can you give me a paragraph on What is Electrical Engineering and why is it considered the largest branch of Engineering? I really need help.

Answers

Answer 1
This is long answer:

Electrical engineering is one of the newer branches of engineering, and dates back to the late 19th century. It is the branch of engineering that deals with the technology of electricity. Electrical engineers work on a wide range of components, devices and systems, from tiny microchips to huge power station generators.

Always in demand: the technology sector grew rapidly in the last decades and so did the demand for those who create, understand and develop electrical control systems, which means good job opportunities for you after graduation.
High salaries: as an electrical engineer, you will begin your career higher on the salary ladder than e.g. teachers or social science graduates.
Future technologies: electrical engineering is at the forefront of developing new technologies for a number of industries including those of transport, healthcare, construction and robotics.


TLDR: Electrical Engineering is about working with electronics and technology, it’s big due to the fact that it’s high paying and technology constantly evolves.

Compute the weight fraction of graphite, in a 3 wt% C Ferritic Gray cast iron, assuming that all the carbon exists as the graphite phase. Assume densities of 7.9 and 2.3 g/cm3 for ferrite and graphite, respectively.

Answers

Answer:

9.60%

Explanation:

Computation for the weight fraction of graphite

First step

Computation for the mass fraction for Wa using this formula

Wa=Cg-Co/Cg-Ca

Let plug

Wa=10-3/100-0

Wa=0.97

Computation for the mass fraction for Wg using this formula

Wg=Co-Ca/Cg-Ca

Let plug in the formula

Wg=3-0/100-0

Wg=0.03

Second step is to convert the mass fraction to Volume Fraction using this formula

Volume Fraction =[Wg/Pg÷(Wa/Pa)+(Wg/Pg)]*100

Let plug in the formula

Volume =[0.03/2.3 ÷(0.97/7.9)+(0.03/2.3)]*100

Volume=[0.0130435÷0.1227848+0.0130435]*100

Volume=[0.0130435÷0.135828]*100

Volume=0.096*100

Volume=9.60%

Therefore the weight fraction of graphite will be 9.60%

In a compression test, a steel test specimen (modulus of elasticity 30 106 lb/in2 ) has a starting height 2.0 in and diameter 1.5 in. The metal yields (0.2% offset) at a load 140,000 lb. At a load of 260,000 lb, the height has been reduced to 1.6 in. Determine (a) yield strength and (b) fl ow curve parameters (strength coeffi cient and strain-hardening exponent). Assume that the cross-sectional area increases uniformly during the test.

Answers

Answer:

A) σ_y = 79096 lb/in² = 79.1 ksi

B) strain-hardening exponent = 0.102

(strength coefficient = 137838.78 lb/in²

Explanation:

A) Formula for volume is;

V = πd²h/4

We are given;

height 2.0 in and diameter 1.5 in

Thus;

V = (π × 1.5² × 2)/4

V = 3.53 in³

Area is;

A = πd²/4

A = (π × 1.5²)/4

A = 1.77 in²

Yield strength is gotten from the formula;

σ_y = Force/Area

We are given load = 140,000 lb

Thus;

σ_y = 140000/1.77

σ_y = 79096 lb/in²

B) We are given

modulus of elasticity: E = 30 × 10^(6) lb/in²

Formula for strain is;

ε = σ_y/E

ε = 79096/(30 × 10^(6))

ε = 0.00264

The metal yields (0.2% offset), thus;

strain offsets = 0.00264 + 0.002

strain offsets: ε1 = 0.00464

Thus;

(h_i - h_o)/h_o = 0.00464

(h_i/h_o) - 1 = 0.00464

(h_i/h_o) = 1.00464

h_i = h_o(1.00464)

h_o = 2 in

Thus; h_i = 2(1.00464) = 2.00928 in

Area = Volume/height = 3.53/2.00928 = 1.757 in²

True stress is;

σ = force/area = 140000/1.757

σ1 = 79681.27 lb/in²

At a load of 260,000 lb, the height has been reduced to 1.6 in. Thus;

Area = 3.53/1.6 = 2.206 in²

True stress is;

σ2 = 260000/2.206

σ2 = 117860.38 lb/in²

True strain;

ε2 = In(2/1.6)

ε2 = 0.223

From flow curve;

σ = kεⁿ

Thus;

σ1 = k(ε1)ⁿ

79681.27 = k(0.00464ⁿ) - - - (eq 1)

Also for σ2 = k(ε2)ⁿ;

117860.38 = k(0.223ⁿ) - - - - - (eq 2)

From eq 1,

k = 79681.27/0.00464ⁿ

Putting this for k in eq2 to get;

117860.38 = (0.223ⁿ) × 79681.27/0.00464ⁿ

117860.38/79681.27 = 0.223ⁿ/0.00464ⁿ

Solving for n, we have ≈ 0.102

Thus,K is;

k = 79681.27/0.00464^(0.102)

k = 137838.78 lb/in²

An astronomer of 65 kg of mass hikes from the beach to the observatory atop the mountain in Mauna Kea, Hawaii (altitude of 4205 m). By how much (in newtons) does her weight change when she goes from sea level to the observatory?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.845\ \text{N}[/tex]

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity at sea level = [tex]9.81\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

R = Radius of Earth = 6371000 m

h = Altitude of observatory = 4205 m

Change in acceleration due to gravity due to change in altitude is given by

[tex]g_h=g(1+\dfrac{h}{R})^{-2}\\\Rightarrow g_h=9.81\times(1+\dfrac{4205}{6371000})^{-2}\\\Rightarrow g_h=9.797\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

Weight at sea level

[tex]W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=65\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow W=637.65\ \text{N}[/tex]

Weight at the given height

[tex]W_h=mg_h\\\Rightarrow W_h=65\times 9.797\\\Rightarrow W_h=636.805\ \text{N}[/tex]

Change in weight [tex]W_h-W=636.805-637.65=-0.845\ \text{N}[/tex]

Her weight reduces by [tex]0.845\ \text{N}[/tex].

Five identical keys are suspended from a balance, which is held horizontally as shown. The two keys on the left are attached to the balance 6 cm from the pivot and the three keys on the right are attached 5 cm from the pivot. What will happen when the person lets go of the balance beam?

Answers

Answer:

movement in clockwise direction.

Explanation:

The following parameters or information are given from the question above, they are:

[1]. There are two identical keys, [2]. two out of the five keys are attached to 6cm from the pivot, [3]. three keys out of the five keys on the right are attached 5 cm.

Therefore, considering the moment of force, the two keys on the left = 2 × 6 = 12.

Also, considering the moment of force, the 3 keys on the right = 3 × 5 = 15.

Therefore, we have more weight on the right keys. So, in order to balance the force there must be movement in clockwise direction.

700.0 liters of a gas are prepared at 760.0 mmHg and 100.0 °C. The gas is placed into a tank under high pressure. When the tank cools to 32.0 °C, the pressure of the gas is 20.0 atm. What is the volume of the gas?

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the gas is 11.2 L.

Explanation:

Initially, we have:

V₁ = 700.0 L

P₁ = 760.0 mmHg = 1 atm

T₁ = 100.0 °C

When the gas is in the thank we have:

V₂ =?

P₂ = 20.0 atm

T₂ = 32.0 °C      

Now, we can find the volume of the gas in the thank by using the Ideal Gas Law:

[tex] PV = nRT [/tex]

[tex]V_{2} = \frac{nRT_{2}}{P_{2}}[/tex]    (1)

Where R is the gas constant

With the initials conditions we can find the number of moles:

[tex] n = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{RT_{1}} [/tex]    (2)

By entering equation (2) into (1) we have:

[tex] V_{2} = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{RT_{1}}*\frac{RT_{2}}{P_{2}} = \frac{1 atm*700.0 L*32.0 ^{\circ}}{100.0 ^{\circ}*20.0 atm} = 11.2 L [/tex]

Therefore, When the gas is placed into a tank the volume of the gas is 11.2 L.

Determine the size of memory needed for CD recording of a piece of music, which lasts for 26 minutes, is done with a 20-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) in stereo (2 channels), at the rate of 44.1 kSa/s, with the compression factor 6 (allow 10% error margin).

Answers

Answer: the size of memory needed for the CD recording is 28.7 MB

Explanation:

so in the case of stereo, the bitrate is;

⇒ 26 × 60 × 44.1 × 10³ × 2

=   137592 × 10³  

for 10 bit

⇒ 137592 × 10³ × 10

= 1375920 × 10³ bits

now divide by 8 (convert to bytes)

⇒ (1375920 × 10³) / 8

= 171,990,000 BYTE

divide by 1000 (convert to kilobytes)

= 171,990,000 / 1000

= 171,990 KILOBYTES

now Given that, the compression ratio is 6      

so  

171,990 / 6

= 28665 KB

we know that. 1 MB = 1000 KB

x MB = 28665 KB

x MB = 28665 / 1000

⇒ 28.665 MB ≈ 28.7 MB

Therefore the size of memory needed for the CD recording is 28.7 MB

Answers

Explanation:

Remember, to say a product is incorporated with aesthetic design implies that its overall appearance is designed to look beautiful to the eyes of the user/buyer. For example, a clothing company whose target market is mainly focused on women's clothing would need to take into consideration that certain colors like pink, blue, etc are attractive to women more than men. So they'll have to ensure the colors of their clothing are suitable to the needs of their target market.

The Universal Design process involves building products that can be used by a wide range of users at ease. For example, you may ask yourself: Is my product/service easily accesible to those with disabilities?

Other processes include;

It is desired to produce and aligned carbon fiber-epoxy matrix composite having a longitudinal tensile strength of 630 MPa. Calculate (a) the critical fiber length, and (b) the volume fraction of fibers necessary if (1) the average fiber diameter is 0.030 mm, (2) the average fiber length is 2.4 mm, (3) the fiber fracture strength is 5100 MPa, (4) the fiber-matrix bond strength is 17 MPa, (5) the matrix stress at fiber failure is 17.5 MPa.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

Diameter (D) = 0.03 mm = 0.00003 m, length (L) = 2.4 mm = 0.0024 m, longitudinal tensile strength [tex](\sigma_{cd})=630\ MPa = 630*10^6\ Pa[/tex], Fracture strength

[tex](\sigma_f)=5100\ MPa=5100*10^6\ Pa,fiber-matrix\ stres(\sigma_m)=17.5\ MPa=17.5*10^6\ Pa,matrix\ strength=\tau_c=17\ MPa=17 *10^6\ Pa[/tex]

a) The critical length ([tex]L_c[/tex]) is given by:

[tex]L_c=\sigma_f*(\frac{D}{2*\tau_c} )=5100*10^6*\frac{0.00003}{2*17*10^6}=0.0045\ m=4.5\ mm[/tex]

The critical length (4.5 mm) is greater than the given length, hence th composite can be produced.

b) The volume fraction (Vf) is gotten from the formula:

[tex]\sigma_{cd}=\frac{L*\tau_c}{D}*V_f+\sigma_m(1-V_f)\\\\V_f=\frac{\sigma_{cd}-\sigma_{m}}{\frac{L*\tau_c}{D}-\sigma_{m}} \\\\Substituting:\\\\V_f=\frac{630*10^6-17.5*10^6}{\frac{0.0024*17*10^6}{0.00003} -17.5*10^6} \\\\V_f=0.456[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Hello some parts of your question is missing below is the missing part

Convection coefficient = 11 w/m^2. °c

answer : 44.83 watts

Explanation:

Given data :

surface emissivity ( ε )= 0.95

head ( sphere) diameter( D )  = 0.25 m

Temperature of sphere( T )  = 35° C

Temperature of surrounding ( T∞ )  = 25°C

Temperature of surrounding surface ( Ts ) = 15°C

б  = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

Determine the total rate of heat loss

First we calculate the surface area of the sphere

As = [tex]\pi D^{2}[/tex]  

= [tex]\pi * 0.25^2[/tex] =  0.2 m^2

next we calculate heat loss due to radiation

Qrad = ε * б * As( [tex]T^{4} - T^{4} _{s}[/tex] )  ---- ( 1 )

where ;

ε = 0.95

б = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

As = 0.2 m^2

T = 35 + 273 = 308 k

Ts = 15 + 273 = 288 k

input values into equation 1

Qrad = 0.95 * ( 5.67 * 10^-8 ) * 0.2 ( (308)^4 - ( 288)^4 )

         = 22.83  watts

Qrad ( heat loss due to radiation ) = 22.83 watts

calculate the heat loss due to convection

Qconv = h* As ( ΔT )

           = 11*0.2 ( 35 -25 )  = 22 watts

Hence total rate of heat loss

=  22 + 22.83

= 44.83 watts

An engineer must design a rectangular box that has a volume of 9 m3 and that has a bottom whose length is twice its width. What are the dimensions of the box so that the total surface area (of all six sides) of the box is minimized

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Length =3[/tex]   [tex]Height = 2[/tex]   and  [tex]Width = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]Volume = 9m^3[/tex]

Represent the height as h, the length as l and the width as w.

From the question:

[tex]Length = 2 * Width[/tex]

[tex]l = 2w[/tex]

Volume of a box is calculated as:

[tex]V = l*w*h[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]V = 2w *w*h[/tex]

[tex]V = 2w^2h[/tex]

Substitute 9 for V

[tex]9 = 2w^2h[/tex]

Make h the subject:

[tex]h = \frac{9}{2w^2}[/tex]

The surface area is calculated as:

[tex]A = 2(lw + lh + hw)[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]l = 2w[/tex]

[tex]A = 2(2w*w + 2w*h + hw)[/tex]

[tex]A = 2(2w^2 + 2wh + hw)[/tex]

[tex]A = 2(2w^2 + 3wh)[/tex]

[tex]A = 4w^2 + 6wh[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]h = \frac{9}{2w^2}[/tex]

So:

[tex]A = 4w^2 + 6w * \frac{9}{2w^2}[/tex]

[tex]A = 4w^2 + 6* \frac{9}{2w}[/tex]

[tex]A = 4w^2 + \frac{6* 9}{2w}[/tex]

[tex]A = 4w^2 + \frac{3* 9}{w}[/tex]

[tex]A = 4w^2 + \frac{27}{w}[/tex]

To minimize the surface area, we have to differentiate with respect to w

[tex]A' = 8w - 27w^{-2}[/tex]

Set A' to 0

[tex]0 = 8w - 27w^{-2}[/tex]

Add [tex]27w^{-2}[/tex] to both sides

[tex]27w^{-2} = 8w[/tex]

Multiply both sides by [tex]w^2[/tex]

[tex]27w^{-2}*w^2 = 8w*w^2[/tex]

[tex]27 = 8w^3[/tex]

Make [tex]w^3[/tex] the subject

[tex]w^3 = \frac{27}{8}[/tex]

Solve for w

[tex]w = \sqrt[3]{\frac{27}{8}}[/tex]

[tex]w = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Recall that : [tex]h = \frac{9}{2w^2}[/tex]   and [tex]l = 2w[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{9}{2 * \frac{3}{2}^2}[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{9}{2 * \frac{9}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]h = \frac{9}{\frac{9}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]h = 9/\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

[tex]h = 9*\frac{2}{9}[/tex]

[tex]h= 2[/tex]

[tex]l = 2w[/tex]

[tex]l = 2 * \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]l = 3[/tex]

Hence, the dimension that minimizes the surface area is:

[tex]Length =3[/tex]   [tex]Height = 2[/tex]   and  [tex]Width = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

a cantilever beam 1.5m long has a square box cross section with the outer width and height being 100mm and a wall thickness of 8mm. the beam carries a uniform load of 6.5kN/m along the entire length and, in the same direction, a concentrated force of 4kN at the free end. (a) determine the max bending stress (b) determine the max transervse shear stress (c) determine the max shear stress in the beam

Answers

Answer:

a) 159.07 MPa

b) 10.45 MPa

c) 79.535 MPa

Explanation:

Given data :

length of cantilever beam = 1.5m

outer width and height = 100 mm

wall thickness = 8mm

uniform load carried by beam  along entire length= 6.5 kN/m

concentrated force at free end = 4kN

first we  determine these values :

Mmax = ( 6.5 *(1.5) * (1.5/2) + 4 * 1.5 ) = 13312.5 N.m

Vmax = ( 6.5 * (1.5) + 4 ) = 13750 N

A) determine max bending stress

б = [tex]\frac{MC}{I}[/tex]  =  [tex]\frac{13312.5 ( 0.112)}{1/12(0.1^4-0.084^4)}[/tex]  =  159.07 MPa

B) Determine max transverse shear stress

attached below

   ζ = 10.45 MPa

C) Determine max shear stress in the beam

This occurs at the top of the beam or at the centroidal axis

hence max stress in the beam =  159.07 / 2 = 79.535 MPa  

attached below is the remaining solution

How many flip-flop values are complemented in an 8-bit binary ripple counter to reach the next count value after: 0110111 and 01010110?

Answers

Answer:

- Four (4) flip-flop values will complemented

- one (1) flip-flop value will complemented

Explanation:

To find how many flip flop number of bits complemented, we just need to figure out what the next count in the sequence is and find how many bits have changed.

taking a look at the a) 00110111

we need to just 1 to the value,

so

00110111 +  0000001  = 00111000        

So here, only the first four bits are complemented.

Therefore Four (4) flip-flop values will complemented

Next

b) 01010110

we also add 1 to the value

01010110  + 00000001  = 01010111

only the first bit is complemented.

Therefore one (1) flip-flop value will complemented
