A freshwater jet boat takes in water through side vents and ejects it through a nozzle of diameter D = 75 mm; the jet speed is V

j. The drag on the boat is given by Fdrag =kV2, where V is the boat speed. Find an expression for the steady speed, V, in terms of water density rho, flow rate through the system of Q, constant k, and jet speed Vj. A jet speed Vj = 15 m=s produces a boat speed of V = 10 m=s. (a) Under these conditions, what is the new flow rate Q? (b) Find the value of the constant k. (c) What speed V will be produced if the jet speed is increased to Vj = 25 m=s? (d) What will be the new flow rate?

A light bar AD is suspended from a cable BE and supports a 20-kg block at C. The ends A and D of the bar are in contact with fri
babymother [125]

Answer:

Tension in cable BE= 196.2 N

Reactions A and D both are  73.575 N

Explanation:

The free body diagram is as attached sketch. At equilibrium, sum of forces along y axis will be 0 hence

T_{BE}-W=0 hence

T_{BE}=W=20*9.81=196.2 N

Therefore, tension in the cable, T_{BE}=196.2 N

Taking moments about point A, with clockwise moments as positive while anticlockwise moments as negative then

196.2\times 0.125- 196.2\times 0.2+ D_x\times 0.2=0

24.525-39.24+0.2D_x=0

D_x=73.575 N

Similarly,

A_x-D_y=0

A_x=73.575 N

Therefore, both reactions at A and D are 73.575 N

Ultimate tensile strength is: (a) The stress at 0.2% strain (b) The stress at the onset of plastic deformation (c) The stress at
MissTica

Answer:

By definition the ultimate tensile strength is the maximum stress in the stress-strain deformation. The stress at 0.2% strain, the stress at the onset of plastic deformation, the stress at the end of the elastic deformation and the stress at the fracture correspond, by definition, to other points of the stress-strain curve.

It is possible to maintain a pressure of 10 kPa in a condenser that is being cooled by river water entering at 20 °C?
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Yes, it is possible to maintain a pressure of 10 kPa in a condenser that is being cooled by river water that is entering at 20 °C because this temperature (20 °C) of the external cooling water is less than the saturation temperature of steam which is which is 45.81 °C, and heated by a boiler; as a result of this condition, coupled with the assumption that the turbine, pump, and interconnecting tube are adiabatic, and the condenser exchanges its heat with the external cooling river water, it possible to maintain a pressure of 10 kPa.

A cold air standard gas turbine engine with a thermal efficiency of 56.9 % has a minimum pressure of 100 kP
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

a) 5.2 kPa

b) 49.3%

Explanation:

Given data:

Thermal efficiency ( л ) = 56.9% = 0.569

minimum pressure ( P1 ) = 100 kpa

<u>a) Determine the pressure at inlet to expansion process</u>

P2 = ?

r = 1.4

efficiency = 1 - [ 1 / (rp)\frac{r-1}{r} ]

   0.569   = 1 - [ 1 / (rp)^0.4/1.4

1 - 0.569  = 1 / (rp)^0.285

∴ (rp)^0.285 = 0.431

rp = 0.0522

note : rp = P2 / P1

therefore P2 = rp * P1 = 0.0522 * 100 kpa

                                   = 5.2 kPa  

b) Thermal efficiency

Л = 1 - [ 1 / ( 10.9 )^0.285 ]

   = 0.493 = 49.3%

Liquid flows with a free surface around a bend. The liquid is inviscid and incompressible, and the flow is steady and irrotation
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

9 cm

Explanation:

The liquid on the bend will be affected by two accelerations: gravity and centripetal force.

Gravity will be of 9.81 m/s^2 pointing down at all points.

The centripetal acceleration will be of

ac = v^2/r

Pointing to the center of the bend (perpendicular to gravity).

The velocity will depend on the radius

v = (1 m^2/s) / r

Replacing:

ac = (1/r)^2 / r

ac = (1 m^4/s^2) / r^3

If we set up a cylindrical reference system with origin at the center of the bend, the total acceleration will be

a = (-1/r^3 * i - 9.81 * j)

The surface of the liquid will be an equipotential surface, this means all points on the surface have the same potential energy.

The potential energy of the gravity field is:

pg = g * h

The potential energy of the centripetal force is:

pc = ac * r

Then the potential field is:

p = -1/r^2 * - 9.81*h

Points on the surface at r = 1 m and r = 3 m have the same potential.

-1/1^2 * - 9.81*h1 = -1/3^2 * - 9.81*h2

-1 - 9.81*h1 = -1/9 - 9.81*h2

-1 + 1/9 = 9.81 * (h1 - h2)

h1 - h2 = (-8/9) / 9.81

h2 - h1 = 0.09 m

The outer part will be 9 cm higher than the inner part.
