What are the advantages to a quality saw?

1 answer:

7 0

Ans: A quality handsaw makes jobs such as crosscutting moldings, cleaning out dovetails and flush cutting dowels and pegs faster, cleaner and safer. There are myriad different types and sizes of blades for working with wood and other materials.

11) (10 points) A large valve is to be used to control water supply in large conduits. Model tests are to be done to determine h

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

7.94 ft^3/ s.

Explanation:

So, we are given that the '''model will be 1/6 scale (the modeled valve will be 1/6 the size of the prototype valve)'' and the prototype flow rate is to be 700 ft3 /s. Then, we are asked to look for or calculate or determine the value for the model flow rate.

Note that we are to use Reynolds scaling for the velocity as par the instruction from the question above.

Therefore; kp/ks = 1/6.

Hs= 700 ft3 /s and the formula for the Reynolds scaling => Hp/Hs = (kp/ks)^2.5.

Reynolds scaling==> Hp/ 700 = (1/6)^2.5.

= 7.94 ft^3/ s

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

A post development hydrograph will have lower concentration time and lower infiltration losses and hence sooner peak and higher peak and more runoff or higher area under graph. Therefore, all the answers are correct hence option D

A thick aluminum block initially at 26.5°C is subjected to constant heat flux of 4000 W/m2 by an electric resistance heater whos

Yanka [14]

Given Information:

Initial temperature of aluminum block = 26.5°C

Heat flux = 4000 w/m²

Time = 2112 seconds

Time = 30 minutes = 30*60 = 1800 seconds

Required Information:

Rise in surface temperature = ?

Answer:

Rise in surface temperature = 8.6 °C after 2112 seconds

Rise in surface temperature = 8 °C after 30 minutes

Explanation:

The surface temperature of the aluminum block is given by

$T_{surface} = T_{initial} + \frac{q}{k} \sqrt{\frac{4\alpha t}{\pi} }$

Where q is the heat flux supplied to aluminum block, k is the conductivity of pure aluminum and α is the diffusivity of pure aluminum.

After t = 2112 sec:

$T_{surface} = 26.5 + \frac{4000}{237} \sqrt{\frac{4(9.71\times 10^{-5}) (2112)}{\pi} }\\\\T_{surface} = 26.5 + \frac{4000}{237} (0.51098)\\\\T_{surface} = 26.5 + 8.6\\\\T_{surface} = 35.1\\\\$

The rise in the surface temperature is

Rise = 35.1 - 26.5 = 8.6 °C

Therefore, the surface temperature of the block will rise by 8.6 °C after 2112 seconds.

After t = 30 mins:

$T_{surface} = 26.5 + \frac{4000}{237} \sqrt{\frac{4(9.71\times 10^{-5}) (1800)}{\pi} }\\\\T_{surface} = 26.5 + \frac{4000}{237} (0.4717)\\\\T_{surface} = 26.5 + 7.96\\\\T_{surface} = 34.5\\\\$

The rise in the surface temperature is

Rise = 34.5 - 26.5 = 8 °C

Therefore, the surface temperature of the block will rise by 8 °C after 30 minutes.

SVEN [57.7K]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

An air-standard Carnot cycle is executed in a closed system between the temperature limits of 350 and 1200 K. The pressures before and after the isothermal compression are 150 and 300 kPa, respectively. If the net work output per cycle is 0.5 kJ, determine (a) the maximum pressure in the cycle, (b) the heat transfer to air, and (c) the mass of air. Assume variable specific heats for air.

Answer:

a) the maximum pressure in the cycle is 30.01 Mpa

b) the heat transfer to air is 0.7058 KJ

c) mass of Air is 0.002957 kg

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

We find the relative pressure of air at 1200 K (T1) and 350 K ( T4)

so from the "ideal gas properties of air table"

Pr1 = 238

Pr4 = 2.379

we know that Pressure P1 is only maximum at the beginning of the expansion process,

now we express the relative pressure and pressure relation for the process 4-1

P1 = (Pr2/Pr4)P4

so we substitute

P1 = (238/2.379)300 kPa

P1 = 30012.6 kPa = 30.01 Mpa

Therefore the maximum pressure in the cycle is 30.01 Mpa

the Thermal heat efficiency of the Carnot cycle is expressed as;

ηth = 1 - (TL/TH)

we substitute

ηth = 1 - (350K/1200K)

ηth = 1 - 0.2916

ηth = 0.7084

now we find the heat transferred

Qin = W_net.out / ηth

given that the net work output per cycle is 0.5 kJ

we substitute

Qin = 0.5 / 0.7084

Qin = 0.7058 KJ

Therefore, the heat transfer to air is 0.7058 KJ

first lets express the change in entropy for process 3 - 4

S4 - S3 = (S°4 - S°3) - R.In(P4/P3)

S4 - S3 = - (0.287 kJ/Kg.K) In(300/150)kPa

= -0.1989 Kj/Kg.K = S1 - S2

so that; S2 - S1 = 0.1989 Kj/Kg.K

Next we find the net work output per unit mass for the Carnot cycle

W"_netout = (S2 - S1)(TH - TL)

we substitute

W"_netout = ( 0.1989 Kj/Kg.K )( 1200 - 350)K

= 169.065 kJ/kg

Finally we find the mass

mass m = W_ net.out / W"_netout

we substitute

m = 0.5 / 169.065

m = 0.002957 kg

Therefore, mass of Air is 0.002957 kg
