Which of the following would increase friction?

1 answer:

5 0

B. Sand.

Sand would definitely increase friction because of the roughness of it surface. When its surface comes with another rough surface it would tend to increase friction. All other options given tend to reduce friction one way or the other.

Your boss tells you that water at 68 F is flowing in a cooling tower loop at a rate of 600 gpm, in an 8-inch inside diameter pip

avanturin [10]

Explanation:

The volumetric flow rate of water will be as follows.

q = $600 gpm \times \frac{0.000063 m^{3} s^{-1}}{1 gpm}$

= 0.0378 $m^{3}/s
$

Diameter = $8 in \times \frac{0.0254 m}{1 in}$

= 0.2032 m

Relation between area and diameter is as follows.

A = $\frac{\pi}{4} \times D^{2}$

= $\frac{3.14}{4} \times (0.2032 m)^{2}$

= 0.785 x 0.2032 x 0.2032

= 0.0324 $m^{2}$

Also, q = A × V

or, V = $\frac{q}{A}$

= $\frac{0.0378 m^{3}/s}{0.0324 m^{2}}$

= 1.166 m/s

As, viscosity of water = 1 cP = $10^{-3}$ Pa-s

Density of water = 1000 $kg/m^{3}$

Therefore, we will calculate Reynolds number as follows.

Reynolds number = $\frac{D \times V \times density}{viscosity}$

= $\frac{0.2032 m \times 1.166 m/s \times 1000}{10^{-3}}$

= 236931.2

Hence, the flow will be turbulent in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that the Reynolds number is 236931.2 and flow is turbulent.

Choose the molecular compound among the substances listed below.

agasfer [191]

Answer: Among the listed substances $XeCl_{4}$ is the molecular compound.

Explanation:

A chemical compound formed by the chemical combination of two or more non-metals is called a molecular compound or covalent compound.

For example, Xe and Cl are non-metals. The compound formed by them is $XeCl_{4}$ which is a molecular compound.

A molecular compound is formed by sharing of atoms between the combining atoms.

Whereas NaF, $MnCl_{2}$ and CaO are all ionic compounds as they are formed by chemical combination of a metal and a non-metal.

Thus, we can conclude that among the listed substances $XeCl_{4}$ is the molecular compound.

Calculate the percent mass of sugar in mountain dew: The total mass of the mountain dew solution is 300g and there are 231 g of

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

c. 77 %

Explanation:

Percent mass (% mass) of solute = mass of solute/mass of solution × 100

According to this question, a mountain dew solution weighing 300grams contains 231 g of sugar. This means that:

% mass of sugar = 231g/300g × 100

% mass of sugar = 0.77 × 100

% mass of sugar = 77%.
