Answer:

D) Louisiana, to prevent homes from blowing away in hurricanes.

Explanation:

Louisiana is famous for hurricanes i think that if they were well prepared and had deeper foundation the damage may lower by a good lot.

For a certain gas, Cp = 840.4 J/kg-K; and Cv = 651.5 J/kg-K. How fast will sound travel in this gas if it is at an adiabatic sta

Crank

Answer:

The speed of the sound for the adiabatic gas is 313 m/s

Explanation:

For adiabatic state gas, the speed of the sound c is calculated by the following expression:

$c=\sqrt(\gamma*R*T)$

Where R is the gas's particular constant defined in terms of Cp and Cv:

$R=Cp-Cv$

For particular values given:

$R=840.4 \frac{J}{Kg-K}- 651.5 \frac{J}{Kg-K}$

$R=188.9 \frac{J}{Kg-K}$

The gamma undimensional constant is also expressed as a function of Cv and Cp:

$\gamma=Cp/Cv$

$\gamma=840.4 \frac{J}{Kg-K} / 651.5 \frac{J}{Kg-K}$

$\gamma=1.29$

And the variable T is the temperature in Kelvin. Thus for the known temperature:

$c=\sqrt(1.29*188.9 \frac{J}{Kg-K}*377 K)$

$c=\sqrt(91867.73 \frac{J}{Kg})$

The Jules unit can expressing by:

$J=N.m=\frac{Kg.m}{s^2}* m$

$J=\frac{Kg.m^2}{s^2}$

Replacing the new units for the speed of the sound:

$c=\sqrt(91867.73 \frac{Kg.m^2}{Kg.s^2})$

$c=\sqrt(91867.73 \frac{m^2}{s^2})$

$c=313 m/s$

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

g A steel water pipe has an inner diameter of 12 in. and a wall thickness of 0.25 in. Determine the longitudinal and hoop stress

zvonat [6]

Answer:

a) $\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 4800 psi}$

$\mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 0}$

b) $\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 6000 psi}$

$\mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 3000 psi}$

Explanation:

Given that:

diameter d = 12 in

thickness t = 0.25 in

the radius = d/2 = 12 / 2 = 6 in

r/t = 6/0.25 = 24

24 > 10

Using the thin wall cylinder formula;

The valve A is opened and the flowing water has a pressure P of 200 psi.

So;

$\sigma_{hoop} = \sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t}$

$\sigma_{long} = \sigma _2 = 0$

$\sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t} \\ \\ \sigma _ 1 = \frac{200(12)}{2(0.25)}$

$\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 4800 psi}$

b)The valve A is closed and the water pressure P is 250 psi.

where P = 250 psi

$\sigma_{hoop} = \sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t}$

$\sigma_{long} = \sigma _2 = \frac{Pd}{4t}$

$\sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t} \\ \\ \sigma _ 1 = \frac{250*(12)}{2(0.25)}$

$\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 6000 psi}$

$\sigma _2 = \frac{Pd}{4t} \\ \\ \sigma _2 = \frac{250(12)}{4(0.25)}$

$\mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 3000 psi}$

Fill in the empty function so that it returns the sum of all the divisors of a number, without including it. A divisor is a numb

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

// Program is written in C++

// Comments are used to explain some lines

// Only the required function is written. The main method is excluded.

#include<bits/stdc++.h>

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int divSum(int num)

{

// The next line declares the final result of summation of divisors. The variable declared is also

//initialised to 0

int result = 0;

// find all numbers which divide 'num'

for (int i=2; i<=(num/2); i++)

{

// if 'i' is divisor of 'num'

if (num%i==0)

{

if (i==(num/i))

result += i; //add divisor to result

else

result += (i + num/i); //add divisor to result

}

cout<<result+1;

}
