The basic barometer can be used to measure the height of a building. If the barometric readings at the top and at the bottom of

a building are 730 and 755 mmHg, respectively, determine the height of the building. Assume an average air density of 1.18 kg/m^3.

Answer:

h = 287.1 m

Explanation:

the density of mercury \rho =13570 kg/m3

the atmospheric pressure at the top of the building is

p_t = \rho gh  = 13570*908*0.73 = 97.08 kPa

the atmospheric pressure at bottom

p_b = \rho gh  = 13570*908*0.75 = 100.4 kPa

\frac{w_{air}}{A} =p_b -p_t

we have also

(\rho gh)_{air} = p_b - p_t

1.18*9.81*h = (100.4 -97.08)*10^3

h = 287.1 m

A clay sample has a wet mass of 417 g, a volume of 276 cm3, and a specific gravity of 2.70. When oven dried, the mass becomes 22
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

a. WATER CONTENT.

mass of water (MW)= 417g - 225g

Mw= 192g

M= (Mw / Ms)

M= [192/417]

M= 0.46

M= 46.0%

b. Void Ration (e)

To calculate the void ratio we must first calculate the volume of solids. Then we can find the volume of voids by subtracting the volume of solids from the total volume.

Ps= (Ms/Vs)=GsPw

Therefore

Vs= (Ms/GsPw)

Vs= (417/ 2.70*1000)

Vs= 0.154cm3

But V= Vv+Vs

Vv=V-Vs

e= (Vv/Vs)

Reference sources reveal that a workpiece material has a unit horsepower of 1.6 hp/in3/min. For a turning operation, the cutting
Troyanec [42]

The question is incomplete. We have to calculate :

a). the cutting force

b). volumetric metal removal rate, MRR

c). the horsepower required at the cut

d). if the power efficiency of the machine tool is 90%, determine the motor horsepower

Solution :

Given :

Cutting velocity (v) = 500 ft/min

                               = 500 x 12 in/min

                               = 6000 in/min

Feed , f = 0.025 in/rev

Depth of cut, d = 0.2 in

b). Volumetric material removal rate, MRR = v.f.d

                                                                      = 6000 x 0.025 x 0.2

                                                                      = 30 $in^3 / min$

c). Horsepower required = MRR x unit horsepower

                                         = 30 x 1.6

                                         = 48 hp

a). Cutting force,

$F=\frac{power}{cuting \ velocity}$

    $=\frac{48 \times 550}{500 /60}$                (1 hp = 550 ft lbf /sec)

   = 3168 lbf

d). Machine HP required

  $=\frac{HP}{\eta}$

 $=\frac{48}{0.9}$

= 53.33 HP
