A cylindrical block of wood 1 m in diameter and 1 m long has a specific weight of 7500 N/m^3. Will it float in water with its axis vertical?
Answer:
The block will float with its axis vertical.
Explanation:
For it to float, the upward force on the cylindrical block must be equal to the weight of an equal volume of water. Also, this upward force must be greater than or equal to the weight of the cylindrical block for it to float.
So, weight of cylindrical block, W = specific weight × volume
specific weight = 7500 N/m³
volume = πd²h/4 where d = diameter of block and h = height of block
volume = π(1 m)² × 1 m/4 = π/4 m³ = 0.7854 m³
W = 7500 N/m³ × 0.7854 m³ = 5890.5 N
Since the density of water = 1000 kg/m³, its specific weight W' = 1000 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² = 9800 N/m³
Since the volume of the cylinder = volume of water displaced, the weight of water displaced W' = upward force = specific weight of water × volume of water displaced = 9800 N/m³ × 0.7854 m³ = 7696.92 N
Since W' = 7696.92 N > W = 5890.5 N, the block will float with its axis vertical since the upward force is greater than the weight of the cylindrical block.
A turbine of a fossil fuel burning installation delivers 1,500 hp of mechanical energy to a generator. The generator then converts 80.0% of the mechanical energy into electrical energy. If the terminal potential difference of the generator is 1790 V, what current does it deliver (in A)
Answer:
The generator delivers current of 500.11 A
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
mechanical energy delivered to the generator = 1500 hp
efficiency η = 80.0 %
terminal potential difference of the generator = 1790 V
we know that;
1 hp = 746 W
so
the mechanical energy delivered to the generator will be
Generator Input = ( 1500 × 746 )W = 1119000 W
So the generator output will be;
Generator Output = Generator Input × η
we substitute
Generator Output = 1119000 W × 80.0 %
Generator Output = 1119000 W × 0.8
Generator Output = 895200 W
So the Current will be;
[tex]I[/tex] = Generator Output / terminal potential difference of the generator
we substitute
[tex]I[/tex] = 895200 W / 1790 V
[tex]I[/tex] = 500.11 A
Therefore, The generator delivers current of 500.11 A
The allowable tensile stress for a 6.25 mm diameter bolt with a thread length of 5.5 mm is 207 MPa. The allowable shear stress of the material is 103 MPa. Where and how will such a bolt be most likely to fail if placed in tension
Answer:
At the threads due to shear.
Explanation:
Given :
The allowable tensile stress = 207 MPa
The allowable shear stress = 103 MPa
If a tensile force is applied, the maximum shear stress occurs at the threads of the bolt. The bolt is most likely to fail at the critical section. The critical cross section is the section having the minimum cross sectional area.
The portion of the bolt having threads has the minimum cross sectional area.
So when the bolt is applied with a tensile force, failure is most likely to take place at the threads due to the shearing force.

An air conditioner removes heat steadily from a house at a rate of 750 kJ/min while drawing electric power at a rate of 5.25 kW. Determine (a) the COP of this air conditioner and (b) the rate of heat transfer to the outside air.Answers:(a) 2.38, (b) 1065 kJ/min
Answer:
a) the COP of this air conditioner is 2.38
b) the rate of heat transfer to the outside air is 1065 kJ/min
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
[ Outdoor ] ← Q[tex]_H[/tex] [ W[tex]_{net, in[/tex] ] Q[tex]_L[/tex] ← [ House ]
Rate of heat removed from the house; Q[tex]_L[/tex] = 750 kJ/min = ( 750 kJ/min × ( 1 kW / 60 kJ/min ) ) = 12.5 kW
Net-work input; W[tex]_{net, in[/tex] = 5.25 kW
a) The coefficient of performance of the air conditioner; COP.
COP = Q[tex]_L[/tex] / W[tex]_{net, in[/tex]
we substitute
COP = 12.5 kW / 5.25 kW
COP = 2.38
Therefore, the COP of this air conditioner is 2.38
b) the rate of heat transfer to the outside air.
Q[tex]_H[/tex] = Q[tex]_L[/tex] + W[tex]_{net[/tex]
we substitute
Q[tex]_H[/tex] = 12.5 kW + 5.25 kW
Q[tex]_H[/tex] = 17.75 kW
Q[tex]_H[/tex] = ( 17.75 × 60 ) kJ/min
Q[tex]_H[/tex] = 1065 kJ/min
Therefore, the rate of heat transfer to the outside air is 1065 kJ/min

A ceramic specimen with an elastic modulus of 300 GPa is under a tensile stress of 800 MPa. Will it fracture if its most severe flaw is an internal crack of 0.30 mm long with a tip radius of curvature in the amount of 0.0015 mm? Please justify your conclusion. (Hint: Compare the largest stress in the specimen around the crack to the theoretical strength which is roughly E/10).
Answer:
16Gpa < 30 Gpa
there would be no fracture
Explanation:
fracture can occur if the maximum strength at the top of the biggest flaw is more than the theoretical fracture
to get the theoretical strength =
e/10 = 300/10
= 30 Gpa
we get the magnitude at the buggest flaw
= 2σ√a/ρt
σ = 800
ρτ = 0.0015
a= 0.3/2
[tex]=2*800\sqrt{\frac{\frac{0.3}{2} }{0.0015} }[/tex]
= [tex]=2*800*\sqrt{100} \\=2*800*10\\=16000MPa[/tex]
= 16Gpa < 30 Gpa
the fracture is not going to happen given that the maximum strenght is smaller than the theoretical fracture strength.

Initial Temperature T_1=70 F
Final Temperature [tex]T_2=250pisa =114.94F[/tex]
Efficiency [tex]E=75\%=0.75[/tex]
Generally the equation for Work-done is mathematically given by
[tex]W=\int C_pT[/tex]
[tex]W=10.03(114.94-70 )+0.0184((114.94)^2-70^2 )[/tex]
[tex]W=527.21btu/ibmole[/tex]
[tex]W=11.982btu/ibm[/tex]
Generally the equation for Efficiency is mathematically given by
[tex]E=\frac{isotropic Power}{Actual P'}[/tex]
[tex]E=\frac{P}{P'}[/tex]
Since
Isotropic Power
[tex]P=0.0167*11.982btu/ibm[/tex]
[tex]P=0.2btu/s[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]P'=\frac{0.2}{0.75}[/tex]
[tex]P'=0266btu/s[/tex]

An intelligence signal is amplified by a 65% efficient amplifier before being combined with a 250W carrier to generate an AM signal. If it is desired to operate at 50% modulation, what must be the dc input power to the final intelligence signal amplifier
Answer:
"192.3 watt" is the right answer.
Explanation:
Given:
Efficient amplifier,
= 65%
or,
= 0.65
Power,
[tex]P_c=250 \ watt[/tex]
As we know,
⇒ [tex]P_t=P_c(1+\frac{\mu^2}{2} )[/tex]
By putting the values, we get
[tex]=P_c(1+\frac{1}{2} )[/tex]
[tex]=1.5 \ P_c[/tex]
Now,
⇒ [tex]P_i=(P_t-P_c)[/tex]
[tex]=1.5 \ P_c-P_c[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{P_c}{2}[/tex]
DC input (0.65) will be equal to "[tex](\frac{P_c}{2} )[/tex]".
hence,
The DC input power will be:
= [tex]\frac{250}{2}\times \frac{1}{0.65}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{125}{0.65}[/tex]
= [tex]192.3 \ watt[/tex]

Technician A says white smoke in the exhaust of a diesel engine can be the result of a cylinder misfire in a warm engine. Technician B says blue smoke in the exhaust of a diesel engine can be caused by scored cylinder walls. Who is correct?
Answer:
Both
Explanation:
Because of water, fuel does not burn completely. This brings about water fumes that are white in color and looks like white smoke. If engine is cold and water is heating, it leads to steam formation like water vapor. The white times are because of not firing properly in the heated engine. Technician A is right.
Blue fine is caused by this scoring. It is also caused by dirty oil. Technician b is right too

Explanation:
A particle which moves in two-dimensional curvilinear motion has coordinates in millimeters which vary with time t in seconds according to X=2t^2 +3t–1 and y = 5t - 2. Determine the coordinates of the center of curvature C at time t = 1s.
Answer:
The answer is "22.501,-22.899"
Explanation:
Just as in the previous problems find the angle the velocity makes with the x-axis and radius of curvature.
[tex]x= 2t^2 + 3t — 1\\\\y=5t-2\\\\x=4t+3\\\\y=5\\\\\tan \alpha (t = 1) =\frac{y}{x}=\frac{5}{4+3}=\frac{5}{7} \to alpha=35.54^{\circ}\\\\[/tex]
For the radius of curvature, we can use the expression from the last two problems, but first express the position and derivatives as y(x).
[tex]y(x)=2(\frac{y+2}{5})^2+3(\frac{y+2}{5})-1=\frac{1}{25}(2y^2+23y+13)\\\\y'(x)=\frac{1}{25}(4y+23)\\\\y''(x)=\frac{4}{25}\\\\\rho(t=1)=\frac{[1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2]^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}}=\frac{(1+(\frac{35}{25})^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{4}25=31.828[/tex]
The position for the center of the radius of curvature [tex]\vec{r}[/tex], (finding this expression is easy and is left as an exercise for the reader.)
[tex]\to \vec{r} = \hat{x}(x + \rho \sin \alpha) + \hat{y}(y- \rho \cos \alpha)\\\\= (4 + 18.501, 3-25.899)\\\\=(22.501, -22.899)[/tex]
Water flows through a converging pipe at a mass flow rate of 25 kg/s. If the inside diameter of the pipes sections are 7.0 cm and 5.0 cm, find the volume flow rate and the average velocity in each pipe section.
Answer:
volumetric flow rate = [tex]0.0251 m^3/s[/tex]
Velocity in pipe section 1 = [tex]6.513m/s[/tex]
velocity in pipe section 2 = 12.79 m/s
Explanation:
We can obtain the volume flow rate from the mass flow rate by utilizing the fact that the fluid has the same density when measuring the mass flow rate and the volumetric flow rates.
The density of water is = 997 kg/m³
density = mass/ volume
since we are given the mass, therefore, the volume will be mass/density
25/997 = [tex]0.0251 m^3/s[/tex]
volumetric flow rate = [tex]0.0251 m^3/s[/tex]
Average velocity calculations:
Pipe section A:
cross-sectional area =
[tex]\pi \times d^2\\=\pi \times 0.07^2 = 3.85\times10^{-3}m^2[/tex]
mass flow rate = density X cross-sectional area X velocity
velocity = mass flow rate /(density X cross-sectional area)
[tex]velocity = 25/(997 \times 3.85\times10^{-3}) = 6.513m/s[/tex]
Pipe section B:
cross-sectional area =
[tex]\pi \times d^2\\=\pi \times 0.05^2= 1.96\times10^{-3}m^2[/tex]
mass flow rate = density X cross-sectional area X velocity
velocity = mass flow rate /(density X cross-sectional area)
[tex]velocity = 25/(997 \times 1.96\times10^{-3}) = 12.79m/s[/tex]
