Answer:

If a truss buckles or overturns, it is usually because of the failure of an adjacent truss or its bracing. A steel truss in a fire may buckle and overturn because of expansion or weakening from the heat. Most truss failures are the result of broken connections. Photo 1 shows a set of parallel-chord wood trusses supporting a plywood floor deck.

Two substances, A and B, initially at different temperatures, come into contact and reach thermal equilibrium. The mass of subst

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of substance A is 1.16 J/g

Explanation:

The substances A and B come to a thermal equilibrium, therefore, the heat given by the hotter substance B is absorbed by the colder substance A.

The equation becomes:

Heat release by Substance B = Heat Gained by Substance A

The heat can be calculated by the formula:

Heat = mCΔT

where,

m = mass of substance

C = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = difference in temperature of substance

Therefore, the equation becomes:

(mCΔT) of A = (mCΔT) of B

FOR SUBSTANCE A:

m = 6.01 g

ΔT = Final Temperature - Initial Temperature

ΔT = 46.1°C - 20°C = 26.1°C

C = ?

FOR SUBSTANCE B:

m = 25.6 g

ΔT = Initial Temperature - Final Temperature

ΔT = 52.2°C - 46.1°C = 6.1°C

C = 1.17 J/g

Therefore, eqn becomes:

(6.01 g)(C)(26.1°C) = (25.6 g)(1.17 J/g)(6.1°C)

C = (182.7072 J °C)/(156.861 g °C)

C = 1.16 J/g

What is the term RF exiciter?

Sati [7]

The exciter provides fully coherent receiver local oscillator signals at radar frequency band as well as requisite, auxiliary high frequency clock signals. The exciter function is divided into an internal frequency synthesizer and an upconverter.

Hope this helps :)))

Steam enters a turbine in a Rankine cycle power plant at 200 psia and 500 °F. a) Calculate the isentropic thermal efficiency if

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

η=0.19=19% for p=14.7psi

η=0.3=30% for p=1psi

Explanation:

enthalpy before the turbine, state: superheated steam

h1(p=200psi,t=500F)=2951.9KJ/kg

s1=6.8kJ/kgK

Entalpy after the turbine

h2(p=14.7psia, s=6.8)=2469KJ/Kg

Entalpy before the boiler

h3=(p=14.7psia,x=0)=419KJ/Kg

Learn to pronounce

the efficiency for a simple rankine cycle is

η= $\frac{h1-h2}{h1-h3}$

η=(2951.9KJ/kg-2469KJ/Kg)/(2951.9KJ/kg-419KJ/Kg)

η=0.19=19%

second part

h2(p=1psia, s=6.8)=2110

h3(p=1psia, x=0)=162.1

η=(2951.9KJ/kg-2110KJ/Kg)/(2951.9KJ/kg-162.1KJ/Kg)

η=0.3=30%
