In a production woodworking shop, 50 µm spherical dust particles were blown into the air while a piece of oak furniture was being sanded.

a. find the terminal velocity of the particles as they fall through the air. b. neglecting air currents, how long would it take the cloud of sawdust to settle out of the air and fall 2 m to the ground? the density of dry oak is approximately 750 kg/m3

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.

When subject to a steady load (within elastic range) over a long period of time, what is the major difference in material behavoir between steel and plastic?

What is the chief metrological difference between measuring with a microscope and with an electronic comparator? a. the microscope is limited to small workpieces.a. the microscope is limited to small workpieces. c. the comparator can only examine one point on the workpiece. d. the microscope carries its own standard.
