Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A.) Time = 13.75 seconds

B.) Total distance = 339 m

C.) V = 11.18 m/s

D.) V = 10.2 m/s

Explanation: Given that the automobile travels along a straight road at 15.65 m/s through a 11.18 m/s speed zone.

Then,

Initial velocity U of the motorist = 15.65m/s

acceleration a = - 3.05 m/s^2

Initial velocity u of the police man = 11.18 m/s

Acceleration a = 1.96 m/s^2

The police will overtake at distance S as the motorist decelerate and come to rest.

Where V = 0 and a = negative

While the police accelerate.

Using 2nd equation of motion for the motorist and the police

S = ut + 1/2at^2

Since the distance S covered will be the same, so

15.65t - 1/2×3.05t^2 = 11.18t +1/2×1.96t^2

Solve for t by collecting the like terms

15.56t - 1.525t^2 = 11.18t + 0.98t^2

15.56t - 11.18t = 0.98t^2 + 1.525t^2

4.38t = 2.505t^2

t = 4.38/2.505

t = 1.75 seconds approximately

But the motorist noticed the police car in his rear view mirror 12 s after the police car started the pursuit.

Therefore, the total time required for the police car to overtake the automobile will be:

12 + 1.75 = 13.75 seconds

B.) Using the same formula

S = ut + 1/2at^2

Where S = total distance travelled

Substitutes t into the formula

S = 11.18(13.75) + 1/2 × 1.96 (13.75)^2

S = 153.725 + 185.28

S = 339 m approximately

C.) The speed of the police car at the time it overtakes the automobile will be constant = 11.18 m/s

D.) Using first equation of motion

V = U - at

Since the motorist is decelerating

V = 15.65 - 3.05 × 1.75

V = 15.65 - 5.338

V = 10.22 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the automobile at the time it was overtaken by the police car is 10.2 m/ s approximately

A very large thin plate is centered in a gap of width 0.06 m with a different oils of unknown viscosities above and below; one viscosity is twice the other. When the plate is pulled at a velocity of 0.3 m/s, the resulting force on one square meter of plate due to the viscous shear on both sides is 29 N. Assuming viscous flow and neglecting all end effects calculate the viscosities of the oils.

Answers

Answer:

The viscosities of the oils are 0.967 Pa.s and 1.933 Pa.s

Explanation:

Assuming the two oils are Newtonian fluids.

From Newton's law of viscosity for Newtonian fluids, we know that the shear stress is proportional to the velocity gradient with the viscosity serving as the constant of proportionality.

τ = μ (∂v/∂y)

There are oils above and below the plate, so we can write this expression for the both cases.

τ₁ = μ₁ (∂v/∂y)

τ₂ = μ₂ (∂v/∂y)

dv = 0.3 m/s

dy = (0.06/2) = 0.03 m (the plate is centered in a gap of width 0.06 m)

τ₁ = μ₁ (0.3/0.03) = 10μ₁

τ₂ = μ₂ (0.3/0.03) = 10μ₂

But the shear stress on the plate is given as 29 N per square meter.

τ = 29 N/m²

But this stress is a sum of stress due to both shear stress above and below the plate

τ = τ₁ + τ₂ = 10μ₁ + 10μ₂ = 29

But it is also given that one viscosity is twice the other

μ₁ = 2μ₂

10μ₁ + 10μ₂ = 29

10(2μ₂) + 10μ₂ = 29

30μ₂ = 29

μ₂ = (29/30) = 0.967 Pa.s

μ₁ = 2μ₂ = 2 × 0.967 = 1.933 Pa.s

An Ideal gas is being heated in a circular duct as while flowing over an electric heater of 130 kW. The diameter of duct is 500 mm. The gas enters the heating section of the duct at 100 kPa and 27 deg C with a volume flow rate of 15 m3/s. If heat is lost from the gas in the duct to the surroundings at a rate of 80 kW, Calculate the exit temperature of the gas in deg C. (Assume constant pressure, ideal gas, negligible change in kinetic and potential energies and constant specific heat; Cp =1000 J/kg K; R = 500 J/kg K)

Answers

Answer:

Exit temperature = 32°C

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial Pressure;P1 = 100 KPa

Cp =1000 J/kg.K = 1 KJ/kg.k

R = 500 J/kg.K = 0.5 Kj/Kg.k

Initial temperature;T1 = 27°C = 273 + 27K = 300 K

volume flow rate;V' = 15 m³/s

W = 130 Kw

Q = 80 Kw

Using ideal gas equation,

PV' = m'RT

Where m' is mass flow rate.

Thus;making m' the subject, we have;

m' = PV'/RT

So at inlet,

m' = P1•V1'/(R•T1)

m' = (100 × 15)/(0.5 × 300)

m' = 10 kg/s

From steady flow energy equation, we know that;

m'•h1 + Q = m'h2 + W

Dividing through by m', we have;

h1 + Q/m' = h2 + W/m'

h = Cp•T

Thus,

Cp•T1 + Q/m' = Cp•T2 + W/m'

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

(1*300) - (80/10) = (1*T2) - (130/10)

Q and M negative because heat is being lost.

300 - 8 + 13 = T2

T2 = 305 K = 305 - 273 °C = 32 °C

A heavy ball with a weight of 110 N is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.9-m-long rope. The ball is pulled to one side and released to swing as a pendulum, reaching a speed of 5.0 m/s as it passes through the lowest point.

Required:
What is the tension in the rope at that point?

Answers

Answer:T = 167.3 N

Explanation:

Given that the

Weight mg = 110 N

The mass m of the ball will be

m = 110/9.8 = 11.22 kg

As the direction of the ball’s velocity is changing, the force responsible for this is centripetal force F. And

F = mV^2/r

Where

V = 5.0 m/s

r = L = 4.9 m

m = 11.22

Substitute all these parameters into the formula

F = (11.22 × 5^2)/4.9

F = 280.6/4.9

F = 57.27 N

Tension T = F + mg

Substitute F and mg into the formula

T = 57.27 + 110

T = 167.3 N

Therefore, the tension in the rope at that point is 167.3 N

A piston-cylinder device initially at 0.45-m3 contains nitrogen gas at 600 kPa and 300 K. Now the gas is compressed isothermally to a volume of 0.2 m3. The work done on the gas during this compression process is _____ kJ.

Answers

Answer:

219kJ

Explanation:

The work done (W) on a gas in an isothermal process is given by;

W = -P₁V₁ ln[tex]\frac{V_{2}}{V_1}[/tex]      -----------------(i)

Where;

P₁ = initial pressure of the gas

V₁ = initial volume of the gas

V₂ = final volume of the gas

From the question;

P₁ = 600kPa = 6 x 10⁵Pa

V₁ = 0.45m³

V₂ = 0.2m³

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

W = -6 x 10⁵ x 0.45 x ln [tex]\frac{0.2}{0.45}[/tex]

W = -6 x 10⁵ x 0.45 x ln (0.444)

W = -6 x 10⁵ x 0.45 x -0.811

W = 2.19 x 10⁵

W = 219 x 10³

W = 219kJ

Therefore, the work done on the gas during the compression process is 219kJ

c) What is the volume, in m3, occupied by saturated liquid at the final state?

Answers

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Steam is contained in a closed rigid container with a volume of 1 m3. Initially, the pressure and temperature of the steam are 10 bar and 500°C, respectively. The temperature drops as a result of heat transfer to the surroundings. Determine

(a) the temperature at which condensation first occurs, in [tex]^{o}C[/tex],

(b) the fraction of the total mass that has condensed when the pressure reaches 0.5 bar.

(c) What is the volume, in [tex]m^{3}[/tex], occupied by saturated liquid at the final state?

Explanation:

Using the property tables

  [tex]T_{1} = 500^{o}C[/tex],    [tex]P_{1}[/tex] = 10 bar

  [tex]v_{1} = 0.354 m^{3}/kg[/tex]

(a) During the process, specific volume remains constant.

  [tex]v_{g} = v_{1} = 0.354 m^{3}/kg[/tex]

  T = [tex](150 - 160)^{o}C[/tex]

Using inter-polation we get,

      T = [tex]154.71^{o}C[/tex]

The temperature at which condensation first occurs is [tex]154.71^{o}C[/tex].

(b) When the system will reach at state 3 according to the table at 0.5 bar then

  [tex]v_{f} = 1.030 \times 10^{-3} m^{3}/kg[/tex]

  [tex]v_{g} = 3.24 m^{3} kg[/tex]

Let us assume "x" be the gravity if stream

   [tex]v_{1} = v_{f} + x_{3}(v_{g} - v_{f})[/tex]

   [tex]x_{3} = \frac{v_{1} - v_{f}}{v_{g} - v_{f}}[/tex]

               = [tex]\frac{0.3540 - 0.00103}{3.240 - 0.00103}[/tex]

               = 0.109

At state 3, the fraction of total mass condensed is as follows.

  [tex](1 - x_{5})[/tex] = 1 -  0.109

                = 0.891

The fraction of the total mass that has condensed when the pressure reaches 0.5 bar is 0.891.

(c) Hence, total mass of the system is calculated as follows.

     m = [tex]\frac{v}{v_{1}}[/tex]

         = [tex]\frac{1}{0.354}[/tex]

         = 2.825 kg

Therefore, at final state the total volume occupied by saturated liquid is as follows.

     [tex]v_{ws} = m \times v_{f}[/tex]

                 = [tex]2.825 \times 0.00103[/tex]

                 = [tex]2.9 \times 10^{-3} m^{3}[/tex]

The volume occupied by saturated liquid at the final state is [tex]2.9 \times 10^{-3} m^{3}[/tex].

When using an alternative method of sizing with two vent connectors for draft hood-equipped water heaters, the effective area of the common vent connector or vent manifold and all junction fittings shall not be less than the area of the larger vent connector plus _____ percent of the areas of smaller flue collar outlets

Answers

Answer:

Fifty (50) percent. [50%]

Explanation:

Water heater is a home appliance that comprises of an electric or gas heating unit as well as a water-tank where water is heated and stored for use.

When using an alternative method of sizing with two vent connectors for draft hood-equipped water heaters, the effective area of the common vent connector or vent manifold and all junction fittings shall not be less than the area of the larger vent connector plus fifty (50) percent of the areas of smaller flue collar outlets.

A water heater is primarily vented with an approved and standardized plastic or metallic pipe such as flue or chimney, which allows gas to flow out of the water heater into the surrounding environment.

For a draft hood-equipped water heater, both the water heater and the barometric draft regulators must be installed in the same room. Also, the technician should ensure that the vent is through a concealed space such as conduit and should be labeled as Type L or Type B.

The minimum capacity of a water heater should be calculated based on the number of bathrooms, bedrooms and its first hour rating.

A specimen of a 4340 steel alloy with a plane strain fracture toughness of 54.8 MPa (50 ksi ) is exposed to a stress of 2023 MPa (293400 psi). Assume that the parameter Y has a value of 1.14. (a) If the largest surface crack is 0.2 mm (0.007874 in.) long, determine the critical stress .

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for critical stress is

[tex]\sigma_c=\frac{K}{Y\sqrt{\pi a} }[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_c =\texttt{critical stress}[/tex]

K is the plane strain fracture toughness

Y is dimensionless parameters

We are to Determine the Critical stress

Now replacing the critical stress with 54.8

a with 0.2mm = 0.2 x 10⁻³

Y with 1

[tex]\sigma_c=\frac{54.8}{1\sqrt{\pi \times 0.2\times10^{-3}} } \\\\=\frac{54.8}{\sqrt{6.283\times10^{-4}} } \\\\=\frac{54.8}{0.025} \\\\=2186.20Mpa[/tex]

The fracture will not occur because this material can handle a stress of 2186.20Mpa  before fracture. it is obvious that is greater than 2023Mpa

Therefore, the specimen does not failure for surface crack of 0.2mm

Answers

Question:Technician A say's that The most two-stroke engines have a pressure type lubrication system. Technician be says that four stroke engines do not require the mixing of oil with gasoline . Which of them is correct ?

Answer: Technician  B is   correct

Explanation: Two types of engines exist , the two stroke (example, used in chainsaws)  is a type of engine that uses two strokes--a compression stroke and a return stroke to produce power in a crankshaft combustion cycle and the  four stroke engines(eg lawnmowers) which  uses four strokes,  2-strokes during  compression and exhaustion accompanied by 2 return strokes for each of the initial process to produce power in a combustion cycle.

While a 2 stroke system engine, requires mixing of oil and fuel to the crankshaft before  forcing  the mixture into the cylinder and do not require a pressurized system.  The 4 stroke system uses a splash and pressurized system where oil is not mixed with gasoline but drawn from the sump and  directed to  the main moving  parts of  crankshaft through its channels.

We can therefore say that Technician A is wrong while Technician B is  correct

A = (1.6mm)(12mm) = 19.2 mm² = 19.2 × 10⁻⁶m

Forces is given by:

F = 2.75 × 10³ N

Horizontal Stress can be found by:

σ (x) = F/A

σ (x) = 2.75 × 10³ / 19.2 × 10⁻⁶m

σ (x) = 143.23 × 10⁶ Pa

Horizontal Strain can be found by:

ε (x) = σ (x)/ E

ε (x) = 143.23 × 10⁶ / 200 × 10⁹

ε (x) = 716.15 × 10⁻⁶

Find Vertical Strain:

ε (y) = -v · ε (y)

ε (y) = -(0.3)(716.15 × 10⁻⁶)

ε (y) = -214.84 × 10⁻⁶

PART (a)

Change (y) = W · ε (y)

Change (y) = -2.5781 × 10⁻⁶m

PART(c)

For t= 0.0016m

Change (z) = t · ε (z)

where

Change (z) = t · ε (y)

Change (z) = -343.74 × 10⁻⁹m

PART (d)

A = A(final) - A(initial)

A = -8.25 × 10⁻⁹m²

The resulting change in the 50-mm gauge length; the width of portion AB of the test coupon; the thickness of portion AB; the cross- sectional area of portion AB are respectively; Δx = 35.808 × 10⁻⁶ m; Δy = -2.5781 × 10⁻⁶m; Δ_z = -343.74 × 10⁻⁹m; A = -8.25 × 10⁻⁹m²

What is the stress and strain in the plate?

Let us first find the cross sectional area of AB from the image attached;

A = (1.6mm)(12mm) = 19.2 mm² = 19.2 × 10⁻⁶m

We are given;

Tensile Load; F = 2.75 kN = 2.75 × 10³ N

Horizontal Stress is calculated from the formula;

σₓ = F/A

σₓ = (2.75 × 10³)/(19.2 × 10⁻⁶)m

σₓ = 143.23 × 10⁶ Pa

Horizontal Strain is calculated from;

εₓ = σₓ/E

We are given E = 200 GPa = 200 × 10⁹ Pa

Thus;

εₓ = (143.23 × 10⁶)/(200 × 10⁹)

εₓ = 716.15 × 10⁻⁶

Formula for Vertical Strain is;

ε_y = -ν * εₓ

We are given ν = 0.30. Thus;

ε_y  = -(0.3) * (716.15 × 10⁻⁶)

ε_y  = -214.84 × 10⁻⁶

A) We are given;

Gauge Length; L = 0.05m

Change in gauge length is gotten from;

Δx = L * εₓ

Δx = 0.05 × 716.15 × 10⁻⁶

Δx = 35.808 × 10⁻⁶ m

B) From the attached diagram, the width is;

W = 0.012m

Change in width is;

Δy = W * ε_y

Δy = 0.012 * -214.84 × 10⁻⁶

Δy = -2.5781 × 10⁻⁶m

C) We are given;

Thickness of plate; t = 1.6 mm = 0.0016m

Change in thickness;

Δ_z = t * ε_z

where;

ε_z = ε_y

Thus;

Δ_z = t * ε_y

Δ_z = 0.0016 * -214.84 × 10⁻⁶

Δ_z = -343.74 × 10⁻⁹m

D) The change in cross sectional area is gotten from;

ΔA = A_final - A_initial

From calculating the areas, we have;

A = -8.25 × 10⁻⁹ m²

Answer:

height ≈ 60.60 m

Explanation:

The surveyor is trying to find the height of the hill . He takes a sight on the top of the hill and finds the angle of elevation is 40°. The distance from the hill where he measured the angle of elevation of 40° is not known.

Now he moves 150 m on level ground directly away from the hill and take a second sight from this point and measures the angle of elevation as 22°. This illustration forms a right angle triangle. The opposite side of the triangle is the height of the hill. The adjacent side of the triangle which is 150 m is the distance on level ground directly away from the hill.

Using tangential ratio,

tan 22° = opposite/adjacent

tan 22° = h/150

h = 150 × tan 22°

h = 150 × 0.40402622583

h = 60.6039338753

height ≈ 60.60 m

Engine oil (unused) flows at 1.81 x 10^-3 kg/s inside a 1-cm diameter tube that is heated electrically at a rate of 76 W/m. At a particular location where flow and heat transfer are fully developed, the wall temperature is 370K. Determine:

a. The oil mean temperature.
b. The centerline temperature.
c. The axial gradient of the mean temperature.
d. The heat transfer coefficient.

Answers

Answer:

(a)Tb = 330.12 K (b)Tc =304.73 K (c)19.81 K/m (d) h =60.65 W/m². K

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The mass flow rate of engine oil m = 1.81 x 10^-3 kg/s

Diameter of the tube, D = 1cm =0.01 m

Electrical heat rate, q =76 W/m

Wall Temperature, Ts = 370 K

Now,

From the properties table of engine oil we can deduce as follows:

thermal conductivity, k =0.139 W/m .K

Density, ρ = 854 kg/m³

Specific heat, cp = 2120 J/kg.K

(a) Thus

The wall heat flux is given as follows:

qs = q/πD

=76/π *0.01

= 2419.16 W/m²

Now

The oil mean temperature is given as follows:

Tb =Ts -11/24 (q.R/k) (R =D/2=0.01/2 = 0.005 m)

Tb =370 - 11/24 * (2419.16 * 0.005/0.139)

Tb = 330.12 K

(b) The center line temperature is given below:

Tc =Ts - 3/4 (qs.R/k)= 370 - 3/4 * ( 2419.16 * 0.005/0.139)

Tc =304.73 K

(c) The flow velocity is given as follows:

V = m/ρ (πR²)

Now,

The The axial gradient of the mean temperature is given below:

dTb/dx = 2 *qs/ρ *V*cp * R

=2 *qs/ρ*[m/ρ (πR²) *cp * R

=2 *qs/[m/(πR)*cp

dTb/dx = 2 * 2419.16/[1.81 x 10^-3/(π * 0.005)]* 2120

dTb/dx = 19.81 K/m

(d) The heat transfer coefficient is given below:

h =48/11 (k/D)

=48/11 (0.139/0.01)

h =60.65 W/m². K

Two finned surfaces with long fins are identical, except that the convection heat transfer coefficient for the first finned surface is twice that of the second one. What statement below is accurate for the efficiency and effectiveness of the first finned surface relative to the second one?
A) Higher efficiency and higher effectiveness.
B) Higher efficiency but lower effectiveness.
C) Lower efficiency but higher effectiveness.
D) Lower efficiency and iower effectiveness.
E) Equal efficiency and equal effectiveness.

Answers

Answer:

D) Lower efficiency and lower effectiveness.

Explanation:

Given;

Two finned surfaces with long fins which are identical,

with difference in the convection heat transfer coefficient,

The first finned surface has a higher convection heat transfer coefficient, but gives the same heat rate as the second, which will make it (first finned surface) to have lower efficiency and lower effectiveness than the second finned surface.

Therefore, the correct option is "(D) Lower efficiency and lower effectiveness"

You want to plate a steel part having a surface area of 160 with a 0.002--thick layer of lead. The atomic mass of lead is 207.19 . The density of lead is 11.36 . How many atoms of lead are required

Answers

Answer:

To answer this question we assumed that the area units and the thickness units are given in inches.

The number of atoms of lead required is 1.73x10²³.    

Explanation:

To find the number of atoms of lead we need to find first the volume of the plate:

[tex] V = A*t [/tex]

Where:

A: is the surface area = 160

t: is the thickness = 0.002

Assuming that the units given above are in inches we proceed to calculate the volume:

[tex]V = A*t = 160 in^{2}*0.002 in = 0.32 in^{3}*(\frac{2.54 cm}{1 in})^{3} = 5.24 cm^{3}[/tex]    

Now, using the density we can find the mass:

[tex] m = d*V = 11.36 g/cm^{3}*5.24 cm^{3} = 59.5 g [/tex]

Finally, with the Avogadros number ([tex]N_{A}[/tex]) and with the atomic mass (A) we can find the number of atoms (N):

[tex] N = \frac{m*N_{A}}{A} = \frac{59.5 g*6.022 \cdot 10^{23} atoms/mol}{207.19 g/mol} = 1.73 \cdot 10^{23} atoms [/tex]    

Hence, the number of atoms of lead required is 1.73x10²³.

An airplane flies from San Francisco to Washington DC at an air speed of 800 km/hr. Assume Washington is due east of San Francisco at a distance of 6000 km. Use a Cartesian system of coordinates centered at San Francisco with Washington in the positive x-direction. At cruising altitude, there is a cross wind blowing from north to south of 100 km/hr.

Required:
a. What must be the direction of flight for the plane to actually arrive in Washington?
b. What is the speed in the San Francisco to Washington direction?
c. How long does it take to cover this distance?
d. What is the time difference compared to no crosswind?

Answers

Answer:

A.) 7.13 degree north east

B.) 806.23 km/h

C.) 7.44 hours

D.) 0.06 hours

Explanation:

Assume Washington is due east of San Francisco and Francisco with Washington in the positive x-direction

Also, the cross wind is blowing from north to south of 100 km/hr in y coordinate direction.

A.) Using Cartesian system of coordinates, the direction of flight for the plane to actually arrive in Washington can be calculated by using the formula

Tan Ø = y/x

Substitute y = 100 km/h and x = 800km/h

Tan Ø = 100/800

Tan Ø = 0.125

Ø = Tan^-1(0. 125)

Ø = 7.13 degrees north east.

Therefore, the direction of flight for the plane to actually arrive in Washington is 7.13 degree north east

B.) The speed in the San Francisco to Washington direction can be achieved by using pythagorean theorem

Speed = sqrt ( 800^2 + 100^2)

Speed = sqrt (650000)

Speed = 806.23 km/h

C.) Let us use the speed formula

Speed = distance / time

Substitute the speed and distance into the formula

806.23 = 6000/ time

Make Time the subject of formula

Time = 6000/806.23

Time = 7.44 hours

D.) If there is no cross wind,

Time = 6000/800

Time = 7.5 hour

Time difference = 7.5 - 7.44

Time difference = 0.06 hours

Given the circuit at the right in which the following values are used: R1 = 20 kΩ, R2 = 12 kΩ, C = 10 µ F, and ε = 25 V. You close the switch at t = 0. Find (a) the current in R1 and R2 at t=0, (b) the voltage across R1 after a long time. (Careful with this one.)

Answers

Answer:

a.) I = 7.8 × 10^-4 A

b.) V(20) = 9.3 × 10^-43 V

Explanation:

Given that the

R1 = 20 kΩ,

R2 = 12 kΩ,

C = 10 µ F, and

ε = 25 V.

R1 and R2 are in series with each other.

Let us first find the equivalent resistance R

R = R1 + R2

R = 20 + 12 = 32 kΩ

At t = 0, V = 25v

From ohms law, V = IR

Make current I the subject of formula

I = V/R

I = 25/32 × 10^3

I = 7.8 × 10^-4 A

b.) The voltage across R1 after a long time can be achieved by using the formula

V(t) = Voe^- (t/RC)

V(t) = 25e^- t/20000 × 10×10^-6

V(t) = 25e^- t/0.2

After a very long time. Let assume t = 20s. Then

V(20) = 25e^- 20/0.2

V(20) = 25e^-100

V(20) = 25 × 3.72 × 10^-44

V(20) = 9.3 × 10^-43 V

A horizontal turbine takes in steam with an enthalpy of h = 2.80 MJ/kg at 45 m/s. A steam-water mixture exits the turbine with an enthalpy of h = 1.55 MJ/kg at 20 m/s. If the heat loss to the surroundings from the turbine is 300 J/s, determine the power the fluid supplies to the turbine. The mass flow rate is 0.85 kg/s.

Answers

Answer:

The power that fluid supplies to the turbine is 1752.825 kilowatts.

Explanation:

A turbine is a device that works usually at steady state. Given that heat losses exists and changes in kinetic energy are not negligible, the following expression allows us to determine the power supplied by the fluid to the turbine by the First Law of Thermodynamics:

[tex]-\dot Q_{loss} - \dot W_{out} + \dot m \cdot \left[(h_{in}-h_{out}) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot (v_{in}^{2}-v_{out}^{2}) \right] = 0[/tex]

[tex]\dot W_{out} = -\dot Q_{loss} + \dot m \cdot \left[(h_{in}-h_{out})+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (v_{in}^{2}-v_{out}^{2}) \right][/tex]

If [tex]\dot Q_{loss} = 0.3\,kW[/tex], [tex]\dot m = 0.85\,\frac{kg}{s}[/tex], [tex]h_{in} = 2800\,\frac{kJ}{kg}[/tex], [tex]h_{out} = 1550\,\frac{kJ}{kg}[/tex], [tex]v_{in} = 45\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]v_{out} = 20\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then:

[tex]\dot W_{out} = -0.3\,kW + \left(0.85\,\frac{kg}{s} \right)\cdot \left\{\left(2800\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-1550\,\frac{kJ}{kg} \right)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left[\left(45\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(20\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right] \right\}[/tex]

[tex]\dot W_{out} = 1752.825\,kW[/tex]

The power that fluid supplies to the turbine is 1752.825 kilowatts.

A Rankine steam power plant is considered. Saturated water vapor enters a turbine at 8 MPa and exits at condenser at 10 kPa. The pump is considered isentropic and the turbine isentropic efficiency is 85%. If the net power output is 100 MW calculate the thermal efficiency of the plant and the mass flow rate of steam

Answers

Answer:

0.31

126.23 kg/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- Fluid: Water

- Turbine: P3 = 8MPa , P4 = 10 KPa , nt = 85%

- Pump: Isentropic

- Net cycle-work output, Wnet = 100 MW

Find:-

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle

- The mass flow rate of steam

Solution:-

- The best way to deal with questions related to power cycles is to determine the process and write down the requisite properties of the fluid at each state.

First process: Isentropic compression by pump

       P1 = P4 = 10 KPa ( condenser and pump inlet is usually equal )

      h1 = h-P1 = 191.81 KJ/kg ( saturated liquid assumption )

       s1 = s-P1 = 0.6492 KJ/kg.K

       v1 = v-P1 = 0.001010 m^3 / kg

       

       P2 = P3 = 8 MPa( Boiler pressure - Turbine inlet )

       s2 = s1 = 0.6492 KJ/kg.K   .... ( compressed liquid )

- To determine the ( h2 ) at state point 2 : Pump exit. We need to determine the wok-done by pump on the water ( Wp ). So from work-done principle we have:

   

                           [tex]w_p = v_1*( P_2 - P_1 )\\\\w_p = 0.001010*( 8000 - 10 )\\\\w_p = 8.0699 \frac{KJ}{kg}[/tex]

- From the following relation we can determine ( h2 ) as follows:

                          h2 = h1 + wp

                          h2 = 191.81 + 8.0699

                          h2 = 199.88 KJ/kg

                           

Second Process: Boiler supplies heat to the fluid and vaporize

- We have already evaluated the inlet fluid properties to the boiler ( pump exit property ).

- To determine the exit property of the fluid when the fluid is vaporized to steam in boiler ( super-heated phase ).

              P3 = 8 MPa

              T3 = ?  ( assume fluid exist in the saturated vapor phase )

              h3 = hg-P3 = 2758.7 KJ/kg

              s3 = sg-P3 = 5.7450 KJ/kg.K

- The amount of heat supplied by the boiler per kg of fluid to the water stream. ( qs ) is determined using the state points 2 and 3 as follows:

                          [tex]q_s = h_3 - h_2\\\\q_s = 2758.7 -199.88\\\\q_s = 2558.82 \frac{KJ}{kg}[/tex]

Third Process: The expansion ( actual case ). Turbine isentropic efficiency ( nt ).

- The saturated vapor steam is expanded by the turbine to the condenser pressure. The turbine inlet pressure conditions are similar to the boiler conditions.

- Under the isentropic conditions the steam exits the turbine at the following conditions:

             P4 = 10 KPa

             s4 = s3 = 5.7450 KJ/kg.K ... ( liquid - vapor mixture phase )

             

- Compute the quality of the mixture at condenser inlet by the following relation:

                           [tex]x = \frac{s_4 - s_f}{s_f_g} \\\\x = \frac{5.745- 0.6492}{7.4996} \\\\x = 0.67947[/tex]

- Determine the isentropic ( h4s ) at this state as follows:

                          [tex]h_4_s = h_f + x*h_f_g\\\\h_4_s = 191.81 + 0.67947*2392.1\\\\h_4_s = 1817.170187 \frac{KJ}{kg}[/tex]        

- Since, we know that the turbine is not 100% isentropic. We will use the working efficiency and determine the actual ( h4 ) at the condenser inlet state:

                         [tex]h4 = h_3 - n_t*(h_3 - h_4_s ) \\\\h4 = 2758.7 - 0.85*(2758.7 - 181.170187 ) \\\\h4 = 1958.39965 \frac{KJ}{kg} \\[/tex]

- We can now compute the work-produced ( wt ) due to the expansion of steam in turbine.

                        [tex]w_t = h_3 - h_4\\\\w_t = 2758.7-1958.39965\\\\w_t = 800.30034 \frac{KJ}{kg}[/tex]

- The net power out-put from the plant is derived from the net work produced by the compression and expansion process in pump and turbine, respectively.

                       [tex]W_n_e_t = flow(m) * ( w_t - w_p )\\\\flow ( m ) = \frac{W_n_e_t}{w_t - w_p} \\\\flow ( m ) = \frac{100000}{800.30034-8.0699} \\\\flow ( m ) = 126.23 \frac{kg}{s}[/tex]

Answer: The mass flow rate of the steam would be 126.23 kg/s

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle ( nth ) is defined as the ratio of net work produced by the cycle ( Wnet ) and the heat supplied by the boiler to the water ( Qs ):

                        [tex]n_t_h = \frac{W_n_e_t}{flow(m)*q_s} \\\\n_t_h = \frac{100000}{126.23*2558.82} \\\\n_t_h = 0.31[/tex]

Answer: The thermal efficiency of the cycle is 0.31

The velocity of the fluid particles on the x-axis is [tex]\left( {2\sqrt 2 } \right){x^2}t{\rm{ m/s}}[/tex]

Calculate the direction of flow.

[tex]\theta = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{B}{A}} )[/tex]

Here, θ is the flow from positive x-axis in a counterclockwise direction.

Substitute [tex]2{x^2}t[/tex] as A and [tex]2{x^2}t[/tex] as B.

[tex]\begin{array}{c}\\\theta = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{{2{x^2}t}}{{2{x^2}t}}} \right)\\\\ = {\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( 1 \right)\\\\ = 45^\circ \\\end{array}[/tex]

2. The block is released from rest at the position shown, figure 1. The coefficient of
kinetic friction over length ab is 0.22, and over length bc is 0.16. Using the
principle of work and energy, find the velocity with which the block passes
position c.

Answers

Answer:

Velocity = 4.73 m/s.

Explanation:

Work done by friction is;

W_f = frictional force × displacement

So; W_f = Ff * Δs = (μF_n)*Δs

where; magnitude of the normal force F_n is equal to the component of the weight perpendicular to the ramp i.e; F_n = mg*cos 24

Over the distance ab, Potential Energy change mgΔh transforms into a change in Kinetic energy and the work of friction, so;

mg(3 sin 24) = ΔKE1 + (0.22)*(mg cos 24) *(3).

Similarly, Over the distance bc, potential energy mg(2 sin 24) transforms to;

ΔKE2 + (0.16)(mg cos 24)(2).

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

1.22mg = ΔKE1 + 0.603mg

ΔKE1 = 1.22mg - 0.603mg

ΔKE1 = 0.617mg

Also,

0.813mg = ΔKE2 + 0.292mg

ΔKE2 = 0.813mg - 0.292mg

ΔKE2 = 0.521mg

Now total increase in Kinetic Energy is ΔKE1 + ΔKE2

Thus,

Total increase in kinetic energy = 0.617mg + 0.521m = 1.138mg

Putting 9.81 for g to give;

Total increase in kinetic energy = 11.164m

Finally, if v = 0 m/s at point a, then at point c, KE = ½mv² = 11.164m

m cancels out to give; ½v² = 11.164

v² = 2 × 11.164

v² = 22.328

v = √22.328

v = 4.73 m/s.

What conversion can be expected in the real reactor?

Answers

Answer:

The conversion in the real reactor is = 88%

Explanation:

conversion = 98% = 0.98

process rate = 0.03 m^3/s

length of reactor = 3 m

cross sectional area of reactor = 25 dm^2

pulse tracer test results on the reactor :

mean residence time ( tm) = 10 s and variance (∝2) = 65 s^2

note:  space time (t) =

t = [tex]\frac{A*L}{Vo}[/tex]   Vo = flow metric flow rate , L = length of reactor , A = cross sectional area of the reactor

therefore (t) = [tex]\frac{25*3*10^{-2} }{0.03}[/tex] = 25 s

since the reaction is in first order

X = 1 - [tex]e^{-kt}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-kt}[/tex] = 1 - X

kt = In [tex]\frac{1}{1-X}[/tex]

k = In [tex]\frac{1}{1-X}[/tex] / t  

X = 98% = 0.98 (conversion in PFR ) insert the value into the above equation then  

K = 0.156 [tex]s^{-1}[/tex]

Calculating Da for a closed vessel

calculate Peclet number Per using this equation

0.65 = [tex]\frac{2}{Per} - \frac{2}{Per^2} ( 1 - e^{-per})[/tex]

therefore

                        2            6.32        6.31          6.32

                        3            6.33        6.32         6.36

- We will define the two terms stated in the question " precision " and "accuracy"

- Precision refers to how close the values are to the sample mean. The dense cluster of data is termed to be more precise. We will use the knowledge of statistics and determine the sample standard deviation for each student.

- The mean measurement taken by each student would be as follows:

                       [tex]E ( A ) = \frac{6.35 +6.32+6.33+6.36}{4} \\\\E ( A ) = 6.34\\\\E ( B ) = \frac{6.31 +6.31+6.32+6.35}{4} \\\\E ( B ) = 6.3225\\\\E ( C ) = \frac{6.38 +6.32+6.36+6.36}{4} \\\\E ( C ) = 6.355\\[/tex]

- The precision can be quantize in terms of variance or standard deviation of data. Therefore, we will calculate the variance of each data:

 

                        [tex]Var ( A ) = \frac{6.35^2+6.32^2+6.33^2+6.36^2}{4} - 6.34^2\\\\Var ( A ) = 0.00025\\\\Var ( B ) = \frac{6.31^2+6.31^2+6.32^2+6.35^2}{4} - 6.3225^2\\\\Var ( B ) = 0.00026875\\\\Var ( C ) = \frac{6.38^2+6.32^2+6.36^2+6.36^2}{4} - 6.355^2\\\\Var ( C ) = 0.000475\\[/tex]

- We will rank each student sample data in term sof precision by using the values of variance. The smallest spread or variance corresponds to highest precision. So we have:

                   Var ( A )          <          Var ( B )        <    Var ( C )

                   most precise                                      Least precise

- Accuracy refers to how close the sample mean is to the actual data value. Where the actual volume of the liquid specimen was given to be 6.321 L. We will evaluate the percentage difference of sample values obtained by each student .

                       [tex]P ( A ) = \frac{6.34-6.321}{6.321}*100= 0.30058\\\\P ( B ) = \frac{6.3225-6.321}{6.321}*100= 0.02373\\\\P ( C ) = \frac{6.355-6.321}{6.321}*100= 0.53788\\[/tex]

- Now we will rank the sample means values obtained by each student relative to the actual value of the volume of liquid specimen with the help of percentage difference calculated above. The least percentage difference corresponds to the highest accuracy as follows:

                   P ( B )         <       P ( A )         <      P ( C )

            most accurate                                least accurate

In January 2012, a random survey of 1000 workers showed that 89% had paid leave. The resulting p-value is .0271; thus, the null hypothesis is rejected. It is concluded that there has been a decrease in the proportion of people, who have paid leave from 2011 to January 2012. What type of error is possible in this situation?
