Answer:
stability; resistance; rigidity.
Explanation:
Okay, let us fill in the gap in the question above. Please note that the capitalized words are the missing words to fill in the gap.
"Unless a structural element is intended to be battered, sloped, or cambered (or some other non-conforming position), wood, steel, and concrete should always be installed and maintained STABILITY , RESISTANCE , and RIGIDITY. These conditions are critical in order to ensure maximum stability, structural performance and user satisfaction."
This question has to deal with buildings or say structural (civil) engineering. The definition to the missing words are given below:
STABILITY: Stability occurs when we have the center of gravity coinciding with the base of the structure.
RESISTANCE : Resistance simply means the 'tension' that is is how much the structure can resist an applied force.
RIGIDITY : RIGIDITY can also be associated with resistance and it is the property of a structure to resist bending.
The asymmetric roof truss is of the type used when a near normal angle of incidence of sunlight onto the south-facing surface ABC is desirable for solar energy purposes. The five vertical loads represent the effect of the weights of the truss and supported roofing materials. The 390-N load represents the effect of wind pressure. Determine the equivalent force-couple system at A. The couple is positive if counterclockwise, negative if clockwise. Also, compute the x-intercept of the line of action of the system resultant treated as a single force R.
Answer:
[tex]R= 337.75\ \bar i - 2275 \ \bar j \ \ N[/tex]
[tex]\sum M_A = -13650 \ N.m[/tex]
x = 6 m
Explanation:
From the diagram attached below :
Equivalent force:
[tex]R= -260 \bar j + 390 \ cos 30 \bar{ i} - 390 \ sin 30 \bar j - 520 \ \bar j- 520 \ \bar j- 520 \ \bar j- 260 \ \bar j[/tex]
[tex]R= 337.75\ \bar i - 2275 \ \bar j \ \ N[/tex]
The equivalent couple at point A is as follows:
[tex]\sum M_A = -390(3)-520(\frac{6}{2})- 520({6})- 520(6+\frac{6}{2}) -260(12)[/tex]
[tex]\sum M_A = -13650 \ N.m[/tex]
By applying the principles of momentum :
[tex]\sum M_A = Ry(x)[/tex]
[tex]- 13650 = - 2275 \ x[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{13650}{2275}[/tex]
x = 6 m

A commonly used strategy to improve the efficiency of a power plant is to withdraw steam from the turbine before it fully expands, reheat it in the boiler and send it to another turbine. Consider a case where 1 kg/s steam enters a turbine at 5MPa, 500 °C, and is expanded to 1 MPa pressure. At this point, the steam is withdrawn from the turbine, reheated back to 500 °C at constant pressure, and then expanded in another turbine to 50 kPa pressure. Calculate (a) The temperature at which steam was sent back for reheating, (b) Heat added during the reheati

Consider a Carnot heat pump cycle executed in a steady-flow system in the saturated mixture region using R-134a flowing at a rate of 0.264 kg/s. The maximum absolute temperature in the cycle is 1.15 times the minimum absolute temperature, and the net power input to the cycle is 5 kW. If the refrigerant changes from saturated vapor to saturated liquid during the heat rejection process, determine the ratio of the maximum to minimum pressures in the cycle.
Answer:
7.15
Explanation:
Firstly, the COP of such heat pump must be measured that is,
[tex]COP_{HP}=\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_L}[/tex]
Therefore, the temperature relationship, [tex]T_H=1.15\;T_L[/tex]
Then, we should apply the values in the COP.
[tex]=\frac{1.15\;T_L}{1.15-1}[/tex]
[tex]=7.67[/tex]
The number of heat rejected by the heat pump must then be calculated.
[tex]Q_H=COP_{HP}\times W_{nst}[/tex]
[tex]=7.67\times5=38.35[/tex]
We must then calculate the refrigerant mass flow rate.
[tex]m=0.264\;kg/s[/tex]
[tex]q_H=\frac{Q_H}{m}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{38.35}{0.264}=145.27[/tex]
The [tex]h_g[/tex] value is 145.27 and therefore the hot reservoir temperature is 64° C.
The pressure at 64 ° C is thus 1849.36 kPa by interpolation.
And, the lowest reservoir temperature must be calculated.
[tex]T_L=\frac{T_H}{1.15}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{64+273}{1.15}=293.04[/tex]
[tex]=19.89\°C[/tex]
the lowest reservoir temperature = 258.703 kpa
So, the pressure ratio should be = 7.15

Water enters the tubes of a cold plate at 70°F with an average velocity of 40 ft/min and leaves at 105°F. The diameter of the tubes is 0.25 in. Assuming 14 percent of the heat generated is dissipated from the components to the surroundings by convection and radiation and the remaining 86 percent is removed by the cooling water, determine the amount of heat generated by the electronic devices mounted on the cold plate. The properties of water at room temperature are rho = 62.1 lbm/ft3 and cp = 1.00 Btu/lbm·°F.
Answer:
The total amount of heat generated;Q' = 2067 Btu/h
Explanation:
We are given;
Water entering temperature;T1 = 70°F
Water leaving temperature;T2 = 105°F
average velocity of water;V = 40 ft/min
Diameter of tube;D = 0.25 in = 0.25/12 ft = 0.02083 ft
Water density;ρ = 62.1 lbm/ft³
cp = 1.00 Btu/lbm·°F.
Now, the mass flow rate of the water is calculated from;
m' = ρAV
Where ρ is density, A is area and V is velocity
Area = πD²/4 = π*0.02083²/4 = 0.00034077555 ft²
m' = 62.1 * 0.00034077555 * 40
m' = 0.8465 lbm/min
Converting to lbm/hr = 0.8465 * 60 = 50.79 lbm/hr
From energy balance equation, we have;
E_in = E_out
So,
Q_in,w + m'h1 = m'h2
Q_in,w = m'h2 - m'h1
Q_in,w = m'(h2 - h1)
Now, m'(h2 - h1) can be written as;
m'cp(T2 - T1).
Thus ;
Q_in,w = m'cp(T2 - T1)
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
Q_in,w = (50.79*1)(105 - 70)
Q_in,w = 1777.65 Btu/h
We are told that remaining 86 percent of heat generaged is removed by the cooling water. Thus;
The total amount of heat generated could be defined as;
Q' = Q_in,w/0.86
Q' = 1777.65/0.86
Q' = 2067 Btu/h
Suppose you have a coworker who is a high Mach in your workplace. What could you do to counter the behavior of that individual? Put the high Mach individual in charge of a project by himself, and don’t let others work with him. Set up work projects for teams, rather than working one on one with the high Mach person. Work with the high Mach individual one on one, rather than in a team setting. Explain to the high Mach individual what is expected of him and ask him to agree to your terms.
Answer:
To counter the behavior of a high Mach individual in my workplace, I could put the individual in charge of a project by himself, and don't let others work with him.
Explanation:
A high Mach individual is one who exhibits a manipulative and self-centered behavior. The personality trait is characterized by the use of manipulation and persuasion to achieve power and results. But, such individuals are hard to be persuaded. They do not function well in team settings and asking them to agree to terms is very difficult. "The presence of Machiavellianism in an organisation has been positively correlated with counterproductive workplace behaviour and workplace deviance," according to wikipedia.com.
Mach is an abbreviation for Machiavellianism. Machiavellianism is referred to in psychology as a personality trait which sees a person so focused on their own interests that they will manipulate, deceive, and exploit others to achieve their selfish goals. It is one of the Dark Triad traits. The others are narcissism and psychopathy, which are very dangerous behaviors.

Sludge wasting rate (Qw) from the solids residence time (Thetac = mcrt) calculation. Given the following information from the previous problem. The total design flow is 15,000 m3/day. Theoretical hydraulic detention time (Theta) = 8 hours. The NPDES limit is 25 mg/L BOD/30 mg/L TSS.
Assume that the waste strength is 170 mg/L BOD after primary clarification.
XA=MLSS = 2200 mg/L,
Xw = Xu = XR = 6,600 mg/L,
qc = 8 days.
Make sure you account for the solids in the discharge.
What volume of sludge (Qw=m3/day) is wasted each day from the secondary clarifiers?
Answer:
The volume of sludge wasted each day from the secondary classifiers is Qw = 208.33 m^3 / day
Explanation:
Check the file attached for a complete solution.
The volume of the aeration tank was first calculated, V = 5000 m^3 / day.
The value of V was consequently substituted into the formula for the wasted sludge flow. The value of the wasted sludge flow was calculated to be Qw = 208.33 m^3 / day.

Answer:
A.) 1mv = 2000N
B.) Impulse = 60Ns
C.) Acceleration = 66.67 m/s^2
Velocity = 4 m/s
Displacement = 0.075 metre
Absorbed energy = 60 J
Explanation:
A.) Using a mathematical linear equation,
Y = MX + C
Where M = (2000 - 0)/( 898 - 0 )
M = 2000/898
M = 2.23
Let Y = 2000 and X = 898
2000 = 2.23(898) + C
2000 = 2000 + C
C = 0
We can therefore conclude that
1 mV = 2000N
B.) Impulse is the product of force and time.
Also, impulse = momentum
Given that
Mass M = 30kg
Velocity V = 2 m/s
Impulse = M × V = momentum
Impulse = 30 × 2 = 60 Ns
C.) Force = mass × acceleration
F = ma
Substitute force and mass into the formula
2000 = 30a
Make a the subject of formula
a = 2000/30
acceleration a = 66.67 m/s^2
Since impulse = 60 Ns
From Newton 2nd law,
Force = rate of change in momentum
Where
change in momentum = -MV - (- MU)
Impulse = -MV + MU
Where U = initial velocity
60 = -60 + MU
30U = 120
U = 120/30
U = 4 m/s
Force = 2000N
Impulse = Ft
Substitute force and impulse to get time
60 = 2000t
t = 60/2000
t = 0.03 second
Using third equation of motion
V^2 = U^2 + 2as
Where S = displacement
4^2 = 2^2 + 2 × 66.67S
16 = 4 + 133.4S
133.4S = 10
S = 10/133.4
S = 0.075 metre
D.) Energy = 1/2 mV^2
Energy = 0.5 × 30 × 2^2
Energy = 15 × 4 = 60J

A deep drawing operation is performed on a sheet-metal blank that is 1/8 in thick. The height of the cup = 3.8 in and its diameter = 5.0 in (both inside dimensions). (a) Assuming the punch radius = 0, compute the starting diameter of the blank to complete the operation with no material left in the flange. (b) Is the operation feasible (ignoring the fact that the punch radius is too small)?
Answer:
a) Db = 10.05 in
b) The operation is not feasible
Explanation:
Let's begin by listing out the given variables:
Thickness = 1/8 in, Height (h) = 3.8 in,
Diameter (Dp) = 5 in ⇒ rp = Dp ÷ 2 = 5 ÷ 2 = 2.5 in
a) Area of cup = Area of wall + Area of base
A = 2πh(rp) + π(rp)²
A = (2π * 2.5 * 3.8) + (π * 2.5²)
A = 59.69 + 19.635 = 79.325 in²
A ≈ 79.33 in²
But π(rb)² = 79.33 ⇒ rb² = 79.33 ÷ π
rb² = 25.25
rb = 5.025 ⇒ Db = 2 * rb = 2 * 5.025 = 10.05 in
Db = 10.05 in
b) To calculate for feasibility, we use the formula, draw ratio equals diameter of the blank divided by diameter of the punch
Mathematically,
DR = Db ÷ Dp
DR = 10.05 ÷ 5 = 2.01
DR = 2.01
DR > 2 ⇒ the operation is not feasible
For an operation to be feasible, it must have a drawing ratio limit of 2 or lesser

at a time t(min) , M = mass of chemical = 1200 × t mg
concentration of chemical = 1200t / 600 = 2t mg / gallon
Explanation:
Since it is only fluid that is leaving and not chemical.
Find a negative feedback controller with at least two tunable gains that (1) results in zero steady state error when the input is a unit step (1/s). (and show why it works); (2) Gives a settling time of 4 seconds; (3) has 10% overshoot. Use the standard 2nd order approximation. Plot the step response of the system and compare the standard approximation with the plot.
Answer:
Gc(s) = [tex]\frac{0.1s + 0.28727}{s}[/tex]
Explanation:
comparing the standard approximation with the plot attached we can tune the PI gains so that the desired response is obtained. this is because the time requirement of the setting is met while the %OS requirement is not achieved instead a 12% OS is seen from the plot.
attached is the detailed solution and the plot in Matlab
Design a circuit that will tell whether a given month has 31 days in it. The month is specified by a 4-bit input, A3:0. For example, if the inputs are 0001, the month is January, and if the inputs are 1100, the month is December. The circuit output, Y, should be HIGH only when the month specified by the inputs has 31 days in it. However, if the input is not a valid month (such as 0 or 13) then the output is don’t care (can be either 0 or 1).
Answer:
see attachments
Explanation:
A Karnaugh map for the output is shown in the first attachment. The labeled and shaded squares represent the cases where Y = HIGH. The associated logic can be simplified to
Y = A3 xor A0
when the don't care at 1110 gives an output of HIGH.
__
The second attachment shows a logic diagram using a 4:1 multiplexer to do the decoding. A simple XOR gate would serve as well. If AND-OR-INV logic is required, that would be ...
Y = Or(And(A3, Inv(A0)), And(A0, Inv(A3)))
Consider this example of a recurrence relation. A police officer needs to patrol a gated community. He would like to enter the gate, cruise all the streets exactly once, and then leave by the same gate. What information would you need to determine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit
Answer:
the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate.
Explanation:
NB: kindly check below for the attached picture.
The term ''Euler circuit'' can simply be defined as the graph that shows the edge of K once in a finite way by starting and putting a stop to it at the same vertex.
The term "Hamiltonian Circuit" is also known as the Hamiltonian cycle which is all about a one time visit to the vertex.
Here in this question, the door is the vertex and the road is the edge.
The information needed to detemine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit is;
"the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate."
Check attachment for each type of circuit and the differences.

An air conditioning unit is used to provide cooling during summer for a house. If the air conditioner provides 450 kW cooling by using 150 kW electrical power, determine the coefficient of performance (COP) of the air conditioner. The outside temperature and inside temperature are 40 and 20°C, respectively. Using the inequality of Clausius determine if the cycle is possible. Determine the COP of an air conditioner working based on the Carnot cycle between the same temperature difference. Compare the COPs of the Carnot and actual air conditioners and comment on them based on your answer for the previous part (the inequality of

is sampled at a rate of to produce the sampled vector and then quantized. Assume, as usual, the minimum voltage of the dynamic range is represented by all zeros and the maximum value with all ones. The numbers should increase in binary order from bottom to top. Find the bit combination used to store each sample when rounded to the nearest integer between and (clipping may occur). Note: A partially-correct answer will not be recognized. You must answer all three correctly on the same
Answer:
d[0] = 11111111
d[1] = 11011101
d[2] = 1111011
Explanation:
Assume that the number of bits is 8. The voltage range input is -8 to 7 volts. The range is thus 15V, and the resolution is 15/2^8 = 0.0586 volts. We will first add +8 to the input to convert it to a 0-15v signal. Then find the equivalent bit representation. For 7.8 volts, the binary signal will be all 1's, since the max input voltage for the ADC is 7 volts. For 4.95, we have 4.95+8 = 12.95 volts. Thus, N = 12.95/0.0586 = 221. The binary representation is 11011101. For -0.8, we have -0.8 + 8 = 7.2. Thus, N = 7.2/0.0586 = 123. The binary representation is 1111011.
Thus,
d[0] = 11111111
d[1] = 11011101
d[2] = 1111011
Two Electric field vectors E1 and E2 are perpendicular to each other; obtain its base
vectors.
Answer:
<E1, E2>.
Explanation:
So, in the question above we are given that the Two Electric field vectors E1 and E2 are perpendicular to each other. Thus, we are going to have the i and the j components for the two Electric Field that is E1 and E2 respectively. That is to say the addition we give us a resultant E which is an arbitrary vector;
E = |E| cos θi + |E| sin θj. -------------------(1).
Therefore, if we make use of the components division rule we will have something like what we have below;
x = |E2|/ |E| cos θ and y = |E1|/|E| sin θ
Therefore, we will now have;
E = x |E2| i + y |E1| j.
The base vectors is then Given as <E1, E2>.
A flat site is being considered for a new school that will have a steel frame and brick façade. The steel columns will have a maximum load of 250 kips, and the planned column support will consist of a 6 foot by 6 foot square footing placed 2 feet below the ground surface (to the bottom of the footing). Subsurface conditions consist of a 15-foot-thick layer of uniform silty sand (unit weight = 122 pcf, soil modulus = 160,000 psf) over stiff clay (unit weight = 118 pcf, soil modulus = 230,000 psf).
