1.Why is the hole missing ?
•Operator error.
2.Why did the operator make the error ?
•He wasn’t inspecting the parts as required.
3.Why wasn’t he inspecting the parts ?
•The supervisor told him we are behind in the shipping
schedule.
4.Why are we behind in the shipping schedule ?
•The raw material was late in arriving.
5.Why was the raw material late in arriving ?•The
supplier underestimated the lead time.
I want to ask him different answers in the same way
Please ?

A steel drill rod that is 10 mm in diameter and 20 cm long is being heat treated in an oil bath. The 1050°C rod is quenched and held at 700°C and then quenched a second time to 30°C. Calculate the quantities of heat that must be removed at the two quenching stages. Weight density of steel as ρw = 76 kN/m3 , The specific heat of steel is c= 0.50 kJ/(kg . ºC).

Combustion gases with an average specific heat ratio of k=1.33 and a gas constant of R=0.280 kJ/kgK enter a 10-cm-diameter adiabatic duct with inlet conditions of Ma1=2,21 T1=521 K, and P1 =182,1 kPa. If a normal shock occurs at a location 2021 mm from the inlet, determine the velocity, temperature, and pressure at the duct exit. Take the average friction factor of the duct to be 0.01021. Calculate the static stagnation pressure, temperature and density values of the flow at the duct outlet.
