A ________ can be installed in a cast-iron block to repair a worn or cracked cylinder. Question 24 options:

Water flows at a rate of 10 gallons per minute in a new horizontal 0.75?in. diameter galvanized iron pipe. Determine the pressur

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

$\frac{\delta p }{l} = 30.4 lb/ft^3$

Explanation:

Given data:

flow rate = 10 gallon per minute = 0.0223 ft^3/sec

diameter = 0.75 inch

we know discharge is given as

Q = VA

solve for velocity V = \frac{Q}{A}[/tex]

$V = \frac{0.223}{\frac{\pi}{4} \frac{0.75}{12}}$

V = 7.27 ft/sec

we know that Reynold number

$Re = \frac{VD}{\nu}$

$Re = \frac{7.27 \times \frac{0.75}{12}}{1.21\times 10^{-5}}$

$Re = 3.76 \times 10^4$

calculate the $\frac{\epsilon }{D}$ ratio to determine the fanning friction f

$\frac{\epsilon }{D} = \frac{0.0005}{\frac{0.75}{12}} = 0.008$

from moody diagram f value corresonding to Re and $\frac{\epsilon }{D}$ is 0.037

for horizontal pipe

$\delta p = \frac{f l \rho v^2}{2D}$

$\frac{\delta p }{l} = \frac{1 \times 0.037 \times 1.94 \times 7.27}{\frac{0.75}{12}}$

where 1.94 slug/ft^3is density of water

$\frac{\delta p }{l} = 30.4 lb/ft^3$

With reference to the NSPE Code of Ethics, which one of the following statements is true regarding the ethical obligations of th

34kurt

Answer: c. The VW engineers involved were ethically obligated to hold paramount the health, welfare and safety of the public even if their supervisors directed them to implement software and hardware that enabled cheating on the emissions testing software.

Explanation: The National Society of professional Engineers, NSPE define the code of ethics which must guide engineers in their duty. These codes act as principles of personal conduct, towards the public and their employers.

One of the areas covered by these codes is overriding importance of the safety and health of the public to any other factor. In addition, engineers are to avoid deception and maintain the reputation of their profession. These cannot be sacrificed for the financial gain of their employers or explained away by saying they are following the direction of their employers. While they have certain responsibilities to their employers, the health welfare and safety of the public is more important.

Why might construction crews want to install pipes before the foundation is poured

Crazy boy [7]

The answer is choice C

Explanation:

As during construction ,the site is cleared for all debris before laying out the foundation. Even the sewer lines are dug out .

So it will be useful for the construction crews to connect the pipes to the sewer lines before the foundation is poured.

But usually the steps take in construction activity is:- first the site is cleared for the foundation to be poured and once the foundation wall is set , then all utilities , including plumbing and electrical activities are done.,

After this process is over, the city inspector comes to check whether the foundation has been laid down as per the code of construction.

Only after that the rest of the construction activity follows through.

A well insulated turbine operates at steady state. Steam enters the turbine at 4 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 3015.4 kJ/kg an

Anarel [89]

Answer:

power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW

Explanation:

given data

pressure = 4 MPa

specific enthalpy h1 = 3015.4 kJ/kg

velocity v1 = 10 m/s

pressure = 0.07 MPa

specific enthalpy h2 = 2431.7 kJ/kg

velocity v2 = 90 m/s

mass flow rate = 11.95 kg/s

solution

we apply here thermodynamic equation that

energy equation that is

$h1 + \frac{v1}{2} + q = h2 + \frac{v2}{2} + w$

put here value with

turbine is insulated so q = 0

so here

$3015.4 *1000 + \frac{10^2}{2} = 2431.7 * 1000 + \frac{90^2}{2} + w$

solve we get

w = 579700 J/kg = 579.7 kJ/kg

and

W = mass flow rate × w

W = 11.95 × 579.7

W = 6927.415 kW

power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW

The weatherman states that the current temperature is 95 F and the dew point is 74 F. What is the current relative humidity?

spayn [35]

Answer:

Current Relative Humidity is 29.623

Given:

Current Temperature, $T_{c} = 95 F = 35^{\circ}C$

Dew point temperature, $T_{d} = 74 F = 23.34^{\circ}C$

Solution:

Now, in order to calculate the Relative Humidity, RH, we use the given formula:

$T_{d} =100( \frac{\frac{aT_{c}}{b + T}b + lnRH}{a - \frac{aT_{c}}{b + T} + lnRH})$

where

a = 17.625

b = 237.7

Now, using the above formula and given values:

$23.34 = (237.7\frac{\frac{17.625\times 35}{ 237.7 + 35} + lnRH}{17.625 - \frac{17.625\times 35}{237.7 + 35} + lnRH})$

$23.34(17.625 - 2.26 + lnRH) = (237.7\times 2.26 + lnRH)$

$358.62 + 23.34lnRH) = (537.20 + lnRH)$

On solving the above eqn, we get:

RH = 29.623
