1) A pumping unit is used to recover oil. When the walking beam ABC is horizontal, the force acting in the wireline at the well

head is 250 lb. The horse-head C weighs 60 lb and has a center of gravity at Gc. The walking beam ABC has a weight of 130 lb and a center of gravity at GB, and the counterweight has a weight of 200 lb and a center of gravity at GW . The pitman, AD, is pin connected at its end and has negligible weight (a two-force member). Determine the torque M which must be exerted by the motor in order to overcome the force at the well head through the following steps.

Answer:

The torque M is 313 lb*ft

Explanation:

according to the attached diagram and taking the moment at point B:

∑MB = 0

F_{AD} sin70*(5)-(60*6)-250(6+1)=0\\F_{AD}(4.7)=360+1750\\F_{AD}=449lb

the moment at point E

∑ME = 0

-M+(449*3)-200*cos20(3+2.5)=0\\M=1347-1034=313lb*ft

A platinum resistance temperature sensor has a resistance of 120 Ω at 0℃ and forms one arm of a Wheatstone bridge. At this tempe
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer : 9.36ohms/ temperature

Explanation:

Expression for the variation of resistance of platinum with temperature

Rt= Ro(1+*t)

Rt= resistance @ t°C

Ro= resistance @ 0°C

*= temperature coefficient of resistance

Calculate the change in resistance by putting 120ohms for Ro,

0.0039/K for *

20°C for t

Using this formula:

Rt = Ro(1+*t)

Rt- Ro = Ro*t

= (120ohms)(0.0039/K)(20°C)

= 9.36ohms/K

The legend that Benjamin Franklin flew a kite as a storm approached is only a legend—he was neither stupid nor suicidal. Suppose
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: 0.93 mA

Explanation:

In order to calculate the current passing through the water layer, as we have the potential difference between the ends of the string as a given, assuming that we can apply Ohm’s law, we need to calculate the resistance of the water layer.

We can express the resistance as follows:

R = ρ.L/A

In order to calculate the area A, we can assume that the string is a cylinder with a circular cross-section, so the Area of the water layer can be written as follows:

A= π(r22 – r12) = π( (0.0025)2-(0.002)2 ) m2 = 7.07 . 10-6 m2

Replacing by the values, we get R as follows:

R = 1.4 1010 Ω

Applying Ohm’s Law, and solving for the current I:

I = V/R = 130 106 V / 1.4 1010 Ω = 0.93 mA

In which of the following branches of engineering is the practice not restricted?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

a) civil engineering.

Explanation:

Civil engineering is a professional engineering program that deals with the construction, design, and maintenance of all the natural and man-made environments including dams, buildings, railways, and roads.

Civil engineering is the branch of engineering that is the practice not restricted because civil engineer is not restricted to academic profession but practice in designing and construction can make someone a professional civil engineer.

Hence, the correct answer is "a)."

Explain why the fundamental software engineering principles of process, dependability, requirements management, and reuse are re
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

1. Costs and frequency of change.

2. The most important ‘non-functional’ requirements. Different systems have different priorities for non-functional requirements.

3. The software lifetime and delivery schedule.

Explanation:

The process of requirement gathering is required in both generic and customized software.

• A document to define the development process is required in all type of software application.

• Updating is required in each type of software. For doing so, new version of each type of software is released.

• Maintenance is an important part of software development. It is required in each type of application development.

• Software has some minimum requirements to execute. So, platform dependability is considered in all software development.
