Answer:

cross-weight is used to tighten it up.

Explanation:

and yes this is important because Cross-weight percentage compares the diagonal weight totals to the car's total weight.

hope this help

A boy weighing 108-lb starts from rest at the bottom A of a 6-percent incline and increases his speed at a constant rate to 7 mi

baherus [9]

Answer:

88.18 W

Explanation:

The weight of the boy is given as 108 lb

Change to kg =108*0.453592= 48.988 kg = 49 kg

The slope is given as 6% , change it to degrees as

6/100 =0.06

tan⁻(0.06)= 3.43°

The boy is travelling at a constant speed up the slope = 7mi/hr

Change 7 mi/h to m/s

7*0.44704 =3.13 m/s

Formula for power P=F*v where

P=power output

F=force

v=velocity

Finding force

F=m*g*sin 3.43°

F=49*9.81*sin 3.43° =28.17

Finding the power out

P=28.17*3.13 =88.18 W

What is the minimum efficiency of a functioning current-model catalytic converter? a. 60% b. 75% c. 80% d. 90%

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

d. 90%

Explanation:

As we know that internal combustion engine produce lot's of toxic gases to reduce these toxic gases in the environment a device is used and this device is know as current modeling converter.

Generally the efficiency of current model catalytic converter is more than 90%.But the minimum efficiency this converter is 90%.

So option d is correct.

d. 90%

Steam enters a turbine steadily at 7 MPa and 600°C with a velocity of 60 m/s and leaves at 25 kPa with a quality of 95 percent.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a) $\dot m = 16.168\,\frac{kg}{s}$ , b) $v_{out} = 680.590\,\frac{m}{s}$ , c) $\dot W_{out} = 18276.307\,kW$

Explanation:

A turbine is a steady-state devices which transforms fluid energy into mechanical energy and is modelled after the Principle of Mass Conservation and First Law of Thermodynamics, whose expressions are described hereafter:

Mass Balance

$\frac{v_{in}\cdot A_{in}}{\nu_{in}} - \frac{v_{out}\cdot A_{out}}{\nu_{out}} = 0$

Energy Balance

$-q_{loss} - w_{out} + h_{in} - h_{out} = 0$

Specific volumes and enthalpies are obtained from property tables for steam:

Inlet (Superheated Steam)

$\nu_{in} = 0.055665\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

$h_{in} = 3650.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

Outlet (Liquid-Vapor Mix)

$\nu_{out} = 5.89328\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

$h_{out} = 2500.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

a) The mass flow rate of the steam is:

$\dot m = \frac{v_{in}\cdot A_{in}}{\nu_{in}}$

$\dot m = \frac{\left(60\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (0.015\,m^{2})}{0.055665\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} }$

$\dot m = 16.168\,\frac{kg}{s}$

b) The exit velocity of steam is:

$\dot m = \frac{v_{out}\cdot A_{out}}{\nu_{out}}$

$v_{out} = \frac{\dot m \cdot \nu_{out}}{A_{out}}$

$v_{out} = \frac{\left(16.168\,\frac{kg}{s} \right)\cdot \left(5.89328\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} \right)}{0.14\,m^{2}}$

$v_{out} = 680.590\,\frac{m}{s}$

c) The power output of the steam turbine is:

$\dot W_{out} = \dot m \cdot (-q_{loss} + h_{in}-h_{out})$

$\dot W_{out} = \left(16.168\,\frac{kg}{s} \right)\cdot \left(-20\,\frac{kJ}{kg} + 3650.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 2500.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}\right)$

$\dot W_{out} = 18276.307\,kW$

What is the rated power output in ( kw) of a 8 pole motor designed to an IEC 180L motor frame ?<br>

ra1l [238]

Answer:

P=11 kW

Explanation:

Given that

Number of poles= 8

I.E.C. 180L motor frame

From data book , for 8 poles motor at 50 Hz

Speed = 730 rpm

Power factor = 0.75

Efficiency at 100 % load= 89.3 %

Efficiency at 50 % load= 89.1 %

Output power = 11 kW

Therefore the rated output power of 8 poles motor will be 11 kW. Thus the answer will be 11 kW.

P=11 kW
