Answer:

So 1/Rt=1/4+1/4+1/2=4/4 = 1 so Rtotal=1

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

R min = 28.173 ohm

R max = 1.55 × 10^{4}  ohm

Explanation:

given data

capacitor = 0.227 μF

charged to 5.03 V

potential difference across the plates =  0.833 V

handled effectively = 11.5 μs to 6.33 ms

solution

we know that resistance range of the resistor is express as

V(t) = V_o \times e^{t\RC}    ...........1

so R will be

R = \frac{t}{C\times ln(\frac{V_o}{V})}    ....................2

put here value

so for t min 11.5 μs

R = \frac{11.5}{0.227\times ln(\frac{5.03}{0.833})}

R min = 28.173 ohm

and

for t max 6.33 ms

R max = \frac{6.33}{11.5} \times 28.173  

R max = 1.55 × 10^{4}  ohm

A block of ice weighing 20 lb is taken from the freezer where it was stored at -15"F. How many Btu of heat will be required to c
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Heat required =7126.58 Btu.

Explanation:

Given that

Mass m=20 lb

We know that

1 lb =0.45 kg

So 20 lb=9 kg

m=9 kg

Ice at -15° F and we have to covert it at 200° F.

First ice will take sensible heat at up to 32 F then it will take latent heat at constant temperature and temperature will remain 32 F.After that it will convert in water and water will take sensible heat and reach at 200 F.

We know that

Specific heat for ice C_p=2.03\ KJ/kg.K

Latent heat for ice H=336 KJ/kg

Specific heat for ice C_p=4.187\ KJ/kg.K

We know that sensible heat given as

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Heat for -15F to 32 F:

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Q=9\times 2.03(32+15) KJ

Q=858.69 KJ

Heat for 32 Fto 200 F:

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Q=9\times 4.187(200-32) KJ

Q=6330.74 KJ

Total heat=858.69 + 336 +6330.74 KJ

Total heat=7525.43 KJ

We know that 1 KJ=0.947 Btu

So   7525.43 KJ=7126.58 Btu

So heat required to covert ice into water is 7126.58 Btu.

Why or why not the following materials will make good candidates for the construction of
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Explanation:

3.] a] A turbine blade is the individual component which makes up the turbine section of a gas turbine. The blades are responsible for extracting energy from the high temperature, high pressure gas produced by the combustor.

The turbine blades are often the limiting component of gas turbines. To survive in this difficult environment, turbine blades often use exotic materials like superalloys and many different methods of cooling, such as internal air channels, boundary layer cooling, and thermal barrier coatings. The blade fatigue failure is one of the major source of outages in any steam turbines and gas turbines which is due to high dynamic stresses caused by blade vibration and resonance within the operating range of machinery.

To protect blades from these high dynamic stresses, friction dampers are used.

b] Thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are highly advanced materials systems usually applied to metallic surfaces, such as on gas turbine or aero-engine parts, operating at elevated temperatures, as a form ofexhaust heat management.

These 100μm to 2mm coatings serve to insulate components from large and prolonged heat loads by utilizing thermally insulating materials which can sustain an appreciable temperature difference between the load-bearing alloys and the coating surface.

In doing so, these coatings can allow for higher operating temperatures while limiting the thermal exposure of structural components, extending part life by reducing oxidation and thermal fatigue.

In conjunction with active film cooling, TBCs permit working fluid temperatures higher than the melting point of the metal airfoil in some turbine applications.

Due to increasing demand for higher engine operation (efficiency increases at higher temperatures), better durability/lifetime, and thinner coatings to reduce parasitic weight for rotating/moving components, there is great motivation to develop new and advanced TBCs.

An inductor (L = 400 mH), a capacitor (C = 4.43 µF), and a resistor (R = 500 Ω) are connected in series. A 44.0-Hz AC generator
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

(A) Maximum voltage will be equal to 333.194 volt

(B) Current will be leading by an angle 54.70

Explanation:

We have given maximum current in the circuit i_m=385mA=385\times 10^{-3}A=0.385A

Inductance of the inductor L=400mH=400\times 10^{-3}h=0.4H

Capacitance C=4.43\mu F=4.43\times 10^{-3}F

Frequency is given f = 44 Hz

Resistance R = 500 ohm

Inductive reactance will be x_l=\omega L=2\times 3.14\times 44\times 0.4=110.528ohm

Capacitive reactance will be equal to X_C=\frac{1}{\omega C}=\frac{1}{2\times 3.14\times 44\times 4.43\times 10^{-6}}=816.82ohm

Impedance of the circuit will be Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_C-X_L)^2}=\sqrt{500^2+(816.92-110.52)^2}=865.44ohm

So maximum voltage will be \Delta V_{max}=0.385\times 865.44=333.194volt

(B) Phase difference will be given as \Phi =tan^{-1}\frac{X_C-X_L}{R}=\frac{816.92-110.52}{500}=54.70

So current will be leading by an angle 54.70

A carbon resistor has a resistance of 976 ohms at 0 degrees C. Determine its resistance at 89 degrees C​
nignag [31]

Answer:

1028.1184 Ohms

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

  • Initial resistance, Ro = 976 Ohms
  • Initial temperature, T1 = 0°C
  • Final temperature, T2 = 89°C

Assuming the temperature coefficient of resistance for carbon at 0°C is equal to 0.0006 per degree Celsius.

To find determine its new resistance, we would use the mathematical expression for linear resistivity;

R_{89} = R_{0} + R_{0}(\alpha T)

Substituting into the equation, we have;

R_{89} = 976 + 976*(0.0006*89)

R_{89} = 976 + 976*(0.0534)

R_{89} = 976 + 52.1184

R_{89} = 1028.1184 \ Ohms
