You have been assigned to design an open cylindrical storage tank 4 meters tall with a diameter of 8 meters to be made out of A-

Katen [24]

Answer:

The required wall thickness is $1.506 \times 10^{-3}$ m

Explanation:

Given:

Fluid density $\rho = 1200$ $\frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

Diameter of tank $d = 8$ m

Length of tank $l = 4$ m

F.S = 4

For A-36 steel yield stress $\sigma = 250$ MPa,

Allowable stress $\sigma _{allow} = \frac{\sigma}{F.S}$

$\sigma _{allow} = \frac{250}{4} = 62.5$ MPa

Pressure force is given by,

$P = \rho gh$

$P = 1200 \times 9.8 \times 4$

$P = 47088$ Pa

Now for a vertical pipe,

$\sigma _{allow} = \frac{Pd}{4t}$

Where $t =$ required thickness

$t = \frac{Pd}{4 \sigma _{allow} }$

$t = \frac{47088 \times 8 }{4 \times 62.5 \times 10^{6} }$

$t = 1.506 \times 10^{-3}$ m

Therefore, the required wall thickness is $1.506 \times 10^{-3}$ m

An amplifier with 40 dB of small-signal, open-circuit voltage gain, an input resistance of 1 MO, and an output resistance of 100

Vanyuwa [196]

convert 40db to standard gain

AL=10^40/20=100

calculate total voltage gain

=AL×RL/RL+Ri

=83.33

38.41 DB

calculate power

Pi=Vi^2/Ri Po=Vo^2/RL

power gain= Po/Pi

=13.90×10^6

What are the four categories of engineering materials used in manufacturing?

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.

Explanation:

The four categories of engineering materials used in manufacturing are metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.

i) Metals: Metals are solids made up of atoms held by matrix of electrons. They are good conductors of heat and electricity, ductile and strong.

ii) Composite: This is a combination of two or more materials. They have high strength to weight ratio, stiff, low conductivity. E.g are wood, concrete.

iii) Ceramics: They are inorganic, non-metallic crystalline compounds with high hardness and strength as well as poor conductors of electricity and heat.

iv) Polymers: They have low weight and are poor conductors of electricity and heat

How does a motion sensor work?

Ahat [919]

Answer:

A motion sensor uses one or multiple technologies to detect movement in an area. When a sensor detects motion, it sends a signal to your security systems control panel, which connects to your monitoring panel system. This alerts you and the monitoring center to a potential threat in your home.
