Answer:

The pressure loss in the pipe is 7.792 psig

Explanation:

Given;

flow rate Q = 130 scfm

length of pipeline =170ft

atmospheric pressure = 14.7 psia

pressure in pipe = 105 psig, to psia = 105 + 14.7 = 119.7 psia

Compression ratio (CR) = pressure in pipe/atmospheric pressure

Compression ratio (CR) = 119.7/14.7 = 8.143

Pressure loss in the pipe can be calculated as follows:

P_L=\frac{0.1025LQ^2}{3600*CR*d^{5.31}}

from schedule table, 1-in schedule 40 pipe has a diameter d.

d^{5.31} = 1.2892

Substituting these values, pressure loss in the pipe becomes

P_L=\frac{0.1025LQ^2}{3600*CR*d^{5.31}} = \frac{0.1025*170*(130)^2}{3600*8.143*1.2892} = 7.792 psig = 22.492 psi

Therefore, the pressure loss in the pipe is 7.792 psig

Consider a 100 g object dropped from a height of 1 m. Assuming no air friction (drag), when will the object hit the ground and a
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

speed and time are Vf = 4.43 m/s and  t = 0.45 s

Explanation:

This is a problem of free fall, we have the equations of kinematics

      Vf² = Vo² + 2g x

As the object is released the initial velocity is zero, let's look at the final velocity with the equation

      Vf = √( 2 g X)

      Vf = √(2 9.8  1)

      Vf = 4.43 m/s

This is the speed with which it reaches the ground

 

Having the final speed we can find the time

      Vf = Vo + g t

       t = Vf / g

       t = 4.43 / 9.8

       t = 0.45 s

This is the time of fall of the body to touch the ground
