Veronika [31]2 years ago

7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The VC-T engine (for "variable compression, turbocharged") can adjust its compression ratio between 8:1 and 14:1 on the fly, offering high-compression efficiency under light loads and the low compression needed for turbocharged power under hard acceleration.

If a hoist lifts a 4500lb load 30ft in 15s, the power delivered to the load is a) 18.00hp b) 9000hp c) 16.36hp d) None of the ab

12345 [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

load = 4500lb lift height= 30 ft

time =15 s

velocity= $\frac{30}{15}$ ft/s

velocity=2 ft/s

power = force $\times$ velocity

power= ${4500}\times2$

power= 9000 lb ft/s

1 hp= 550 lb ft/s

power= $\frac{9000}{550} =16.36$ hp

Entropy change is evaluated using Eq. 6.2a based on an internally reversible process. Can the entropy change between two states

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

YES

Explanation:

Entropy is an extensive property of the system entropy change that value of entropy change can be determined for any process between the states whether reversible or not. i have attached the formula to calculate entropy change which is independent of whether the system is reversible or not and can be determined for any process.

A 1000 W iron utilizes a resistance wire which is 20 inches long and has a diameter of 0.08 inches. Determine the rate of heat g

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The rate of heat generation in the wire per unit volume is 5.79×10^7 Btu/hrft^3

Heat flux is 9.67×10^7 Btu/hrft^2

Explanation:

Rate of heat generation = 1000 W = 1000/0.29307 = 3412.15 Btu/hr

Area (A) = πD^2/4

Diameter (D) = 0.08 inches = 0.08 in × 3.2808 ft/39.37 in = 0.0067 ft

A = 3.142×0.0067^2/4 = 3.53×10^-5 ft^2

Volume (V) = A × Length

L = 20 inches = 20 in × 3.2808 ft/39.37 in = 1.67 ft

V = 3.53×10^-5 × 1.67 = 5.8951×10^-5 ft^3

Rate of heat generation in the wire per unit volume = 3412.15 Btu/hr ÷ 5.8951×10^-5 ft^3 = 5.79×10^7 Btu/hrft^3

Heat flux = 3412.15 Btu/hr ÷ 3.53×10^-5 ft^2 = 9.67×10^7 Btu/hrft^2

A well is located in a 20.1-m thick confined aquifer with a conductivity of 14.9 m/day and a storativity of 0.0051. If the well

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

S = 5.7209 M

Explanation:

Given data:

B = 20.1 m

conductivity ( K ) = 14.9 m/day

Storativity ( s ) = 0.0051

1 gpm = 5.451 m^3/day

calculate the Transmissibility ( T ) = K * B

= 14.9 * 20.1 = 299.5 m^2/day

Note :

t = 1

U = ( r^2* S ) / (4*T*<em> t </em>)

= ( 7^2 * 0.0051 ) / ( 4 * 299.5 * 1 ) = 2.0859 * 10^-4

Applying the thesis method

W(u) = -0.5772 - In(U)

= 7.9

next we calculate the pumping rate from well ( Q ) in m^3/day

= 500 * 5.451 m^3 /day

= 2725.5 m^3 /day

Finally calculate the drawdown at a distance of 7.0 m form the well after 1 day of pumping

S = $\frac{Q}{4\pi T} * W (u)$

where : Q = 2725.5

T = 299.5

W(u) = 7.9

substitute the given values into equation above

S = 5.7209 M
