A unidirectional E-Glass fiber-epoxy composite material contains 61% by volume E-Glass fibers stressed under isostrain conditions. The E-Glass fibers have a tensile modulus of 10x106 psi, and a tensile strength of 0.35x106 psi. The epoxy matrix has a tensile modulus of 0.45x106 psi, and a tensile strength of 9.0x103 psi. What is the strength of the composite material and what fraction of the load is carried by the E-Glass fibers?

Atmospheric air has a temperature (dry bulb) of 80° f and a wet bulb temperature of 60° f when the barometric pressure is 14.696 psia. determine the specific humidity, grains/lb dry air. a. 11.4 c. 55.8 d. 22.5 b. 44.1

Abrayton cycle operates with a regenerator on the air-standard with properties evaluated at 400 k. the tem- perature of the air entering the compressor is 350k while the temperature of the air exiting the compressor is 600 k. the temperature of the air entering the turbine is 1600 k. the overall cycle produced 600 kj/kg of net work out. assuming a regenerator effectiveness of 0.8, what is the temperature of the air before heat addition (combustion)? draw this process on a t - s diagram

Aheat pump with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep a space at 25°c by absorbing heat from geothermal water that enters the evaporator at 500c at a rate of 0.065 kg/s and leaves at 40°c. the refrigerant enters the evaporator at 20°c with a quality of 23 percent and leaves at the inlet pressure as saturated vapor. the refrigerant loses 300 w of heat to the surroundings as it flows through the compressor and the refrigerant leaves the compressor at 1.4 mpa at the same entropy as the inlet. determine: (a) the degrees of subcooling of the refrigerant in the condenser, b)-the mass flow rate of the refrigerant . (c) the heating load and the cop of the pump, and d)-the theoretical minimum power input to the compressor for the same heating load.
