Correct Answers is A.
The machines gives us some mechanical advantage. This means the mechanical average makes the work output greater than the work input
Simple most example is a lever. The force applied is smaller and the output work is larger as compared to input.
Option B cannot be true, as there must be a force to get some work done.
Option C and D are inverse of what a machine is designed for. A small force can be exerted through a large distance to have a large force exerted through a small distance. Common Example of this principle is a screw opener.
Its good for a scientist to be skeptical because they dont willingly accept new ideas without thoroughly going over the research themselves and attempting to disprove a theory. skeptical scientists often reveal new information through doing their own examinations of a concept, which is why they are valuable scientists
Set up the problem with the conversion rates as fractions where when you multiply the units cancel out leaving the desired units behind.
Answer:
The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.
The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass flow rate = 2 kg/s
Diameter of inlet pipe = 5.2 cm
Fifteen percent of the flow leaves through location (2) and the remainder leaves at (3)
The mass flow rate is

We need to calculate the mass flow rate at reach exit
Using formula of mass



We need to calculate the inlet velocity
Using formula of velocity

Put the value into the formula


Hence, The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.
The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.
Good luck with solving this
