Technician A says that hoods are designed with reinforcements to prevent folding during a collision. Technician B says that some

hoods are made from reinforced plastic. Who is right?

Technician A is wrong.

Usually, hoods have what is called "Crush Zones" underneath the panels. The function of the Crush Zone is to prevent the hoods, during a collision, from entering into the passenger space.

The crush zones allow the hoods to fold instead.

Technician B is right.

Automobile producers now make use of a hybrid form of hood that consists of fiberglass reinforced with plastic.

They are mostly used for trucks that have a low volume of production.

The hood is built using a process called Resin Transfer Model (RTM).

How do we find percentage error in measuring voltage across a resistor

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

use the percentage error relation

Explanation:

The percentage error in anything is computed from ...

%error = ((measured value)/(accurate value) -1) × 100%

__

The difficulty with voltage measurements is that the "accurate value" may be hard to determine. It can be computed from the nominal values of circuit components, but there is no guarantee that the components actually have those values.

Likewise, the measuring device may have errors. It may or may not be calibrated against some standard, but even measurement standards have some range of possible error.

. Chemical manufacturers must present which Information on the product's label?

STatiana [176]

Answer: A) Product identifier

Explanation:

A product identifier is a means, name or number used to identify hazardous and dangerous chemicals on a label or in the SDS( safety data sheet). It provides a special means which helps the user to identify the chemical. Any product identifier used should permit a cross-references to be made among the listed hazardous chemicals required in the written hazard communication program, and the label including SDS(safety data sheet).

An industrial plant consists of several 60 Hz single-phase motors with low power factor. The plant absorbs 600 kW with a power f

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

(a) $Q=332$ $kvar$ and $C=5.66$ $uF$

(b) $pf=0.90$ lagging

Explanation:

Given Data:

$P=600kW$

$V=12.47kV$

$f=60Hz$

$pf_{old} =0.75$

$pf_{new} =0.95$

(a) Find the required kVAR rating of a capacitor

$\alpha _{old}=cos^{-1}(0.75) =41.41$ °

$\alpha _{new}=cos^{-1}(0.95) =18.19$ °

The required compensation reactive power can be found by

$Q=P(tan(\alpha_{old}) - tan(\alpha_{new}))$

$Q=600(tan(41.41) - tan(18.19))$

$Q=332$ $kvar$

The corresponding capacitor value can be found by

$C=Q/2\pi fV^{2}$

$C=332/2*\pi *60*12.47^{2}$

$C=5.66$ $uF$

(b) calculate the resultant supply power factor

First convert the hp into kW

$P_{mech} =250*746=186.5$ $kW$

Find the electrical power (real power) of the motor

$P_{elec} =P_{mech}/n$

where $n$ is the efficiency of the motor

$P_{elec} =186.5/0.80=233.125$ $kW$

The current in the motor is

$I_{m} =(P/\*V*pf)$

The pf of motor is 0.85 Leading

Note that represents the angle in complex notation (polar form)

$I_{m} =(233.125/12.47*0.85)$

$I_{m}=18.694+11.586$ $j$ $A$

Now find the Load current

pf of load is 0.75 lagging (notice the minus sign)

$I_{load} =(600/12.47*0.75)$

$I_{load} =48.115-42.433$ $j$ $A$

Now the supply current is the current flowing in the load plus the current flowing in the motor

$I_{supply} =I_{m} + I_{load}$

$I_{supply}= (18.694+11.586)+(48.115-42.433)$

$I_{supply} =66.809-30.847j$ $A$

or in polar form

$I_{supply} =73.58$ °

Which means that the supply current lags the supply voltage by 24.78

therefore, the supply power factor is

$pf=cos(24.78)=0.90$ lagging

Which makes sense because original power factor was 0.75 then we installed synchronous motor which resulted in improved power factor of 0.90
