Answer:

Explanation:

This will be possible when setting them up in summer with a certain quantity of sag, they have already know that the cables won't be able to sag any further because of the heat. During winter, when the cables contract because of the cold weather, the sag will therefore be reduced, but much tension will not be put on the cables.

Explain what a margin of safety is in driving as well as how it can help minimize risk.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

A safety margin is the space left between your vehicle and the next to provide room, time and visibility at every instant

Explanation:

A safety margin is defined as an allowance given between your vehicle and the next vehicle in front to provide enough room, visibility and time to move in a safe manner to prevent the occurrence of an accident at anytime the frontal vehicle suddenly stops or slows down

Safety margins help minimize risks in the following way

1) A common knowledge of safety margins, improves predictability among road users, thereby minimizing the risk traffic accidents caused due to late communication

2) The use of safety margins helps minimize the risk due to a change in driving conditions such as when the road becomes more slippery from being covered with fluid that is being wetted

3) Safety margin can help prevent the occurrence of an accident between vehicles due to failure of a car system, such as a punctured tire or failed breaking system

4) Safety margin helps to protect road users from the introduction of obstacles on the main roads such as ongoing road construction, broken down vehicles, road blockage by vehicles involved in an accident etc

5) Safety margin help protect road users from being involved in an accident due to the loss of driving focus of the driver of the frontal vehicle

An ideal gas undergoes two processes: one frictionless and the other not. In both the cases, the gas is initially at 200 ℉ and 1

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The process which has friction

Explanation:

The entropy is simply the change in the state of the things or the molecules in the system. It is simply the change in the energy of the system with a focus on the atoms in the system. This is also known as the internal energy of the system and is given the symbol, G. The friction contributes to the change in the energy of the system. This is because friction generates another form of energy - that is heat energy. This energy causes the internal temperature id the system to increase. Hence the greater change in the temperature.

Find a negative feedback controller with at least two tunable gains that (1) results in zero steady state error when the input i

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Gc(s) = $\frac{0.1s + 0.28727}{s}$

Explanation:

comparing the standard approximation with the plot attached we can tune the PI gains so that the desired response is obtained. this is because the time requirement of the setting is met while the %OS requirement is not achieved instead a 12% OS is seen from the plot.

A steam power plant operates on an ideal reheat- regenerative Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 80 MW. Steam enters th

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

flow(m) = 54.45 kg/s

thermal efficiency u = 44.48%

Explanation:

Given:

- P_1 = P_8 = 10 KPa

- P_2 = P_3 = P_6 = P_7 = 800 KPa

- P_4 = P_5 = 10,000 KPa

- T_5 = 550 C

- T_7 = 500 C

- Power Output P = 80 MW

Find:

- The mass flow rate of steam through the boiler

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle.

Solution:

State 1:

P_1 = 10 KPa , saturated liquid

h_1 = 192 KJ/kg

v_1 = 0.00101 m^3 / kg

State 2:

P_2 = 800 KPa , constant volume process work done:

h_2 = h_1 + v_1 * ( P_2 - P_1)

h_2 = 192 + 0.00101*(790) = 192.80 KJ/kg

State 3:

P_3 = 800 KPa , saturated liquid

h_3 = 721 KJ/kg

v_3 = 0.00111 m^3 / kg

State 4:

P_4 = 10,000 KPa , constant volume process work done:

h_4 = h_3 + v_3 * ( P_4 - P_3)

h_4 = 721 + 0.00111*(9200) = 731.21 KJ/kg

State 5:

P_5 = 10,000 KPa , T_5 = 550 C

h_5 = 3500 KJ/kg

s_5 = 6.760 KJ/kgK

State 6:

P_6 = 800 KPa , s_5 = s_6 = 6.760 KJ/kgK

h_6 = 2810 KJ/kg

State 7:

P_7 = 800 KPa , T_7 = 500 C

h_7 = 3480 KJ/kg

s_7 = 7.870 KJ/kgK

State 8:

P_8 = 10 KPa , s_8 = s_7 = 7.870 KJ/kgK

h_8 = 2490 KJ/kg

- Fraction of steam y = flow(m_6 / m_3).

- Use energy balance of steam bleed and cold feed-water:

E_6 + E_2 = E_3

flow(m_6)*h_6 + flow(m_2)*h_3 = flow(m_3)*h_3

y*h_6 + (1-y)*h_3 = h_3

y*2810 + (1-y)*192.8 = 721

Compute y: y = 0.2018

- Heat produced by the boiler q_b:

q_b = h_5 - h_4 +(1-y)*(h_7 - h_8)

q_b = 3500 -731.21 + ( 1 - 0.2018)*(3480 - 2810)

Compute q_b: q_b = 3303.58 KJ/ kg

-Heat dissipated by the condenser q_c:

q_c = (1-y)*(h_8 - h_1)

q_c= ( 1 + 0.2018)*(2810 - 192)

Compute q_c: q_c = 1834.26 KJ/ kg

- Net power output w_net:

w_net = q_b - q_c

w_net = 3303.58 - 1834.26

w_net = 1469.32 KJ/kg

- Given out put P = 80,000 KW

flow(m) = P / w_net

compute flow(m) flow(m) = 80,000 /1469.32 = 54.45 kg/s

- Thermal efficiency u:

u = 1 - (q_c / q_b)

u = 1 - (1834.26/3303.58)

u = 44.48 %

Which of the following is NOT true about hydraulic systems?

Dmitry [639]

Answer: The answer is D

D.In hydraulic systems, the operating temperatures must be kept between 170�F and 180°F

Explanation:

The operating temperature for hydraulic systems is 140°F and below. Anything above this temperature is too high and will reduce the useful life of hydraulic fluid.

Most often problems associated with hydraulic systems are caused by fluid contaminated with particulate matter.
