According to fire regulations in a town, the pressure drop in a commercial steel, horizontal pipe must not exceed 2.0 psi per 25

0 ft of pipe for flow rates up to 500 gal/min. If the water temperature is never below 50˚F, what diameter pipe is needed?

Answer:

6.37 inch

Explanation:

Thinking process:

We need to know the flow rate of the fluid through the cross sectional pipe. Let this rate be denoted by Q.

To determine the pressure drop in the pipe:

Using the Bernoulli equation for mass conservation:

\frac{P1}{\rho } + \frac{v_{2} }{2g} +z_{1}  = \frac{P2}{\rho } + \frac{v2^{2} }{2g} + z_{2} + f\frac{l}{D} \frac{v^{2} }{2g}

thus

\frac{P1-P2}{\rho }  = f\frac{l}{D} \frac{v^{2} }{2g}

The largest pressure drop (P1-P2) will occur with the largest f, which occurs with the smallest Reynolds number, Re or the largest V.

Since the viscosity of the water increases with temperature decrease, we consider coldest case at T = 50⁰F

from the tables

Re= 2.01 × 10⁵

Hence, f = 0.018

Therefore, pressure drop, (P1-P2)/p = 2.70 ft

This occurs at ae presure change of 1.17 psi

Correlating with the chart, we find that the diameter will be D= 0.513

                                                                                                      = <u>6.37 in Ans</u>

MrMuchimi

Answer:

#include <iostream>

#include <iomanip>

#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main() {

   string name[5];  

   int age[5];  

   int i,j;  

   for ( i = 0; i<=4; i++ ) {  

       cout << "Please enter student's name:";  

       cin >> name[i];  

       cout << "Please enter student's age:";  

       cin >> age[i];          

   }  

for (i=0;i<=4;i++){

   cout<<"Age of  "<< name[i]<<"  is  "<<age[i]<<endl;  

}

}

Output of above program is displayed in figure attached.

Initialize the tuple team_names with the strings 'Rockets', 'Raptors', 'Warriors', and 'Celtics' (The top-4 2018 NBA teams at th
Drupady [299]

Answer:

#Initialise a tuple

team_names = ('Rockets','Raptors','Warriors','Celtics')

print(team_names[0])

print(team_names[1])

print(team_names[2])

print(team_names[3])

Explanation:

The Python code illustrates or printed out the tuple team names at the end of a season.

The code displayed is a function that will display these teams as an output from the program.

What issues does society try to forget in order to not have to deal with them ?
velikii [3]

Answer: Homelessness, Drug addiction, Mental Illness, Climate change.

Explanation:

Society would rather be ignorant to/ ignore all of these realities so they do not have to stop specific behaviors or actually acknowledge other people and help. Sometimes people are so stressed out about their own lives, they can not bare another persons issues. People are ignorant to climate change because correcting it requires massive changes and society is selfish and unwilling to change.

List two things that technological systems have in common.​
Sphinxa [80]

They all share the way that they are fundamentally designed: if they are quite complex, they will share the same basic logic foundations, like the way that the programming languages work. They also all share the method of construction and common and fundamental electronic components, like resistors, capacitors and transistors. As we humans design them, they make logical sense to at least someone, and probably only discounting the internet, you can probably draw logic diagrams and whatever to represent how they work.

Because they are designed by Humans, in a way they all mimic how our brains and society work. Also, as yet there are no truly intelligent technological systems, and are only able to react to a situation how they have been programmed to do so.
