Back burning, starting fires infront of the main fire to prevent the fire from spreading and depleting fuel for the fire, digging trenches so the fire has no where to go, dropping water from planes or helicopters.

A 400-m^3 storage tank is being constructed to hold LNG, liquefied natural gas, which may be assumed to be essentially pure meth
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

mass of LNG: 129501.3388 kg

quality: 0.005048662

Explanation:

Volume occupied by liquid:

400 m^3*0.9 = 360 m^3

Volume occupied by vapor

400 m^3*0.1 = 40 m^3  

A figured with thermodynamic properties of saturated methane is attached. Notice that a liquid-gas mixture is present

For liquid phase specific volume (vf) at 150 K is 0.002794 m^3/kg and for vapor phase specific volume (vg) is 0.06118 m^3/kg

From specific volume definition:

vf = liquid volume/liquid mass

liquid mass = liquid volume/vf

liquid mass = 360 m^3/0.002794 m^3/kg

liquid mass = 128847.5304 kg

vg = vapor volume/vapor mass

vapor mass = liquid volume/vg

vapor mass = 40 m^3/0.06118 m^3/kg

vapor mass = 653.8084341 kg

total mass = 128847.5304 kg + 653.8084341 kg = 129501.3388 kg

Quality is defined as the ratio between vapor mass and total mass

quality =  653.8084341 kg/129501.3388 kg = 0.005048662

A belt drive was designed to transmit the power of P=7.5 kW with the velocity v=10m/s. The tensile load of the tight side is twi
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

F₁ = 1500 N

F₂ = 750 N

F_{e} = 500 N

Explanation:

Given :

Power transmission, P = 7.5 kW

                                      = 7.5 x 1000 W

                                      = 7500 W

Belt velocity, V = 10 m/s

F₁ = 2 F₂

Now we know from power transmission equation

P = ( F₁ - F₂ ) x V

7500 = ( F₁ - F₂ ) x 10

750 =  F₁ - F₂

750 = 2 F₂ - F₂      ( ∵F₁ = 2 F₂ )

∴F₂  = 750 N

Now F₁ = 2 F₂

        F₁ = 2 x F₂

        F₁ = 2 x 750

        F₁ = 1500 N   ,   this is the maximum force.

Therefore we know,

F_{max} = 3 x F_{e}

where F_{e} is centrifugal force

 F_{e} = F_{max} / 3

                          = 1500 / 3

                         = 500 N
