A driver is traveling at 52 mi/h on a wet road. an object is spotted on the road 415 ft ahead and the driver is able to come to

a stop just before hitting the object. assuming standard perception/ reaction time and practical stopping distance, determine the grade of the road.

Answer:

G = 0.424

Explanation:

Ds = ( 0.278tr * V ) + (0.278 * V²)/ ( 19.6* ( f ± G))

Where Ds = stopping sight distance = 415miles = 126.5m

G = absolute grade road

V = velocity of vehicle = 52miles/hr

f = friction = 0 because the road is wet

tr = standard perception / reaction time = 2.5s

So therefore:

Substituting to get G

We have

2479.4G = 705.6G + 751.72

1773.8G = 751.72

G = 751.72/1773.8

G = 0.424

belka [17]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Lets first consider the term Isentropic efficiency. The isentropic efficiency of a compressor or pump is defined as the ratio of the work input to an isentropic process, to the work input to the actual process between the same inlet and exit pressures. IN practice, compressors are intentionally cooled to minimize the work input.

Please kindly check attachment for the step by step solution of the given problem.

Refrigerant-134a enters a 28-cm-diameter pipe steadily at 200 kPa and 20°C with a velocity of 5 m/s. The refrigerant gains heat
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

V = 0.30787 m³/s

m = 2.6963 kg/s

v2 =  0.3705 m³/s

v2 = 6.017 m/s

Explanation:

given data

diameter = 28 cm

steadily =200 kPa

temperature = 20°C

velocity = 5 m/s

solution

we know mass flow rate is

m = ρ A v

floe rate V = Av

m = ρ V

flow rate = V = \frac{m}{\rho}

V = Av = \frac{\pi}{4} * d^2 * v1

V = \frac{\pi}{4} * 0.28^2 * 5

V = 0.30787 m³/s

and

mass flow rate of the refrigerant is

m = ρ A v

m = ρ V

m = \frac{V}{v} = \frac{0.30787}{0.11418}

m = 2.6963 kg/s

and

velocity and volume flow rate at exit

velocity = mass × v

v2 = 2.6963 × 0.13741 = 0.3705 m³/s

and

v2 = A2×v2

v2 = \frac{v2}{A2}

v2 = \frac{0.3705}{\frac{\pi}{4} * 0.28^2}

v2 = 6.017 m/s
