The basic barometer can be used to measure the height of a building. If the barometric readings at the top and the bottom of a b

uilding are 675 and 695 mm Hg, respectively, determine the height of the building in m. Take the densities of air and mercury to be 1.18 kg/m3 and 13,600 kg/m3.

Answer:

230.51 m

Explanation:

Pb = 695 mmHg

Pt = 675 mmHg

Pb - Pt = 20 mmHg

Calculate dP:

dP = p * g * H = (13600)*(9.81)*(20/1000) = 2668.320 Pa

Calculate Height of building as dP is same for any medium of liquid

dP = p*g*H = 2668.320

H = 2668.32 / (1.18 * 9.81) = 230.51 m

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The answer is "-121\  \frac{KJ}{Kg}".

Explanation:

Please find the correct question in the attachment file.

using formula:

\to W=-P_1V_1+P_2V_2 \\\\When \\\\\to W= \frac{P_1V_1-P_2V_2}{n-1}\ \   or \ \  \frac{RT_1 -RT_2}{n-1}\\\\

W =\frac{R(T_1 -T_2)}{n-1}\\\\

    =\frac{0.287(25 -237)}{1.5-1}\\\\=\frac{0.287(-212)}{0.5}\\\\=\frac{-60.844}{0.5}\\\\=-121.688 \frac{KJ}{Kg}\\\\=-121 \frac{KJ}{Kg}\\\\

. Using the Newton Raphson method, determine the uniform flow depth in a trapezoidal channel with a bottom width of 3.0 m and si
Over [174]

Answer:

y  ≈ 2.5

Explanation:

Given data:

bottom width is 3 m

side slope is 1:2

discharge is 10 m^3/s

slope is 0.004

manning roughness coefficient is 0.015

manning equation is written as

v =1/n R^{2/3} s^{1/2}

where R is hydraulic radius

S = bed slope

Q = Av =A 1/n R^{2/3} s^{1/2}

A = 1/2 \times (B+B+4y) \times y =(B+2y) y

R =\frac{A}{P}

P is perimeter =  (B+2\sqrt{5} y)

R =\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}

Q = (2+2y) y) \times 1/0.015 [\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}]^{2/3} 0.004^{1/2}

solving for y100 =(2+2y) y) \times (1/0.015) [\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}]^{2/3} \times 0.004^{1/2}

solving for y value by using iteration method ,we get

y  ≈ 2.5
