Question

Determine the average water exit velocity

Answer:

53.05 m/s

Explanation:

Given information

Volume flow rate, $Q=16 m^{3}/min$

Diameter d= 8cm= 0.08 m

Assumptions

The flow is jet flow hence momentum-flux correction factor is unity
Gravitational force is not considered
The flow is steady, frictionless and incompressible
Water is discharged to the atmosphere hence pressure is ignored

We know that Q=AV and making v the subject then

$V=\frac {Q}{A}$ where V is the exit velocity and A is area

Area, $A=\frac {\pi d^{2}{4}$ where d is the diameter

By substitution

$V=\frac {16\times 4}{\pi 0.08^{2}}=3183.098862 m/min$

To convert v to m/s from m/s, we simply divide it by 60 hence

$V=\frac {3183.098862 m/min}{60 s}=53.0516477 m/s\approx 53.05 m/s$

To compute the energy used by a motor, multiply the power that it draws by the time of operation. Con- sider a motor that draws

ehidna [41]

Answer:

E=52000Hp.h

E=38724920Wh

E=1.028x10^11 ftlb

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must multiply the engine power by the time factor expressed in h / year, to find this value you must perform the conventional unit conversion procedure.

Finally, when you have the result Hp h / year you convert it to Ftlb and Wh

$E=(12.5hp)(\frac{16h}{day} )(\frac{5 days}{week} )(\frac{52week}{year} )\\$

E=52000Hp.h

$E=52000Hp.h(\frac{744.71Wh}{Hp.h} )\\$

E=38724920Wh

$E=52000Hph(\frac{1977378.4 ft lb}{1Hph}$

E=1.028x10^11 ftlb

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.

A copper-nickel alloy of composition 60 wt% Ni-40 wt% Cu is slowly heated from a temperature of 1250°C (2280 °F). (a) At what te

makkiz [27]

Answer:

a. The very first liquid process, when heated from 1250 degree Celsius, is expected to form at the temperature by which the vertical line crosses the phase boundary (a -(a + L)) which is about 1310 degree Celsius. 

b. The structure of that first liquid is identified by the intersection with ((a+ L)-L) phase boundary; 47wt %of Ni is of a tie line formed across the (a+ L) phase area at 1310 degrees.

c. To find the alloy's full melting, it is determined that the intersection of the same vertical line at 60 wt percent Ni with (a -(a+L)) phase boundary is around 1350 degrees.

c. The structure of the last remaining solid before full melting correlates to the intersection with the phase boundary (a -(a + L), of the tie line built at 1350 degrees across the (a + L) phase area, being 72wt % of Ni.
