A manometer containing a fluid with a density of 60 lbm/ft3 is attached to a tank filled with air. If the gage pressure of the a

ir in the tank is 9.4 psig and the atmospheric pressure is 12.5 psia, the fluid-level difference between the two columns, h, in feet is

Answer:

The fluid level difference in the manometer arm = 22.56 ft.

Explanation:

Assumption: The fluid in the manometer is incompressible, that is, its density is constant.

The fluid level difference between the two arms of the manometer gives the gage pressure of the air in the tank.

And P(gage) = ρgh

ρ = density of the manometer fluid = 60 lbm/ft³

g = acceleration due to gravity = 32.2 ft/s²

ρg = 60 × 32.2 = 1932 lbm/ft²s²

ρg = 1932 lbm/ft²s² × 1lbf.s²/32.2lbm.ft = 60 lbf/ft³

h = fluid level difference between the two arms of the manometer = ?

P(gage) = 9.4 psig = 9.4 × 144 = 1353.6 lbf/ft²

1353.6 = ρg × h = 60 lbf/ft³ × h

h = 1353.6/60 = 22.56 ft

A diagrammatic representation of this setup is presented in the attached image.

Hope this helps!

Determine the dimensions for W if W = P L^3 / (M V^2) where P is a pressure, L is a length, M is a mass, and V is a velocity.
Eva8 [605]

Correct answer is option E. No dimensions

As we know formula Pressure (P) is \frac{F}{A}

also,

  • Dimensional formula of <em>Pressure is </em>M^{1}L^{-1}T^{-2}
  • Dimensional formula of <em>length is L </em>
  • Dimensional formula of <em>mass is M</em>
  • Dimensional formula  of <em>velocity is </em>L^{1} T^{-1}

So, as given W=\frac{P*L^{3} }{M*V^{2} }

Dimensional formula of W =\frac{M^{1}L^{-1}T^{-2}  L^{3}  }{M^{1} L^{2}T^{-2}   }

since all terms get cancelled

Work is dimensionless i.e no dimensions

the increase of current when 15 V is applied to 10000ohm rheostat which is adjusted to 1000ohm value​
Anastasy [175]
Given data:
•) applied voltage = 15 V
•). Resistance = 1000 ohm

Required:
•). The magnitude of current= ?

•••••••••••••SOLUTION•••••••••••••

We can find the relation ship between current, voltage and resistance with the help of Ohms law.

According to ohms law;

V= IR.

Rearranging the above equation;

I= V/ R

Putt the values in the above equation; we get

I= 15V/ 1000ohm

I = 0.015 A( ampere)

••••••••••••••• CONCLUSION•••••••

The value of the current would be 0.15 ampere when Resistance is equal to 1000 and that of Voltage is equal to 15 V.

The annual inventory cost C for a manufacturer is given below, where Q is the order size when the inventory is replenished. Find
Nataly_w [17]

The change in annual cost when Q is increased from 340 to 341 is -1.23 and the instantaneous rate of change when Q = 340 is -1.25

<h3>How to find the Instantaneous rate of change?</h3>

The annual inventory cost C for a manufacturer is given as;

C = (1012000/Q) + 7.5Q

where Q is the order size when the inventory is replenished.

Now, the change in C can be calculated by evaluating the cost function at Q = 340 and Q = 341

Change in C = [1,012,000/341 + 7.5*341] - [1,012,000/340 + 7.5*340] ≈ -1.23

Instantaneous rate of change in C is first order derivative C':

C'(Q) = -1,012,000/(Q²) + 7.5

C'(340) = -1,012,000/(340²) + 7.5 ≈ -1.25
