How does the local economy influence behavior?

1 answer:

3 0

For the general public, the main impact is the cost of living. The economy has a direct impact on our spending ability. An economic recession generally leads to an increased cost of living. ... The countries currency is also generally affected during a recession, which contributes to inflation of prices.

A 600-MW steam power plant, which is cooled by a nearby river, has a thermal efficiency of 54 percent. Determine the rate of hea

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

$\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW$ . Heat transfer can be higher if themal efficiency is lower.

Explanation:

The heat transfer rate to the river water is calculated by this expression:

$\dot Q_{L} = \dot Q_{H} - \dot W$

$\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{\eta_{th}}-1 )\cdot \dot W\\\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{0.54}-1)\cdot (600 MW)\\\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW$

The actual heat transfer can be higher if the steam power plant reports an thermal efficiency lower than expected.

Match the test to the property it measures.

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

a. Rockwell 3. hardness

b. Instron 2. stress vs strain

c. Charpy 1. impact strength

d. Fatigue 4. Endurance Limit

e. Brinell 3. hardness

f. Izod 1. impact strength

Explanation:

Izod and Charpy are the impact strength testing procedure of a material in which a heavy hammer is attached to an arm is released to impact on the test specimen. In Izod test the specimen with v-notch is held vertical with the notch facing outward while in Charpy test the specimen is supported horizontally with notch facing inward to the impacting hammer.

Instron testing system does universal testing of the material which gradually applies the load recording all the stresses and the corresponding strains until the material fails.

Fatigue is the property of a material due to which it fails under the repeated cyclic loading by the initiation and propagation of cracks. The property of a material resist failure subjected to infinite number of repeated cyclic loads below a certain stress limit.

Rockwell and Brinell are the hardness testing methods. In Rockwell test an intender ball is firstly pressed against the specimen using minor load for a certain time and then a major load is pressed against it for a certain time. After the intender is removed the depth of impression on the surface is measured while in case of Brinell hardness we apply only one load against the intender ball for a certain time and after its removal the radius of impression is measured.

If the head loss in a 30 m of length of a 75-mm-diameter pipe is 7.6 m for a given flow rate of water, what is the total drag fo

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

526.5 KN

Explanation:

The total head loss in a pipe is a sum of pressure head, kinetic energy head and potential energy head.

But the pipe is assumed to be horizontal and the velocity through the pipe is constant, Hence the head loss is just pressure head.

h = (P₁/ρg) - (P₂/ρg) = (P₁ - P₂)/ρg

where ρ = density of the fluid and g = acceleration due to gravity

h = ΔP/ρg

ΔP = ρgh = 1000 × 9.8 × 7.6 = 74480 Pa

Drag force over the length of the pipe = Dynamic pressure drop over the length of the pipe × Area of the pipe that the fluid is in contact with

Dynamic pressure drop over the length of the pipe = ΔP = 74480 Pa

Area of the pipe that the fluid is in contact with = 2πrL = 2π × (0.075/2) × 30 = 7.069 m²

Drag Force = 74480 × 7.069 = 526468.1 N = 526.5 KN
