Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason for which the aluminium is used for airplane bodies is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Aluminum is soft, non-magnetic and ductile metal which also forms an alloy by melting with copper silicon.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The reason for polyurethane to be used for alignment of teeth is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Polyurethane is a polymer made up of organic units by combining units of urethane. The polyurethane is a thermosetting polymer which does not melt on heating.

Interpretation Introduction

Find the mathematical expression in fourier series for this output below shown in the image. This must have the terms ao, ak and bk
Q6: A turbocharged engine with a compression ratio of 8 is being designed using an air standard cycle. The ambient air is assumed to be 300K and 100 kPa. The temperature at the end of the compression in the cylinder is desired to be 1000K, assuming no combustion prior to reaching TDC. At the end of the cylinder expansion the temperature is also desired to be 1000K. If both the turbine and the compressor have mechanical efficiencies of 80%, what will be the pressure ratio of the compressor and what will be the turbine exhaust temperature?
