A wheel tractor-scraper has a gross weight of 70,400 lbs. If the road surface is dry earth having a rolling resistance factor of 100 lb/ton, what is the maximum weight on driving wheels the scraper could carry to ascend 28% grade?

What precautions should you take to prevent injuries when dealing with heavy loads?

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?

Which of the following refers to refers to how well the control system responds to sudden changes in the system. a)-transient regulation b)- distributed regulation c)-constant regulation d)-steady-state regulation
