Answer:

The Decision Matrix

As you compare potential solutions to your design brief and the universal criteria for a good design, it may be obvious which solution is the best. ... A decision matrix is a chart with your requirements and criteria on one axis and the different solutions on the other.

A 150-lbm astronaut took his bathroom scale (aspring scale) and a beam scale (compares masses) to themoon where the local gravit

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a) W = 25.5 lbf

b) W = 150 lbf

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of astronaut = 150 lbm

local gravity = 5.48 ft/s^2

a) weight on spring scale

it can be calculated by measuring force against local gravitational force which is equal to weight of body

W = mg

$W = (150 \times 5.48)\times \frac{1 lbm}{32.32 lbm. ft/s^2} = 25.5 lbf$

b) As we know that beam scale calculated mass only therefore no change in mass due to variation in gravity

thus W= 150 lbf

Solar energy stored in large bodies of water, called solar ponds, is being used to generate electricity. If such a solar power p

fgiga [73]

Answer: 1.137*10^7 Btu/h.

Explanation:

Given data:

Efficiency of the plant = 4.5percent

Net power output of the plant = 150kw

Solution:

The required collection rate

QH = W/n

= 150/0.045 * 0.94782/ 1 /60 */60 Btu/h.

= 3333.333 *3412.152Btu/h.

= 11373840 Btu/h

= 1.137*10^7 Btu/h.

What is the metal removal rate when a 2 in-diameter hole 3.5 in deep is drilled in 1020 steel at cutting speed of 120 fpm with a

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a) the metal removal rate is 14.4 in³/min

b) the cutting time is 0.98 min

Explanation:

Given the data from the question

first we find the rpm for the spindle of the drilling tool, using the equation

Ns = 12V/πD

V is the cutting speed(120 fpm) and D is the diameter of the hole( 2 in)

so we substitute

Ns = 12 × 120 / π2

Ns = 1440 / 6.2831

Ns = 229.18 rmp

Now we find the metal removal rate using the equation

MRR = (πD²/4) Fr × Ns

Fr is the feed rate( 0.02 ipr ),

so we substitute

MRR = ((π × 2²)/4) × 0.02 × 229.18

MRR = 14.3998 ≈ 14.4 in³/min

Therefore the metal removal rate is 14.4 in³/min

Next we find the allowance for approach of the tip of the drill

A = D/2

A = 2/2

= 1 in

now find the time required to drill the hole

Tm = (L + A) / (Fr × Ns)

Lis the the depth of the hole( 3.5 in)

so we substitute our values

Tm = (3.5 + 1) / (0.02 × 229.18 )

Tm = 4.5 / 4.5836

Tm = 0.98 min

Therefore the cutting time is 0.98 min
