Communication satellites are placed in a geosynchronous orbit,that is, in a circular orbit such that they complete one full revolution about the earth in one sidereal day (23.934 h), and thus app
In an experiment similar to the procedure set out for Part (A) of the Calorimetry experiment, 1.500 g of Mg(s) was combined with 125.0 mL of 1.0 M HCl.
A six-station automatic assembly line has an ideal cycle time of 12 sec. Downtime occurs for two reasons. First, mechanical and electrical failures cause line stops that occur with a frequency of once
Saturated water at mean temperature = 20 °C, flows inside a 25-mm-ID circular tube which is electrically heated to provide a constant heat flux over the entire length.
Consider the thin-walled beam section illustrated in the figure below. The beam has a vertical load of V = 500 kN acting on one end and is rigidly supported at the other end as illustrated.
A preheater involves the use of condensing steam at 100C on the inside of a bank of tubes to heat air that enters at 1 atm and 25C.
The wall of a cold storage consists of three layers- an outer layer of ordinary bricks, 25 cm thick, a middle layer of cork, 10 cm thick and an inner layer of cement, 6 cm thick.
