An asphalt concrete mixture includes 94% aggregates by weight. The specific gravity of aggregate and asphalt are 2.7 and 1.0, re
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The correct solution is "5.74%".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Gravity of aggregate,

G_{agg}=2.7

Gravity of asphalt,

G_{asp}=1.0

Asphalt concrete mixture,

W_{agg}=0.94 \ W_m

We know that,

W_{asp}=W_m-W_{agg}

        =0.06 \ W_m

Now,

The theoretical specific gravity of mix,

⇒ G_t=\frac{W_{agg}+W_{asp}}{\frac{W_{agg}}{G_{agg}} +\frac{W_{asp}}{G_{asp}} }

By putting the values, we get

         =\frac{0.94 \ Wm+0.06 \ Wm}{\frac{0.94 \ Wm}{2.7} +\frac{0.06 \ Wm}{1} }

         =2.45

hence,

The percentage of voids will be:

⇒  %V = \frac{G_t-G_m}{G_t}\times 100

           = \frac{2.45-2.317}{2.45}\times 100

           = \frac{0.133}{2.317}\times 100

           = 5.74 (%)

Two balanced Y-connected loads in parallel, one drawing 15kW at 0.6 power factor lagging and the other drawing 10kVA at 0.8 powe
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) attached below

(b) pf_{C}=0.85 lagging

(c) I_{C} =32.37 A

(d) X_{C} =49.37 Ω

(e) I_{cap} =9.72 A and I_{line} =27.66 A

Explanation:

Given data:

P_{1}=15 kW

S_{2} =10 kVA

pf_{1} =0.6 lagging

pf_{2}=0.8 leading

V=480 Volts

(a) Draw the power triangle for each load and for the combined load.

\alpha_{1}=cos^{-1} (0.6)=53.13°

\alpha_{2}=cos^{-1} (0.8)=36.86°

S_{1}=P_{1} /pf_{1} =15/0.6=25 kVA

Q_{1}=P_{1} tan(\alpha_{1} )=15*tan(53.13)=19.99 ≅ 20kVAR

P_{2} =S_{2}*pf_{2} =10*0.8=8 kW

Q_{2} =P_{2} tan(\alpha_{2} )=8*tan(-36.86)=-5.99 ≅ -6 kVAR

The negative sign means that the load 2 is providing reactive power rather than consuming  

Then the combined load will be

P_{c} =P_{1} +P_{2} =15+8=23 kW

Q_{c} =Q_{1} +Q_{2} =20-6=14 kVAR

(b) Determine the power factor of the combined load and state whether lagging or leading.

S_{c} =P_{c} +jQ_{c} =23+14j

or in the polar form

S_{c} =26.92°

pf_{C}=cos(31.32) =0.85 lagging

The relationship between Apparent power S and Current I is

S=VI^{*}

Since there is conjugate of current I therefore, the angle will become negative and hence power factor will be lagging.

(c) Determine the magnitude of the line current from the source.

Current of the combined load can be found by

I_{C} =S_{C}/\sqrt{3}*V

I_{C} =26.92*10^3/\sqrt{3}*480=32.37 A

(d) Δ-connected capacitors are now installed in parallel with the combined load. What value of capacitive reactance is needed in each leg of the A to make the source power factor unity?Give your answer in Ω

Q_{C} =3*V^2/X_{C}

X_{C} =3*V^2/Q_{C}

X_{C} =3*(480)^2/14*10^3 Ω

(e) Compute the magnitude of the current in each capacitor and the line current from the source.

Current flowing in the capacitor is  

I_{cap} =V/X_{C} =480/49.37=9.72 A

Line current flowing from the source is

I_{line} =P_{C} /3*V=23*10^3/3*480=27.66 A

Three bars each made of different materials are connected together and placed between two walls when the temperature is 12 oC. D
slega [8]

Answer:

F = 9.11 x 10³ N = 9.11 KN

Explanation:

The areas, lengths, young's modulus, and coefficient of linear thermal expansion are given in the diagram. First we find the equivalent change in length due to temperature change:

ΔL = (ΔL)steel + (ΔL)brass + (ΔL)Copper

ΔL = (∝s)(Ls)(ΔT) + (∝b)(Lb)(ΔT) + (∝c)(Lc)(ΔT)

where,

ΔL = Equivalent Change in Length = ?

ΔT = Change in Temperature = 25°C - 12°C = 13°C

Ls = Length of Steel Segment = 300 mm = 0.3 m

Lb = Length of Brass Segment = 200 mm = 0.2 m

Lc = Length of Copper Segment = 100 mm = 0.1 m

Therefore,

ΔL = (12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹)(0.3 m)(13 °C) + (21 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹)(0.2 m)(13 °C) + (17 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹)(0.1 m)(13 °C)

ΔL = 46.8 x 10⁻⁶ m + 54.6 x 10⁻⁶ m + 22.1 x 10⁻⁶ m

ΔL = 123.5 x 10⁻⁶ m   ----------------------- equation (1)

Now, we calculate this deflection in terms of an applied force (F):

ΔL = (F)(Ls)/(Es)(As) + (F)(Lb)/(Eb)(Ab) + (F)(Lc)/(Ec)(Ac)

ΔL = (F)(0.3 m)/(200 x 10⁹ Pa)(200 x 10⁻⁶ m²) + (F)(0.2 m)/(100 x 10⁹ Pa)(450 x 10⁻⁶ m²) + (F)(0.1 m)/(120 x 10⁹ Pa)(515 x 10⁻⁶ m²)

ΔL = F(7.5 x 10⁻⁹ m/N + 4.44 x 10⁻⁹ m/N + 1.61 x 10⁻⁹ m/N)

ΔL = F(13.55 x 10⁻⁹ m/N)   --------------------- equation (1)

Comparing equation (1) and equation (2):

123.5 x 10⁻⁶ m = F(13.55 x 10⁻⁹ m/N)

F = (123.5 x 10⁻⁶ m)/(13.55 x 10⁻⁹ m/N)

<u>F = 9.11 x 10³ N = 9.11 KN</u>
