Q1 / An axial load of 75 kN was applied to a steel rod
of 3 m in length and 0.025 m in diameter. Calculate the change in
length (∆L), Poisson’s ratio, percent elongation and percent
reduction in
area. Take change in diameter (∆d) = 5.73 x10 mm and E = 200 kN /
mm .

Whaley Distributors is a wholesale distributor of electronic components. Financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, reported the following amounts and subtotals ($ in millions):

In 2021, the following situations occurred or came to light:
a. Internal auditors discovered that ending inventories reported on the financial statements the two previous years were misstated due to faulty internal controls. The errors were in the following amounts:
2019 inventory................Overstated by $12 million
2020 inventory...............Understated by $10 million
b. A liability was accrued in 2019 for a probable payment of $7 million in connection with a lawsuit ultimately settled in December 2021 for $4 million.
c. A patent costing $18 million at the beginning of 2019, expected to benefit operations for a total of six years, has not been amortized since acquired.
d. Whaley’s conveyer equipment was depreciated by the sum-of-the-years’-digits (SYD) basis since it was acquired at the beginning of 2019 at a cost of $30 million. It has an expected useful life of five years and no expected residual value. At the beginning of 2021, Whaley decided to switch to straight-line depreciation.
Required:
For each situation
1. Prepare any journal entry necessary as a direct result of the change or error correction, as well as any adjusting entry for 2021 related to the situation described. (Ignore tax effects.)
2. Determine the amounts to be reported for each of the five items shown above from the 2019 and 2020 financial statements when those amounts are reported again in the 2019–2021 comparative financial statements.

The parking lot of a shopping center is square of sides a, delimited by sills of height h, and the entrance to the parking lot is width c. During the last rain it was flooded, and the only escape route was entrance c. To avoid future flooding, it is necessary to determine the time t in which the water takes to evacuate from the enclosure. For the effect, a 1: 100 scale model is used and it is observed that this time depends on all the parking distances, on gravity, the viscosity and density of the rainwater. Determine the dimensionless numbers involved in the problem; ii) if the model takes 8 minutes to drain the water, how long must the barrier be closed for vehicles to enter the parking lot again?

You are going to empty a compressed air tank, but you want to do it in a way that results in the contents inside the tank remaining isenthalpic. If the initial state of air in the tank is 1500 psia and 100 °F, and it is emptied until the pressure is 14.7 psia, determine the heat transfer required to keep the air in the tank isenthalpic. The initial mass in the tank is 10 lbm and the final mass is 0.098 lbm. Assume ideal gas behavior.

An air-conditioned room is to be maintained at 18oC, percentage saturation 40%. The fabric heat gains are 3000 W and there are a maximum of 20 people in the room at any time. Neglecting all other heat gains or losses calculate the required volume flow rate of air to be supplied to the room and its percentage saturation when the air supply temperature is 10oC. (Sensible heat gains per person = 100 W; latent heat gains per person = 30W; barometric pressure = 1.01325 bar)

A water tank consists of a cylindrical part of radius r and height h and a hemispherical top. The tank is to be constructed to hold 600 m3 when filled. The surface area of the cylindrical part is 2πrh, and its volume is πr2h. The surface area of the hemispherical top is given by 2πr2, and its volume is given by 2πr3/3. The cost to construct the cylindrical part of the tank is $400 per square meter of surface area; the hemispherical part costs $600 per square meter. Use the fminbnd function to compute the radius that results in the least cost. Compute the corresponding height h.
