I am trying to understand a few injection molding calculations. I will appreciate your assistance.
How do I calculate part weight for plastic injection molding?
Is it mass * density or volume * density?
My part is 29.126 grams and I am using Polypropylene (PP) which has a density of 0.899 g/cm3 .
Therefore : 29.126 * 0.899= 26.184 grams
To convert to ounce: 26.184* 1/28.3495=0.9236 ounce
Is the above correct?
How do I calculate shot weight? Please explain clearly and give and example.
How do I calculate core and cavity cost?
I will appreciate a clear and well written explanation because I want to understand how its done.
Thank you

The 40 lb plank A rests on the 30 lb block B as shown in Figure 5. The coefficient of static friction between the plank and the block is μAB = 0.35 and between the block and the ground is μBD = 0.25. Determine the largest force P that can be applied to the plank without causing motion. Report your answer in lbs but do not enter units. Neglect the thickness of the plank. Consider and show all possibilities of motion.

1. You are to do a preliminary design study for a small
demonstration steam turbine power plant.
- Steam will be provided by a small steam generator fired by
natural gas. - Your system will take in steam at 30 bar
and 400 oC.
- The steam passes through a two stage turbine. At a pressure of 10
bars, the steam leaves the first stage of the turbine and will pass
through a reheat loop in the steam generator which will boost the
temperature back up to 400 oC at this pressure. The steam will then
enter the second stage of the turbine.
- When the steam leaves the turbine, the quality should be at least
95% at the turbine exit / condenser inlet.
- The design condenser pressure is 0.70
bar.
- Heat is removed from the condenser and rejected to the
environment through a cooling tower.
For the following parts use the design turbine power output of
2.5 kW.
d) What mass flow rate is required? (10 pts)
e) At what rate must heat be produced by natural gas burners in the
steam generator to produce the steam at the turbine inlet, and how
much heat must be produced to reheat the steam between the stages?
For a heating rate range of 950-1150 BTU/scf and a cost of $8 per
100 cubic feet, what is the fuel cost per hour to run this unit?
(10 pts)
f) What is the feed water pump power demand, and what is the BWR?
