P_1= 210 \KPa \gauge$

atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa.

So absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure

$P_1=210+100\ KPa$ (absolute)

$P_1=310\ KPa$ (absolute)

Here volume of air is constant .We know that for constant volume pressure

$\dfrac{P_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{T_2}$

here

$T_2= 44C$

$T_1=273+25=298K$

$T_2=273+44=317K$

$\dfrac{P_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{T_2}$

$\dfrac{310}{298}=\dfrac{P_2}{317}$

$P_2=329.76\ KPa$ (absolute)

So rise in pressure

$\Delta P=P_1-P_2$

ΔP=329.76-310 KPa

ΔP=19.76 KPa

$m_1=\dfrac{P_1V}{RT_1}$

$m_1=\dfrac{310\times 0.025}{0.287\times 298}$

$m_1=0.090615\ kg$

$m_2=\dfrac{P_2V}{RT_2}$

$m_2=\dfrac{329.76\times 0.025}{0.287\times 317}$

$m_2=0.090614\ kg$

Δm=0.090615 - 0.090614 kg

$\Delta m=10^{-3}\ gm$
