Answer: (b)

Explanation:

Given

Original length of the rod is $L=100\ cm$

Strain experienced is $\epsilon=82\%=0.82$

Strain is the ratio of the change in length to the original length

$\Rightarrow \epsilon =\dfrac{\Delta L}{L}\\\\\Rightarrow 0.82=\dfrac{\Delta L}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=82\ cm$

Therefore, new length is given by (Considering the load is tensile in nature)

$\Rightarrow L'=\Delta L+L\\\Rightarrow L'=82+100=182\ cm$

Thus, option (b) is correct.

Design a ductile iron pumping main carrying a discharge of 0.35 m3/s over a distance of 4 km. The elevation of the pumping stati

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

$D=0.41m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Discharge rate $V_r=0.35 m3/s$

Distance $d=4km$

Elevation of the pumping station $h_p= 140 m$

Elevation of the Exit point $h_e= 150 m$

Generally the Steady Flow Energy Equation SFEE is mathematically given by

$h_p=h_e+h$

With

$P_1-P_2$

And

$V_1=V-2$

Therefore

$h=140-150$

$h=10$

Generally h is give as

$h=\frac{0.5LV^2}{2gD}$

$h=\frac{8Q^2fL}{\pi^2 gD^5}$

Therefore

$10=\frac{8Q^2fL}{\pi^2 gD^5}$

$D=^5\frac{8*(0.35)^2*0.003*4000}{3.142^2*9.81*10}$

$D=0.41m$

From your cooling load (8890.007 Btu/hr = 2.605kW, determine mass flow rate of refrigerants. Use the following "rule of thumb" e

NeX [460]

Answer:

0.740833917 ton/hr

Explanation:

Given:

Cooling load, 8890.007 Btu/hr = 2.605 kW

Room size = 180 $ft^{2}$

According to the thumb rule

1 ton of refrigerant = 12000Btu

Hence for 8890.007 Btu/hr,

the mass flow rate of the refrigerant is =8890.007 / 12000

= 0.740833917 ton per hr

Hence, mass flow rate is 0.740833917 ton/hr

How Does A Shoe Box Solar Cooker Work?

Natalija [7]

Answer:

the sun gives off light while at the same time gives off heat. the shoe box cooker takes that heat and light and reflects it around the shoe box. then the heat settles down into whatever is in the shoe box. the heat after being reflected around the shoe box is magnified by the foil wrapped in the box thus allowing the food or drink to be heated. the foil is a conductor of heat because it is metal .
