Match the measuring instrument with its description.

Engineering
1 answer:
BARSIC [14]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1. Clepsydra

2. Barometer

3. Chronometer

4. Se*tant

Explanation:

1. A clepsydra is a device that measures time by using a regulated fluid flow. It looks like a hour glass.

2. A barometer is a device that measures pressure. The level of liquid inside of its tubes changes with the atmospheric pressure change.

3. A chronometer is used to determine a position while knowing latitude, longitude, and altitude.

4. A se*tant has an arc of a circle and a movable arm pivoted at the center of the circle. It is used to view the horizon and also celestial bodies.

For which of 'water' flow velocities at 200C can we assume that the flow is incompressible ? a.1000 km per hour b. 500 km per ho
ad-work [718]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given

Temperature=200^{\circ}\approc 473 K

Also \gamma for air=1.4

R=287 J/kg

Flow will be In-compressible when Mach no.<0.32

Mach no.=\frac{V}{\sqrt{\gamma RT}}

(a)1000 km/h\approx 277.78 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{277.78}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=0.63

(b)500 km/h\approx 138.89 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{138.89}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=0.31

(c)2000 km/h\approx 555.55 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{555.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=1.27

(d)200 km/h\approx 55.55 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{55.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=0.127

From above results it is clear that for Flow at velocity 200 km/h ,it will be incompressible.

An automobile weighing 2500 lbf increases its gravitational potential energy by a magnitude of 2.25 × 104 Btu in going from an e
Mila [183]

Answer:

The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.

Explanation:

The automobile weight is 2500 lbf.

The automobile increases its gravitational potential energy in 2.25 * 10^4 BTU. It means the mobile has increased its elevation.

The initial elevation is of 5183 ft.  

The first step is to convert Btu of potential energy to adequate units to work with data previously presented.

British Thermal Unit - 1 BTU = 778.17  lbf*ft

2.25 * 10^4 BTU (\frac{778.17 lbf*ft}{1BTU} ) = 1.75 * 10^7 lbf * ft

Now we have the gravitational potential energy in lbf*ft. Weight of the mobile is in lbf and the elevation is in ft. We can evaluate the expression for gravitational potential energy as follows:  

Ep = m*g*(h_2 - h_1)\\ W = m*g  

Where m is the mass of the automobile, g is the gravity, W is the weight of the automobile showed in the problem.  

h_2 is the final elevation and h_1 is the initial elevation.

Replacing W in the Ep equation

Ep = W*(h_2 -h_1)\\(h_2 -h_1) = \frac{Ep}{W} \\h_2 = h_1 + \frac{Ep}{W}\\\\

Finally, the next step is to replace the variables of the problem.  

h_2 = 5183 ft + \frac{1.75 * 10^7 lbf*ft}{2500 lbf}\\h_2 = 5183 ft + 70003.5 ft\\h_2 = 12186.5 ft

The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.

A beam has a rectangular cross section that is 5 inches wide and 1.5 inches tall. The supports are 60 inches apart and with a 12
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The value of Modulus of elasticity E = 85.33 × 10^{6} \frac{lbm}{in^{2} }

Beam deflection is = 0.15 in

Explanation:

Given data

width = 5 in

Length = 60 in

Mass of the person = 125 lb

Load = 125 × 32 = 4000\frac{ft lbm}{s^{2} }

We know that moment of inertia is given as

I = \frac{bt^{3} }{12}

I = \frac{5 (1.5^{3} )}{12}

I = 1.40625 in^{4}

Deflection = 0.15 in

We know that deflection of the beam in this case is given as

Δ = \frac{PL^{3} }{48EI}

0.15 = \frac{4000(60)^{3} }{48 E (1.40625)}

E = 85.33 × 10^{6} \frac{lbm}{in^{2} }

This is the value of Modulus of elasticity.

Beam deflection is = 0.15 in
