What is a common tool used to gain mechanical advantage while hoisting.

Liquid water enters an adiabatic piping system at 15°C at a rate of 8kg/s. If the water temperature rises by 0.2°C during flow due to friction, the rate of entropy generation in the pipe is?

When a conductor is moved in a magnetic field, a voltage will be induced on the conductor. However, current won't flow through the conductor unless the conductor is

Hydraulic engineers often use, as a unit of volume of water, the "acre-foot", defined as the volume of water that will cover 1 acre of land to a depth of 1 ft. A severe thunderstorm dumps 2.6 in. of rain in 30 min on a town of area 28 km2.

Which of the following can minimize engine effort and save fuel? A. Using cruise control B. Driving only in low gear C. Driving only in increments of 5 mph D. Changing your oil once a week

What is the critical path and time duration? A simple CPM network has three activities, A, B, and C. A is an immediate predecessor of B and of C. B is an immediate predecessor of C. The activity durations are A=4, B=3, C=8.

Write the definition of a method named add that receives a reference to a Scanner object associated with a stream of input consisting of integers only. The method reads all the integers remaining to be read from the stream and returns their sum.

How are fluids distributed and transported in a fluid power system?

The sliders A and B are connected by a light rigid bar of length l = 20 in. and move with negligible friction in the slots, both of which lie in a horizontal plane. For the position where xA = 16 in., the velocity of A is vA = 3 ft/sec to the right.
