The local atmospheric pressure is measured with a water barometer. If the water column is measured to be 30 ft, what is the atmo

spheric pressure in atm?

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure in atm=0.885 atm

Explanation:

Given that

Local pressure (h)= 30 ft of water height     ( 1 ft= 0.3048 m)

We know that pressure in given by

  P=ρgh

We know that ρ of water is 1000\dfrac{kg}{m^3}

So pressure

P=1000(9.81)(9.144)

P=89.7026 \dfrac{N}{m^2}

We know that 1000 Pa=0.00986 atm

So P=0.885 atm

The atmospheric pressure in atm=0.885 atm

In the construction of a large reactor pressure vessel, a new steel alloy with a plane strain fracture toughness of 55 MPa-m1/2
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

l=24mm

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Plane strain fracture toughness of T=55 MPa-m1/2

Y value Y=1.0

Stress level of\sigma =200 MPa

Generally the equation for length of a surface crack is mathematically given by

l=\frac{1}{\pi}(\frac{T}{Y*\sigma})^2

l=\frac{1}{3.142}(\frac{55}{1*200})^2

l=0.024m

Therefore

in mm

l=24mm

The electricity generated by wind turbines annually in kilowatt-hours per year is given in a file. The amount of electricity is
Anika [276]

Answer:

Steps:

1. Create a text file that contains blade diameter (in feet), wind velocity (in mph) and the approximate electricity generated for the year

2.  load the data file for example, in matlab, use ('fileame.txt') to load the file

3. create variables from each column of your data

  for example, in matlab,  

     x=t{1}

     y=t{2}

4. plot the wind velocity and electricity generated.

   plot(x, y)

5. Label the individual axis and name the graph title.

    title('Graph of wind velocity vs approximate electricity generated for the year')

     xlabel('wind velocity')

     ylabel('approximate electricity generated for the year')

Nec ________ covers selection of time-delay fuses for motor- overload protection.
Murljashka [212]

Nec Article 430 covers selection of time-delay fuses for motor- overload protection.

<h3>What article in the NEC covers motor overloads?</h3>

Article 430 that is found in  National Electrical Code (NEC) is known to be state as “Motors, Motor Circuits and Controllers.” .

Note that the article tells that it covers areas such as motors, motor branch-circuit as well as feeder conductors, motor branch-circuit and others.

Therefore, Nec Article 430 covers selection of time-delay fuses for motor- overload protection.

Water at atmospheric pressure boils on the surface of a large horizontal copper tube. The heat flux is 90% of the critical value
masya89 [10]

Answer:

The tube surface temperature immediately after installation is 120.4°C and after prolonged service is 110.8°C

Explanation:

The properties of water at 100°C and 1 atm are:

pL = 957.9 kg/m³

pV = 0.596 kg/m³

ΔHL = 2257 kJ/kg

CpL = 4.217 kJ/kg K

uL = 279x10⁻⁶Ns/m²

KL = 0.68 W/m K

σ = 58.9x10³N/m

When the water boils on the surface its heat flux is:

q=0.149h_{fg} \rho _{v} (\frac{\sigma (\rho _{L}-\rho _{v})}{\rho _{v}^{2} }  )^{1/4} =0.149*2257*0.596*(\frac{58.9x10^{-3}*(957.9-0.596) }{0.596^{2} } )^{1/4} =18703.42W/m^{2}

For copper-water, the properties are:

Cfg = 0.0128

The heat flux is:

qn = 0.9 * 18703.42 = 16833.078 W/m²

q_{n} =uK(\frac{g(\rho_{L}-\rho _{v})     }{\sigma })^{1/2} (\frac{c_{pL}*deltaT }{c_{fg}h_{fg}Pr  } \\16833.078=279x10^{-6} *2257x10^{3} (\frac{9.8*(957.9-0.596)}{0.596} )^{1/2} *(\frac{4.127x10^{3}*delta-T }{0.0128*2257x10^{3}*1.76 } )^{3} \\delta-T=20.4

The tube surface temperature immediately after installation is:

Tinst = 100 + 20.4 = 120.4°C

For rough surfaces, Cfg = 0.0068. Using the same equation:

ΔT = 10.8°C

The tube surface temperature after prolonged service is:

Tprolo = 100 + 10.8 = 110.8°C
