Two streams of air enter a control volume: stream 1 enters at a rate of 0.05 kg / s at 300 kPa and 380 K, while stream 2 enters

alex41 [277]

Answer:

0.08kg/s

Explanation:

For this problem you must use 2 equations, the first is the continuity equation that indicates that all the mass flows that enter is equal to those that leave the system, there you have the first equation.

The second equation is obtained using the first law of thermodynamics that indicates that all the energies that enter a system are the same that come out, you must take into account the heat flows, work and mass flows of each state, as well as their enthalpies found with the temperature.

finally you use the two previous equations to make a system and find the mass flows

The proposed grading at a project site will consist of 25,100 m3 of cut and 23,300 m3 of fill and will be a balanced earthwork j

Anna [14]

Answer:

the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL

Explanation:

Given that;

volume of cut = 25,100 m³

Volume of dry soil fill = 23,300 m³

Weight of the soil will be;

⇒ 93% × 18.3 kN/m³ × 23,300 m³

= 0.93 × 426390 kN 3

= 396,542.7 kN

Optimum moisture content = 12.9 %

Required amount of moisture = (12.9 - 8.3)% = 4.6 %

So,

Weight of water required = 4.6% × 396,542.7 = 18241 kN

Volume of water required = 18241 / 9.81 = 1859 m³

Volume of water required = 1859 kL

Therefore, the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL

A fatigue test was conducted in which the mean stress was 90 MPa (13050 psi), and the stress amplitude was 190 MPa (27560 psi).

Gwar [14]

Answer:

a) 280MPa

b) -100MPa

c) -0.35

d) 380 MPa

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

mean stress $\sigma_m = 90MPa$

stress amplitude $\sigma_a = 190MPa$

a) $\sigma_m =\frac{\sigma_max+\sigma_min}{2}$

$90 =\frac{\sigma_{max}+\sigma_{min}}{2}$ --------------1

$\sigma_a =\frac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2}$

$190 = \frac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2}$ -----------2

solving 1 and 2 equation we get

$\sigma_{max} = 280MPa$

b) $\sigma_{min} = - 100MPa$

c)

stress ratio $=\frac{\sigma_{min}}{\sigma_{max}}$

$=\frac{-100}{280} = -0.35$

d)magnitude of stress range

$=(\sigma_{max} -\sigma_{min})$

= 280 -(-100) = 380 MPa

Why might construction crews want to install pipes before the foundation is poured?

denpristay [2]

I’m a concrete mason myself and I can tell you it is a pain in the butt to Roto hammer a hole into the concrete to put the pipe in it’s a lot easier to just pour the concrete around it
