Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1RQ
Is the north magnetic pole of the earth a north polarity or a south polarity?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Whether the north magnetic pole of earth is of north polarity or south polarity.
Explanation of Solution
The phenomenon of interchanging of the magnetic north pole and magnetic south pole is termed as geomagnetic reversal. These reversal occurrences are statically random in nature. The Earth is surrounded entirely by magnetic lines of forces. It can also be said that it is surrounded by a magnetic shell. Due of the fact, that unlike magnetic poles attract each other, the south magnetic pole of the Earth attracts the north magnetic pole of the compass needle.
Thus, the north magnetic pole of earth is actually of south polarity.

**Problem 8-45.** The man has a mass of 60 kg and the crate has a mass of 100 kg. If the coefficient of static friction between his shoes and the ground is \( \mu_s = 0.4 \) and between the crate and the ground is \( \mu_c = 0.3 \), determine if the man is able to move the crate using the rope-and-pulley system shown. **Diagram Explanation:** The diagram illustrates a scenario where a man is attempting to pull a crate using a rope-and-pulley system. The setup is as follows: - **Crate (C):** Positioned on the ground with a rope attached. - **Rope:** Connects the crate to a pulley system and extends to the man. - **Pulley on Tree:** The rope runs over a pulley mounted on a tree which redirects the rope. - **Angles:** - The rope between the crate and tree forms a \(30^\circ\) angle with the horizontal. - The rope between the tree and the man makes a \(45^\circ\) angle with the horizontal. - **Man (A):** Pulling on the rope with the intention of moving the crate. This arrangement tests the…

The water enters the heat exchanger at 50°F at a flow rate of 86,000 lbm/h. For safety reasons, the water outlet temperature should never be colder than 35°F. The propylene glycol solution enters the heat exchanger at 28°F with a flow rate of 73,000 lbm/h. The port distances on the heat exchanger are Lv = 35 in and Lh = 18 in. The plate width is Lw = 21.5 2 in. The plate thickness is 0.04 in with a plate pitch of 0.12 in. The chevron angle is 30° and the plate enlargement factor is 1.17. All ports have a 2 in diameter. The fouling factor of the propylene glycol solution can be estimated as 2 ×10−5 h-ft2-°F/Btu. a. Determine the maximum number of plates the heat exchanger can have while ensuring that the water outlet temperature never drops below 35°F. b. Determine the thermal and hydraulic performance of the heat exchanger with the specified number of plates.…arrow_forward
