Answer:

The pressure drop across the pipe also reduces by half of its initial value if the viscosity of the fluid reduces by half of its original value.

Explanation:

For a fully developed laminar flow in a circular pipe, the flowrate (volumetric) is given by the Hagen-Poiseulle's equation.

Q = π(ΔPR⁴/8μL)

where Q = volumetric flowrate

ΔP = Pressure drop across the pipe

μ = fluid viscosity

L = pipe length

If all the other parameters are kept constant, the pressure drop across the circular pipe is directly proportional to the viscosity of the fluid flowing in the pipe

ΔP = μ(8QL/πR⁴)

ΔP = Kμ

K = (8QL/πR⁴) = constant (for this question)

ΔP = Kμ

K = (ΔP/μ)

So, if the viscosity is halved, the new viscosity (μ₁) will be half of the original viscosity (μ).

μ₁ = (μ/2)

The new pressure drop (ΔP₁) is then

ΔP₁ = Kμ₁ = K(μ/2)

Recall,

K = (ΔP/μ)

ΔP₁ = K(μ/2) = (ΔP/μ) × (μ/2) = (ΔP/2)

Hence, the pressure drop across the pipe also reduces by half of its initial value if the viscosity of the fluid reduces by half of its value.

Hope this Helps!!!

Ilya [14]

Answer:

A selective medium, a differential medium, and a complex medium.

Explanation:

A selective media is a microbiological media which only support the growth of a particular specie or types of species of microorganisms,this media acts in such a way to inhibit or hinder the growth of other microorganisms.

Differential media are media that acts to Identifying particular strains of microorganisms of similar species.

Complex media are media used for the growth of microorganisms this which contains complex or a wide range of nutrients with chemical composition which may be difficult to determine.

A 100 ft long steel wire has a cross-sectional area of 0.0144 in.2. When a force of 270 lb is applied to the wire, its length in
blondinia [14]

Answer:

(a) The stress on the steel wire is 19,000 Psi

(b) The strain on the steel wire is 0.00063

(c) The modulus of elasticity of the steel is 30,000,000 Psi

Explanation:

Given;

length of steel wire, L = 100 ft

cross-sectional area, A = 0.0144 in²

applied force, F = 270 lb

extension of the wire, e = 0.75 in

<u>Part (A)</u> The stress on the steel wire;

δ = F/A

   = 270 / 0.0144

δ  = 18750 lb/in² = 19,000 Psi

<u>Part (B)</u> The strain on the steel wire;

σ = e/ L

L = 100 ft = 1200 in

σ = 0.75 / 1200

σ = 0.00063

<u>Part (C)</u> The modulus of elasticity of the steel

E = δ/σ

   = 19,000 / 0.00063

E = 30,000,000 Psi
