Answer:

Some fields of engineering that use fluid power are construction, heavy equipment, metallurgy, manufacturing, and oil and gas.

Water supply systems consist of these hydraulic components:

Pipes: Pipes transport water around the system. They are primary feeders (large-diameter pipes), secondary feeders (medium-diameter pipes), and distributors (small-diameter pipes).

Valves: They control the direction of the water flow. Indicating valves convey whether they are open or closed and non-indicating valves do not.

Hydrants: Hydrants appear at periodic intervals along the underground pipe network to provide water for firefighting.

Storage containers: Tanks located at a height provide water when demand is higher than supply. Gravity provides the required water pressure. Pumps can elevate water and refill the tank.

Agricultural equipment: Machines with hydraulic conveyors help transport harvested crops to wagon trailers.

In the construction industry, industrial forklifts lift and transport heavy weights. Hydraulic cylinders can tilt, lower, or elevate the required weight in a smooth motion.

Earth-moving equipment such as excavators have hydraulically powered buckets that can dig up ground, carry soil in the bucket, and drop the soil into trucks.

A 4-L pressure cooker has an operating pressure of 175 kPa. Initially, one-half of the volume is filled with liquid and the othe
vodomira [7]

Answer:

the highest rate of heat transfer allowed is 0.9306 kW

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Volume = 4L = 0.004 m³

V_f = V_g = 0.002 m³

Using Table ( saturated water - pressure table);

at pressure p = 175 kPa;

v_f = 0.001057 m³/kg

v_g = 1.0037 m³/kg

u_f = 486.82 kJ/kg

u_g 2524.5 kJ/kg

h_g = 2700.2 kJ/kg

So the initial mass of the water;

m₁ = V_f/v_f + V_g/v_g

we substitute

m₁ = 0.002/0.001057  + 0.002/1.0037

m₁ = 1.89414 kg

Now, the final mass will be;

m₂ = V/v_g

m₂ = 0.004 / 1.0037

m₂ = 0.003985 kg

Now, mass leaving the pressure cooker is;

m_{out = m₁ - m₂

m_{out = 1.89414  - 0.003985

m_{out = 1.890155 kg

so, Initial internal energy will be;

U₁ = m_fu_f + m_gu_g

U₁ = (V_f/v_f)u_f  + (V_g/v_g)u_g

we substitute

U₁ = (0.002/0.001057)(486.82)  + (0.002/1.0037)(2524.5)

U₁ = 921.135288 + 5.030387

U₁ = 926.165675 kJ

Now, using Energy balance;

E_{in -  E_{out = ΔE_{sys

QΔt - m_{outh_{out = m₂u₂ - U₁

QΔt - m_{outh_g = m₂u_g - U₁

given that time = 75 min = 75 × 60s = 4500 sec

so we substitute

Q(4500) - ( 1.890155 × 2700.2 ) = ( 0.003985 × 2524.5 ) - 926.165675

Q(4500) - 5103.7965 = 10.06013 - 926.165675

Q(4500) = 10.06013 - 926.165675 + 5103.7965

Q(4500) = 4187.690955

Q = 4187.690955 / 4500

Q = 0.9306 kW

Therefore, the highest rate of heat transfer allowed is 0.9306 kW

BE-40 What is a characteristic of a catamaran hull?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

<em>A stable ride</em>

Explanation:

A Catamaran hull is a form of sea craft invented by the Austronesian peoples, the invention of the Catamaran hull enabled these people to sail across the sea in their expansion to the islands of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Catamaran has multiple hulls, usually two parallel hulls of equal size. This geometric feature gives the craft an increased stability because,<em> it derives extra stability from its wide beam, in the place of a ballasted keel employed in a regular monohull sailboat. </em>A Catamaran hull will require four times the force needed to capsize it, when compared to an equivalent monohull.

A homogeneous 800kg bar AB is supported at either end by a cable asshown in the figure
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The smallest area of each cable if the stress is not to exceed 90MPa in bronze is 43.6 mm² and 120MPa in steel is 32.7 mm².

<h3>What is normal stress?</h3>

If the direction of deformation force is perpendicular to the cross-sectional area of ​​the body, the stress is called normal stress. Changes in wire length and body volume will be normal.

σ = P/A

Where, σ = Normal stress

P = Pressure

A = Area

1 Kg = 9.81 N

800 kg = 7848 N

Since the rod is half bronze and half steel

800 kg = 7848/2

= 3924 N

Pₙ = Fₙ = 3924 N                       [n = Bronze]

Pₓ =  3924 N                             [x = steel]

Given,

σₙ = 90MPa

σₓ = 120MPa

Aₙ = ?

Aₓ = ?

Aₙ = Pₙ/σₙ

Aₙ = 3924/90

Aₙ = 43.6 mm²

Aₓ = Pₓ/σₓ

Aₓ = 3924/120

Aₓ = 32.7 mm²
