Justify why the project in the following scenario would be a good fit for the engineers, and outline steps needed to complete it

.
Situation: A team of engineers is being hired to develop lawn furniture that is light enough to move around but also capable of being anchored to a patio or other hard surface so that strong winds will not blow the objects around.

Answer:

. This is because the injuries can takes place at the time of work.

While lifting heavy objects at the time of work One should divide the loads so that it does not feels burden.

Aids like pulley, handles and wheels can be used to divide the load and weight should be carried in a way that it can be easily carried.

Get manual help with way to heavy loads and the postures should also be maintained at the time of lifting the objects.

Radioactive wastes are temporarily stored in a spherical container, the center of which is buried a distance of 10 m below the e

puteri [66]

Given:

outer radius, R' = 10 m

inner diameter, d = 2 m

inner radius, R = $\frac{d}{2}$ = 1 m

surface temperature, T' = $20^{\circ}C$

Thermal conductivity of soil, K = 0.52 W/mK

Solution:

To calculate the thermal temperature of conductor, T, we know amount of heat, Q is given by :

Q = $\frac{T - T'}{\frac{R' - R}{4\pi KRR'}}$

500 = $(T - 20)\frac{4\pi \times0.52\times 1\times 10}{10 - 1}$

T = 68.86 +20 = $88.865^{\circ}C$

Therefore, outside surface temperature is $88.865^{\circ}C$

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

professor190 [17]

Answer:

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Average time required = 60 seconds

Therefore,

The maximum capacity that can be accommodated on the system, μ = 60 veh/hr

Average Arrival rate, λ = 30 vehicles per hour

Now,

The average time spent by the vehicle is given as

⇒ $\frac{1}{\mu(1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu})}$

thus,

on substituting the respective values, we get

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(1-\frac{30}{60})}$

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(1-0.5)}$

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(0.5)}$

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{30}$ hr/veh

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{30}\times60$ min/veh

[ 1 hour = 60 minutes]

thus,

Average time spent by the vehicle = 2 min/veh

Hence,

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Water is flowing in a metal pipe. The pipe OD (outside diameter) is 61 cm. The pipe length is 120 m. The pipe wall thickness is

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

1113kN

Explanation:

The ouside diameter OD of the pipe is 61cm and the thickness T is 0.9cm, so the inside diameter ID will be:

Inside Diameter = Outside Diameter - Thickness

Inside Diameter = 61cm - 0.9cm = 60.1cm

Converting this diameter to meters, we have:

$60.1cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.601m$

This inside diameter is useful to calculate the volume V of water inside the pipe, that is the volume of a cylinder:

$V_{water}=\pi r^{2}h$

$V_{water}=\pi (\frac{0.601m}{2})^{2}*120m$

$V_{water}=113.28m^{3}$

The problem gives you the water density d as 1.0kg/L, but we need to convert it to proper units, so:

$d_{water}=1.0\frac{Kg}{L}*\frac{1L}{1000cm^{3}}*(\frac{100cm}{1m})^{3}$

$d_{water}=1000\frac{Kg}{m^{3}}$

Now, water density is given by the equation $d=\frac{m}{V}$ , where m is the water mass and V is the water volume. Solving the equation for water mass and replacing the values we have:

$m_{water}=d_{water}.V_{water}$

$m_{water}=1000\frac{Kg}{mx^{3}}*113.28m^{3}$

$m_{water}=113280Kg$

With the water mass we can find the weight of water:

$w_{water}=m_{water} *g$

$w_{water}=113280kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

$w_{water}=1110144N$

Finally we find the total weight add up the weight of the water and the weight of the pipe,so:

$w_{total}=w_{water}+w_{pipe}$

$w_{total}=1110144N+2500N$

$w_{total}=1112644N$

Converting this total weight to kN, we have:

$1112644N*\frac{0.001kN}{1N}=1113kN$

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

At L = 0.1 m

h⁻_lam = 11.004K W/m^1.5

h⁻_turb = 7.8848K W/m^1.8

At L = 1 m

h⁻_lam = 3.48K W/m^1.5

h⁻_turb = 4.975K W/m^1.8

Explanation:

Given that;

h_lam(x)= 1.74 W/m^1.5. Kx^-0.5

h_turb(x)= 3.98 W/m^1.8 Kx^-0.2

conditions for plates of length L = 0.1 m and 1 m

Now

Average heat transfer coefficient is expressed as;

h⁻ = 1/L ₀∫^L hxdx

so for Laminar flow

h_lam(x)= 1.74 . Kx^-0.5 W/m^1.5

from the expression

h⁻_lam = 1/L ₀∫^L 1.74 . Kx^-0.5 dx

= 1.74k / L { [x^(-0.5+1)] / [-0.5 + 1 ]}₀^L

= 1.74k/L = [ (x^0.5)/0.5)]⁰^L

= 1.74K × L^0.5 / L × 0.5

h⁻_lam= 3.48KL^-0.5

For turbulent flow

h_turb(x)= 3.98. Kx^-0.2 W/m^1.8

form the expression

1/L ₀∫^L 3.98 . Kx^-0.2 dx

= 3.98k / L { [x^(-0.2+1)] / [-0.2 + 1 ]}₀^L

= (3.98K/L) × (L^0.8 / 0.8)

h⁻_turb = 4.975KL^-0.2

Now at L = 0.1 m

h⁻_lam = 3.48KL^-0.5 = 3.48K(0.1)^-0.5 W/m^1.5

h⁻_lam = 11.004K W/m^1.5

h⁻_turb = 4.975KL^-0.2 = 4.975K(0.1)^-0.2

h⁻_turb = 7.8848K W/m^1.8

At L = 1 m

h⁻_lam = 3.48KL^-0.5 = 3.48K(1)^-0.5 W/m^1.5

h⁻_lam = 3.48K W/m^1.5

h⁻_turb = 4.975KL^-0.2 = 4.975K(1)^-0.2

h⁻_turb = 4.975K W/m^1.8

Therefore

At L = 0.1 m

h⁻_lam = 11.004K W/m^1.5

h⁻_turb = 7.8848K W/m^1.8

At L = 1 m

h⁻_lam = 3.48K W/m^1.5

h⁻_turb = 4.975K W/m^1.8
