The moment of inertia of the pendulum about an axis perpendicular to the page and passing through G will be 1.5 kgm².
A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. The motion of a pendulum is a type of simple harmonic motion, which means that the pendulum moves back and forth in a regular, periodic fashion. The moment of inertia of an object is a measure of the object's resistance to change in its rotational motion.
To determine the location of the center of mass of the pendulum, we need to find the mass of each part and the distance from the center of mass of each part to point G.
The mass of rod AB is 3 kg/m * 1 m = 3 kg
The mass of rod OC is also 3 kg/m * 1 m = 3 kg
The mass of the plate is 12 kg/m2 * 1 = 12 kg
The distance from the center of mass of rod AB to point G is 0.5 m (since the rod is 1 m long and point G is at the midpoint of the rod)
The distance from the center of mass of rod OC to point G is also 0.5 m
The distance from the center of mass of the plate to point G is 0.5 m (since the plate is 1 m wide and point G is at the midpoint of the plate)
Now we can use the formula for the location of the center of mass:
yG = (3 kg * 0.5 m + 3 kg * 0.5 m + 12 kg * 0.5 m) / (3 kg + 3 kg + 12 kg) = 0.5 m
To calculate the moment of inertia of the pendulum about an axis perpendicular to the page and passing through G, we can use the formula for the moment of inertia of a rod about its center of mass:
[tex]I = (1/12) * m * L^2[/tex]
For rod AB:
[tex]I = (1/12) * 3 kg * (1 m)^2 = 0.25 kg*m^2\\[/tex]
For rod OC:
[tex]I = (1/12) * 3 kg * (1 m)^2 = 0.25 kg*m^2[/tex]
For the plate:
I = (1/12) * 12 kg * (1 m)^2 = 1 kg*m²
The total moment of inertia of the pendulum is the sum of the moments of inertia of the individual parts:
I = 0.25 kgm^2 + 0.25 kgm^2 + 1 kgm^2 = 1.5 kgm²

Define;
i) Voltage
ii) Current
iii) Electrical Power
iv) Electrical Energy
Answer:
I) Voltage - is the pressure from an electrical circuit's power source that pushes charged electrons (current) through a conducting loop, enabling them to do work such as illuminating a light. In brief, voltage = pressure, and it is measured in volts (V).
II) Current - is the movement of electrons through a wire. Electric current is measured in amperes (amps) and refers to the number of charges that move through the wire per second. If we want current to flow directly from one point to another, we should use a wire that has as little resistance as possible.
III) Electrical Power - is the rate, per unit time, at which electrical energy is transferred by an electric circuit. The SI unit of power is the watt, one joule per second. Electric power is usually produced by electric generators, but can also be supplied by sources such as electric batteries.
IV) Electrical Energy - is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge. Energy is the ability to do work or apply force to move an object. In the case of electrical energy, the force is electrical attraction or repulsion between charged particles.

Refrigerant 134a enters the evaporator of a refrigeration system operating at steady state at -16oC and a quality of 20% at a velocity of 5 m/s. At the exit, the refrigerant is a saturated vapor at -16oC. The evaporator flow channel has constant diameter of 1.7 cm. Determine the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, in kg/s, and the velocity at the exit, in m/s.
Answer:
mass flow rate = 0.0534 kg/sec
velocity at exit = 29.34 m/sec
Explanation:
From the information given:
Inlet:
Temperature [tex]T_1 = -16^0\ C[/tex]
Quality [tex]x_1 = 0.2[/tex]
Outlet:

Explanation:
A cylindrical rod of brass originally 10 mm in diameter is to be cold worked by drawing. The circular cross section will be maintained during deformation. A cold-worked tensile strength in excess of 380 MPa and a ductility of at least 15 %EL are desired. Furthermore, the final diameter must be 7.5 mm. Explain how this may be accomplished. Use the graphs given in previous question.
Answer:
Explanation:
From the information given:
original diameter [tex]d_o[/tex] = 10 mm
final diameter [tex]d_f =[/tex] 7.5 mm
Cold work tensile strength of brass = 380 MPa
Recall that;
[tex]\text {The percentage CW }= \dfrac{\pi (\dfrac{d_o}{2})^2 - \pi(\dfrac{d_f}{2})^2 }{\pi(\dfrac{d_o}{2})^2} \times 100[/tex]
[tex]\implies \dfrac{\pi (\dfrac{10}{2})^2 - \pi(\dfrac{7.5}{2})^2 }{\pi(\dfrac{10}{2})^2} \times 100[/tex]
[tex]\implies43.87\% \ CW[/tex]
→ At 43.87% CW, Brass has a tensile strength of around 550 MPa, which is greater than 380 MPa.
→ At 43.87% CW, the ductility is less than 5% EL, As a result, the conditions aren't met.
To achieve 15% EL, 28% CW is allowed at most
i.e
The lower bound cold work = 15%
The upper cold work = 28%
The average = [tex]\dfrac{15+28}{2}[/tex] = 21.5 CW
Now, after the first drawing, let the final diameter be [tex]d_o^'[/tex]; Then:
[tex]4.5\% \ CW = \dfrac{\pi (\dfrac{d_o^'}{2})^2 - (\dfrac{7.5}{2})^2}{\pi (\dfrac{d_o^'}{2})^2}\times 100[/tex]
By solving:
[tex]d_o^'} = 8.46 mm[/tex]
To meet all of the criteria raised by the question, we must first draw a wire with a diameter of 8.46 mm and then 21.5 percent CW on it.

The distribution of SAT scores of all college-bound seniors taking the SAT in 2014 was approximately normal with mean μ=1497 and standard deviation σ=322. A certain test-retake preparation course is designed for students whose SAT scores are in the lower 25%, percent of those who take the test in a given year. What is the maximum SAT score in 2014 that meets the course requirements?
Answer:
1279
Explanation:
We have the mean u = 1497
Standard deviation sd = 322
We find the x distribution using 25%
P(Z<z) = 0.25
Z = -0.675
From here we use the formula for z score
X = z(sd) + u
X = -0.675*322 + 1497
X = -217.35 + 1497
X = 1279.6
Which is approximately 1279
So we conclude that the maximum sat scores in year 2014that meets with the requirements of this course is 1279

If it is struck by a rigid block having a weight of 550 lblb and traveling at 2 ft/sft/s , determine the maximum stress in the cylinder. Neglect the mass of the cylinder. Express your answer to three significant figures and include appropriate units.
This question is incomplete, The missing image is uploaded along this answer below;
Answer:
the maximum stress in the cylinder is 3.23 ksi
Explanation:
Given the data in the question and the diagram below;
First we determine the initial Kinetic Energy;
T = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]mv²
we substitute
⇒ T = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × (550/32.2) × (2)²
T = 34.16149 lb.ft
T = ( 34.16149 × 12 ) lb.in
T = 409.93788 lb.in
Now, the volume will be;
V = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex]d²L
from the diagram; d = 0.5 ft and L = 1.5 ft
so we substitute
V = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex] × ( 0.5 × 12 in )² × ( 1.5 × 12 in )
V = 508.938 in³
So by conservation of energy;
Initial energy per unit volume = Strain energy per volume
⇒ T/V = σ²/2E
from the image; E = 6.48(10⁶) kip
so we substitute
⇒ 409.93788 / 508.938 = σ²/2[6.48(10⁶)]
508.938σ² = 5,312,794,924.8
σ² = 10,438,982.5967
σ = √10,438,982.5967
σ = 3230.9414
σ = 3.2309 ksi ≈ 3.23 ksi { three significant figures }
Therefore, the maximum stress in the cylinder is 3.23 ksi
Water from an upper tank is drained into a lower tank through a 5 cm diameter iron pipe with roughness 2 mm. The entrance to the pipe has minor loss coefficient 0.4 and the exit has minor loss coefficient of 1, both referenced to the velocity in the pipe. The water level of the upper tank is 4 m above the level of the lower tank, and the pipe is 5 m long. You will find the drainage volumetric flow rate. a) What is the relative roughness
Answer:
Relative roughness = 0.04
Explanation:
Given that:
Diameter = 5 cm
roughness = 2 mm
At inlet:
Minor coefficient loss [tex]k_{L1} = 0.4[/tex]
At exit:
Minor coefficient loss [tex]k_{L2} = 1[/tex]
Height h = 4m
Length = 5 m
To find the relative roughness:
Relative roughness is a term that is used to describe the set of irregularities that exist inside commercial pipes that transport fluids. The relative roughness can be evaluated by knowing the diameter of the pipe made with the absolute roughness in question. If we denote the absolute roughness as e and the diameter as D, the relative roughness is expressed as:
[tex]e_r = \dfrac{e}{D}[/tex]
[tex]e_r = \dfrac{0.2 }{5}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{e_r = 0.04}[/tex]

Answer:
a) the minimum sampling rate is 6 kHz
b) the minimum numbers of required samples are 120
c) the minimum length of the analog signal is 0.02 s
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
(a) the minimum sampling rate;
band width of analog signal xₐ(t) is;
bandwidth B = 3kHz
Now, according to sampling theorem, minimum sampling rate F[tex]_s[/tex] must be twice the bandwidth of the signal.
so
F[tex]_s[/tex] = 2B
F[tex]_s[/tex] = 2( 3 kHz )
F[tex]_s[/tex] = 6 kHz
Therefore, the minimum sampling rate is 6 kHz
(b) the minimum number of required samples;
Let L represent the minimum number of samples required,
given that; required resolution of the spectrum of the signal is less than or equal to 50 Hz
F[tex]_s[/tex]/L ≤ 50
L ≥ F[tex]_s[/tex]/50
L ≥ ( 6 × 1000 Hz ) / 50
L ≥ 6000 / 50
L ≥ 120
Therefore, the minimum numbers of required samples are 120
(c) the minimum length of the analog signal record(in seconds).
minimum number of samples required is 120
T = L / F[tex]_s[/tex]
T = 120 / ( 6 × 1000 Hz )
T = 120 / 6000
T = 0.02 s
Therefore, the minimum length of the analog signal is 0.02 s

For some metal alloy, a true stress of 345 MPa (50040 psi) produces a plastic true strain of 0.02. How much will a specimen of this material elongate when a true stress of 412 MPa (59760 psi) is applied if the original length is 480 mm (18.90 in.)? Assume a value of 0.22 for the strain-hardening exponent, n.
Answer:
the elongation of the metal alloy is 21.998 mm
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
K = σT/ (εT)ⁿ
given that metal alloy true stress σT = 345 Mpa, plastic true strain εT = 0.02,
strain-hardening exponent n = 0.22
we substitute
K = 345 / [tex]0.02^{0.22[/tex]
K = 815.8165 Mpa
next, we determine the true strain
(εT) = (σT/ K)^1/n
given that σT = 412 MPa
we substitute
(εT) = (412 / 815.8165 )^(1/0.22)
(εT) = 0.04481 mm
Now, we calculate the instantaneous length
[tex]l_i[/tex] = [tex]l_0e^{ET[/tex]
given that [tex]l_0[/tex] = 480 mm
we substitute
[tex]l_i[/tex] =[tex]480mm[/tex] × [tex]e^{0.04481[/tex]
[tex]l_i[/tex] = 501.998 mm
Now we find the elongation;
Elongation = [tex]l_i - l_0[/tex]
we substitute
Elongation = 501.998 mm - 480 mm
Elongation = 21.998 mm
Therefore, the elongation of the metal alloy is 21.998 mm

In 1951, a small approach embankment was constructed for a highway bridge over a river south of Los Angeles. The embankment was underlain by 5 ft of organic clay. Records of the settlement rate indicate that 90% of the consolidation settlements occurred in the first 4.5 years after construction. A new bridge over the river is now planned for a site a few hundred yards from the old bridge. The approach embankment to the new bridge will be underlain by 20 ft of the same organic clay found at the old bridge site. Estimate the time required to achieve an average degree of consolidation of 90% under the new embankment. Assume single drainage from the organic clay at both sites..
Answer:
72 years
Explanation:
The degree of consideration is the same for both bridges = 90%
Height of first highway bridge( d1 ) = 5 ft
Time to consolidation ( t1 )= 4.5 years
Height of second bridge ( d2 ) = 20 ft
Time to consolidation ( t2 ) = ?
we will apply this relation below
Tv = Cv * t / d^v
Tv = constant
for a single drainage condition : t ∝ d^v hence; d = H
∴ [tex]\frac{t_{2} }{t_{1} } = (\frac{d_{2} }{d_{1} })[/tex]^2
t2 = t1 ( d2/d1 )^2
= 4.5 ( 20 / 5 )^2
= 72 years
