Answer:

a) 1

b) 1813.96 MJ/kmol

c) 32.43 MJ/kg ,  1980.39 MJ/Kmol

Explanation:

molar mass of  ethanol (C2H5OH) = 46 g/mol

molar mass of   octane (C8H18) = 114 g/mol

therefore the moles of ethanol and octane

ethanol =  0.85 / 46

octane = 0.15 / 114

a) determine the molar air-fuel ratio and air-fuel ratio by mass

attached below

mass of air / mass of fuel = 12.17 / 1 = 12.17

b ) Determine the lower heating value

LHV  of  ( C2H5OH) = 26.8 * 46 = 1232.8 MJ/kmol

LHV  of (C8H18). = 44.8 mj/kg * 114 kg/kmol = 5107.2 MJ/Kmol

LHV ( MJ/kmol)  for fuel mixture = 0.85 * 1232.8 + 0.15 * 5107.2 = 1813.96 MJ/kmol

c) Determine higher heating value  ( HHV )

HHV of (C2H5OH) = 29.7 * 46 = 1366.2 MJ/kmol

HHV of C8H18 = 47.9 MJ/kg * 114 = 5460.6 MJ/kmol

HHV  in MJ/kg  = 0.85 * 29.7 + 0.15 * 47.9  = 32.43 MJ/kg

HHV in  MJ /kmol  =  0.85 * 1366.2 + 0.15 * 5460.8 = 1980.39 MJ/Kmol

ki77a [65]

Ability to recognize words and understand vocabulary

Answer: Option 2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reading comprehension is the capacity to process content, comprehend its significance, and to incorporate with what the peruser definitely knows. Capacity to grasp content is affected by perusers' aptitudes and their capacity to process data.

For the students reading comprehension problems frequently include troubles in perceiving and suitably applying foundation information, poor disentangling and word acknowledgment abilities, restricted jargon information, immature understanding familiarity, a not exactly key way to deal with cognizance.

You hang a heavy ball with a mass of 42 kg from a silver rod 2.7 m long by 1.9 mm by 2.6 mm. You measure the stretch of the rod,
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Explanation:

cross sectional area  A = 1.9 x 2.6 x 10⁻⁶ m²

= 4.94 x 10⁻⁶ m²

stress = 42 x 9.8 / 4.94 x 10⁻⁶

= 83.32 x 10⁶ N/m²

strain = .002902 / 2.7

= 1.075 x 10⁻³

Young's modulus = stress / strain

= 83.32 x 10⁶ / 1.075 x 10⁻³

= 77.5 x 10⁹ N/m²

2. A trapezoidal channel has a bottom width of 4 m and side slopes of 2:1 (H:V). If the flow rate is 50 m3/s at a depth of 3.6 m
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sum of the side slope = 2 + 1 = 3

Length of first slope = 2/3 X 3.6 = 2 X 1.2 = 2.4m

Lenght of second slope = 1/3 X 3.6 = 1.2m

Area of the trapezoidal channel = (2.4 + 1.2)/2 X 3.6 = 1.8 X 3.6 = 6.48m²

Alternate dept = 50m³/6.48m²= 7.716m
