Answer:

The mean velocity is 13 ft/s.

The Reynolds number is 88,583 and it is dimensionless.

Explanation:

We have water flowing in a pipe of 1.05 in diameter.

The density is ρ=62.3 lb/ft and the viscosity is 1.2 cP.

The mean velocity can be calculated as

u=\frac{Q}{A}=\frac{Q}{\pi*D^2/4}=\frac{35gpm }{3.14*(1.05in)^2/4}\\\\  u=\frac{35}{0.865}*\frac{gal}{min}\frac{1}{in^2}*\frac{231in^3}{1gal}*\frac{1}{60s} \\\\    u=156\,in/s=13\,ft/s

The Reynolds number now can be calculated for this flow as

Re=\frac{\rho*u*D}{\mu}

being ρ: density, u: mean velocity of the fluid, D: internal diameter of the pipe and μ the dynamic viscosity.

To simplify the calculation, we can first make all the variables have coherent units.

<em>Viscosity</em>

\mu=1.2cP=\frac{1.2}{100}\frac{g}{cm*s}*\frac{1lb}{453.6g}*\frac{30.48cm}{1ft}= 0.0008\frac{lb}{ft*s}

<em>Diameter</em>

D=1.05in*(\frac{1ft}{12in} )=0.0875ft

Then the Reynolds number is

Re=\frac{\rho*u*D}{\mu}\\\\Re=62.3\frac{lb}{ft^3}*13\frac{ft}{s} *0.0875ft*\frac{1}{0.0008}*\frac{ft*s}{lb}\\\\Re=88,583

What is the mass of 2.35 moles of (NH4)3PO4?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The mass of 2.35 moles of (NH4)3PO4 is 411.156 or 411.156 grams/g.

Explanation:

By calculating the mass of the formula, (NH4)3PO4, which equals up to 174.96 grams you divide 2.35 moles by 174.96 grams to equal 411.156 grams. The way to find out the mass is to multiple the molar mass of each chemical to the number beside it such as H multiplied by 4, P multiplied by 3, and so on.

Give me a statement regarding the process of science discovery and development of atomic theory
matrenka [14]
Can you say please? Just kidding!
The process of science discovery depends upon changing your theories based upons new evidence from new experiments.  New technology allows for new experiments, leading to new theories.
