Answer:
Federal agencies
Explanation:
NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) also called between 1901 and 1988 National Bureau of Standards (NBS), it is an agency of the Technology Administration of the United States Department of Commerce. The mission of this institute is to promote innovation and industrial competition in the United States through advances in metrology, standards and technology in ways that improve economic stability and quality of life.
As part of this mission, NIST scientists and engineers continually refine the science of measurement (metrology) by creating precise engineering and manufacturing required for most current technological advances. They are also directly involved in the development and testing of standards made by the private sector and government agencies. The NIST was originally called the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), a name it had from 1901 to 1988. The progress and technological innovation of the United States depends on the abilities of the NIST, especially if we talk about four areas: biotechnology , nanotechnology, information technologies and advanced manufacturing.
Answer:
15625 moles of methane is present in this gas deposit
Explanation:
As we know,
PV = nRT
P = Pressure = 230 psia = 1585.79 kPA
V = Volume = 980 cuft = 27750.5 Liters
n = number of moles
R = ideal gas constant = 8.315
T = Temperature = 150°F = 338.706 Kelvin
Substituting the given values, we get -
1585.79 kPA * 27750.5 Liters = n * 8.315 * 338.706 Kelvin
n = (1585.79*27750.5)/(8.315 * 338.706) = 15625
Answer: 12.4 feet
Explanation:
If there is a smooth transition and there is no change in slopes, energy considerations can be used
The cube has a kinetic energy of
ke = mv^2/2 = 10 lbm * 20^2ft^2/s^2 / 2 = 2000 lbm-ft^2 / s^2
At the highest point when there is a gain in potential energy
pe = mgh = 10 lbm * 32.2 ft/s^2 * h ft = 322 lbm ft^2/s^2
If there is no loss in energies,
pe = ke
322h lbm ft^2/s^2 = 2000 lbm ft^2/s^2
h = 2000 /322 = 6.211 (ft)
= h / sin(30) = 12.4 ft
Answer:
Part A: (d/D=0.1)
DeltaV percent=42.6%
Part B:(d/D=0.01)
DeltaV percent=21.7%
Explanation:
We are going to use the following volume flow rate equation:

Above equation can be written as:


First Consider no wire i.e d/D=0
Above expression will become:


Part A: (d/D=0.1)




DeltaV percent=42.6%
Part B:(d/D=0.01)




DeltaV percent=21.7%
Answer:
Not possible.
Explanation:
According to second law of thermodynamics, the maximum efficiency any heat engine could achieve is Carnot Efficiency η defined by:

Where
and
are temperature (in Kelvin) of heat source and heatsink respectively
In our case (I will be using K = 273+°C) :

In percentage, this is 14.28% efficiency, which is the <em>maximum</em> theoretical efficiency <em>any</em> heat engine could have while working between -27 and 14 °C temperature. Any claim of more efficient heat engine between these 2 temperature are violates the second law of thermodynamics. Therefore, the claim must be false.
