Answer:

The force induced on the aircraft is 2.60 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Power transmitted, P_{t} = 8 kW = 8000 W

Now, the force, F is given by:

P_{t} = Force(F)\times velocity(v) = Fv               (1)

where

v = velocity

Now,

For a geo-stationary satellite, the centripetal force, F_{c} is provided by the gravitational force, F_{G}:

F_{c} = F_{G}

\frac{mv^{2}}{R} = \frac{GM_{e}m{R^{2}}

Thus from the above, velocity comes out to be:

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{R}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{- 11}\times 5.979\times 10^{24}}{42166\times 10^{3}}} = 3075.36 m/ s

where

R = R_{e} + H

R = \sqrt{GM_{e}(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}}

where

G = Gravitational constant

T = Time period of rotation of Earth

R is calculated as 42166 km

Now, from eqn (1):

8000 = F\times 3075.36

F = 2.60 N

A 400-m^3 storage tank is being constructed to hold LNG, liquefied natural gas, which may be assumed to be essentially pure meth
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

mass of LNG: 129501.3388 kg

quality: 0.005048662

Explanation:

Volume occupied by liquid:

400 m^3*0.9 = 360 m^3

Volume occupied by vapor

400 m^3*0.1 = 40 m^3  

A figured with thermodynamic properties of saturated methane is attached. Notice that a liquid-gas mixture is present

For liquid phase specific volume (vf) at 150 K is 0.002794 m^3/kg and for vapor phase specific volume (vg) is 0.06118 m^3/kg

From specific volume definition:

vf = liquid volume/liquid mass

liquid mass = liquid volume/vf

liquid mass = 360 m^3/0.002794 m^3/kg

liquid mass = 128847.5304 kg

vg = vapor volume/vapor mass

vapor mass = liquid volume/vg

vapor mass = 40 m^3/0.06118 m^3/kg

vapor mass = 653.8084341 kg

total mass = 128847.5304 kg + 653.8084341 kg = 129501.3388 kg

Quality is defined as the ratio between vapor mass and total mass

quality =  653.8084341 kg/129501.3388 kg = 0.005048662

Water flows through a horizontal plastic pipe with a diameter of 0.15 m at a velocity of 15 cm/s. Determine the pressure drop pe
Sonja [21]

Answer:0.1898 Pa/m

Explanation:

Given data

Diameter of Pipe\left ( D\right )=0.15m

Velocity of water in pipe\left ( V\right )=15cm/s

We know viscosity of water is\left (\mu\right )=8.90\times10^{-4}pa-s

Pressure drop is given by hagen poiseuille equation

\Delta P=\frac{128\mu \L Q}{\pi D^4}

We have asked pressure Drop per unit length i.e.

\frac{\Delta P}{L} =\frac{128\mu \ Q}{\pi D^4}

Substituting Values

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=\frac{128\times8.90\times10^{-4}\times\pi \times\left ( 0.15^{3}\right )}{\pi\times 4 \times\left ( 0.15^{2}\right )}

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=0.1898 Pa/m

Tamiku [17]

Technician B is right say that hard water potting i usually jut a Surface problem that can be wahed off.

What do you mean by Hard water?

The amount of dissolved calcium and magnesium in the water determines its hardness. Calcium and magnesium are the main dissolved minerals in hard water. The last time you washed your hands, you might have actually felt the effects of hard water.

What do you mean by acid rain?

Any type of precipitation that contains acidic elements, such as sulfuric or nitric acid, that falls to the ground from the atmosphere in wet or dry forms is referred to as acid rain, also known as acid deposition. Rain, snow, fog, hail, and even acidic dust can fall under this category.

Some plants are sensitive to excessive moisture around their root zone, so it may be necessary to increase drainage when growing plants in pots. Additionally, standing water at the bottom of the pot can cause root rot.

Many university agriculture extension agencies have thoroughly debunked the old garden myth that adding rocks to the bottom of a pot will increase drainage.
