A police officer in a patrol car parked in a 70 km/h speed zone observes a passing automobile traveling at a slow, constant spee

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

S = 0.5 km

velocity of motorist = 42.857 km/h

Explanation:

given data

speed = 70 km/h

accelerates uniformly = 90 km/h

time = 8 s

overtakes motorist = 42 s

solution

we know initial velocity u1 of police = 0

final velocity u2 = 90 km/h = 25 mps

we apply here equation of motion

u2 = u1 + at

so acceleration a will be

a = $\frac{25-0}{8}$

a = 3.125 m/s²

distance will be

S1 = 0.5 × a × t²

S1 = 100 m = 0.1 km

and

S2 = u2 × t

S2 = 25 × 16

S2 = 400 m = 0.4 km

so total distance travel by police

S = S1 + S2

S = 0.1 + 0.4

S = 0.5 km

and

when motorist travel with uniform velocity

than total time = 42 s

so velocity of motorist will be

velocity of motorist = $\frac{S}{t}$

velocity of motorist = $\frac{500}{42}$

velocity of motorist = 42.857 km/h

A 0.25in diameter steel rod BC is securely attached between two identical 1in diameter copper rods (AB and CD). Find the torque

Helen [10]

Answer:

Tmax= 46.0 lb-in

Explanation:

Given:

- The diameter of the steel rod BC d1 = 0.25 in

- The diameter of the copper rod AB and CD d2 = 1 in

- Allowable shear stress of steel τ_s = 15ksi

- Allowable shear stress of copper τ_c = 12ksi

Find:

Find the torque T_max

Solution:

- The relation of allowable shear stress is given by:

τ = 16*T / pi*d^3

T = τ*pi*d^3 / 16

- Design Torque T for Copper rod:

T_c = τ_c*pi*d_c^3 / 16

T_c = 12*1000*pi*1^3 / 16

T_c = 2356.2 lb.in

- Design Torque T for Steel rod:

T_s = τ_s*pi*d_s^3 / 16

T_s = 15*1000*pi*0.25^3 / 16

T_s = 46.02 lb.in

- The design torque must conform to the allowable shear stress for both copper and steel. The maximum allowable would be:

T = min ( 2356.2 , 46.02 )

T = 46.02 lb-in

Consider a Carnot heat pump cycle executed in a steady-flow system in the saturated mixture region using R-134a flowing at a rat

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

7.15

Explanation:

Firstly, the COP of such heat pump must be measured that is,

$COP_{HP}=\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_L}$

Therefore, the temperature relationship, $T_H=1.15\;T_L$

Then, we should apply the values in the COP.

$=\frac{1.15\;T_L}{1.15-1}$

$=7.67$

The number of heat rejected by the heat pump must then be calculated.

$Q_H=COP_{HP}\times W_{nst}$

$=7.67\times5=38.35$

We must then calculate the refrigerant mass flow rate.

$m=0.264\;kg/s$

$q_H=\frac{Q_H}{m}$

$=\frac{38.35}{0.264}=145.27$

The $h_g$ value is 145.27 and therefore the hot reservoir temperature is 64° C.

The pressure at 64 ° C is thus 1849.36 kPa by interpolation.

And, the lowest reservoir temperature must be calculated.

$T_L=\frac{T_H}{1.15}$

$=\frac{64+273}{1.15}=293.04$

$=19.89\°C$

the lowest reservoir temperature = 258.703 kpa

So, the pressure ratio should be = 7.15
