Chapter 5.5, Problem 164RP
The ventilating fan of the bathroom of a building has a volume flow rate of 30 L/s and runs continuously. The building is located in San Francisco, California, where the average winter temperature is 12.2°C, and it is maintained at 22°C at all times. The building is heated by electricity whose unit cost is $0.12/kWh. Determine the amount and cost of the heat “vented out” per month in winter.

The stepped rod in sketch is subjected to a tensile
force that varies between 4000 and 7000 lb. The
rod has a machined surface finish everywhere except
the shoulder area,
where a grinding operation has
been performed to improve the fatigue resistance
of the rod. Using a 99% probability of survival,
determine the safety factor for infinite life if
the rod is made of AISI 1080 steel, quenched
and tempered at 800°c Use the Goodman line.

Consider a wind turbine with a blade span diameter of 120m installed at a site subjected to steady winds at 8.25 m/s. Taking the overall efficiency of thewind turbine to be 33 percent and the air density to be 1.25 kg/m3, determine the electric powergenerated by this wind turbine.
