12.19 The impeller of a radial-flow turbine has an outer radius of 4 ft, turning at 200 rpm. The volume flow rate is 1000 ft³/s, and it discharges in the axial direction. Neglect all losses. If the tangential component of the velocity at the inlet is 5 ft/s, find: (a) The torque exerted on the impeller. (b) The power developed by the machine.

Project 7: In this project you were assigned to explore your mechanical design and system capabilities. Your manger asked you to prepare a technical research report to evaluate the effects of misalignment of shafts and the measures that are taken to prevent problems from occurring. The hiring committee asked you to deliver a short report showing your evaluation (no more than 600 words).

Jeff was just hired by GSI, Inc. to be their Environmental and Safety Coordinator. This is Jeff's first position after completing his engineering degree. He had taken a course in safety engineering as part of his studies and felt confident that he could handle the job. Management at GSI, Inc. has assured him that they are committed to maintaining a safe workplace. They have never had an individual dedicated to this task full-time. They will implement his recommendations if he can justify them. As Jeff begins to get familiar with the operations, he spends considerable time on the production floor. He notices workers clean their tools before break with a liquid from an unmarked 55-gallon drum. They also use this liquid to clean residue from their skin. They use paper towels to dry their tools and hands, throw these towels in the trash, and head to the break room for a snack and/or smoke. In talking with the workers, Jeff learns of some of their concerns. Several people mention…
Good morning interns, This is Ms. Gorman from the sales department. We have just secured a new, multi-million-dollar account! We are so good here in the sales department of Heavy-Duty Box Inc. The manufacturing director, Mr. Tsosie, has instructed me to send this problem out to all of you as this will be a deciding factor in which of you get offered the full-time positions available at the end of the internship! Our new client, Beastie Bearings Inc., needs the heaviest duty box we make here at Heavy-Duty Box for their bearings. The following email from Ms. Venegas from Beastie Bearings provides the information you will need. Remember, our mark-up sales price is 150% of what it costs us to manufacture the product. The cheaper it is for us to produce the box, the lower the cost for our client. There is also a grading rubric attached that Mr. Tsosie will be utilizing in evaluating your work. I would advise you to follow it well if you want a position! Good luck interns, Ms. Frances…
Solution 1: Ergonomic Assessment and Improvement. An ergonomic assessment of Paula's workstation could identify areas where adjustments could be made to reduce strain on her wrists. This could include adjusting the height of the workstation, providing wrist supports, or changing the design of the tools she uses. The strength of this solution is that it directly addresses the physical strain causing Paula's discomfort. However, the weakness is that it may require investment in new equipment or tools, and the effectiveness will depend on the specific changes made. Solution 2: Job Rotation. Paula could be rotated between different tasks more frequently, reducing the amount of time she spends on tasks that strain her wrists. This could also include training other workers to perform the welding and gaging operations, allowing for more flexibility in task assignments. The strength of this solution is that it reduces the repetitive strain on Paula's wrists. The weakness is that it requires…
