Explanation:

Ohm's law is used here. V = IR, and variations. The voltage across all elements is the same in this parallel circuit. (V1 =V2 =V3)

The total supply current is the sum of the currents in each of the branches. (It = I1 +I2 +I3)

Rt = (8 V)/(8 A) = 1 Ω . . . . supply voltage divided by supply current

I3 = 8A -3A -4A = 1 A . . . . supply current not flowing through other branches

R1 = (8 V)/(3 A) = 8/3 Ω

R2 = (8 V)/(4 A) = 2 Ω

R3 = (8 V)/(I3) = (8 V)/(1 A) = 8 Ω

V1 = V2 = V3 = 8 V

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Due to touch of teflon, its charge will reduce but will not go to zero. Some amount of its initial charge will be transferred to Aluminum rod. So, aluminum rod will have a non-zero negative charge.

Find the mathematical equation for SF distribution and BM diagram for the beam shown in figure 1.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

i) SF: $v(x) = \frac{(w_0* x )^2}{2L}$

ii) BM : $= \frac{(w_0*x)^3}{6L}$

Explanation:

Let's take,

$\frac{y}{w_0} = \frac{x}{L}$

Making y the subject of formula, we have :

$y = \frac{x}{L} * w_0$

For shear force (SF), we have:

This is the area of the diagram.

$v(x) = \frac{1}{2} * y = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{x}{L} * w_0$

$= \frac{(w_0* x )^2}{2L}$

The shear force equation =

$v(x) = \frac{(w_0* x )^2}{2L}$

For bending moment (BM):

$BM = v(x) * \frac{x}{3}$

$= \frac{(w_0* x )^2}{2L} * \frac{x}{3}$

$= \frac{(w_0*x)^3}{6L}$

The bending moment equation =

$= \frac{(w_0*x)^3}{6L}$

A vacuum gage connected to a tank reads 30 kPa at a location where the barometric reading is 755 mmHg. Determine the absolute pr

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa

Explanation:

Given that Vacuum gauge pressure= 30 KPa

Barometer reading =755 mm Hg

We know that barometer always reads atmospheric pressure at given situation.So atmospheric pressure is equal to 755 mm Hg.

We know that P= ρ g h

Density of $Hg=13600 \frac{kg}{m^3}$

So P=13600 x 9.81 x 0.755

P=100.72 KPa

We know that

Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure

But here given that 30 KPa is a Vacuum pressure ,so we will take it as negative.

Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure

Absolute pressure=100.72 - 30 KPa

Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa

100 kg of R-134a at 200 kPa are contained in a piston–cylinder device whose volume is 12.322 m3. The piston is now moved until t

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

T=151 K, U=-1.848*10^6J

Explanation:

The given process occurs when the pressure is constant. Given gas follows the Ideal Gas Law:

pV=nRT

For the given scenario, we operate with the amount of the gas- n- calculated in moles. To find n, we use molar mass: M=102 g/mol.

Using the given mass m, molar mass M, we can get the following equation:

pV=mRT/M

To calculate change in the internal energy, we need to know initial and final temperatures. We can calculate both temperatures as:

T=pVM/(Rm); so initial T=302.61K and final T=151.289K

Now we can calculate change of U:

U=3/2 mRT/M using T- difference in temperatures

U=-1.848*10^6 J

Note, that the energy was taken away from the system.
