Identify the four engineering economy symbols and their values from the following problem statement. Use a question mark with th

e symbol whose value is to be determined. Thompson Mechanical Products is planning to set aside $150,000 now for possibly replacing its large synchronous refiner motors whenever it becomes necessary. If the replacement is not needed for 7 years, how much will the company have in its investment set-aside account, provided it achieves a rate of return of 11% per year?

Answer:

The company will have $311,424 in its investment set-aside account.

Explanation:

To determine the amount of money that the company will have after 7 years with an interest rate of 11% per year, we must calculate the price to start with an increase of 11%, and then repeat the operation until reaching seven years:

Year 0: 150,000

Year 1: 150,000 x 1.11 = 166,500

Year 2: 166,000 x 1.11 = 184,815

Year 3: 184,815 x 1.11 = 205,144.65

Year 4: 205,144.65 x 1.11 = 227,710.56

Year 5: 227,710.56 x 1.11 = 252,758.72

Year 6: 252,758.72 x 1.11 = 280,562.18

Year 7: 280,562.18 x 1.11 = 311,424

Semmy [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Option A was the only option that did not have a sentence fragment. All the other choices were fragments because they interrupted the flow of the sentence. A sentence fragment means that if you started reading where the period is, you would understand everything about the sentence and it would be clear. You cannot have an incomplete sentence that does not have background information. An example would be: And that is how you install it. This leaves information unanswered, such as what the subject of the sentence is, or in other words, what you were installing. Another indicator that this was a sentence fragment was that the sentence began with the word "And." Sentence fragments very commonly start with the word and, because that word shows that it is a continuation of a topic.

A converging-diverging nozzle is designed to operate with an exit Mach number of 1.75 . The nozzle is supplied from an air reser
Flura [38]

Answer:

a. 4.279 MPa

b. 3.198 MPa to 4.279 MPa

c. 0.939 MPa

d. Below 3.198 MPa

Explanation:

From the given parameters

M_{exit} = 1.75 MPa  

M at 1.6 MPa gives A_{exit}/A* = 1.2502

M at 1.8 MPa gives  A_{exit}/A* = 1.4390

Therefore, by interpolation, we have M_{exit} = 1.75 MPa  gives A

However, we shall use M_{exit} = 1.75 MPa and A

Similarly,

P_{exit}/P₀ = 0.1878

a) Where the nozzle is choked at the throat there is subsonic flow in the following diverging part of the nozzle. From tables, we have

A_{exit}/A* = 1.387. by interpolation M

Therefore P_{exit} = P₀ × P

Which shows that the nozzle is choked for back pressures lower than 4.279 MPa

b) Where there is a normal shock at the exit of the nozzle, we have;

M₁ = 1.75 MPa, P₁ = 0.1878 × 5 = 0.939 MPa

Where the normal shock is at M₁ = 1.75 MPa, P₂/P₁ = 3.406

Where the normal shock occurs at the nozzle exit, we have

P_b = 3.406\times 0.939 = 3.198 MPa

Where the shock occurs t the section prior to the nozzle exit from the throat, the back pressure was derived as P_b = 4.279 MPa

Therefore the back pressure value ranges from 3.198 MPa to 4.279 MPa

c) At M_{exit} = 1.75 MPa  and P

d) Where the back pressure is less than 3.198 MPa according to isentropic flow relations supersonic flow will exist at the exit plane

During an experiment conducted in a room at 25°C, a laboratory assistant measures that a refrigerator that draws 2 kW of power h
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Not reasonable.

Explanation:

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to the performance of a reversible refrigerator. The coefficient of performance is basically defined as the ratio between the heating or cooling provided and the electricity consumed. The higher coefficients are equivalent to lower operating costs. The coefficient can be greater than 1, because it is a percentage of the output: losses, other than the thermal efficiency ratio: input energy. For a reversible refrigerator the coefficient is given by

COP_{R,rev} = \frac{1}{\frac{T_1}{T_2}-1}

Where,

T_1 =High temperature

T_2 =Low Temperature

With our values previous given we can find it:

T_2 = -30\°C = (-30+273)

T_2 = 243K

T_1 = 25\°C = (25+273)

T_1 = 298K

With these values we can now calculate the coefficient of performance:

COP_{R,rev} = \frac{1}{\frac{298}{243}-1}

COP_{R,rev} = 4.42

At the same time we can calculate the work consumption of the refrigerator, this is

W = \dot{W}\Delta t

Where,

\dot{W} = Required power input

t = time to remove heat from a cool to water medium

W = 2kJ/s * 20 min

W = 2kJ/s * 1200s

W = 2400kJ

In this way we can calculate the coefficient of the refrigerator directly:

COP_R = \frac{Q_L}{W}

Where,

Q = Amoun of heat rejected

COP_R = \frac{30000}{2400}

COP_R = 12.5

Comparing the values of both coefficients we have that the experiments are NOT reasonable, because the coefficient of a refrigerator is high compared to  coefficient of reversible refrigerator.
