The average age of engineering students at graduation is a little over 23 years. This means that the working career of most engi

neers is almost exactly 500 months. How much would an engineer need to save each month to accrue $5 million by the end of her working career? Assume a 9% interest rate, compounded monthly.

Answer:

$916

Explanation:

To solve this, we use the formula

FV = P/i * [(1+i)^n - 1], where

FV = future value of the all the money invested, $5 million

n = time span, = 500 months

P = payment per month

I = interest rate, 9% by 12 months, = 0.0075

Considering that we have been given all in our question, then we substitute directly and solve. So we have,

5000000 = P/0.0075 * [(1+0.0075)^500 -1]

5000000 * 0.0075 = P * [1.0075^500 - 1]

37500 = P * [41.93 - 1]

37500 = P * 40.93

P = 37500/40.93

P = $916.20

Therefore, the engineer needs to save $916 in a month which is the accrued

On the generalized enthalpy departure chart, the normalized enthalpy departure values seem to approach zero as the reduced press
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Enthalpy is a function of pressure hence normalized enthalpy departure values will approach zero with reduced pressure approaching zero

Explanation:

On the generalized enthalpy departure chart, the normalized enthalpy departure values seem to approach zero as the reduced pressure PR approaches zero. this is because enthalpy is a function of pressure therefore as the Pressure is reducing towards the zero value, the gas associated with the pressure tends to behave more like an Ideal gas.

For an Ideal gas the Normalized enthalpy departure value will be approaching the zero value.

Gear A has a mass of 1 kg and a radius of gyration of 30 mm; gear B has a mass of 4 kg and a radius of gyration of 75 mm; gear C
Kruka [31]

Answer:

(4.5125 * 10^-3 kg.m^2)ω_A^2

Explanation:

solution:

Moments of inertia:

I = mk^2

Gear A: I_A = (1)(0.030 m)^2 = 0.9*10^-3 kg.m^2

Gear B: I_B = (4)(0.075 m)^2 = 22.5*10^-3 kg.m^2

Gear C: I_C = (9)(0.100 m)^2 = 90*10^-3 kg.m^2

Let r_A be the radius of gear A, r_1 the outer radius of gear B, r_2 the inner radius of gear B, and r_C the radius of gear C.

r_A=50 mm

r_1 =100 mm

r_2 =50 mm

r_C=150 mm

At the contact point between gears A and B,

r_1*ω_b = r_A*ω_A

ω_b = r_A/r_1*ω_A

       = 0.5ω_A

At the contact point between gear B and C.

At the contact point between gears A and B,

r_C*ω_C = r_2*ω_B

ω_C = r_2/r_C*ω_B

       = 0.1667ω_A

kinetic energy T = 1/2*I_A*ω_A^2+1/2*I_B*ω_B^2+1/2*I_C*ω_C^2

                           =(4.5125 * 10^-3 kg.m^2)ω_A^2

I have a molten Ni-Cu alloy with 60 wt%Ni. (ii) I cool it down to a temperature where I have both solid and liquid phases. At th
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The percentage of the remaining alloy would become solid is 20%

Explanation:

Melting point of Cu = 1085°C

Melting point of Ni = 1455°C

At 1200°C, there is a 30% liquid and 70% solid, the weight percentage of Ni in alloy is the same that percentage of solid, then, that weight percentage is 70%.

The Ni-Cu alloy with 60% Ni and 40% Cu, and if we have the temperature of alloy > temperature of Ni > temperature of Cu, we have the follow:

60% Ni (liquid) and 40% Cu (liquid) at temperature of alloy

At solid phase with a temperature of alloy and 50% solid Cu and 50% liquid Ni, we have the follow:

40% Cu + 10% Ni in liquid phase and 50% of Ni is in solid phase.

The percentage of remaining alloy in solid is equal to

Solid = (10/50) * 100 = 20%
