Explain why the following scenario describes a failure of the second step in the engineering design process, “conduct background research.” Situation: Your science teacher asks your group to design a bridge over Victoria Falls, the largest waterfall in the world. You get together and brainstorm possible types of bridges to build.

Explain the difference laminar and turbulent flow. explain it with the shear stress and the velocity profiles.

An air conditioning system consist of a 5 cm diameter pipe, operating at a pressure of 200 kpa. the air initially enters the pipe at 15°c with a velocity of 20 m/s and relative humidity of 80%. if the heat supply throughout the process is 960 w, determine the relative humidity and the temperature at the outlet

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
