Answer:

b. slow-moving streams.

Explanation:

In Fluid Mechanics, the Reynolds numbers indicates the existence of turbulence in fluid streams. Low Reynolds numbers are related with laminar flow. The Reynolds formula is:

$Re = \frac{\rho_{water} \cdot L_{c}}{\mu_{water}} \cdot v$

The Reynolds number is directly proportional to fluid speed. Hence, slow-moving streams are a sound example of laminar flow. The correct answer is B.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

I = 5[amp]

Explanation:

Electrical power is defined as the product of voltage by current.

$P=V*I$

where:

P = power = 1150 [W]

V = voltage = 230 [V]

I = current [amp]

Now replacing:

$1150=230*I\\I=1150/230\\I=5[amp]$

A 15 [amp] fuse must be used. Always the fuse must be larger than the operating current, to protect the equipment from very high currents. above 15 [amp]

1) A fan is to accelerate quiescent air to a velocity of 8 m/s at a rate of 9 m3/s. Determine the minimum power that must be sup

azamat

Answer:

$\dot{W} = 339.84 W$

Explanation:

given data:

flow Q = 9 m^{3}/s

velocity = 8 m/s

density of air = 1.18 kg/m^{3}

minimum power required to supplied to the fan is equal to the POWER POTENTIAL of the kinetic energy and it is given as

$\dot{W} =\dot{m}\frac{V^{2}}{2}$

here $\dot{m}$ is mass flow rate and given as

$\dot{m} = \rho*Q$

$\dot{W} =\rho*Q\frac{V^{2}}{2}$

Putting all value to get minimum power

$\dot{W} =1.18*9*\frac{8^{2}}{2}$

$\dot{W} = 339.84 W$

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The amount of heat transfer is 21,000J .

Explanation:

The equation form of thermodynamics is,

ΔQ=ΔU+W

Here, ΔQ is the heat transferred, ΔU is the change in internal energy, and W is the work done.

Substitute 0 J for W and 0 J for ΔU

ΔQ = 0J+0J

ΔQ = 0J

The change in internal energy is equal to zero because the temperature changes of the house didn’t change. The work done is zero because the volume did not change

The heat transfer is,

ΔQ=Q (in ) −Q (out )

Substitute 19000 J + 2000 J for Q(in) and 0 J for Q(out)

ΔQ=(19000J+2000J)−(0J)

=21,000J

Thus, the amount of heat transfer is 21,000J .
