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.
Explanation:
For true Strain:
step 1:
E true = Ln(1 + 0.5 ) = 0.40
Step 2:
E true = Ln(1 + 0.33 ) = 0.29
By single step process:
E true = Ln(1 + 1 ) = 0.69
total strain of step process = 0.40 + 0.29 = 0.69 units
SO TRUE STRAIN IS ADDITIVE.
Answer:
True, <em>Regeneration is the only process where increases the efficiency of a Brayton cycle when working fluid leaving the turbine is hotter than working fluid leaving the compressor</em>.
Option: A
<u>Explanation:
</u>
To increase the efficiency of brayton cycle there are three ways which includes inter-cooling, reheating and regeneration. <em>Regeneration</em> technique <em>is used when a turbine exhaust fluids have higher temperature than the working fluid leaving the compressor of the turbine. </em>
<em>Thermal efficiency</em> of a turbine is increased as <em>the exhaust fluid having higher temperatures are used in heat exchanger where the fluids from the compressor enters and increases the temperature of the fluids leaving the compressor.
</em>
Answer:
Technician B is right.
Explanation:
Air conditioning refrigerant contains Freon R22 and R410a, which have been linked to environmental damages, including ozone depletion, global warming, and energy-inefficiency. For environmentally-savvy entities and individuals, there is the modern move to a more environment-friendly refrigerant, known as R-32. Technician A's advice to vent the refrigerant outside the shop is in bad taste. He does not seem to be aware of the environmental footprint of such an action. Venting gas outside, in addition to the environmental damages, is also a waste of resources, and therefore, costly. This is why Technician B's advice should be preferred.
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.
