The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 4 mm/s. How fast is the volume increasing when the diameter is 60 mm?

1 answer:

5 0

V = [4/3]π r^3 => [dV / dr ] = 4π r^2

[dV/dt] = [dV/dr] * [dr/dt]

[dV/dt] = [4π r^2] * [ dr/ dt]

r = 60 mm, [dr / dt] = 4 mm/s

[dV / dt ] = [4π(60mm)^2] * 4mm/s = 180,955.7 mm/s

explain the main reasons why pressure and temperature play a critical role in the stability of gas hydrates. Name two situations

Sloan [31]

Using the phase diagram of methane, the pressure and temperature play a critical role in its stability since a slight change in the pressure or temperature will cause a phase change. At low temperature and high pressure, methane hydrate becomes solid (methane hydrate + ice). When the temperature is increased, it becomes liquid. This is one of the main challenges in harvesting methane hydrate, its instability.

Determine the Reynolds number for a flow of 0.2 m^3/s through a 203 mm inner diameter circular pipe of a fluid with rho=680 kg/m

IrinaK [193]

To find a solution to this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Reynolds number and its definitions on the type of fluid.

A Reynolds number less than 2000 considers the laminar fluid, while a Reynolds number greater than 4000 is considered a turbulent fluid. (The intermediate between the two values would be a transient fluid)

The mathematical equation that defines the Reynolds number is given by

$Re = \frac{\rho V D}{\mu}$
