You are the curator of a museum. The museum is running short of funds, so you decide to increase revenue. Should you increase or decrease the price of admission? Explain

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

If the museum is running short of funds, and you decide to increase revenue. An increase or decrease in the price of admission into the museum depends on the following:

1. If demand for admission into the museum is elastic there are two possible outcomes

a. An increase in the price of admission leads to a decrease in the quantity demand of admission into the museum

b. A decrease in price of admission into the museum leads to an increase in the quantity demand of admission into the museum.

This follows the law of demand which states that "the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded".

2. If the demand for admission into the museum is inelastic, then an increase in price will lead to an increase in revenue of the museum.

Therefore, before the curator increase the price of admission into the museum, he should first determine the price elasticity of demand of the museum.

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.

The water is cooled by air that enters at 0.75 kg/s and 300 K. If the overall heat transfer coefficient is 200 W/m2-K, what is the required heat transfer surface area?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Known: flow rate and inlet temperature for automobile radiator.

Overall heat transfer coefficient.

Find: Area required to achieve a prescribed outlet temperature.

Assumptions: (1) Negligible heat loss to surroundings and kinetic and

potential energy changes, (2) Constant properties.

Analysis: The required heat transfer rate is

q = (m c)h (T h,i - T h,o) = 0.05 kg/s (4209J / kg.K) 70K = 14,732 W

Using the ε-NTU method,

Cmin = Ch = 210.45 W / K

Cmax = Cc = 755.25W / K

Hence, Cmin/Cmx(Th,i - Th,o) = 210.45W / K(100K) = 21,045W

and

ε=q/qmax = 14,732W / 21,045W = 0.700

NTU≅1.5, hence

A=NTU(cmin / U) = 1.5 x 210.45W / K(200W) / m² .K) = 1.58m²

1. the air outlet is..

Tc,o = Tc,i + q / Cc = 300K + (14,732W / 755.25W / K) = 319.5K

2. using the LMTD approach ΔTlm = 51.2 K,, R=0.279 and P=0.7

hence F≅0.95 and

A = q/FUΔTlm = (14,732W) / [0.95(200W / m².K) 51.2K] = 1.51m²

. 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

A quartz window of thickness L serves as a viewing port in a furnace used for annealing steel. The inner surface (x=0) of the window is irradiated with a uniform heat flux q''o due to emission from hot gases in the furnace. A fraction, β, of this radiation may be assumed to be absorbed at the inner surface, while the remaining radiation is partially absorbed as it passes through the quartz. The volumetric heat generation due to this absorption may be described by an expression of the form q˙(x)=(1−β)q''oα^e−αx where α is the absorption coefficient of the quartz. Convection heat transfer occurs from the outer surface (x=L) of the window to ambient air at T[infinity] and is characterized by the convection coefficient h. Convection and radiation emission from the inner surface may be neglected, along with radiation emission from the outer surface.

A to C =  using pythagorean theorem

a² + b² = c²

a = A to B = 4

b = B to C = 5

c = A to C

c² = 4² + 5²

c = 6.4 km (A to C)

According to the scenario, the distance between town C from town A is found to be 6.40 Km.

Which background does this question depend on?

The background that this question depends on is known as the direction-based question. These types of questions completely depend on the distance of moving bodies like cars, persons, or any other objects as well with respect to the initial position.

According to the question,

The distance between town A to town B = 4 km.

The distance between town B to town C = 5 km.

Now, according to the Pythagoras theorem, the distance between town C to town A is as follows:

[tex]AC^2[/tex] = [tex]AB^2 +BC^2[/tex].

[tex]AC^2[/tex] = [tex]4^2+5^2[/tex]

[tex]AC^2[/tex] = 16 + 25 = 41.

AC = √41 = 6.40 km.

Therefore, the distance between town C from town A is found to be 6.40 Km.

Technician A says that proper footwear may include both leather and steel-toed shoes. Technician B says that leather-soled shoes provide slip resistance. Who is correct

Answers

Given:

We have given two statements.

Statement 1: Proper footwear may include both leather and steel-toed shoes.

Statement 2:  Leather-soled shoes provide slip resistance.

Find:

Which statement is true.

Solution:

A slip-resistant outsole is smoother and more slip-resistant than other outsole formulations when exposed to water and oil. A smoother outsole in rubber ensures a slip-resistant shoe can handle a slippery floor more effectively.

Slip resistant shoes have an interlocked tread pattern that does not close the water in, enabling the slip resistant sole to touch the floor to provide better slip resistance.

Leather-soled shoes don't provide slop resistance.

Therefore, both the Technicians are wrong.

From the statements made by both technician A and Technician B, we can say that; both technicians are wrong.

We are given the statements made by both technicians;

Technician A: Proper footwear may include both leather and steel-toed shoes.

Technician B: Leather-soled shoes provide slip resistance.

Now, they are talking about safety shoes to be worn in workshops.

A shoe that is Slip resistant will have rubber soles and tread patterns that can help to have better grip of wet or greasy floors.

This is the type of shoe that should be worn by technicians in the workshop.

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: 164.2253 MPa

Explanation:

First we find the half internal crack which is  = length of surface crack /2

so α = 8.6 /2 = 4.3mm ( 4.3×10⁻³m )

Now we find the dimensionless parameter using the critical stress crack propagation equation

∝ = K / Y√πα

stress level ∝ = 112Mpa

fracture toughness K = 26Mpa

dimensionless parameter Y = ?

SO working the formula

Y = K / ∝√πα

Y = 26 / 112 (√π × 4.3× 10⁻³)

Y = 1.9973

We are asked to find stress level for internal crack length of  4m

so half internal crack is  = length of surface crack /2

4/2 = 2mm ( 2 × 10⁻³)

from the previous formula critical stress crack propagation equation

∝ = K / Y√πα

∝ = 26 / 1.9973 √(π × 2 × 10⁻³)

∝ = 164.2253 Mpa

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]

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.

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

4. (a) increase (b) increase (c) increase (d) increase (e) increase
5. (a) increase (b) decrease (c) decrease (d) increase (e) decrease

Answers

Explanation:

1. increase This due to increase in the pore volume.

2.increase . This is due to the fact that more liquid phase will be present at the firing.

3. Increase. This increase is because of the fact that clay on cooling forms glass.Thus, gaining more strength as the liquid phase formed fills in pore volume.

4. Increase, Rate of corrosion depends upon the surface area exposed.Since, upon vitrification surface area would increase, therefore corrosion increases.

5. Increase , glass has higher thermal conductivity than the pores it fills.

Given the unity feedback system

G(s)= K(s+4)/s(s+1.2)(s+2)

Find:

a. The range of K that keeps the system stable
b. The value of K that makes the system oscillate
c. The frequency of oscillation when K is set to the value that makes the system oscillate

Answers

Answer:

A.) 0 > K > 9.6

B.) K = 9.6

C.) w = +/- 2 sqrt (3)

Explanation:

G(s)= K(s+4)/s(s+1.2)(s+2)

For a closed loop stability, we can analyse by using Routh - Horwitz analysis.

To make the pole completely imaginary, K must be equal to 9.6 Because for oscillations. Whereas, one pair of pole must lie at the imaginary axis.

Describe the similarities and differences between circuits with resistors combined in series and circuits with resistors combined in parallel

Answers

Answer:

from the below explanation...  we can say that, in the series circuit, flowing current remains the same at each part of the circuit. While in parallel circuits, the voltage across two endpoints of the branches is the same as the supplied voltage.

Explanation:

1.

The components in a series circuit are arranged in a single path from one end of supply to another end. However, the multiple components in a parallel circuit are arranged in multiple paths wrt the two end terminals of the battery.

2.

In a series circuit, a common current flows through all the components of the circuit. While in a parallel circuit, a different amount of current flows through each parallel branch of the circuit.

3.

In the series circuit, different voltage exists across each component in the circuit. Whereas in the parallel circuit, the same voltage exists across the multiple components in the circuit.

4.

A fault in one of the components of the series circuit causes hindrance in the operation of a complete circuit. As against fault in a single component in a parallel network do not hinder the functioning of another part of the circuit.

5.

The detection of a fault in case of a series circuit is difficult, but it is quite easy in parallel circuits.

6.

The equivalent resistance in case of a series circuit is always more than the highest value of resistance in the series connection. While the equivalent resistance in the parallel circuit is always less than any of the individual resistances in parallel combination.

Answers

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.

An exothermic reaction releases 146 kJ of heat energy and 3 mol of gas at 298 K and 1 bar pressure. Which of the following statements is correct?
A) ΔU=-138.57 kJ and ΔH=-138.57 kJ
B) ΔU=-153.43 kJ and ΔH=-153.43 kJ
C) ΔU=-138.57 kJ and ΔH=-146.00 kJ
D) ΔU=-153.43 kJ and ΔH=-146.00 kJ

Answers

Answer:

D) ΔU = -153.43 kJ and ΔH = -146.00 kJ

Explanation:

Given;

heat energy released by the exothermic reaction, ΔH = -146 kJ

number of gas mol, n = 3 mol

temperature of the gas, T = 298 K

Apply first law of thermodynamic

Change in the internal energy of the system, ΔU;

ΔU = ΔH- nRT

where;

R is gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

ΔU = -146kJ - (3 x 8.314 x 298)

ΔU = -146kJ - 7433 J

ΔU = -146kJ - 7.433 kJ

ΔU = -153.43 kJ

Therefore, the enthalpy change of the reaction ΔH is -146 kJ and change in the internal energy of the system is -153.43 kJ

D) ΔU = -153.43 kJ and ΔH = -146.00 kJ
