Answer:

15625 moles of methane is present in this gas deposit

Explanation:

As we know,

PV = nRT

P = Pressure = 230 psia = 1585.79 kPA

V = Volume = 980 cuft = 27750.5 Liters

n = number of moles

R = ideal gas constant = 8.315

T = Temperature = 150°F = 338.706 Kelvin

Substituting the given values, we get -

1585.79 kPA * 27750.5 Liters = n * 8.315 * 338.706 Kelvin

n = (1585.79*27750.5)/(8.315 * 338.706) = 15625

Five bolts are used in the connection between the axial member and the support. The ultimate shear strength of the bolts is 320

lesya [120]

Answer:

The minimum allowable bolt diameter required to support an applied load of P = 450 kN is 45.7 milimeters.

Explanation:

The complete statement of this question is "Five bolts are used in the connection between the axial member and the support. The ultimate shear strength of the bolts is 320 MPa, and a factor of safety of 4.2 is required with respect to fracture. Determine the minimum allowable bolt diameter required to support an applied load of P = 450 kN"

Each bolt is subjected to shear forces. In this case, safety factor is the ratio of the ultimate shear strength to maximum allowable shear stress. That is to say:

$n = \frac{S_{uts}}{\tau_{max}}$

Where:

$n$ - Safety factor, dimensionless.

$S_{uts}$ - Ultimate shear strength, measured in pascals.

$\tau_{max}$ - Maximum allowable shear stress, measured in pascals.

The maximum allowable shear stress is consequently cleared and computed: ( $n = 4.2$ , $S_{uts} = 320\times 10^{6}\,Pa$ )

$\tau_{max} = \frac{S_{uts}}{n}$

$\tau_{max} = \frac{320\times 10^{6}\,Pa}{4.2}$

$\tau_{max} = 76.190\times 10^{6}\,Pa$

Since each bolt has a circular cross section area and assuming the shear stress is not distributed uniformly, shear stress is calculated by:

$\tau_{max} = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{V}{A}$

Where:

$\tau_{max}$ - Maximum allowable shear stress, measured in pascals.

$V$ - Shear force, measured in kilonewtons.

$A$ - Cross section area, measured in square meters.

As connection consist on five bolts, shear force is equal to a fifth of the applied load. That is:

$V = \frac{P}{5}$

$V = \frac{450\,kN}{5}$

$V = 90\,kN$

The minimum allowable cross section area is cleared in the shearing stress equation:

$A = \frac{4}{3}\cdot \frac{V}{\tau_{max}}$

If $V = 90\,kN$ and $\tau_{max} = 76.190\times 10^{3}\,kPa$ , the minimum allowable cross section area is:

$A = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{90\,kN}{76.190\times 10^{3}\,kPa}$

$A = 1.640\times 10^{-3}\,m^{2}$

The minimum allowable cross section area can be determined in terms of minimum allowable bolt diameter by means of this expression:

$A = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}$

The diameter is now cleared and computed:

$D = \sqrt{\frac{4}{\pi}\cdot A}$

$D =\sqrt{\frac{4}{\pi}\cdot (1.640\times 10^{-3}\,m^{2})$

$D = 0.0457\,m$

$D = 45.7\,mm$

The minimum allowable bolt diameter required to support an applied load of P = 450 kN is 45.7 milimeters.

You are the project manager assigned to construct a new 10-story office building. You are trying to estimate the costs for this

Semmy [17]

Answer:

Bottom-up Estimation

Explanation:

Bottom-up estimation is a type of project cost estimation that considers the cost of individual project activities and finally sums them up or finds the aggregates. The summation gives an idea of what the entire project will cost.

This is an effective way of estimating the cost of a project as it evaluates the costs on a wholistic basis. It also considers the tiniest details during the estimation process. The process moves from the simpler details to the more complicated details.

1. Design a circuit, utilizing set/reset coils where PB 1 starts Motor 1 and PB2 stops Motor 1. Pressing and releasing either pu

lianna [129]

Answer:

Circuit attached with explanation

Explanation:

Hi Dear,

A circuit is attached for your reference.

When you press "start" PB, the supply reaches the motor starter relay coil "M" that is also in parallel with the "start" PB which allows the motor to remain ON even when you release "start" PB as supply to relay coil is directly from supply "L" through "M".

To stop motor just press "stop" PB and the circuit breaks which de-energize the relay coil and the motor stops.

Hope this finds easy to you.

A piston-cylinder device contains 0.58 kg of steam at 300°C and 0.5 MPa. Steam is cooled at constant pressure until one-half of

Mumz [18]

Answer:

a) Tբ = 151.8°C

b) ΔV = - 0.194 m³

c) The T-V diagram is sketched in the image attached.

Explanation:

Using steam tables,

At the given pressure of 0.5 MPa, the saturation temperature is the final temperature.

Right from the steam tables (A-5) with a little interpolation, Tբ = 151.793°C

b) The volume change

Using data from A-5 and A-6 of the steam tables,

The volume change will be calculated from the mass (0.58 kg), the initial specific volume (αᵢ) and the final specific volume

(αբ) (which is calculated from the final quality and the consituents of the specific volumes).

ΔV = m(αբ - αᵢ)

αբ = αₗ + q(αₗᵥ) = αₗ + q (αᵥ - αₗ)

q = 0.5, αₗ = 0.00109 m³/kg, αᵥ = 0.3748 m³/kg

αբ = 0.00109 + 0.5(0.3748 - 0.00109)

αբ = 0.187945 m³/kg

αᵢ = 0.5226 m³/kg

ΔV = 0.58 (0.187945 - 0.5226) = - 0.194 m³

c) The T-V diagram is sketched in the image attached
