yanalaym [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Re=\dfrac{\rho\ v\ l}{\mu }

Explanation:

Reynolds number:

  Reynolds number describe the type of flow.If Reynolds number is too high then flow is called turbulent flow and Reynolds is  low then flow is called laminar flow .

Reynolds number is a dimensionless number.Reynolds number given is the ratio of inertia force to the viscous force.

Re=\dfrac{F_i}{F_v}

For plate can be given as

Re=\dfrac{\rho\ v\ l}{\mu }

Where  ρ is the density of fluid , v is the average velocity of fluid and μ is the dynamic viscosity of fluid.

Flow on plate is a external flow .The values of Reynolds number for different flow given as

Reynolds\ number\is \ >\ 5 \times 10 ^5\ then\ flow\ will\ be\ turbulent.

Reynolds\ number\is \

A. A 3-kg plastic tank that has a volume of 0.2 m^3 is lled with liquid water. Assuming the density of water is 1000 kg=m^3, det
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

a) The weight of the combined system is the sum of the weight of the water and the weight of the tank

m_{water}=V_{tank}.\rho_{wtaer}\\\\m_{water}=0.2m^3*1000kg/m^3\\\\m_{water}=200 \ kg\\\\m_{total} = m_{water}+m_{tank}\\\\But\ m_{tank}=3kg,therefore:\\\\m_{total} =200kg+3kg\\\\m_{total} =203\ kg\\\\weight_{total}=m_{total}g\\\\weight_{total}=203kg*9.81m/s^2\\\\weight_{total}=1991.43\ N

b) Since the weight of a system can be divided into smaller portions, hence weight is an extensive property.

c) When analyzing the acceleration of gases as they flow through a nozzle, the geometry of the nozzle which is an open system can be chosen as our system.

d) Given that:

\rho_{water}=1000kg/m^3\\\\1kg/m^3=0.062428lb/ft^3\\\\1000kg/m^3=1000kg/m^3*\frac{0.062428lb/ft^3}{kg/m^3}=62.43lb/ft^3\\ \\\rho=SG*\rho_{water}=1.03*62.43=64.272lb/ft^3\\\\P=P_{atm}+\rho g H\\\\P=14.7\ psia+64.272\ lb/ft^3*32.2\ ft/s^2*175\ ft*\frac{1\ ft^2}{12^2\ in^2}*\frac{1\ lbf}{32.2\ lbm.ft/s^2}  \\\\P=92.8\ psia

6.3.9 A coin was tossed n = 1000 times, and the proportion of heads observed was
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

51 / 100 = 510 / 1000

Chance of getting a head is 1 / 2 of total throws

= 1 / 2 × 1000

= 500 is the probability

and the number of heads was just 10 more the the probability...if the was a greater gap, there would be evidence to say the coin is unfair

You are testing a new jet engine in a test cell at sea level conditions. You measure the mass flow through the engine and find i
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

43248 newtons.

Explanation:

Force = mass x accelerations and units of force are newtons which are given in the question.

here mass = 125 of air and 2.2 of fuel, total = 125+2.2=127.5kg/s  and the velocity of the exhaust is 340m/s.

force = 340m/s * 127.5kg/s = 43248 newtons technically this is wrong (observe units) but i will expalin how i have taken acceleration as a velocity here and mass/unit time as simply mass.

see force is mass times acceleration or deceleration, here our velocity is not changing therefore it is constant 340m/s but if it were to change and become 0 in one second then there would be -340m/s^2 (note the units ) of deceleration and there would be force associated with it and that force is what i have calculated here. similarly there would be mass in flow rate of mass per second, which is also in that one second of time.

let's calculate error.

error = (actual-calculated)/actual. = (43248-60000)/43248= -38.734% less is ofcourse greater than 2%.

So the load cell is not reading correct to within 2% and it should read 43248newtons.
