Answer:

σ =5.39Mpa

Explanation:

step one:

The flexure strength is defined as the tendency with which unreinforced concrete yield to bending forces

Flexural strength test Flexural strength is calculated using the equation:

σ = FL/ (bd^2 )----------1

Where

σ = Flexural strength of concrete in Mpa

F= Failure load (in N).

L= Effective span of the beam

b= Breadth of the beam

step two:

Given data

F=40.45 kN= 40450N

b=0.15m

d=0.15m

L=0.45m

step three:

substituting into the expression we have

σ = 40450*0.45/ (0.15*0.15^2 )

σ =18202.5/ (0.15*0.15^2 )

σ =18202.5/ (0.15*0.0225 )

σ =18202.5/0.003375

σ =5393333.3

σ =5393333.3/1000000

σ =5.39Mpa

Therefore the flexure strength of the concrete is 5.39Mpa

As shown, a load of mass 10 kg is situated on a piston of diameter D1 = 140 mm. The piston rides on a reservoir of oil of depth
telo118 [61]

Answer:

165 mm

Explanation:

The mass on the piston will apply a pressure on the oil. This is:

p = f / A

The force is the weight of the mass

f = m * a

Where a in the acceleration of gravity

A is the area of the piston

A = π/4 * D1^2

Then:

p = m * a / (π/4 * D1^2)

The height the oil will raise is the heignt of a colum that would create that same pressure at its base:

p = f / A

The weight of the column is:

f = m * a

The mass of the column is its volume multiplied by its specific gravity

m  = V * S

The volume is the base are by the height

V = A * h

Then:

p = A * h * S * a / A

We cancel the areas:

p = h * S * a

Now we equate the pressures form the piston and the pil column:

m * a / (π/4 * D1^2) = h * S * a

We simplify the acceleration of gravity

m / (π/4 * D1^2) = h * S

Rearranging:

h = m / (π/4 * D1^2 * S)

Now, h is the heigth above the interface between the piston and the oil, this is at h1 = 42 mm. The total height is

h2 = h + h1

h2 = h1 + m / (π/4 * D1^2 * S)

h2 = 0.042 + 10 / (π/4 * 0.14^2 * 0.8) = 0.165 m = 165 mm

One kilogram of air, initially at 5 bar, 350 K, and 3 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2), initially at 2 bar, 450 K, are confined to opp
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Energy alance of 2 closed systems: Heat from CO2 equals the heat that is added to air in

m_{a} c_{v,a}(T_{eq} -T_{a,i)} =m_{co2} c_{v,co2} (T_{co2,i} -T_{eq)}

1x0.723x(T_{eq} -350)=3x0.780x(450-T_{eq} ) ⇒T_{eq} = 426.4 °K

The initail volumes of the gases can be determined by the ideal gas equation of state,

V_{a,i}  = \frac{mRT_{a,i} }{P_{a,i} }=  \frac{1x (8.314 28.97 kJ kg • °K)x 350°K}{5 bar x 100KPa bar} = 0.201m^{3}

The equilibrium pressure of the gases can also be obtained by the ideal gas equation

P_{eq=\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,eq}+V_{CO2,eq)} } =\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,i}+V_{CO2,i)} }

P_{eq}= 1x(8.314 28.97)x426.4+3x(8.314 44)x426.4

                             (0.201+1.275)

= 246.67 KPa = 2.47 bar

The autorotation spin characteristics of a straight-wing aircraft are induced by Group of answer choices
NemiM [27]

Answer:

More Drag on the down going wing and More Lift on the up going wing

Explanation:

The autorotation spins of blades used in airborne wind energy technology sectors help drive and move the winds and water propeller-type turbines or shafts of generators to produce electricity at altitude and transmit the electricity to earth through conductive tethers.

Sometimes autorotation takes place in rotating parachutes, kite tails. Etc.

As a result, more Drag usually induces the autorotation spin characteristics of a straight-wing aircraft on the downgoing wing and More Lift on the up-going wing.
