Answer:

the absolute pressure in the smaller pipe = 19.63 psi

Explanation:

Let A be the diameter of the first pipe = 3 inches

Let B be the diameter of the second pipe.  = 1.5 inches

To feet (ft) ; we have

Diameter of the pipe A D_1 = (\dfrac{3}{12})ft = 0.25  \ ft

Diameter of pipe B  D_1 = (\dfrac{1.5}{12})ft = 0.125  \ ft

Temperature T = 120° F = (120+ 460)°R

= 580 ° R

The pressure gage to atmospheric pressure ; we have:

P_{Absolute }=P _{Atm} + P_{guage}

where;

atmospheric pressure = 1.47 psi

pressure gage = 20 psi

P_{Absolute }=(1.47+20)psi

P_{Absolute }=34.7 \ psi

To lb/ft²; we have:

P_{Absolute }=(34.7 *144 ) lb/ft^2

P_{Absolute }= 4.998.6 fb/ft²

The density of carbon dioxide can be calculated by using the relation

\rho = \dfrac{P}{RT}

\rho = \dfrac{4996.8}{(1130 \ lb /slug ^0 R)*(580{^0} R)}

\rho = 7.64*10^{-3}\ slug /ft^3

Formula for calculating cross sectional area is

A = \dfrac{\pi}{4}D

For diameter of pipe D_1 = 0.025

A₁ = \dfrac{\pi}{4}*0.25^2

A₁ = 0.04909 ft²

For diameter of pipe D_2 - 0.0125

A₂ =\dfrac{\pi}{4}*0.125^2

A₂ = 0.012227 ft²

Using the continuity equation to determine the velocities V₁ and V₂ respectively.

For V₁

Q = A₁V₁

V₁ = Q₁/ A₁

V₁ = 1.5/0.04909

V₁ = 30.557 ft/s

For V₂

Q = A₂V₂

V₂= Q₂/ A₂

V₂ = 1.5/0.04909

V₂ = 30.557 ft/s

Finally; using Bernoulli's Equation to the flow of the carbon dioxide from the larger pipe to the smaller pipe ; we have:

p_1 + \dfrac{\rho V_1^2}{2}+\gamma Z_1= p_2 + \dfrac{\rho V_2^2}{2}+\gamma Z_2

Since the pipe is horizontal then;

\gamma Z_1= \gamma Z_2

So;

p_1 + \dfrac{\rho V_1^2}{2}= p_2 + \dfrac{\rho V_2^2}{2}

p_2 =p_1 +\dfrac{1}{2}  \rho(V_1^2-V_2^2)

p_2 =4996.8+\dfrac{1}{2}  *7.624*10^{-3}(30.557^2-122.23^2)

p_2 =4943.41 \ lb/ft^2

To psi;

p_2 =\dfrac{4943.41 }{144}psi

p_2 =34.33 \ psi gage

The absolute pressure in the smaller pipe can be calculated as:

p_2 _{absolute} = 34.33 - 14.7

p_2 _{absolute} = 19.63 \ \  absolute

Hence, the absolute pressure in the smaller pipe = 19.63 psi

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

a) v = +/- 0.323 m/s

b) x = -0.080134 m

c) v = +/- 1.004 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

                             a = - (0.1 + sin(x/b))

b = 0.8

v = 1 m/s @ x = 0

Find:

(a) the velocity of the particle when x = -1 m

(b) the position where the velocity is maximum

(c) the maximum velocity.

Solution:

- We will compute the velocity by integrating a by dt.

                           a = v*dv / dx =  - (0.1 + sin(x/0.8))

- Separate variables:

                           v*dv = - (0.1 + sin(x/0.8)) . dx

-Integrate from v = 1 m/s @ x = 0:

                          0.5(v^2) = - (0.1x - 0.8cos(x/0.8)) - 0.8 + 0.5

                          0.5v^2 =  0.8cos(x/0.8) - 0.1x - 0.3

- Evaluate @ x = -1

                          0.5v^2 = 0.8 cos(-1/0.8) + 0.1 -0.3

                          v = sqrt (0.104516)

                          v = +/- 0.323 m/s

- v = v_max when a = 0:

                           -0.1 = sin(x/0.8)

                             x = -0.8*0.1002

                             x = -0.080134 m

- Hence,

                            v^2 = 1.6 cos(-0.080134/0.8) -0.6 -0.2*-0.080134

                            v = sqrt (0.504)

                            v = +/- 1.004 m/s

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The correct answer is "K_c=6.0369 \ MPa\sqrt{m}".

Explanation:

Given:

Maximum load,

P = 50,000 N

Crack length,

a = 3mm

or,

  = 3×10⁻³ m

Diameter,

d = 32 mm

As we know,

⇒  Maximum stress, \sigma=\frac{P}{A}

                                      =\frac{50000}{(\frac{\pi}{4}\times 32^2)}

                                      =62.20 \ N/mm^2

Now,

⇒  Fracture tougness, K_c=Y \sigma\sqrt{\pi a}

On substituting the values, we get

                                           =1\times 62.20\times \sqrt{3.14\times 3\times 10^{-3}}

                                           =6.0369 \ MPa\sqrt{m}
