There are three options for heating a particular house: a. Gas: $1.33/therm where 1 therm=105,500 kJ b. Electric Resistance: $0.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

Explanation:

Cheapest method of heating must have least cost per kj of energy. So, convert all the energy in the same unit (say kj) and take select the cheapest method to heat the house.

Given:

Three methods are given to heat a particular house are as follows:

Method (a)

Through Gas, this gives energy of amount $1.33/therm.

Method (b)

Through electric resistance, this gives energy of amount $0.12/KWh.

Method (c)

Through oil, this gives energy of amount $2.30/gallon.

Calculation:

Step1

Change therm to kj in method ‘a’ as follows:

$C_{1}=\frac{\$ 1.33}{therm}\times(\frac{1therm}{105500kj})$

$C_{1}=1.2606\times10^{-5}$ $/kj.

Step2

Change kWh to kj in method ‘b’ as follows:

$C_{2}=\frac{\$ 0.12}{kWh}\times(\frac{1 kWh }{3600kj})$

$C_{2}=3.334\times10^{-5}$ $/kj.

Step3

Change kWh to kj in method ‘c’ as follows:

$C_{3}=\frac{\$ 2.30}{gallon}\times(\frac{1 gallon }{138500kj})$

$C_{3}=1.66\times10^{-5}$ $/kj.

Thus, the method ‘a’ has least cost as compare to method b and c.

So, option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

What is the pressure at the bottom of a 25 ft volume of hydraulic fluid with a weight density of 55 lb/ft3 a. 114.6 psi b. 1375p

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

d) 9.55 psi

Explanation:

pressure at the bottom is =ρgh

weight density is ρg=55 lb/ft³

h=25ft

pressure at the bottom is = $55\times 25$

=1375psf

1 ft = 12 inch

pressure at bottom = $\frac{1375}{12^2}$

= 9.55 psi

so, answer will be option (d) which is 9.55 psi

A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine has a bore of 3.7 in. and a stroke of 3.4 in. The clearance volume is 16

Bad White [126]

Answer:

the net work per cycle $\mathbf{W_{net} = 0.777593696}$ Btu per cycle

the power developed by the engine, W = 88.0144746 hp

Explanation:

the information given includes;

diameter of the four-cylinder bore = 3.7 in

length of the stroke = 3.4 in

The clearance volume = 16% = 0.16

The cylindrical volume $V_2 = 0.16 V_1$

the crankshaft N rotates at a speed of 2400 RPM.

At the beginning of the compression , temperature $T_1$ = 60 F = 519.67 R

and;

Otto cycle with a pressure = 14.5 lbf/in² = (14.5 × 144 ) lb/ft²

= 2088 lb/ft²

The maximum temperature in the cycle is 5200 R

From the given information; the change in volume is:

$V_1-V_2 = \dfrac{\pi}{4}D^2L$

$V_1-0.16V_1= \dfrac{\pi}{4}(3.7)^2(3.4)$

$V_1-0.16V_1= 36.55714291$

$0.84 V_1 =36.55714291$

$V_1 =\dfrac{36.55714291}{0.84 }$

$V_1 =43.52040823 \ in^3 \\ \\ V_1 = 43.52 \ in^3$

$V_1 = 0.02518 \ ft^3$

the mass in air ( lb) can be determined by using the formula:

$m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT}$

where;

R = 53.3533 ft.lbf/lb.R°

$m = \dfrac{2088 \ lb/ft^2 \times 0.02518 \ ft^3}{53.3533 \ ft .lbf/lb.^0R \times 519 .67 ^0 R}$

m = 0.0018962 lb

From the tables of ideal gas properties at Temperature 519.67 R

$v_{r1} =158.58$

$u_1 = 88.62 Btu/lb$

At state of volume 2; the relative volume can be determined as:

$v_{r2} = v_{r1} \times \dfrac{V_2}{V_1}$

$v_{r2} = 158.58 \times 0.16$

$v_{r2} = 25.3728$

The specific energy $u_2$ at $v_{r2} = 25.3728$ is 184.7 Btu/lb

From the tables of ideal gas properties at maximum Temperature T = 5200 R

$v_{r3} = 0.1828$

$u_3 = 1098 \ Btu/lb$

To determine the relative volume at state 4; we have:

$v_{r4} = v_{r3} \times \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}$

$v_{r4} =0.1828 \times \dfrac{1}{0.16}$

$v_{r4} =1.1425$

The specific energy $u_4$ at $v_{r4} =1.1425$ is 591.84 Btu/lb

Now; the net work per cycle can now be calculated as by using the following formula:

$W_{net} = Heat \ supplied - Heat \ rejected$

$W_{net} = m(u_3-u_2)-m(u_4 - u_1)$

$W_{net} = m(u_3-u_2- u_4 + u_1)$

$W_{net} = m(1098-184.7- 591.84 + 88.62)$

$W_{net} = 0.0018962 \times (1098-184.7- 591.84 + 88.62)$

$W_{net} = 0.0018962 \times (410.08)$

$\mathbf{W_{net} = 0.777593696}$ Btu per cycle

the power developed by the engine, in horsepower. can be calculated as follows;

In the four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine; the power developed by the engine can be calculated by using the expression:

$W = 4 \times N' \times W_{net$

where ;

$N' = \dfrac{2400}{2}$

N' = 1200 cycles/min

N' = 1200 cycles/60 seconds

N' = 20 cycles/sec

W = 4 × 20 cycles/sec × 0.777593696

W = 62.20749568 Btu/s

W = 88.0144746 hp

Calculate the volume of a hydraulic accumulator capable of delivering 5 liters of oil between 180 and 80 bar, using as a preload

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1) $V_o = 10 liters$

2) $V_o = 12.26 liters$

Explanation:

For isothermal process n =1

$V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{(\frac{p_o}{p_1})^{1/n} -(\frac{p_o}{p_2})^{1/n}}$

$V_o = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1}}$

$V_o = 10 liters$

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

$\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25$

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.03

$actual \ volume = c1\times 10 = 10.3 liters$

b) for adiabatic process

n =1.4

volume of hydraulic accumulator is given as

$V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{[\frac{p_o}{p_1}]^{1/n} -[\frac{p_o}{p_2}]^{1/n}}$

$V_o = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1.4} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1.4}}$

$V_o = 12.26 liters$

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

$\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25$

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.15

$actual \volume = c1\times 10 = 11.5 liters$
