Answer:

W = 166.35 KJ

Explanation:

P₁ = 600 KPa

V₁ = 0.4 m³

V₂ = 0.2 m³

T = 300 K

W = ?

We can find the solution from the standard relation for work in an isothermal process

W = -n*R*T*Ln (Vf / Vi)

We know that

n*R*T = P*V  ⇒    P₁*V₁ = P₂*V₂ = n*R*T = 600 *0.4 = 240

Now, we use the equation

W = -n*R*T*Ln (Vf / Vi) = - P₁*V₁*Ln (Vf / Vi)

⇒   W = -240*Ln (0.2 / 0.4) = 166.35 KJ

A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 75 MPa (68.25 ksi). If the plate is
wariber [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Strain fracture toughness K_k= 75 MPa\sqrt{m}

Tensile stress \sigma = 361 MPa

Value of Y = 1.03

Thus, the minimum length of the critical interior surface crack which will result to fracture can be determined by using the formula:

a_c = \dfrac{1}{\pi} ( \dfrac{k_k}{\sigma Y})^2 \\ \\  a_c = \dfrac{1}{\pi} \Big [ \dfrac{75 \times \sqrt{10^3}}{361 \times 1.03 } \Big]^2 \\ \\  a_c = \dfrac{1}{\pi} \Big [ 6.378474693\Big]^2  \\ \\ \mathbf{ a_c = 12.95 \ mm}

What is the peak runoff discharge for a 1.3 in/hr storm event from a 9.4-acre concrete-paved parking lot (C
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

331809.5gallon/hr or 92.16gallon/s

Explanation:

What is the peak runoff discharge for a 1.3 in/hr storm event from a 9.4-acre concrete-paved parking lot (C

convert 9.4 acre to inches we have=5.896*10^7

How to calculate Peak runoff discharge

1. take the dimension of the roof

2. multiply the dimension by the n umber of inches of rainfall

3. Divide by 231 to get gallon equivalence (because 1 gallon = 231 cubic inches)

5.896*10^7*1.3

7.66*10^7 cubic inches/hr

1 gallon=231 cubic inches

7.66*10^7 cubic inches=331809.5gallon/hr or 92.16gallon/s

this is gotten by converting 1 hr to seconds

331809.5gallon/hr /3600s=92.16gallon/s

A 21-mm-diameter steel bar is to be used as a torsion spring. If the torsional stress in the bar is not to exceed 109 MPa when o
Daniel [21]

Answer:

2m

Explanation:

The modulus of rigidity was omitted in the question and I'm using the modulus of rigidity of structural steel (G=79 GPa)

For the shaft, the maximum moment

T=π×rho×d³/16

Where π=3.14

Rho= torsional stress=109MPa

d=diameter of of shaft= 21mm

Inserting values of π, rho and d

T= 198,230.54Nmm

Polar moment of the shaft is given by

J= π D⁴/ 32

Also torsional moment (in radian) of the shaft is given as

α = L ×T / (J× G)

α = 32× L×T / (G× π× D⁴)

And in degrees,

αdegrees = 584× L×T / (G×D⁴)

Where L=length of shaft and G is modulus of rigidity

L=α×d⁴×G/584×T

Where α=15⁰, d=0.021m, G=79×10⁹Pa, T=198.23Nm

Substituting values for α, d, G and T

L=1.99m approximately 2m
