Answer:

The velocity at R/2 (midway between the wall surface and the centerline) is given by (3/4)(Vmax) provided that Vmax is the maximum velocity in the tube.

Explanation:

Starting from the shell momentum balance equation, it can be proved that the velocity profile for fully developedblaminar low in a circular pipe of internal radius R and a radial axis starting from the centre of the pipe at r=0 to r=R is given as

v = (ΔPR²/4μL) [1 - (r²/R²)]

where v = fluid velocity at any point in the radial direction

ΔP = Pressure drop across the pipe

μ = fluid viscosity

L = pipe length

But the maximum velocity of the fluid occurs at the middle of the pipe when r=0

Hence, maximum veloxity is

v(max) = (ΔPR²/4μL)

So, velocity at any point in the radial direction is

v = v(max) [1 - (r²/R²)]

At the point r = (R/2)

r² = (R²/4)

(r²/R²) = r² ÷ R² = (R²/4) ÷ (R²) = (1/4)

So,

1 - (r²/R²) = 1 - (1/4) = (3/4)

Hence, v at r = (R/2) is given as

v = v(max) × (3/4)

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

Ammonia gas a hazardous gas to our health, when we are exposed to it for a long time. The gas is lighter than air, that means it's high concentration may not be noticed at the point of leakage, because it flows with the wind direction. Ammonia gas detector are used to determine the concentration of the gas at a particular place. We can use the dispersion modelling software program to know the exact position, where we can place the gas detector, which would be where evacuation is needed.

During evacuation, when the concentration of the gas has increased, a self-contained breathing apparatus should be used for breathing, and an encapsulated suit should be worn to prevent ammonia from reacting with our sweat or any other chemical burn. A mechanic ventilation will also be needed in the place of evacuation, so that the ammonia concentration in that area can be dispersed.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

  1. def median(l):
  2.    if(len(l) == 0):
  3.       return 0
  4.    else:
  5.        l.sort()
  6.        if(len(l)%2 == 0):
  7.            index = int(len(l)/2)
  8.            mid = (l[index-1] + l[index]) / 2
  9.        else:
  10.            mid = l[len(l)//2]  
  11.        return mid  
  12. def mode(l):
  13.    if(len(l)==0):
  14.        return 0
  15.    mode = max(set(l), key=l.count)
  16.    return mode  
  17. def mean(l):
  18.    if(len(l)==0):
  19.        return 0
  20.    sum = 0
  21.    for x in l:
  22.        sum += x
  23.    mean = sum / len(l)
  24.    return mean
  25. lst = [5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 12, 13, 15, 25, 30, 45, 61]
  26. print(mean(lst))
  27. print(median(lst))
  28. print(mode(lst))

Explanation:

Firstly, we create a median function (Line 1). This function will check if the the length of list is zero and also if it is an even number. If the length is zero (empty list), it return zero (Line 2-3). If it is an even number, it will calculate the median by summing up two middle index values and divide them by two (Line 6-8). Or if the length is an odd, it will simply take the middle index value and return it as output (Line 9-10).

In mode function, after checking the length of list, we use the max function to estimate the maximum count of the item in list (Line 17) and use it as mode.

In mean function,  after checking the length of list,  we create a sum variable and then use a loop to add the item of list to sum (Line 23-25). After the loop, divide sum by the length of list to get the mean (Line 26).

In the main program, we test the three functions using a sample list and we shall get

Answer: a) 135642 b) 146253

Explanation:

A)

1- the bankers algorithm tests for safety by simulating the allocation for predetermined maximum possible amounts of all resources, as stated this has the greatest degree of concurrency.

3- reserving all resources in advance helps would happen most likely if the algorithm has been used.

5- Resource ordering comes first before detection of any deadlock

6- Thread action would be rolled back much easily of Resource ordering precedes.

4- restart thread and release all resources if thread needs to wait, this should surely happen before killing the thread

2- only option practicable after thread has been killed.

Bii) ; No. Even if deadlock happens rapidly, the safest sequence have been decided already.
