A Venturi tube may be used as a fluid flowmeter. Suppose the device is used at a service station to measure the flow rate of gas

leonid [27]

Answer

given,

flow rate = p = 660 kg/m³

outer radius = 2.8 cm

P₁ - P₂ = 1.20 k Pa

inlet radius = 1.40 cm

using continuity equation

A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

π r₁² v₁ = π r₁² v₂

$v_1= \dfrac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} v_2$

$v_1= \dfrac{1.4^2}{2.8^2} v_2$

$v_1= 0.25 v_2$

Applying Bernoulli's equation

$\Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)$

$\Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-(0.25 v_2)^2)$

$\Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 (1 - 0.0625)$

$v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\Delta P}{\rho(1 - 0.0625)}}$

$v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1200}{660 \times(1 - 0.0625)}}$

v₂ = 1.97 m/s

b) fluid flow rate

Q = A₂ V₂

Q = π (0.014)² x 1.97

Q = 1.21 x 10⁻³ m³/s

Help in physics please :(((

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

I am sorry I can't draw graphical ok how to draw the graph where what is your position the displacement of time and work 7 kilometres east in 2 hours and what will happen to the time and 72 in 1 hour what is the displacement you after take the displacement formula that is total time taken divided by the distance travelled ok displacement and distance travelled is different about its terms ok

A capacitor is to be constructed to have a capacitance of 100uF.The area of the plates is 6.om by 0.030m and the relative permit

lara [203]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

The area of the plates is 6 m by 0.030 m, Therefore the area = 6 m × 0.03 m = 0.18 m²

the relative permittivity of dielectric (εr) is 7.0

Permittivity of free space (εo) = 8.854 × 10^(-12)

capacitance of 100uF

potential difference (V) of 12V

d = separation between plate

The capacitance (C) of a capacitor is given by:

$C=\frac{\epsilon_o \epsilon_r A }{d}\\ 100*10^{-6}=\frac{8.854*10^{-12}*7*0.18}{d}\\ d=\frac{8.854*10^{-12}*7*0.18}{100*10^{-6}}=1.11*10^{-7}\ m$

The electric field between plates is given as:

E = V /d

$E = 12 / 1.11*10^{-7}=10.75*10^7\ V/m$
