An unknown immiscible liquid seeps into the bottom of an open oil tank. Some measurements indicate that the depth of the unknown

liquid is 1.5 m and the depth of the oil (specific weight = 8.5 kN/m3) floating on top is 5.0 m. A pressure gage connected to the bottom of the tank reads 65 kPa. What is the specific gravity of the unknown liquid?

Answer:

The specific weight of unknown liquid is found to be 15 KN/m³

Explanation:

The total pressure in tank is measured to be 65 KPa in the tank. But, the total pressure will be equal to the sum of pressures due to both oil and unknown liquid.

Total Pressure = Pressure of oil + Pressure of unknown liquid

65 KPa = (Specific Weight of oil)(depth of oil) + (Specific Weight of unknown liquid)(depth of unknown liquid)

65 KN/m² = (8.5 KN/m³)(5 m) + (Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid)(1.5 m)

(Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid)(1.5 m) = 65 KN/m² - 42.5 KN/m²

(Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid) = (22.5 KN/m²)/1.5 m

<u>Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid = 15 KN/m³</u>

The fan blades suddenly experience an angular acceleration of 2 rad/s2. If the blades are rotating with an initial angular veloc
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Option B

116 ft/s^{2}

Explanation:

\theta=2 rev=2(2\pi)=4\pi

\alpha \theta=0.5(\omega_f^{2}-\omega_i^{2})

\alpha (4\pi)= 0.5(\omega_f^{2}-\omega_i^{2})

\alpha (8\pi)= (\omega_f^{2}-\omega_i^{2})

(2) (8\pi)= (\omega_f^{2}-\omega_i^{2})

(2) (8\pi)= (\omega_f^{2}-4^{2})

\omega_f=8.14 rads/s

v=r\omega=1.75*8.14=14.245 ft/s

Centripetal acceleration =\omega_f^{2} r=8.14^{2}*1.75=115.95 ft/s^{2}

Tangential component=dr=2*1.75=3.5

Resultant=\sqrt{3.5^{2}+115.95^{2}}\approx 116 ft/s^{2}

How do you identify all sensors, functions, and where we can use them?
Alex17521 [72]

Sensor/Detectors/Transducers are electrical, opto-electrical, or electronic devices composed of specialty electronics or otherwise sensitive materials, for determining if there is a presence of a particular entity or function. Many vehicles including cars, trains, buses etc. all use sensors to monitor oil temperature and pressure, throttle and steering systems and so many more aspects.

Which statement about tensile stress is true? A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a t
svp [43]

Answer:

A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a tensile stress on the object.

Explanation:

Tensile stress is referred as a deforming force, in which force acts perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart, attempting to elongate it.

The tensile stress is a type of normal stress, in which a perpendicular force creates the stress to an object’s surface.

Hence, the correct option is "A."
