According to one government agency, bad housekeeping is estimated to cause what percentage

A 400-m^3 storage tank is being constructed to hold LNG, liquefied natural gas, which may be assumed to be essentially pure meth

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

mass of LNG: 129501.3388 kg

quality: 0.005048662

Explanation:

Volume occupied by liquid:

400 m^3*0.9 = 360 m^3

Volume occupied by vapor

400 m^3*0.1 = 40 m^3

A figured with thermodynamic properties of saturated methane is attached. Notice that a liquid-gas mixture is present

For liquid phase specific volume (vf) at 150 K is 0.002794 m^3/kg and for vapor phase specific volume (vg) is 0.06118 m^3/kg

From specific volume definition:

vf = liquid volume/liquid mass

liquid mass = liquid volume/vf

liquid mass = 360 m^3/0.002794 m^3/kg

liquid mass = 128847.5304 kg

vg = vapor volume/vapor mass

vapor mass = liquid volume/vg

vapor mass = 40 m^3/0.06118 m^3/kg

vapor mass = 653.8084341 kg

total mass = 128847.5304 kg + 653.8084341 kg = 129501.3388 kg

Quality is defined as the ratio between vapor mass and total mass

quality = 653.8084341 kg/129501.3388 kg = 0.005048662

What is engine knock? What cause the engine knock problem?

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

When the uneven burning of the fuel takes place due to the incorrect air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder, a knocking sound is observed. This is called as the engine knocking.

Explanation:

When the uneven burning of the fuel takes place due to the incorrect air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder, a knocking sound is observed. This is called as the engine knocking.

The engine knock problem can be caused due to the following reason

a) When the octane rating of the fuel used is low.

b) The deposition of the carbon around the cylinder walls takes place.

c) The spark plug used in the vehicle is not correct.

A carbon resistor has a resistance of 976 ohms at 0 degrees C. Determine its resistance at 89 degrees C

nignag [31]

Answer:

1028.1184 Ohms

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Initial resistance, Ro = 976 Ohms
Initial temperature, T1 = 0°C
Final temperature, T2 = 89°C

Assuming the temperature coefficient of resistance for carbon at 0°C is equal to 0.0006 per degree Celsius.

To find determine its new resistance, we would use the mathematical expression for linear resistivity;

$R_{89} = R_{0} + R_{0}(\alpha T)$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$R_{89} = 976 + 976*(0.0006*89)$

$R_{89} = 976 + 976*(0.0534)$

$R_{89} = 976 + 52.1184$

$R_{89} = 1028.1184 \ Ohms$

A closed, rigid tank is lled with a gas modeled as an ideal gas, initially at 27°C and a gage pressure of 300 kPa. The gas is he

sergejj [24]

Answer:

T₂ =93.77 °C

Explanation:

Initial temperature ,T₁ =27°C= 273 +27 = 300 K

We know that

Absolute pressure = Gauge pressure + Atmospheric pressure

Initial pressure ,P₁ = 300+1=301 kPa

Final pressure ,P₂= 367+1 = 368 kPa

Lets take temperature=T₂

We know that ,If the volume of the gas is constant ,then we can say that

$\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}=\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}$

${T_2}=T_1\times \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}$

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

${T_2}=300\times \dfrac{368}{301}\ K$

The temperature in °C

T₂ = 366.77 - 273 °C

T₂ =93.77 °C

The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E and F. The b

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a) P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) Q = 5.4 Kips

Explanation:

GIven

W = 18 Kips

μ₁ = 0.30

μ₂ = 0.60

a) P = ?

We get F₁ and F₂ as follows:

F₁ = μ₁*W = 0.30*18 Kips = 5.4 Kips

F₂ = μ₂*Nef = 0.6*Nef

Then, we apply

∑Fy = 0 (+↑)

Nef*Cos 12º - F₂*Sin 12º = W

⇒ Nef*Cos 12º - (0.6*Nef)*Sin 12º = 18

⇒ Nef = 21.09 Kips

Wedge moves if

P ≥ F₁ + F₂*Cos 12º + Nef*Sin 12º

⇒ P ≥ 5.4 Kips + 0.6*21.09 Kips*Cos 12º + 21.09 Kips*Sin 12º

⇒ P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) For the static equilibrium of base plate

Q = F₁ = 5.4 Kips

We can see the pic shown in order to understand the question.
