Answer:

a) Hydroplaning

Explanation:

When a wall of water separates the tire on a vehicle from the roadway then the condition is known as hydroplaning or aquaplaning. Skidding of the vehicle is a possibility that may arise due to hydroplaning. However hydroplaning may not immediately result in vehicle stopping abruptly. So among the given options, Hydroplaning fits the scenario specified in the question.

According to fire regulations in a town, the pressure drop in a commercial steel, horizontal pipe must not exceed 2.0 psi per 25

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

6.37 inch

Explanation:

Thinking process:

We need to know the flow rate of the fluid through the cross sectional pipe. Let this rate be denoted by Q.

To determine the pressure drop in the pipe:

Using the Bernoulli equation for mass conservation:

$\frac{P1}{\rho } + \frac{v_{2} }{2g} +z_{1} = \frac{P2}{\rho } + \frac{v2^{2} }{2g} + z_{2} + f\frac{l}{D} \frac{v^{2} }{2g}$

thus

$\frac{P1-P2}{\rho } = f\frac{l}{D} \frac{v^{2} }{2g}$

The largest pressure drop (P1-P2) will occur with the largest f, which occurs with the smallest Reynolds number, Re or the largest V.

Since the viscosity of the water increases with temperature decrease, we consider coldest case at T = 50⁰F

from the tables

Re= 2.01 × 10⁵

Hence, f = 0.018

Therefore, pressure drop, (P1-P2)/p = 2.70 ft

This occurs at ae presure change of 1.17 psi

Correlating with the chart, we find that the diameter will be D= 0.513

A reservoir delivers water to a horizontal pipeline 39 long The first 15 m has a diameter of 50 mm, after which it suddenly beco

allsm [11]

Answer:

The difference of head in the level of reservoir is 0.23 m.

Explanation:

For pipe 1

$d_1=50 mm,f_1=0.0048$

For pipe 2

$d_2=75 mm,f_2=0.0058$

Q=2.8 l/s

$Q=2.8\times 10^{-3]$

We know that Q=AV

$Q=A_1V_1=A_2V_2$

$A_1=1.95\times 10^{-3}m^2$

$A_2=4.38\times 10^{-3} m^2$

$So V_2=0.63 m/s,V_1=1.43 m/s$

head loss (h)

$h=\dfrac{f_1L_1V_1^2}{2gd_1}+\dfrac{f_2L_2V_2^2}{2gd_2}+0.5\dfrac{V_1^2}{2g}$

Now putting the all values

$h=\dfrac{0.0048\times 15\times 1.43^2}{2\times 9.81\times 0.05}+\dfrac{0.0058\times 24\times 0.63^2}{2\times 9.81\times 0.075}+0.5\dfrac{1.43^2}{2\times 9.81}$

So h=0.23 m

So the difference of head in the level of reservoir is 0.23 m.

State five applications of thermochromic materials

rusak2 [61]

Explanation:

The end-use industries of thermochromic materials include packaging, printing & coating, medical, textile, industrial, and others. Printing & coating is the fastest-growing end-use industry of thermochromic materials owing to a significant increase in the demand for thermal paper for POS systems. The use of thermochromic materials is gaining momentum for interactive packaging that encourages consumers to take a product off the shelf and use it.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer: There is a hydraulic jump

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the depth of flow downstream of the gate

y1 = $C_{c} y_{g}$ ----------- ( 1 )

Cc ( concentration coefficient ) = 0.61 ( assumed )

Yg ( depth of gate opening ) = 0.5

hence equation 1 becomes

y1 = 0.61 * 0.5 = 0.305 m

calculate the flow per unit width q

q = Q / b ----------- ( 2 )

Q = 10 m^3 /s

b = 2 m

hence equation 2 becomes

q = 10 / 2 = 5 m^2/s

next calculate the depth before hydraulic jump y2 by using the hydraulic equation

answer : where y1 < y2 hence a hydraulic jump occurs in the lined channel

attached below is the remaining part of the solution
