Why does the compression-refrigeration cycle have a high-pressure side and a low-pressure side?

vertical gate in an irrigation canal holds back 12.2 m of water. Find the average force on the gate if its width is 3.60 m. Repo

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The right solution is "2625 kN".

Explanation:

According to the question,

The average pressure will be:

= $density\times g\times \frac{h}{2}$

By putting values, we get

= $1000\times 9.8\times \frac{12.2}{2}$

= $1000\times 9.8\times 6.1$

= $59780$

hence,

The average force will be:

= $Pressure\times Area$

= $59780\times 3.6\times 12.2$

= $2625537 \ N$

Or,

= $2625 \ kN$

An escalator handles a steady load of 26 people per minute in elevating them from the first to the second floor through a vertic

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

$\eta = 70.711\,\%$

Explanation:

The power needed to make the escalator working is obtained by means of the Work-Energy Theorem:

$\dot W = \dot U_{g}$

$\dot W = \dot n \cdot m_{p}\cdot g \cdot \Delta y$

$\dot W = \left(26\,\frac{persons}{min}\right)\cdot (124\,lbm)\cdot \left(32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,lbf}{32.174\,\frac{lbm\cdot ft}{s^{2}} } \right)\cdot (27.5\,ft)$

$\dot W = 88660\,\frac{lbf\cdot ft}{min}\,\left(2.687\,hp\right)$

The mechanical efficiency of the escalator is:

$\eta = \frac{2.687\,hp}{3.8\,hp}\times 100\,\%$

$\eta = 70.711\,\%$

A driver takes 3.5 s to react to a complex situation while traveling at a speed of 60 mi/h. How far does the vehicle travel befo

victus00 [196]

Answer:

x = 93.8 m.

Explanation:

During the entire the reaction time interval, the vehicle continues moving at the same speed that it was moving, i.e., 60 mi/hr.

In order to calculate the distance in meters, travelled at that speed, it is advisable first to convert the 60 mi/hr to m/seg, as follows:

$60 mi/hr = 60*\frac{1hr}{3,600s}*\frac{1,605m}{1mi} = 26.8 m/s$

Applying the definition of average velocity, we can solve for Δx, as follows:

Δx = 26.8 m/s* 3.5 s = 93.8 m
