Answer:

Rate of corrosion = 24.95 mpy

Rate of corrosion = 0.63 mm/yr

Explanation:

given data

steel sheet area = 150 in²

weight loss = 485 g

density of steel = 7.9 g/cm³

time taken = 1 year

to find out

rate of corrosion in (a) mpy and (b) mm/yr

solution

we get here the rate of corrosion that is express as

rate of corrosion = (k × W) ÷ (D × A × T)     ..................1

here k is constant  and w is total weight lost and t is time taken for loss and A is surface area and D is density of steel

so put her value in equation 1 we get

Rate of corrosion = \frac{534*485*1000}{7.9*150*24hr*365day/yr}

Rate of corrosion = 24.95 mpy

and

Rate of corrosion = \frac{87.6*485*1000}{7.9*150*2.54^2*24hr*365days/yr}

Rate of corrosion = 0.63 mm/yr

A smooth concrete pipe (1.5-ft diameter) carries water from a reservoir to an industrial treatment plant 1 mile away and dischar
Kamila [148]

ANSWER:

Q = 0.17ft3/s

EXPLANATION: since the water runs downhill on a 1:100 slope, that means the flow is laminar.

Using poiseuille equation:

Q = (π × D^4 × ∆P) ÷ (128 × U × ∆X)

Q is the volume flow rate.

π is pie constant value at 3.142

D is the diameter of the pipe

∆P is the pressure drop

U is the viscosity

∆X is the length of the pipe or distance of flow.

Form the question, we are to determine U then Find Q

Therefore;

D = 1.5ft

∆P = 1pa since the minor losses are negligible.

∆X = 1mile = 5280ft.

STEP1: FIND U

Viscosity is a function of the temperature of the liquid. An increase in temperature increases the viscosity of the liquid.

We know that at room temperature, which is 25°C the viscosity of water is 8.9×10^-4pa.s . We can find the viscosity of water at 4°C by cross multiplying.

Therefore;

25°C = 8.9×10^-4pa.s

4°C = U

Cross multiply

U25°C = 4°C × 8.9×10^-4pa.s

U25°C = 0.00356°C.pa.s

Therefore;

U = 0.00356°C.pa.s ÷ 25°C

U = 1.424×10^-4pa.s

Therefore at 4°C the viscosity of water in the pipe is 1.424×10^-4pa.s

STEP2: FIND Q

Imputing the values into poiseuille equation above.

Q = (3.142 × (1.5ft)^4 × 1pa) ÷ (128 × 1.424×10^-4pa.s × 5280ft)

Q = 15.906375pa.ft4 ÷ 96.239616pa.s.ft

Therefore;

Q = 0.16547887ft3/s

Approximately;

Q = 0.17ft3/s

Define factors that can change the performance of a polymer, such are additives
inna [77]

Answer:

 The performance of the polymer is basically change by the various type of factors like shape, tensile strength and color.

The polymer based products are basically influenced by the environmental factors like light, acids or alkalis chemicals, salts and also heat.

The additives is one of the type of chemical polymer which basically include polymer matrix for improving the ability of processing of the polymer. It also helps to enhance the production and requirement of the polymer products in the environment.

A hot air balloon is used as an air-vehicle to carry passengers. It is assumed that this balloon is sealed and has a spherical s
monitta

Answer:

a. \dfrac{D_{1}}{ D_{2}}  =  \left (\dfrac{   \left{D_1}  }{ {D_2}}   \right )^{-3\times n} which is constant therefore, n = constant

b. The temperature at the end of the process is 109.6°C

c. The work done by the balloon boundaries = 10.81 MJ

The work done on the surrounding atmospheric air = 10.6 MJ

Explanation:

p₁ = 100 kPa

T₁ = 27°C

D₁ = 10 m

v₂ = 1.2 × v₁

p ∝ α·D

α = Constant

v_1 = \dfrac{4}{3} \times  \pi \times r^3

\therefore v_1 = \dfrac{4}{3} \times  \pi \times  \left (\dfrac{10}{2}  \right )^3 = 523.6 \ m^3

v₂ = 1.2 × v₁ = 1.2 × 523.6 = 628.32 m³

Therefore, D₂ = 10.63 m

We check the following relation for a polytropic process;

\dfrac{p_{1}}{p_{2}} = \left (\dfrac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}   \right )^{n} = \left (\dfrac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}   \right )^{\dfrac{n}{n-1}}

We have;

\dfrac{\alpha \times D_{1}}{\alpha \times D_{2}} = \left (\dfrac{ \dfrac{4}{3} \times  \pi \times  \left (\dfrac{D_2}{2}  \right )^3}{\dfrac{4}{3} \times  \pi \times  \left (\dfrac{D_1}{2}  \right )^3}   \right )^{n} = \left (\dfrac{   \left{D_2}  ^3}{ {D_1}^3}   \right )^{n}

\dfrac{D_{1}}{ D_{2}} = \left (\dfrac{   \left{D_2}  }{ {D_1}}   \right )^{3\times n} =  \left (\dfrac{   \left{D_1}  }{ {D_2}}   \right )^{-3\times n}

\dfrac{ D_{1}}{ D_{2}} = \left ( 1.2  \right )^{n} = \left (\dfrac{   \left{D_2}  ^3}{ {D_1}^3}   \right )^{n}

log  \left (\dfrac{D_{1}}{ D_{2}}\right )  =  -3\times n \times log\left (\dfrac{   \left{D_1}  }{ {D_2}}   \right )

n = -1/3

Therefore, the relation, pVⁿ = Constant

b. The temperature T₂ is found as follows;

\left (\dfrac{628.32 }{523.6}   \right )^{-\dfrac{1}{3} } = \left (\dfrac{300.15}{T_{2}}   \right )^{\dfrac{-\dfrac{1}{3}}{-\dfrac{1}{3}-1}} = \left (\dfrac{300.15}{T_{2}}   \right )^{\dfrac{1}{4}}

T₂ = 300.15/0.784 = 382.75 K = 109.6°C

c. W_{pdv} = \dfrac{p_1 \times v_1 -p_2 \times v_2 }{n-1}

p_2 = \dfrac{p_{1}}{ \left (\dfrac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}   \right )^{n} } =  \dfrac{100\times 10^3}{ \left (1.2) \right  ^{-\dfrac{1}{3} } }

p₂ =  100000/0.941 = 106.265 kPa

W_{pdv} = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3 \times 523.6 -106.265 \times 10^3  \times 628.32 }{-\dfrac{1}{3} -1} = 10806697.1433 \ J

The work done by the balloon boundaries = 10.81 MJ

Work done against atmospheric pressure, Pₐ, is given by the relation;

Pₐ × (V₂ - V₁) = 1.01×10⁵×(628.32 - 523.6) = 10576695.3 J

The work done on the surrounding atmospheric air = 10.6 MJ

You are recording a friend's 3-minute song with 24 bits per sample at 96 kHz sampling rate for a 5.1 surround sound system (6 ch
djyliett [7]

Answer:

save space = 1.9626 Gibibits

Explanation:

given data

recording song time = 3 minute = 180 seconds

song per sample =  24 bits per sample

frequency = 96 kHz

surround sound system = 5.1

solution

first we get here required space for 24 bits at  96 kHz that is

required space = 24 × 96 × 10³ × 6 × 180

required space = 2.48832 × 10^{9}  bits

as 1 Gib bit = 2^{30} bits

so required space = 2.48832 × 10^{9}  bits ÷  2^{30} bits

required space = 2.3174 Gibibits   ...............1

and

space required to save record 16 bit at 44.1 kHz

space required = 16 × 44.1 × 10³ × 3 × 180

space required = 0.381024 × 10^{9}  bits

space required = 0.381024 × 10^{9}  bits  ÷  2^{30} bits  

space required = 0.3548 Gibibits    ...........2

so

we get here that save space in 16 bit at 44.1 kHz

save space = 2.3174 Gibibit - 0.3548 Gibibits

save space = 1.9626 Gibibits
