Answer:

Depletes Fossil Fuels
Polution

Explanation:

Fossil Fuels take millions of years to be made. Gasoline is made up of primarily petroleum (a fossil fuel) which is easily refined into gasoline or kerosene. This means that once you run out of a fossil fuel...you're out of it.

Gas cars are also very big polutants. If you've ever heard of an emmisions test for a car, it is a test that sees how much pollution a car puts out into the air. It meassures how safe those levels are. This is a big indicator of how much cars pollute becasue there is a need to test your car every year. The gases that can be put into the air are harmful not only to humans and animals but to the climate and atmosphere.

The steady-state data listed below are claimed for a power cycle operating between hot and cold reservoirs at 1200K and 400K, re

Anni [7]

Answer:

a) W_cycle = 200 KW , n_th = 33.33 % , Irreversible

b) W_cycle = 600 KW , n_th = 100 % , Impossible

c) W_cycle = 400 KW , n_th = 66.67 % , Reversible

Explanation:

Given:

- The temperatures for hot and cold reservoirs are as follows:

TL = 400 K

TH = 1200 K

Find:

For each case W_cycle , n_th ( Thermal Efficiency ) :

(a) QH = 600 kW, QC = 400 kW

(b) QH = 600 kW, QC = 0 kW

- Determine whether the cycle operates reversibly, operates irreversibly, or is impossible.

Solution:

- The work done by the cycle is given by first law of thermodynamics:

W_cycle = QH - QC

- For categorization of cycle is given by second law of thermodynamics which states that:

n_th < n_max ...... irreversible

n_th = n_max ...... reversible

n_th > n_max ...... impossible

- Where n_max is the maximum efficiency that could be achieved by a cycle with Hot and cold reservoirs as follows:

n_max = 1 - TL / TH = 1 - 400/1200 = 66.67 %

And, n_th = W_cycle / QH

a) QH = 600 kW, QC = 400 kW

- The work done by cycle according to First Law is:

W_cycle = 600 - 400 = 200 KW

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle is given by n_th:

n_th = W_cycle / QH

n_th = 200 / 600 = 33.33 %

- The type of process according to second Law of thermodynamics:

n_th = 33.333 % n_max = 66.67 %

n_th < n_max

Hence, Irreversible Process

b) QH = 600 kW, QC = 0 kW

- The work done by cycle according to First Law is:

W_cycle = 600 - 0 = 600 KW

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle is given by n_th:

n_th = W_cycle / QH

n_th = 600 / 600 = 100 %

- The type of process according to second Law of thermodynamics:

n_th = 100 % n_max = 66.67 %

n_th > n_max

Hence, Impossible Process

c) QH = 600 kW, QC = 200 kW

- The work done by cycle according to First Law is:

W_cycle = 600 - 200 = 400 KW

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle is given by n_th:

n_th = W_cycle / QH

n_th = 400 / 600 = 66.67 %

- The type of process according to second Law of thermodynamics:

n_th = 66.67 % n_max = 66.67 %

n_th = n_max

Hence, Reversible Process

Describe the greatest power in design according to Aravena?

Ann [662]

Answer: Describe the greatest power in design according to Aravena? The subject of Aravena’s recent Futuna Lecture Series in New Zealand was ‘the power of design,’ which he described as ultimately being “the power of synthesis” because, increasingly, architects are dealing with complex issues and problems.

What are the three problems with global urbanization? 1. Degraded Environmental Quality ...

2. Overcrowding ...

3. Housing Problems ...

4. Unemployment ...

5. Development of Slums...

How could you use synthesis in your life to solve problems? Hence, synthesis is often not a one-time process of solution design but is used in combination with problem understanding and solution analysis to progress towards a more complete understanding of problems and solutions over time (see Applying the Systems Approach topic for a more complete discussion of the dynamics of this aspect of the approach).

Problem 34.3 The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E

Natasha2012 [34]

The image is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

A) P = 65.11 KN

B) Q = 30 KN

Explanation:

We are given;

The end reaction of the beam; F = 100KN

Coefficient of static friction between two steel surfaces;μ_ss = 0.3

Coefficient of static friction between steel and concrete;μ_sc = 0.6

So, F1 = μ_ss•F =0.3 x 100 = 30 KN

F2 = μ_ss•N_EF = 0.3N_EF

From the screen shot, we see that the angle is 12°

Sum of forces in the Y-direction gives;

F2•sin12 - N_EF•cos12 + 100 = 0

Rearranging gives;

N_EF•cos12 - F2•sin12 = 100

Let's put 0.3N_EF for F2 to give;

N_EF•cos12 - 0.3N_EF•sin12 = 100

Thus;

N_EF(0.9158) - 0.1247 = 100

N_EF(0.9781) = 100 + 0.1247

N_EF = 100.1247/0.9158

N_EF = 109.33 KN

Thus, F2 = 0.3N_EF = 0.3 x 109.33 = 32.8 KN

Wedge will move if;

P = (F1 + F2cos12 + N_EFsin12)

Thus;

P = 10 + (32.8 x 0.9781) + (109.33 x 0.2079)

P ≥ 65.11 KN

B) For static equilibrium, Q = F1

Thus, Q = 30 KN

What are the advantages of studying a scheduled course over a more freeform one?

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Taking responsibility for your own learning makes it easier to identify your strengths and weaknesses. Once these have been identified you can work on a learning plan that focuses on the areas that you need most help with, increasing the speed of your learning, and build the skills you have been trying to perfect.
