Answer: valving the pump discharge to reduce the flow will only result in an increase in the water velocity according to the laws of continuity of flow.
Q = AV = constant.
The pump speed of 150 gpm is, and will remain constant. Valving simply reduces flow area A, which is balanced out by increased velocity V of water through the pipe.
This does not affect the pump speed Q (flow rate) and hence it remains the same.
Answer:
A selective medium, a differential medium, and a complex medium.
Explanation:
A selective media is a microbiological media which only support the growth of a particular specie or types of species of microorganisms,this media acts in such a way to inhibit or hinder the growth of other microorganisms.
Differential media are media that acts to Identifying particular strains of microorganisms of similar species.
Complex media are media used for the growth of microorganisms this which contains complex or a wide range of nutrients with chemical composition which may be difficult to determine.
Answer:
80.7lbft/hr
Explanation:
Flow rate of water in the system = 3.6x10^-6
The height h = 100
1s = 1/3600h
This implies that
Q = 3.6x10^-6/[1/3600]
Q = 0.0000036/0.000278
Q = 0.01295
Then the power is given as
P = rQh
The specific weight of water = 62.3 lb/ft³
P = 62.3 x 0.01295 x 100
P = 80.675lbft/h
When approximated
P = 80.7 lbft/h
This is the average power that could be generated in a year.
This answers the question and also corresponds with the answer in the question.
Answer: c) 450 kPa
Explanation:
Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.
(At constant temperature and number of moles)
where,
= initial pressure of gas = 150 kPa
= final pressure of gas = ?
= initial volume of gas = v L
= final volume of gas =
Therefore, the new pressure of the gas will be 450 kPa.
