Find the number of Btu conducted through a wall in 8 hours. The wall is 8 feet high by 24 feet long and has a total R-value of 1

6.2 hr⋅°F⋅ft2 /Btu, including the effects of the inner and outer air layers. The inside temperature is 68°F and the outside temperature is 16°F.

Answer:

ΔQ = 4930.37 BTu

Explanation:

given data

height h = 8ft

Δt = 8 hours

length L = 24 feet

R value = 16.2 hr⋅°F⋅ft² /Btu

inside temperature t1 = 68°F

outside temperature t2 = 16°F

to find out

number of Btu conducted

solution

we get here number of Btu conducted by this expression that s

$\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t} =\frac{-A}{R} (t2 -t1)$ ......................1

here A is area that is = h × L = 8 × 24 = 1492 ft²

put here value we get

$\frac{\Delta Q}{8} =\frac{-192}{16.2} (16-68)$

solve it we get

ΔQ = 4930.37 BTu

The largest tensile force that can be applied to the cables given a rod with diameter 1.5 is 2013.15lb

<h3>The static equilibrium is given as:</h3>

F = P (Normal force)

Formula for moment at section

M = P(4 + 1.5/2)

= 4.75p

Solve for the cross sectional area

Area = $\frac{\pi d^{2} }{4}$

d = 1.5

$\frac{\pi *1.5^{2} }{4}$

= 1.767 inches²

<h3>Solve for inertia</h3>

$\frac{\pi *0.75^4}{4}$

= 0.2485inches⁴

Solve for the tensile force from here

$\frac{F}{A} +\frac{Mc}{I}$

30x10³ = $\frac{P}{1.767} +\frac{4.75p*0.75}{0.2485} \\\\$

30000 = 14.902 p

divide through by 14.902

2013.15 = P

Elanso [62]

Answer:

a). 139498.24 kg

b). 281.85 ohm

c). 10.2 ohm

Explanation:

Given :

Diameter, d = 22 m

Linear strain, $\epsilon$ = 3%

= 0.03

Young's modulus, E = 30 GPa

Gauge factor, k = 6.9

Gauge resistance, R = 340 Ω

a). Maximum truck weight

σ = Eε

σ = $0.03 \times 30 \times 10^9$

$\frac{P}{A} =0.03 \times 30 \times 10^9$

$P = 0.03 \times 30 \times 10^9\times \frac{\pi}{4}\times (0.022)^2$

= 342119.44 N

For the four sensors,

Maximum weight = 4 x P

= 4 x 342119.44

= 1368477.76 N

Therefore, weight in kg is $m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{1368477.76}{9.81}$

m = 139498.24 kg

b). Change in resistance

$k=\frac{\Delta R/R}{\Delta L/L}$

$\Delta R = k. \epsilon R$ , since $\epsilon= \Delta L/ L$

$\Delta R = 6.9 \times 0.03 \times 340$

$\Delta R = 70.38$ Ω

For 4 resistance of the sensors,

$\Delta R = 70.38 \times 4 = 281.52$ Ω

c). $k=\frac{\Delta R/R}{\epsilon}$

If linear strain,

$\frac{\Delta R}{R} \approx \frac{\Delta L}{L}$ , where k = 1

$\Delta R = \frac{\Delta L}{L} \times R$

$\Delta R = 0.03 \times 340$

$\Delta R = 10.2$ Ω
