1. A pipeline constructed of carbon steel failed after 3 years of operation. On examination it was found that the wall thickness

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

check the explanation

Explanation:

Thickness Loss = $t =\frac{t_{o}-t_{i}}{2} = \frac{114.3-102.3}{2} = 2mm$

$t_{f} = \frac{1}{2}*6 = 3mm$

Hence Rate of Corrosion = $6*\frac{1-0.5}{3} = 1mm/year$ = 0.03 inches per year

As the expected future life is 7 years,

40 carbon steel pipe has to be replaced every 3 years as given in the question,

Cost per unit length is the sum of material cost and installation cost.

Cost of 40 carbon steel = (5 dollars + 16.5 dollars) * 3 = 64.5 dollars

For 80 carbon steel pipe, first calculate the thickness loss,

$\frac{114.3-97.2}{2} = 8.55mm$

The critical thickness is given to be 3mm, Hence change in thickness is 8.55-3 = 5.5mm

This 80 carbon steel pipe has to be replaced one more time

Hence, Cost per unit length is the sum of material cost and installation cost.

Cost of 80 carbon steel = (8.3 dollars + 16.5 dollars) * 2 = 49.6 dollars

The best is of stainless steel which does not undergo corrosion at all and thus it needs to be replaced only once throughout the plant operation. Its cost = 24.8 dollars + 16.5 dollars = 41.3 dollars

Hence, stainless steel is the recommended pipe to be used.

The advantages of solar cells include all of the following, except a.moderate net energy yield b.little or no direct emissions o

Xelga [282]

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the disadvantages of solar cells is that electricity storage systems are not readily available. Excess energy generated by the solar panels are wasted except they are stored by solar batteries for later use. There are various systems for storing electricity from solar cells apart from solar batteries which is the common storage system. An example of another electricity storage system for solar cell is using the water electrolyzer to store solar energy which can be used to later generate hydroelectricity.

Advantages of a solar cell includes Renewable energy, Economy-friendly and environmental-friendly energy and good durability

What is the best countermeasure against social engineering?

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Hello Monk7294!

Answer:

Employee education

Explanation:

The most important countermeasure for social engineering is employee education. All the employees should be trained to keep confidential data safe. As a part of security education, organizations have to provide timely orientation about their security policy to new employees. The security policy should address the consequences of the breaches.

A completely reversible heat pump produces heat ata rate of 300 kW to warm a house maintained at 24°C. Theexterior air, which is

Triss [41]

Answer:

Change in entropy S = 0.061

Second law of thermodynamics is satisfied since there is an increase in entropy

Explanation:

Heat Q = 300 kW

T2 = 24°C = 297 K

T1 = 7°C = 280 K

Change in entropy =

S = Q(1/T1 - 1/T2)

= 300(1/280 - 1/297) = 0.061

There is a positive increase in entropy so the second law is satisfied.
