Pipelines are a useful means of transporting oil because they offer low maintenance and dependable transportation for a narrow but important range of products.
<h3>What is a pipeline?</h3>
A pipeline is a system of connected pipelines that can be either underground or out in the environment. These pipelines are used to transport or distribute water, gas, and oil.
The options are attached
a. Pipelines provide jobs for consumers because of the resurgence of exploration and drilling in North America.
b. Pipelines are versatile, carrying more ton-miles than any other mode of transport over more than 2 million miles of pipeline.
c. Pipelines have more locations than water carriers.
d. Pipelines offer low maintenance and dependable transportation for a narrow but important range of products.
Thus, the correct option is d. Pipelines offer low maintenance and dependable transportation for a narrow but important range of products.

Explanation:
Step1
In the stress-strain curve of any material, the yield stress is the maximum stress at which material starts yielding.
Step2
Young’s modulus is the constant of proportionality of stress and strain according to hooks law. It is the slope of the slope of the stress-strain curve of the any material under proportional limit.
Step3
Ultimate tensile stress is the maximum stress that induced in the material under application of load.
Step4
Toughness is the strain energy per unit volume up to the fracture point of the stress-strain diagram of any material. This is the area under the curve of stress-strain.
Step5
Point of necking is the point where any material starts necking under application of load in necking region of the stress-strain curve.
Step6
Fracture point is the last point of the stress-strain curve where component fractures under application of load.
All the parameters are shown in below stress-strain curve:
Answer:
a) 5.2 kPa
b) 49.3%
Explanation:
Given data:
Thermal efficiency ( л ) = 56.9% = 0.569
minimum pressure ( P1 ) = 100 kpa
<u>a) Determine the pressure at inlet to expansion process</u>
P2 = ?
r = 1.4
efficiency = 1 - [ 1 / (rp)
]
0.569 = 1 - [ 1 / (rp)^0.4/1.4
1 - 0.569 = 1 / (rp)^0.285
∴ (rp)^0.285 = 0.431
rp = 0.0522
note : rp = P2 / P1
therefore P2 = rp * P1 = 0.0522 * 100 kpa
= 5.2 kPa
b) Thermal efficiency
Л = 1 - [ 1 / ( 10.9 )^0.285 ]
= 0.493 = 49.3%
