Answer: valving the pump discharge to reduce the flow will only result in an increase in the water velocity according to the laws of continuity of flow.

Q = AV = constant.

The pump speed of 150 gpm is, and will remain constant. Valving simply reduces flow area A, which is balanced out by increased velocity V of water through the pipe.

This does not affect the pump speed Q (flow rate) and hence it remains the same.

Air flows through a device such that the stagnation pressure is 0.4 MPa, the stagnation temperature is 400°C, and the velocity i
RoseWind [281]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to temperature stagnation and adiabatic pressure in a system.

The stagnation temperature can be defined as

T_0 = T+\frac{V^2}{2c_p}

Where

T = Static temperature

V = Velocity of Fluid

c_p = Specific Heat

Re-arrange to find the static temperature we have that

T = T_0 - \frac{V^2}{2c_p}

T = 673.15-(\frac{528}{2*1.005})(\frac{1}{1000})

T = 672.88K

Now the pressure of helium by using the Adiabatic pressure temperature is

P = P_0 (\frac{T}{T_0})^{k/(k-1)}

Where,

P_0= Stagnation pressure of the fluid

k = Specific heat ratio

Replacing we have that

P = 0.4 (\frac{672.88}{673.15})^{1.4/(1.4-1)}

P = 0.399Mpa

Therefore the static temperature of air at given conditions is 72.88K and the static pressure is 0.399Mpa

<em>Note: I took the exactly temperature of 400 ° C the equivalent of 673.15K. The approach given in the 600K statement could be inaccurate.</em>

Three masses are attached to a uniform meter stick, as shown in Figure 12.9. The mass of the meter
sp2606 [1]

At equilibrium, the sum of clockwise and anticlockwise moments about a point is zero

The mass of that balances the system is \underline {316.\overline 6} kg

The normal reaction force at the fulcrum is <u>5,804.25 N</u>

Rason:

The mass of the stick = 150.0 g

Mass m₁ on the left = 50.0 g, location = 30 cm to the left of m₂

Mass m₂ on the left = 75.0 g, location = 40 cm to the left of the fulcrum

Mass m₃ on the right of the fulcrum. location = 30 cm to the right of the fulcrum

Required:

To find the mass of m₃

Solution:

Taking moment about the fulcrum, we have;

50 × (30 + 40) + 75 × (40) + 150 × 20 = m₃ × 30

9,500 = m₃×30

m_3 = \dfrac{9,500}{30} = 316. \overline 6

The mass of that balances the system when it is attached at the right end of the stick, m₃ = 316.\overline 6 kg

Normal reaction at the fulcrum = (50 + 75 + 150 +  316.\overline 6) × 9.81 = 5804.25

The normal reaction at the fulcrum is 5,804.25 N

A 10 kg mass is lifted 5 m with an upward acceleration of 2 m/s^2 (Note: a process diagram is not required for this problem) a)
ohaa [14]

Answer:

a) F=20 [kgm/s^2]=20 [N]

b) W=100[kgm^2/s^2]=100[J]

c) P=44,84[kgm^2/s^3]=44,84[W]

d) W=2,778*10^-5 [kilowatt-hours]

Explanation:

a) Newton's Second Law states that <em>the acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.</em>

F=ma

where:

  • F, the net force [N]
  • m, mass of the object [kg]
  • a, acceleration [m/s^2]

If a 10 kg mass is lifted with an upward acceleration of 2 m/s^2, the upward force necessary is:

F=10 [kg]*2[m/s^2]=20 [kgm/s^2]=20 [N]

b) The amount of energy required to lift the box equals the magnitud of work done by the lifting force:

W=FdcosФ

where:

  • W, work executed [J]
  • F, net force [N]
  • d, displacement produced by the force [m]
  • Ф, angle between the net force and displacemt produced

Thus, the energy required to lift 5 m the mass is:

W=20[N]*5[m]cos0°=100[N.m]=100[kgm^2/s^2]=100[J]

c) To find the average power we use the formula:

P=W/t

where,

  • P, average power [W]
  • W, work executed [J]
  • t, elapsed time [s]

Thus, if the process takes 2,23 seconds the average power is:

P=100[J]/2,23[s]=44,84[J/s]=44,84[kgm^2/s^3]=44,84[W]

d) As 1 kilowatt-hours=3,6*10^6 J, then:

100 [J]*1 [kilowatt-hour]/ 3,6*10^6 [J]=2,778*10^-5 [kilowatt-hours]
