A Carnot heat engine absorbs 235 KW of heat from a heat source and rejects 164 KW to the atmosphere. Determine the thermal effic

Answer:

43.2%

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat absorbed by a carnot heat engine, Q_1=235\ kW

Heat rejected to the atmosphere, Q_2=164\ kW

We need ti find the thermal efficiency of the heat engine. It is equal to the ratio of output work to the energy supplied. Its mathematical form is given by :

\eta=1-\dfrac{Q_1}{Q_2}\\\\\eta=1-\dfrac{235}{164}\\\\\eta=-0.432

or

\eta=-43.2\%

The egative value of efficiency shows work is done by the engine.

Elza [17]

Answer:

D) AND gate.

Explanation:

Given that:

A certain printer requires that all of the following conditions be satisfied before it will send a HIGH to la microprocessor acknowledging that it is ready to print

These conditions are:

1. The printer's electronic circuits must be energized.

2. Paper must be loaded and ready to advance.

3. The printer must be "on line" with the microprocessor.

Now; if these conditions are met  the logic gate produces a HIGH output indicating readiness to print.

The objective here is to determine the basic logic gate used in this circuit.

Now;

For NOR gate;

NOR gate gives HIGH only when all the inputs are low. but the question states it that "a HIGH is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate". This already falsify NOR gate to be the right answer.

For NOT gate.

NOT gate operates with only one input and one output device but here; we are dealing with 3-input logic gate.

Similarly, OR gate gives output as a high if any one of the input signals is high but we need "a HIGH that is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate".

Finally, AND gate output is HIGH only when all the input signal is HIGH and vice versa, i.e AND gate output is LOW only when all the input signal is LOW. So AND gate satisfies the given criteria that; all the three conditions must be true for the final signal to be HIGH.

When subject to an unknown torque, the shear stress in a 2 mm thick rectangular tube of dimension 100 mm x 200 mm was found to b
laila [671]

Answer:

The shear stress will be 80 MPa

Explanation:

Here we have;

τ = (T·r)/J

For rectangular tube, we have;

Average shear stress given as follows;

Where;

\tau_{ave} = \frac{T}{2tA_{m}}

A_m = 100 mm × 200 mm = 20000 mm² = 0.02 m²

t = Thickness of the shaft in question = 2 mm = 0.002 m

T = Applied torque

Therefore, 50 MPa = T/(2×0.002×0.02)

T = 50 MPa × 0.00008 m³ = 4000 N·m

Where the dimension is 50 mm × 250 mm, which is 0.05 m × 0.25 m

Therefore, A_m = 0.05 m × 0.25 m = 0.0125 m².

Therefore, from the following average shear stress formula, we have;

\tau_{ave} = \frac{T}{2tA_{m}}

Plugging in then values, gives;

\tau_{ave} = \frac{4000}{2\times 0.002 \times 0.0125} = 80,000,000 Pa

The shear stress will be 80,000,000 Pa or 80 MPa.
