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

Find the current Lx in the figure
AleksandrR [38]

Explanation:

\frac{1}{8}  +  \frac{1}{2}   \\ 1.6 + 1.4 = 3 \\  \frac{1}{3}  +  \frac{1}{9}   \\ 2.25 + 2 = 4.25 \: ohm

R total = 4.25 ohm

I total = Vt/Rt

I total= 17/4.25= 4 A

Ix= 600 mA

\frac{9}{9 + 3}  \times 4 = 3\\   \frac{2}{2 + 8} \times 3 = 0.6a \\  = 0.6 \: milli \: amper

Assume the work done compressing the He gas is -63 kJ and the internal energy change of the gas is 79 kJ. What is the heat loss
klemol [59]

Answer:

Heat gain of 142 kJ

Explanation:

We can see that job done by compressing the He gas is negative, it means that the sign convention we are going to use is negative for all the work done by the gas and positive for all the job done to the gas. With that being said, the first law of thermodynamics equation will help us to solve this problem.

ΔU = Q + W ⇒ Q = ΔU -W

Q = 79 - (-63) = 142 kJ

Therefore, the gas gained heat by an amount of 142 kJ.

An automated transfer line is to be designed. Based on previous experience, the average downtime per occurrence = 5.0 min, and t
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

a) 28 stations

b) Rp = 21.43

E = 0.5

Explanation:

Given:

Average downtime per occurrence = 5.0 min

Probability that leads to downtime, d= 0.01

Total work time, Tc = 39.2 min

a) For the optimum number of stations on the line that will maximize production rate.

Maximizing Rp =minimizing Tp

Tp = Tc + Ftd

=  \frac{39.2}{n} + (n * 0.01 * 5.0)

= \frac{39.2}{n} + (n * 0.05)

At minimum pt. = 0, we have:

dTp/dn = 0

= \frac{-39.2}{n^2} + 0.05 = 0

Solving for n²:

n^2 = \frac{39.2}{0.05} = 784

n = \sqrt{784} = 28

The optimum number of stations on the line that will maximize production rate is 28 stations.

b) Tp = \frac{39.2}{28} + (28 * 0.01 * 5)

Tp = 1.4 +1.4 = 2.8

The production rate, Rp =

\frac{60min}{2.8} = 21.43

The proportion uptime,

E = \frac{1.4}{2.8} = 0.5
