Cevap

The correct matches are: the 20-to-60 tooth train outputs 40 rpm40\text{ rpm} counter-clockwise; the train with one idler outputs 240 rpm240\text{ rpm} clockwise; the 60-to-20 tooth train outputs 360 rpm360\text{ rpm} counter-clockwise; and the train with two idlers outputs 120 rpm120\text{ rpm} counter-clockwise.
The output speed of a simple gear train is calculated by dividing the number of teeth on the driving gear by the number of teeth on the driven gear, and multiplying that ratio by the input speed. Any intermediate gears, known as idlers, exist solely to bridge gaps or change the rotational direction of the driven gear; their tooth counts do not influence the final output speed. Additionally, each physical mesh between gears reverses the direction of rotation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the 20-tooth to 60-tooth gear train.
Matches with '40 rpm40\text{ rpm}, counter-clockwise'.
The output ratio is determined by driver/driven: 20/60 = 1/3. Output speed is 120×1/3=40 rpm120 \times 1/3 = 40\text{ rpm}. A single mesh reverses the initial clockwise direction to counter-clockwise.
2
Evaluate the 40-tooth to 20-tooth train with one idler.
Matches with '240 rpm240\text{ rpm}, clockwise'.
The idler's tooth count does not affect the ratio. Ratio is 40/20 = 2. Output speed is 120×2=240 rpm120 \times 2 = 240\text{ rpm}. Two meshes mean the direction is reversed twice, resulting in clockwise rotation.
3
Evaluate the 60-tooth to 20-tooth gear train.
Matches with '360 rpm360\text{ rpm}, counter-clockwise'.
The output ratio is 60/20 = 3. Output speed is 120×3=360 rpm120 \times 3 = 360\text{ rpm}. A single mesh reverses the direction to counter-clockwise.
4
Evaluate the 10-tooth to 10-tooth train with two idlers.
Matches with '120 rpm120\text{ rpm}, counter-clockwise'.
The idlers are ignored for speed. Ratio is 10/10 = 1. Output speed is 120×1=120 rpm120 \times 1 = 120\text{ rpm}. Three meshes alternate the direction (CW to CCW to CW to CCW).

A motorized winch is pulling a supply pallet across a rough concrete loading dock. The winch applies a constant horizontal pulling force of 1,500 N1,500 \text{ N}. The kinetic friction between the pallet and the dock is 300 N300 \text{ N}. If the pallet accelerates at 1.5 m/s21.5 \text{ m/s}^2, what is the mass of the pallet?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 800 kg800 \text{ kg}

Cevap

The correct mass of the pallet is 800 kg800 \text{ kg}.
The correct answer is found by first determining the net force acting on the pallet. Subtracting the 300 N300 \text{ N} friction from the 1,500 N1,500 \text{ N} applied pulling force yields a net force of 1,200 N1,200 \text{ N}. Using Newton's Second Law (F=maF = ma), dividing the net force by the acceleration (1.5 m/s21.5 \text{ m/s}^2) gives a mass of 800 kg800 \text{ kg}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the net force acting on the pallet by subtracting the friction force from the applied pulling force.
Fnet=1,500 N−300 N=1,200 NF_{net} = 1,500 \text{ N} - 300 \text{ N} = 1,200 \text{ N}
Newton's Second Law requires the total net force acting on the object, so all opposing forces must be accounted for.
2
Use Newton's Second Law (F=maF = ma) to solve for the mass.
m=Fneta=1,200 N1.5 m/s2=800 kgm = \frac{F_{net}}{a} = \frac{1,200 \text{ N}}{1.5 \text{ m/s}^2} = 800 \text{ kg}
Mass is equal to the net force divided by the resulting acceleration.

An irregularly shaped 300300-pound machine casing is 1010 feet long. For maintenance, it is suspended horizontally by two vertical chains, one attached at the extreme left end and one at the extreme right end. The casing's center of gravity is located 22 feet from the left end.

How much weight is supported by the right chain?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6060 pounds

Cevap

6060 pounds
Because the center of gravity is offset, the weight is not distributed equally. By using the left end as a pivot point, we can balance the torques. The weight of the casing creates a downward torque of 300 lbs×2 ft=600 ft-lbs300 \text{ lbs} \times 2 \text{ ft} = 600 \text{ ft-lbs}. The right chain, pulling upward at a distance of 1010 feet, must create an equal opposite torque. Therefore, Fright×10 ft=600 ft-lbsF_{right} \times 10 \text{ ft} = 600 \text{ ft-lbs}, which means the right chain supports 6060 pounds.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Choose a pivot point to set up a torque equation.
Using the left end (where the left chain is attached) as the pivot eliminates the left chain's unknown force from the calculation.
In static equilibrium, the sum of torques around any point must be zero. Choosing one support as the pivot makes it easier to solve for the other support.
2
Calculate the downward torque generated by the casing's weight.
The downward torque is the weight (300300 pounds) multiplied by its distance from the left pivot (22 feet): 300×2=600300 \times 2 = 600 foot-pounds.
Torque is Force multiplied by Distance from the fulcrum.
3
Set the downward torque equal to the upward torque generated by the right chain and solve.
The upward torque is the unknown force of the right chain (FrightF_{right}) multiplied by its distance from the pivot (1010 feet). So, Fright×10=600F_{right} \times 10 = 600. Dividing both sides by 1010 gives Fright=60F_{right} = 60 pounds.
Upward torque must equal downward torque for the casing to remain balanced horizontally.

In an automotive air conditioning system, high-pressure liquid refrigerant passes through an expansion valve just before entering the evaporator coils. This component causes a sudden, significant drop in the fluid's pressure. What is the primary thermodynamic purpose of this pressure drop?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: To lower the boiling point of the refrigerant, allowing it to vaporize and absorb heat from the passenger cabin.

Cevap

To lower the boiling point of the refrigerant, allowing it to vaporize and absorb heat from the passenger cabin.
The core principle of a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is using a phase change to move heat. By dropping the pressure at the expansion valve, the boiling point of the refrigerant is drastically lowered. This allows it to easily boil into a gas when exposed to the relatively warm air of the passenger cabin in the evaporator. Boiling is an endothermic process that absorbs massive amounts of latent heat, thereby effectively cooling the cabin air.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the state of the refrigerant at the expansion valve.
The refrigerant enters the valve as a high-pressure liquid.
Understanding the starting state is necessary to determine what physical changes will occur.
2
Determine the physical effect of a sudden pressure drop on a fluid.
A drop in pressure significantly lowers the boiling point of a fluid.
This is a fundamental thermodynamic principle governing phase changes.
3
Evaluate the result in the context of the next component (the evaporator).
Because the boiling point is now lower than the cabin temperature, the liquid boils (vaporizes) in the evaporator, absorbing massive amounts of latent heat.
This phase change is the primary mechanism by which the air conditioning system removes heat from the air.

Eşleşmeler

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The turning force is an inward centripetal force provided by friction. The outward sensation is caused by inertia. Losing friction results in a tangential straight-line path, and doubling the speed quadruples the required centripetal force.
Each matching pair accurately connects real-world driving observations with Newton's laws of motion. Circular paths require inward centripetal forces. Physical sensations of being pushed outward are simply inertia. Loss of that inward force results in a straight, tangential trajectory, and the mathematical relationship of F=mv2rF = \frac{mv^2}{r} dictates that doubling speed requires four times the inward force.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the primary force enabling circular motion.
The car requires a net inward force, known as centripetal force, which is supplied by road friction.
Without a force pulling the object toward the center of the curve, circular motion is impossible.
2
Analyze the physical cause of the driver's outward sensation.
The sensation is determined to be the result of inertia, not a real physical outward force.
Newton's First Law states objects resist changes in direction. The body tries to go straight while the car door pushes inward.
3
Determine the path of the vehicle if the centripetal force drops to zero (hitting ice).
The path becomes a straight line tangent to the exact point on the curve where friction was lost.
When the inward force ceases, the vehicle instantly resumes straight-line motion.
4
Calculate the proportional change in force if velocity is doubled.
Using F=mv2rF = \frac{mv^2}{r}, inserting 2v2v yields (2v)2=4v2(2v)^2 = 4v^2, meaning the required force is 4 times greater.
Centripetal force scales with the square of the velocity.

A steady stream of water flows through a horizontal pipeline of varying diameter. Four vertical piezometer tubes (standpipes open to the atmosphere) are installed along the pipe to measure the local static pressure. The height of the water column in each tube is observed as follows:

- Station 1: 1.21.2 meters
- Station 2: 2.52.5 meters
- Station 3: 0.80.8 meters
- Station 4: 1.81.8 meters

Based on Bernoulli's principle, arrange the stations in order from the fastest fluid velocity to the slowest fluid velocity.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct order from fastest to slowest velocity is: Station 3, Station 1, Station 4, Station 2.
According to Bernoulli's principle, for an incompressible fluid flowing through a horizontal pipe, an increase in fluid velocity occurs simultaneously with a decrease in static pressure. The height of the water in a vertical piezometer tube is a direct measure of the static pressure at that location. Therefore, the station with the lowest water column (Station 3, 0.80.8 m) has the lowest static pressure and the fastest velocity. The station with the highest water column (Station 2, 2.52.5 m) has the highest static pressure and the slowest velocity. Sorting from lowest to highest water column gives the correct sequence from fastest to slowest velocity.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Understand the relationship between water column height and static pressure.
The height of a fluid column in a piezometer tube directly indicates the static pressure at that point (P=ρghP = \rho g h).
Establishing what the given measurements represent.
2
Apply Bernoulli's principle to relate static pressure and fluid velocity.
In a horizontal pipe, regions with higher static pressure correspond to slower fluid velocities, and regions with lower static pressure correspond to faster fluid velocities.
This inverse relationship is the core concept of Bernoulli's principle for steady, horizontal flow.
3
Rank the static pressures based on the water column heights.
Lowest pressure to highest pressure: Station 3 (0.80.8 m), Station 1 (1.21.2 m), Station 4 (1.81.8 m), Station 2 (2.52.5 m).
To find the order of fluid velocities, we first need to order the static pressures.
4
Determine the final order of fluid velocities.
Since the fastest velocity occurs at the lowest pressure, the order from fastest to slowest is: Station 3, Station 1, Station 4, Station 2.

15
The correct acceleration is found by first determining the net force acting on the projectile. Subtracting the 100 N100 \text{ N} of friction from the 700 N700 \text{ N} applied force yields a net force of 600 N600 \text{ N}. According to Newton's Second Law (F=maF = ma), dividing this net force by the 40 kg40 \text{ kg} mass results in an acceleration of 15 m/s215 \text{ m/s}^2.

1
Calculate the net horizontal force acting on the projectile.
700 N−100 N=600 N700 \text{ N} - 100 \text{ N} = 600 \text{ N}
The net force is the vector sum of all forces; friction directly opposes the forward applied force.
2
Use Newton's Second Law to set up the equation for acceleration.
a=Fnetma = \frac{F_{\text{net}}}{m}
Acceleration equals the net force divided by the mass of the object.
3
Substitute the known values into the equation.

Cevap: 300 lbs300\text{ lbs}; Second-class lever

Cevap

The assembly represents a second-class lever, and the resulting force is 300 lbs300\text{ lbs}.
The brake pedal assembly features a fulcrum at the top pin, the load connection in the middle, and the effort application at the bottom. The Fulcrum-Load-Effort (F-L-E) arrangement defines a second-class lever. To find the output force, we use the law of levers (Torque = Force × Distance from fulcrum). The input torque is 60 lbs×15 inches=900 in-lbs60\text{ lbs} \times 15\text{ inches} = 900\text{ in-lbs}. To maintain equilibrium, the output torque must also be 900 in-lbs900\text{ in-lbs}. Dividing this by the load distance of 3 inches3\text{ inches} yields an output force of 300 lbs300\text{ lbs}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the arrangement of the fulcrum, load, and effort to determine the lever class.
The pivot (fulcrum) is at one end, the pushrod (load) is in the middle, and the foot pad (effort) is at the other end. This F-L-E configuration is a second-class lever.
Correctly classifying the lever establishes the proper distances for the torque equation.
2
Set up the torque balance equation for the lever: Feffort×deffort=Fload×dloadF_{effort} \times d_{effort} = F_{load} \times d_{load}.
60 lbs×15 inches=Fload×3 inches60\text{ lbs} \times 15\text{ inches} = F_{load} \times 3\text{ inches}.
In equilibrium, the torque input from the effort must equal the torque output against the load.
3
Solve the algebraic equation for the unknown load force (FloadF_{load}).
900=3×Fload900 = 3 \times F_{load}, which simplifies to Fload=300 lbsF_{load} = 300\text{ lbs}.
Isolating the variable gives the exact force applied to the master cylinder pushrod.

Cevap: 32 rpm32\text{ rpm}, counter-clockwise

Cevap

The final output Gear Z rotates at 32 rpm32\text{ rpm} in a counter-clockwise direction.
The system features a two-stage reduction. In the first stage, Gear W drives Gear X, yielding a 4:1 reduction (640 rpm640\text{ rpm} divided by 4 equals 160 rpm160\text{ rpm}) and a direction change to clockwise. Gear Y shares the axle with Gear X, so it also rotates at 160 rpm160\text{ rpm} clockwise. In the second stage, Gear Y drives Gear Z, creating a 5:1 reduction (160 rpm160\text{ rpm} divided by 5 equals 32 rpm32\text{ rpm}) and reversing the direction back to counter-clockwise.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the speed and direction of Gear X.
Gear X rotates at 160 rpm160\text{ rpm}, clockwise.
Gear W (14 teeth) drives Gear X (56 teeth). The gear ratio is 56/14 = 4. Since the driven gear is larger, the speed is reduced: 640/4=160 rpm640 / 4 = 160\text{ rpm}. Meshing gears rotate in opposite directions, so Gear X turns clockwise.
2
Determine the speed and direction of Gear Y.
Gear Y rotates at 160 rpm160\text{ rpm}, clockwise.
Gear X and Gear Y share the same solid axle. Compound gears on the same axle always rotate at the exact same speed and in the same direction.
3
Calculate the speed and direction of Gear Z.
Gear Z rotates at 32 rpm32\text{ rpm}, counter-clockwise.
Gear Y (18 teeth) drives Gear Z (90 teeth). The gear ratio is 90/18 = 5. The speed is reduced again: 160/5=32 rpm160 / 5 = 32\text{ rpm}. Meshing gears reverse direction, so Gear Z turns counter-clockwise.

When assembling rigid thermoplastic pipe and fittings, a tradesperson must follow a precise chemical fusion procedure to guarantee a leak-proof joint. What is the correct chronological sequence of steps for creating a standard solvent-welded pipe connection?

Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct sequence begins with cutting and chamfering the pipe end, followed by applying primer to soften the plastic, applying solvent cement, inserting the pipe with a quarter-turn twist while holding it firmly, and finally allowing the joint to fully cure before pressure testing.
Proper solvent welding requires thorough mechanical preparation (cutting and chamfering), chemical preparation (priming to soften the resin), chemical application (solvent cement), mechanical assembly with twist and retention (to prevent push-out), and finally chemical curing to establish permanent joint integrity.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Cut and deburr/chamfer the pipe end.
A square, smooth pipe end with a slight bevel.
Removes interior obstructions that cause flow turbulence and external burrs that could scrape cement out of the fitting socket.
2
Apply purple primer to the pipe end and fitting hub.
Cleaned, chemically softened contact surfaces.
Primer dissolves the glossy outer layer of the plastic and prepares polymer chains for solvent welding.
3
Apply solvent cement to both primed surfaces.
A wet, active chemical layer on the mating surfaces.
Solvent cement actively dissolves the thermoplastic polymers to create a true interlocked fusion weld.
4
Insert the pipe into the fitting with a quarter-turn and hold firmly for approximately 30 seconds.
Full bottoming of the pipe inside the socket with even cement distribution.
The quarter-turn eliminates voids, and holding prevents the tapered hub from expelling the pipe due to internal pressure buildup before the initial set.
5
Wipe off excess exterior cement and let the joint cure undisturbed.
A fully hardened, permanent, pressure-rated joint.
Solvents must fully evaporate to allow the fused polymers to harden to full operating strength before introduction of fluid pressure.

An automotive technician is preparing to operate a high-speed stationary drill press to bore holes into a steel mounting bracket. Which of the following items of personal protective equipment poses a critical entanglement hazard and must NOT be worn during this machining operation?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Heavy-duty leather work gloves

Cevap

Heavy-duty leather work gloves must be avoided when operating a drill press because they create a dangerous entanglement risk around rotating components.
Wearing leather work gloves around rotating machinery like a drill press is a dangerous safety violation. The rotating flutes of the drill bit can easily snag the glove material and forcefully pull the operator's fingers and hand into the spindle, leading to severe crushing, fractures, or amputation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the mechanical motion and hazard profile of the machine being operated.
A stationary drill press features an exposed high-speed rotating spindle and cutting flutes that create aggressive pinch and wrap points.
Machining hazards differ substantially between impact/chemical tasks and rotating machinery operations.
2
Evaluate the interaction between loose items or hand coverings and rotating spindles.
Fabric or leather gloves can snag on the spiraled flutes of the rotating drill bit, eliminating the hand's natural slip away from moving parts and pulling the entire hand into the bit.
Safety standards strictly prohibit gloves, long loose hair, ties, and jewelry when using rotating power equipment.
3
Verify the safety and necessity of the remaining protective gear.
Eye protection, hearing protection, and safety footwear remain mandatory because they protect against chips, noise, and falling items without presenting entanglement points.
Proper PPE selection requires eliminating gear that introduces secondary hazards while maintaining necessary primary protection.

During a routine weight and balance check, a small aircraft is parked horizontally on weighing scales. The scale under the nose wheel reads 500500 pounds, and the combined reading from the scales under the two main wheels is 1,5001,500 pounds. The nose wheel is located exactly 100100 inches forward of the main landing gear axis. How many inches forward of the main landing gear axis is the aircraft's center of gravity?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 25

Cevap

25
In static equilibrium, the sum of the moments around any point must be zero. By using the main landing gear axis as the reference point, the moment created by the total weight of the aircraft (2,0002,000 pounds) acting at the center of gravity must equal the moment created by the nose wheel's load. The nose wheel is 100100 inches away and supports 500500 pounds, creating a moment of 50,00050,000 pound-inches. Dividing this total moment by the total weight (50,000÷2,00050,000 \div 2,000) gives a center of gravity located 2525 inches forward of the main gear.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the total weight of the aircraft.
500+1,500=2,000500 + 1,500 = 2,000 pounds
The total weight is needed to find the proportion of the load carried by each support.
2
Set up the balance equation (sum of moments) around the main landing gear axis.
(Total Weight)×(CG Distance)=(Nose Wheel Weight)×(Distance to Nose Wheel)(Total\ Weight) \times (CG\ Distance) = (Nose\ Wheel\ Weight) \times (Distance\ to\ Nose\ Wheel)
In static equilibrium, the moment generated by the total weight at the CG equals the sum of the moments of individual components.
3
Substitute the known values into the equation and solve for the CG distance.
2,000×d=500×100⇒2,000d=50,000⇒d=252,000 \times d = 500 \times 100 \Rightarrow 2,000d = 50,000 \Rightarrow d = 25 inches
Solving the algebraic equation isolates the distance from the main gear to the center of gravity.

Alternatif Yöntem

Instead of using the main gear as the pivot, you can use the nose wheel as the pivot. The moment of the main gear is 1,500×100=150,0001,500 \times 100 = 150,000. Dividing by the total weight (2,0002,000) gives 7575 inches from the nose wheel. Subtracting this from the total wheelbase (100−75100 - 75) gives 2525 inches from the main gear.

A 60-pound60\text{-pound} crate is placed on one end of a first-class lever, exactly 4 feet4\text{ feet} from the fulcrum. What downward effort force must be applied at a distance of 8 feet8\text{ feet} on the opposite side of the fulcrum to perfectly balance the lever?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 30

Cevap

30 lbs30\text{ lbs}
A lever is perfectly balanced when the turning force (torque) on one side of the fulcrum equals the torque on the other side. Torque is calculated by multiplying the force by its distance from the fulcrum. The crate creates a torque of 240 ft-lbs240\text{ ft-lbs} (60 lbs×4 ft60\text{ lbs} \times 4\text{ ft}). Because the effort is being applied twice as far from the fulcrum (8 ft8\text{ ft}), it only needs to be half the force to generate the same 240 ft-lbs240\text{ ft-lbs} of torque. Therefore, 240÷8=30 lbs240 \div 8 = 30\text{ lbs}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Set up the torque balance equation.
F1×d1=F2×d2F_1 \times d_1 = F_2 \times d_2
For a lever to be balanced, the torque (force times distance) on the left side must equal the torque on the right side.
2
Substitute the known values into the equation.
60×4=F2×860 \times 4 = F_2 \times 8
The crate applies a 60 lb60\text{ lb} force at a distance of 4 ft4\text{ ft}, and the effort force is applied at a distance of 8 ft8\text{ ft}.
3
Solve for the unknown effort force (F2F_2).
240=8×F2→F2=30240 = 8 \times F_2 \rightarrow F_2 = 30
Dividing both sides of the equation by 88 isolates F2F_2, revealing the required balancing force.

Arrange the following events in the correct chronological order to describe a single complete cycle of a standard four-stroke internal combustion engine, beginning with the intake of the fuel mixture.

Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct sequence is: 1) Intake valve opens / piston down, 2) Valves closed / piston up (Compression), 3) Spark ignites / piston down (Power), 4) Exhaust valve opens / piston up.
A standard internal combustion engine operates on a four-stroke cycle: Intake, Compression, Power, and Exhaust. First, the piston moves down to draw in air and fuel. Second, it moves up with valves closed to compress the mixture. Third, the spark plug ignites the mixture, causing a rapid expansion that forces the piston down to perform work. Finally, the piston moves up with the exhaust valve open to expel the burned gases, completing the cycle.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the starting phase (Intake).
The cycle begins by drawing in the air-fuel mixture. The piston moves downward with the intake valve open to create a vacuum.
An engine must first take in fuel before it can compress or burn it.
2
Determine the preparation phase (Compression).
The valves close and the piston moves upward to compress the mixture.
Combustion is highly inefficient unless the fuel mixture is tightly packed and pressurized first.
3
Identify the working phase (Power).
The spark plug fires, igniting the compressed gas. The resulting explosion forces the piston rapidly downward.
This is the phase that actually generates the mechanical energy to turn the crankshaft.
4
Determine the reset phase (Exhaust).
The exhaust valve opens and the piston moves upward, pushing out the leftover burned gases.
The cylinder must be emptied of spent gases so a fresh mixture can be drawn in during the next intake stroke.
