Answer:

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R) = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A) = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E) = 83.3 %

Explanation:

Given;

load lifted by the pulley, L = 400 N

effort applied in lifting the, E = 480 N

distance moved by the effort, d = 5 m

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R);

since the effort applied moved downwards through a distance of d, the load will also move upwards through an equal distance 'd'.

V.R = distance moved by effort / distance moved by the load

V.R = 5/5 = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A);

M.A = L/E

M.A = 400 / 480

M.A = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E);

E = \frac{M.A}{V.R} \times 100\%\\\\E = 0.833 \ \times \ 100\%\\\\ E = 83.3 \ \%

A hemispherical shell with an external diameter of 500 mm and a thickness of 20 mm is going to be made by casting, located entir
Olenka [21]

Solution :

Given :

External diameter of the hemispherical shell, D = 500 mm

Thickness, t = 20 mm

Internal diameter, d = D - 2t

                                 = 500 - 2(20)

                                 = 460 mm

So, internal radius, r = 230 mm

                                 = 0.23 m

Density of molten metal, ρ = $7.2 \ g/cm^3$

                                                  = $7200 \ kg/m^3$

The height of pouring cavity above parting surface is h = 300 mm

                                                                                                  = 0.3 m

So, the metallostatic thrust on the upper mold at the end of casting is :

$F=\rho g A h$

Area, A $=2 \pi r^2$

            $=2 \pi (0.23)^2$

            $=0.3324 \ m^2$

$F=\rho g A h$

   $=7200 \times 9.81 \times 0.3324 \times 0.3$

     = 7043.42 N

The purification of hydrogen gas is possible by diffusion through a thin palladium sheet. Calculate the number of kilograms of h
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: 5.36×10-3kg/h

Where 10-3 is 10 exponential 3 or 10 raised to the power of -3.

Explanation:using the formula

M =JAt = -DAt×Dc/Dx

Where D is change in the respective variables. Insulting the values we get,

=5.1 × 10-8 × 0.13 × 3600 × 2.9 × 0.31 / 4×10-3.

=5.36×10-3kg/h

Two different fuels are being considered for a 2.5 MW (net output) heat engine which can operate between the highest temperature
sveta [45]

Answer:

If the heat engine operates for one hour:

a) the fuel cost at Carnot efficiency for fuel 1 is $409.09 while fuel 2 is $421.88.

b) the fuel cost at 40% of Carnot efficiency for fuel 1 is $1022.73 while fuel 2 is $1054.68.

In both cases the total cost of using fuel 1 is minor, therefore it is recommended to use this fuel over fuel 2. The final observation is that fuel 1 is cheaper.

Explanation:

The Carnot efficiency is obtained as:

\epsilon_{car}=1-\frac{T_c}{T_H}

Where T_c is the atmospheric temperature and T_H is the maximum burn temperature.

For the case (B), the efficiency we will use is:

\epsilon_{b}=0.4\epsilon_{car}

The work done by the engine can be calculated as:

W=\epsilon Q=\epsilon H_v\cdot m_{fuel} where Hv is the heat value.

If the average net power of the engine is work over time, considering a net power of 2.5MW for 1 hour (3600s), we can calculate the mass of fuel used in each case.

m=\frac{P\cdot t}{\epsilon H_v}

If we want to calculate the total fuel cost, we only have to multiply the fuel mass with the cost per kilogram.

TC=m\cdot c

Injector orifice patterms and size will affect propellant mixing and distribution. a)-True b)-False
alina1380 [7]

Answer: True

Explanation: Injector orifice is the factor which describes the size of the opening of the injector .There are different pattern and size of the opening for the injector which affects the mixture of the chemical substance that is used for the production of the energy that is known as propellant.

The pattern and size of the orifice will define the variation in the amount of energy that could be produced.Thus the statement given is true.

Match the types of AI to the correct automation tasks.
Maru [420]

Answer:

Theory of Mind : A robotic head has a face that recognizes and simulates emotions.

Self aware : A robot tries to protect itself from harm

Purely Reactive : A door automatically opens when a person steps in front of it.

Limited Memory : A personal assistant software tracks a persons travel routes and suggests shorter routes.

Explanation:

Artificial intelligence is simply a technology which enables automation. It enables system perform task without being explicitly controlled. Purely reactive systems do not store Data in memory, it simply observes what going on at the moment which is what it was programmed to do and takes a step. One the machine detects someone approaching up to a certain distance, it opens.

Limited Memory systems store information about the past and this enhances its Decison making, prediction engines, self driving cars use this kind of artificial intelligence.

Theory of Mind : Here, systems are trained to detect, understand and replicate what is understood. Once the robot identifies an emotion, it replicates it.

Self - Aware : An advanced level of AI, where systems will not only be able to replicate what they see, but also make conscious decisions as to which action to take in different circumstances.
