Moisture content is measured in terms of pounds of water per pound of air (lb water/lb air) or grains of water per pound of air (gr. of water/lb air).

Hope this helps❤

A sample of sand weighs 490 g in stock and 475 in Oven Dry (OD) condition, respectively. If absorption capability of the sand is

Ivahew [28]

The weight of the specimen in SSD condition is 373.3 cc

Explanation:

a) Apparent specific gravity = $\frac{A}{A-C}$

Where,

A = mass of oven dried test sample in air = 1034 g

B = saturated surface test sample in air = 1048.9 g

C = apparent mass of saturated test sample in water = 975.6 g

apparent specific gravity = $\frac{A}{A-C}$

= $\frac{1034}{1034-675 \cdot 6}$

Apparent specific gravity = 2.88

b) Bulk specific gravity $G_{B}^{O D}=\frac{A}{B-C}$

$G_{B}^{O D}=\frac{1034}{1048.9-675 \cdot 6}$

= 2.76

c) Bulk specific gravity (SSD):

$G_{B}^{S S D}=\frac{B}{B-C}$

$=\frac{1048 \cdot 9}{1048 \cdot 9-675 \cdot 6}$

$G_{B}^{S S D}$ = 2.80

d) Absorption% :

$=\frac{B-A}{A} \times 100 \%$

$=\frac{1048 \cdot 9-1034}{1034} \times 100$

Absorption = 1.44 %

e) Bulk Volume :

$v_{b}=\frac{\text { weight of dispaced water }}{P \omega t}$

$=\frac{1048 \cdot 9-675 \cdot 6}{1}$

= $373.3 cc$

At a certain location, wind is blowing steadily at 5 mph. Suppose that the mass density of air is 0.0796 lbm/ft3 and determine t

nlexa [21]

Answer:

The radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft

The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m

Explanation:

Given;

power generation potential (PGP) = 1000 kW

Wind speed = 5 mph = 2.2352 m/s

Density of air = 0.0796 lbm/ft³ = 1.275 kg/m³

Radius of the wind turbine r = ?

Wind energy per unit mass of air, e = E/m = 0.5 v² = (0.5)(2.2352)²

Wind energy per unit mass of air = 2.517 J/kg

PGP = mass flow rate * energy per unit mass

PGP = ρ*A*V*e

$PGP = \rho *\frac{\pi r^2}{2} *V*e \\\\r^2 = \frac{2*PGP}{\rho*\pi *V*e} , r=\sqrt{ \frac{2*PGP}{\rho*\pi *V*e}} = \sqrt{ \frac{2*10^6}{1.275*\pi *2.235*2.517}}$

r = 210.64 m = 691.1 ft

Thus, the radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft

PGP = CVᵃ

For best design of wind turbine Betz limit (c) is taken between (0.35 - 0.45)

Let C = 0.4

PGP = Cvᵃ

take log of both sides

ln(PGP) = a*ln(CV)

a = ln(PGP)/ln(CV)

a = ln(1000)/ln(0.4 *2.2352) = 7.73

The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m

What is the criteria for a guard having to be used on a machine?

evablogger [386]

Answer:

Machine Safeguards must meet these minimum general requirements: Prevent contact: The safeguard must prevent hands, arms, or any other part of a worker's body from making contact with dangerous moving parts. Be secure: Workers should not be able to easily remove or tamper with the safeguard.
