If you see a red, a green, and a white light on another boat, what does this tell you?

Answers

Answer 1

A boat is approaching you head on.

The red and green lights are sidelights that are positioned on the port side (red) (left as facing the bow) and starboard (green) (right as facing the bow) side of the boat. Various white lights are required depending on the size of the boat, but generally, a white masthead light and stern light are required. See the US Coast Guard site in the link below for more specific information.

Hope this helps

Answer:

Engineering drawing abbreviations and symbols are used to communicate and detail the characteristics of an engineering drawing.

There are many abbreviations common to the vocabulary of people who work with engineering drawings in the manufacture and inspection of parts and assemblies.

Technical standards exist to provide glossaries of abbreviations, acronyms, and symbols that may be found on engineering drawings. Many corporations have such standards, which define some terms and symbols specific to them; on the national and international level, like BS8110 or Eurocode 2 as an example.

Explanation:

what's the maximum shear on a 3.0 m beam carrying 10 kN/m?

Answers

Answer:

max shear = R = V = 15 kN

Explanation:

given:

load = 10 kn/m

span = 3m

max shear = R = V = wL / 2

max shear = R = V = (10 * 3) / 2

max shear = R = V = 15 kN

Determine the length of the cantilevered beam so that the maximum bending stress in the beam is equivalent to the maximum shear stress.

Answers

The shear stress at any given point y1 along the height of the cross section is calculated by: where Ic = b·h3/12 is the centroidal moment of inertia of the cross section. The maximum shear stress occurs at the neutral axis of the beam and is calculated by: where A = b·h is the area of the cross section.

In this exercise we have to calculate the formula that will be able to determine the length of the cantilevered, like this:

[tex]\sigma_{max}C=\frac{M_{max}C}{I}[/tex]

So to determinated the maximum tensile and compreensive stress due to bending we can describe the formula as:

[tex]\sigma_b = \frac{MC}{I}[/tex]

Where,

[tex]\sigma_b[/tex] is the compressive stress or tensile stress[tex]M[/tex] is the B.M [tex]C[/tex] is the N.A distance[tex]I[/tex] is the moment of interior

So making this formula for the max, we have:

[tex]\sigma_c=\frac{MC}{I} \\\sigma_T=-\sigma_c=-\frac{MC}{I}\\\sigma_{max}=M_{max}\\[/tex]

With all this information we can put the formula as:

[tex]\sigma_{max}C=\frac{M_{max}C}{I}[/tex]

. A belt drive is desired to couple the motor with a mixer for processing corn syrup. The 25-hp electric motor is rated at 950 rpm and the mixer must operate as close to 250 rpm as possible. Select an appropriate belt size, commercially available sheaves, and a belt for this application. Also calculate the actual belt speed and the center distance.

Answers

Answer:

Hello the table which is part of the question is missing and below are the table values

For a 5V belt the available diameters are : 5.5, 5.8, 5.9, 6.2, 6.3, 6.6, 12.5, 13.9, 15.5, 16.1, 18.5, 20.1

Answers:

belt size = 140 in with diameter of 20.1n

actual speed of belt = 288.49 in/s

actual center distance = 49.345 in

Explanation:

Given data :

Electric motor (driver sheave) speed (w1) = 950 rpm

Driven sheave speed (w2) = 250 rpm

pick D1 ( diameter of driver sheave)  = 5.8 in  ( from table )

To select an appropriate belt size we apply the equation for the velocity ratio to get the diameter first

VR = [tex]\frac{w1}{w2}[/tex] = 950 / 250

also since the speed of  belt would be constant then ;

Vb = w1r1 = w2r2 ------- equation 1

r = d/2

substituting the value of r into equation 1

equation 2 becomes : [tex]\frac{w1}{w2} = \frac{d2}{d1}[/tex]    = VR

Appropriate belt size ( d2) can be calculated as

d2 = [tex]\frac{w1d1}{w2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{950 * 5.8}{250}[/tex] = 22.04

From the given table the appropriate belt size would be : 20.1 because it is the closest to the calculated value

next we have to determine the belt length /size

[tex]L = 2C + \frac{\pi }{2} ( d1+d2) + \frac{(d2-d1)^2}{4C}[/tex]

inputting  all the values into the above equation including the value of C as calculated below

L ≈ 140 in

Calculating the center distance

we use this equation to get the ideal center distance

[tex]d2< C_{ideal} < 3( d1 +d2)[/tex]

22.04 < c < 3 ( 5.8 + 20.1 )

22.04 < c < 77.7

the center distance is between 22.04 and 77.7  but taking an average value

ideal center distance would be ≈ 48 in

To calculate the actual center distance we use

[tex]C = \frac{B+\sqrt{B^2 - 32(d2-d1)^2} }{16}[/tex] -------- equation 3

B = [tex]4L -2\pi (d2 + d1 )[/tex]

inputting all the values into (B)

B = 140(4) - 2[tex]\pi[/tex]( 20.01 + 5.8 )

B ≈ 399.15 in

inputting all the values gotten Back to equation 3 to get the actual center distance

C = 49.345 in ( actual center distance )

Calculating the actual belt speed

w1 = 950 rpm = 99.48 rad/s

belt speed ( Vb) = w1r1 = w1 * [tex]\frac{d1}{2}[/tex]

                           = 99.48 * 5.8 / 2 = 288.49 in/s

Suppose that a wing component on an aircraft is fabricated from an aluminum alloy that has a plane-strain fracture toughness of 26.0 MPa m0.5. It has been determined that fracture results at a stress of 112 MPa when the maximum internal crack length is 8.6 mm. For this same component and alloy, compute the stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 3.0 mm.

Answers

Answer:

the required stress level  at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 3.0 mm is 189.66 MPa

Explanation:

From the given information; the objective is to compute the stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 3.0 mm.

The Critical Stress for a maximum internal crack can be expressed by the formula:

[tex]\sigma_c = \dfrac{K_{lc}}{Y \sqrt{\pi a}}[/tex]

[tex]Y= \dfrac{K_{lc}}{\sigma_c \sqrt{\pi a}}[/tex]

where;

[tex]\sigma_c[/tex] = critical stress required for initiating crack propagation

[tex]K_{lc}[/tex] = plain stress fracture toughness = 26 Mpa

Y = dimensionless parameter

a = length of the internal crack

given that ;

the maximum internal crack length is 8.6 mm

half length of the internal  crack will be 8.6 mm/2 = 4.3mm

half length of the internal  crack a = 4.3 × 10⁻³ m

From :

[tex]Y= \dfrac{K_{lc}}{\sigma_c \sqrt{\pi a}}[/tex]

[tex]Y= \dfrac{26}{112 \times \sqrt{\pi \times 4.3 \times 10 ^{-3}}}[/tex]

[tex]Y= \dfrac{26}{112 \times0.1162275716}[/tex]

[tex]Y= \dfrac{26}{13.01748802}[/tex]

[tex]Y=1.99731315[/tex]

[tex]Y \approx 1.997[/tex]

For this same component and alloy, we are to also compute the stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 3.0 mm.

when the length of the internal crack a = 3mm

half  length of the internal  crack will be 3.0 mm / 2 = 1.5 mm

half length of the internal  crack a =1.5 × 10⁻³ m

From;

[tex]\sigma_c = \dfrac{K_{lc}}{Y \sqrt{\pi a}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_c = \dfrac{26}{1.997 \sqrt{\pi \times 1.5 \times 10^{-3}}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_c = \dfrac{26}{0.1370877444}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_c =189.6595506[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_c =[/tex] 189.66 MPa

Thus; the required stress level  at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 3.0 mm is 189.66 MPa

While having a discussion, Technician A says that you should never install undersized tires on a vehicle. The vehicle will be lower, and the speedometer will no longer be accurate. Technician B says that the increase in engine rpm for a given speed will result in a decrease in fuel economy. Who is correct

Answers

Answer:

Both technician A and technician B are correct.

Explanation: Vehicle manufacturers always specify the size of the tires required for a given vehiclefor optimal efficiency,this will ensure that the speedometer is accurate and the level of the vehicle is good enough to ensure the vehicle works efficiently.

It is also a known fact that an increase in a vehicle's rpm(revolution per minute) will eventually lead to increased fuel consumption which means the fuel economy of the vehicle will be reduced making the vehicle less efficient in its fuel consumption.

The speed above which an airplane will experience structural damage when a load is applied, instead of stalling, is called the ______________ speed and varies with weight

Answers

Answer:

Maneuvering speed.

Explanation:

The speed above which an airplane will experience structural damage when a load is applied, instead of stalling, is called the maneuvering speed and varies with weight.

In aeronautical engineering, the maneuvering speed (Va) of an aircraft such as an aeroplane, helicopter, or jet is an airspeed limitation which is mainly selected by an aircraft designer.

Generally, at speeds higher or greater than the manoeuvring speed, aircraft pilots are advised not to attempt a full deflection of any flight control surface because it's capable of resulting in a damage to the structure of an aircraft.

If you're a pilot, to find the maneuvering speed of an aircraft, you should look at the flight manual of the aircraft or on the cockpit placard in the aircraft. The maneuvering speed of an aircraft is a calibrated speed and should not be exceeded by any pilot.

An inventor claims to have developed a heat pump that produces a 200-kW heating effect for a 293 K heatedzone while only using 75 kW of power and a heat source at 273 K. Justify the validity of this claim.

Answers

Answer:

From the calculation, we can see that the invention's COP of 2.67 does not exceed the maximum theoretical COP of 14.65. Hence his claim is valid and could be possible.

Explanation:

Heat generated Q = 200 kW

power input W = 75 kW

Temperature of heated region [tex]T_{h}[/tex] = 293 K

Temperature of heat source [tex]T_{c}[/tex] = 273 K

For this engine,

coefficient of performance COP = Q/W  = 200/75 = 2.67

The maximum theoretical COP obtainable for a heat pump is given as

COP = [tex]\frac{T_{h} }{T_{h} - T_{c} }[/tex] =  [tex]\frac{293 }{293 - 273 }[/tex] = 14.65

From the calculation, we can see that the invention's COP of 2.67 does not exceed the maximum theoretical COP of 14.65. Hence his claim is valid and could be possible.
