creativ13 [48]

Answer:

correct option is (A) 0.5

Explanation:

given data

axial column load = 250 kN per meter

footing placed = 0.5 m

cohesion = 25 kPa

internal friction angle = 5°

solution

we know angle of internal friction is 5° that is near to 0°

so it means the soil is almost cohesive soil.

and for a pure cohesive soil

$N_{\gamma }$ = 0

and we know formula for $N_{\gamma }$ is

$N_{\gamma }$ = (Nq - 1 ) × tan(Ф) ..................1

so here Ф is very less $N_{\gamma }$ should be nearest to zero

and its value can be 0.5

so correct option is (A) 0.5

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a little lengthy and tricky, but nevertheless i would give a step by step analysis to make this as simple as possible.

(a). here we are asked to determine the Temperature and Pressure.

Given that the properties of Air;

ha = 230.02 KJ/Kg

Ta = 230 K

Pra = 0.5477

From the energy balance equation for a diffuser;

ha + Va²/2 = h₁ + V₁²/2

h₁ = ha + Va²/2 (where V₁²/2 = 0)

h₁ = 230.02 + 220²/2 ˣ 1/10³

h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg

⇒ now we obtain the properties of air at h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg

from this we have;

Pr₁ = 0.7329 + (0.8405 - 0.7329)[(254.22 - 250.05) / (260.09 - 250.05)]

Pr₁ = 0.77759

therefore T₁ = 254.15K

P₁ = (Pr₁/Pra)Pa

= 0.77759/0.5477 ˣ 26

P₁ = 36.91 kPa

now we calculate Pr₂

Pr₂ = Pr₁ (P₂/P₁) = 0.77759 ˣ 11 = 8.55349

⇒ now we obtain properties of air at

Pr₂ = 8.55349 and h₂ = 505.387 KJ/Kg

calculating the enthalpy of air at state 2

ηc = h₁ - h₂ / h₁ - h₂

0.85 = 254.22 - 505.387 / 254.22 - h₂

h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg

to obtain the properties of air at h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg

T₂ = 545.15 K

⇒ to calculate the pressure of air at state 2

P₂/P₁ = 11

P₂ = 11 ˣ 36.913

p₂ = 406.043 kPa

but pressure of air at state 3 is the same,

i.e. P₂ = P₃ = 406.043 kPa

P₃ = 406.043 kPa

To obtain the properties of air at

T₃ = 1400 K, h₃ = 1515.42 kJ/Kg and Pr = 450.5

for cases of turbojet engine,

we have that work output from turbine = work input to the compressor

Wt = Wr

(h₃ - h₄) = (h₂ - h₁)

h₄ = h₃ - h₂ + h₁

= 1515.42 - 549.71 + 254.22

h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

properties of air at h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

T₄ = 1140 + (1160 - 1140) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

T₄ = 1150.58 K

Pr₄ = 193.1 + (207.2 - 193.1) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

Pr₄ = 200.5636

Calculating the ideal enthalpy of the air at state 4;

Лr = h₃ - h₄ / h₃ - h₄*

0.9 = 1515.42 - 1219.93 / 1515.42 - h₄

h₄* = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

now to obtain the properties of air at h₄⁻ = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

P₄* = 179.7 + (193.1 - 179.7) [(1187.09 -1184.28) / (1207.57 - 1184.28)]

P₄* = 181.316

P₄ = (Pr₄/Pr₃)P₃ i.e. 3-4 isentropic process

P₄ = 181.316/450.5 * 406.043

P₄ = 163.42 kPa

For the 4-5 process;

Pr₅ = (P₅/P₄)Pr₄

Pr₅ = 26/163.42 * 200.56 = 31.9095

to obtain the properties of air at Pr₅ = 31.9095

h₅= 724.04 + (734.82 - 724.04) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

h₅ = 734.09 KJ/Kg

T₅ = 710 + (720 - 710) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

T₅ = 719.32 K

(b) Now we are asked to calculate the rate of heat addition to the air passing through the combustor;

QH = m(h₃-h₂)

QH = 25(1515.42 - 549.71)

QH = 24142.75 kW

(c). To calculate the velocity at the nozzle exit;

we apply steady energy equation of a flow to nozzle

h₄ + V₄²/2 = h₅ + V₅²/2

h₄ + 0 = h₅₅ + V₅²/2

1219.9 ˣ 10³ = 734.09 ˣ 10³ + V₅²/2

therefore, V₅ = 985.74 m/s

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Explanation:

It wouldn't work because the wind energy she would be collecting would actually come from the car engine.

The relative wind velocity observed from a moving vehicle is the sum of the actual wind velocity and the velovity of the vehicle.

u' = u + v

While running a car will generate a rather high wind velocity, and increase the power generated by a wind turbine, the turbine would only be able to convert part of the wind energy into electricity while adding a lot of drag. In the end, it would generate less energy that what the drag casuses the car to waste to move the turbine.

Regenerative braking uses an electric generator connected to the wheel axle to recover part of the kinetic energy eliminated when one brakes the vehicle. Normal brakes dissipate this energy as heat, a regenerative brake uses it to recharge a batttery. Note that is is a fraction of the energy that is recovered, not all of it.

A "regenerative accelerator" makes no sense. Braking is taking kinetic energy out of the vehicle, while accelerating is adding kinetic energy to it. Cars accelerate using the power from their engines.
