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

al. The velocity varied with the radius across the flow as V = 1/r m/s where r is in meters. Find the difference in depth of the liquid from the inside to the outside radius. The inside radius of the bend is 1 m and the outside radius is 3 m.

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.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Wind energy is converted to Mechanical energy  which is then converted in to  electrical energy

Explanation:

In a wind mill the following energy conversions take place

a) Wind energy is converted into Mechanical energy (rotation of rotor blades)

b) Mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy (by using electric motor)

This electrical energy is then used for transmission through electric lines.

a cubical box 20-cm on a side is contructed from 1.2 cm thick concrete panels. A 100-W light bulb is sealed inside the box. What
Flura [38]

Answer:

Temperature on the inside ofthe box

Explanation:

The power of the light bulb is the rate of heat conduction of the bulb, dq/dt = 100 W

The thickness of the wall, L = 1.2 cm = 0.012m

Length of the cube's side, x = 20cm = 0.2 m

The area of the cubical box, A = 6x²

A = 6 * 0.2² = 6 * 0.04

A = 0.24 m²

Temperature of the surrounding, T_0 = 20^0 C = 273 + 20 = 293 K

Temperature of the inside of the box, T_{in} = ?

Coefficient of thermal conductivity, k = 0.8 W/m-K

The formula for the rate of heat conduction is given by:

dq/dt = \frac{kA(T_{in} - T_0)}{L} \\\\100 = \frac{0.8*0.24(T_{in} - 293)}{0.012}\\\\T_{in} - 293 = \frac{100 * 0.012}{0.8*0.24} \\\\T_{in} - 293 = 6.25\\\\T_{in} = 293 + 6.25\\\\T_{in} = 299.25 K\\\\T_{in} = 299.25 - 273\\\\T_{in} = 26.25^0 C

Ldentiy three industries that often need the skills of mechanical engineers. Briefly explain the skills that mechanical engineer
const2013 [10]

Answer:

3 industries that often need the skills of mechanical engineers are:

  • Automotive industry
  • Construction industry
  • Aerospace industry

The key skills mechanical engineers bring to these industries are effective technical skills, the ability to work under pressure, problem-solving skills, creativity and teamwork.

Explanation:

Automotive industry: The skills mechanical engineers bring to automotive industry include designing new cars for development, conducting laboratory testing for performance safety, and troubleshooting design or manufacturing issues with recalled vehicles. Automotive engineers have:

  • good mathematical skills, for instance in calculating the stresses power trains and other parts have to withstand;  
  • understanding and application of principles of physics and chemistry to properly design engines, electrical systems and other car components;  
  • good computer skills, because 21st century engineers rely on computer-assisted design software;
  • knowledge of ergonomics, which is applied in the process of designing a car so that the driver and passengers have a comfortable and functional environment, is another skill mechanical; engineers need.

Construction industry: Mechanical engineers are responsible for designing, building, establishing, and maintaining all kinds of mechanical machinery, tools, and components in the construction industry.

Aerospace industry: Mechanical engineers in aerospace industry produce specifications for design, development, manufacture and installing of new or modified mechanical components or systems. They design more fuel-efficient aircraft that cut emissions and build the fleets of satellites that power modern GPS technology.
