Tolerance is the acceptable amount of dimensional variation that still allows a part to perform as designed.
Any process will have variation and depending on the severity of the function some tolerance will be very small. For example the sheet metal thickness on portion of a space shuttle will have a much tighter tolerance than the thickness of a piece of lumber to build a house. Tighter tolerance of processes typically are related to more process control (e.g. money) thus designs should be fully vetted with process team before placing on a drawing.
Explanation:
The tear test determines the force required by a material to undergo complete failure when there is already a crack or tear present in it.
With this test we understand a material's resistance to failure when there is already a crack present.
The material which already has a crack is placed in a tensile testing or universal test machine. So, both sides of the material along the crack are pulled until material failure takes place.
Answer:
The inventor's claim is false in the sense that no thermal machine can violate the first thermodynamic law.
Explanation:
The inventor's claim could not be possible as no thermal machine can transfer more heat than the input work consumed. If we expose the thermal efficiency:
Where Q and W both must be in the same power unit, so we will convert the remove heat from BTU/hr to hp:
Therefore by comparing, we notice that the removing heat of 4.75 hp is large than the delivered work of 1.11 hp. By evaluating the efficiency:
[tex]n=4.75 hp / 1.1 hp = 4.3 > 1[/tex]
Answer:
a) Zero
b) the rate of entropy generation in the system's universe = ds/dt = 0.2603 KW/K
Explanation:
a) In steady state
Net rate of Heat transfer = net rate of heat gain - net rate of heat lost
Hence, the rate of heat transfer = 0
b) In steady state, entropy generated
ds/dt = - [ Qgain/Th1 + Qgain/Th2 - Qlost/300 K]
Substituting the given values, we get –
ds/dt = -[5/1500 + 3/1000 – (5+3)/300]
ds/dt = - [0.0033 + 0.003 -0.2666]
ds/dt = 0.2603 KW/K
Answer:
1) This is because too much fuel is needed to get a payload from the surface to orbital altitude an accelerated to orbital speed.
2) This is because space travel present extreme environment that affect machines operations and survival.
