The bars AB and AC are joined by a pin at A and a horizontal cable. The vertical cable carrying the 200-kg mass is attached to the pin at A. Determine the tension in the horizontal cable. Neglect the weights of the bars.
The bent beam ABC is attached to a pin at C and rests against a roller support at B. Neglecting the weight of the beam, find the reactions at B and C caused by the 150- kg load.
The crate weighing 400 lb is supported by three ropes concurrent at B. Find the forces in ropes AB and BC if P=460 lb.
Line LM 58mm long is parallel to HP and inclined to VP at 45. If the point L is 20mm above HP and in VP then draw it's projections, also locate it's trace.
A 50% total solids tomato puree is heated by steam as it flows through a steam injection heater (flash heating) at a rate of 500 kg/h. The steam (100% quality) is generated at 169.06 kPa and is flowing to the heater at a rate of 40 kg/h. The specific heat of the solids in the product is 3.2 kJ/kg K and the initial temperature of the puree is 40oC. Assume the specific heat of the solids in puree is not influenced by the heating process. Given: specific heat of water Cp = 4.18 kJ/kg K a. Draw a flow chart for the process with clear labeling. b. Make all necessary assumptions. c. Determine the temperature of the product leaving the heater. d. Determine the total solids content of the product after heating.
