Answer:Mechanical Engineers
Explanation: Mechanical engineering is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering branches.
Answer: a) 0.948 b) 117.5µf
Explanation:
Given the load, a total of 2.4kw and 0.8pf
V= 120V, 60 Hz
P= 2.4 kw, cos θ= 80
P= S sin θ - (p/cos θ) sin θ
= P tan θ(cos^-1 (0.8)
=2.4 tan(36.87)= 1.8KVAR
S= 2.4 + j1. 8KVA
1 load absorbs 1.5 kW at 0.707 pf lagging
P= 1.5 kW, cos θ= 0.707 and θ=45 degree
Q= Ptan θ= tan 45°
Q=P=1.5kw
S1= 1.5 +1.5j KVA
S1 + S2= S
2.4+j1.8= 1.5+1.5j + S2
S2= 0.9 + 0.3j KVA
S2= 0.949= 18.43 °
Pf= cos(18.43°) = 0.948
b.) pf to 0.9, a capacitor is needed.
Pf = 0.9
Cos θ= 0.9
θ= 25.84 °
(WC) V^2= P (tan θ1 - tan θ2)
C= 2400 ( tan (36. 87°) - tan (25.84°)) /2 πf × 120^2
f=60, π=22/7
C= 117.5µf
Answer:
23.06262m^3/s
Explanation:
The volume flow rate of the water is determined from the needed power output and the elevation difference:
Where, height (h) =221m, power(w)=50MW=50*10^6w
Density of water (ρ)=1000kg/m^3
Efficiency of turbine(η)=100%=1
V=W/ρηgh
=50*10^6m^3/(1)*(1000)*(9.81)*(221)s=23.06262m^3/s
Answer:
- F1.x ≈ -28.93
- F1.y ≈ 34.47
- F2.x = 70
- F2.y = 0
- (F1+F2).x ≈ 41.07
- (F1+F2).y ≈ 34.47
- |F1+F2| ≈ 53.62
- ∠(F1+F2) ≈ 40.0°
Explanation:
A suitable calculator can show you the vector components and their resultant in polar or rectangular format. (See attached.) 2D vectors are conveniently treated as complex numbers, which is why the y-component values are shown as imaginary.
(The 50° angle measured from the -x axis is equivalent to 130° measured from the +x axis, which is the reference we're using here.)
If you'd like to compute the vector components by hand, they are ...
(x, y) = magnitude×(cos(angle), sin(angle))
This notation is sometimes abbreviated <em>magnitude cis angle</em>, a reference to the complex number form x+yi.
Answer:
vertical load = 10 kN
Modulus of elasticity = 200GPa
Yield stress on the cable = 400 MPa
Safety factor = 2.0
Explanation:
Data
let L = 
= 3.35 m
substituting 1.5 m for h and 3 m for the tern (a + b)
= tan⁻¹(
)
= 45⁰
substituting 1.5 for h and 3 m for (a+ b) yields:
₂ = tan⁻¹ (
)
=25.56⁰
checking all the forces, they add up to zero. This means that the system is balanced and there is no resultant force.
