PROBLEM 1:
A Diesel engine overcome a friction of 200 HP and delivers 1000 BHP. Air consumption is 90 kg per minute.
The Air/fuel ratio is 15 to 1. Find the following:
1. Indicated horsepower
2. The Mechanical efficiency
3. The Brake Specific Fuel Consumption

Q1- Answer with true or false and rewrite the false statements completely in
correct form, otherwise no mark will be put on the false statements.

2
To represent a location on earth surface you need to define its altitude and longitude
angles.
3
Solar zenith and solar incidence angles have the same value for horizontal surface.
At sunset time the value of solar altitude angle is maximum.
4
The angle which represents the inclination of a given surface is the zenith angle
5

7
8
When the absolute value of sun-wall azimuth angle exceeds 90' this means that the sun
rays are reaching the receiving plane.
The solar irradiance and the solar irradiation have the same physical meaning.
In the case of clear sky weather, the beam solar irradiation on a horizontal surface is less
than the diffused irradiation.
The total solar radiation received by a tilted surface is the same as that…

Question 2
You are a biomedical engineer working for a small orthopaedic firm that fabricates rectangular shaped fracture
fixation plates from titanium alloy (model = "Ti Fix-It") materials. A recent clinical report documents some problems with the plates
implanted into fractured limbs. Specifically, some plates have become permanently bent while patients are in rehab and doing partial
weight bearing activities.
Your boss asks you to review the technical report that was generated by the previous test engineer (whose job you now have!) and used to
verify the design. The brief report states the following... "Ti Fix-It plates were manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V (grade 5) and machined into
solid 150 mm long beams with a 4 mm thick and 15 mm wide cross section. Each Ti Fix-It plate was loaded in equilibrium in a 4-point bending
test (set-up configuration is provided in drawing below), with an applied load of 1000N. The maximum stress in this set-up was less than the
yield stress for the…

Cable AB has a length of 150 ft and Cable BC has a length of 195 ft. Harper has a weight of
100 lbs (this is the force from Harper). The angle formed by 0-12° and the angle formed
by a 37 Assume that the harness holding your friend is perfectly vertical when the
