The clepsydra, or water clock, was a device that the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, and Chinese used to measure the passage

of time by observing the change in the height of water that was permitted to flow out of a small hole in the bottom of a container or tank.

Suppose a tank is made of glass and has the shape of a right-circular cylinder of radius 1 ft. Assume that h(0) = 2 ft corresponds to water filled to the top of the tank, a hole in the bottom is circular with radius in., g = 32 ft/s2, and c = 0.6. Use the differential equation in Problem 12 to find the height h(t) of the water.

Answer:

Height of the water = √(128)/147456 ft

Explanation:

Given

Radius, r = 1 ft

Height, h = 2 ft

Radius of hole = 1/32in

Acceleration of gravity, g = 32ft/s²

c = 0.6

Area of the hold = πr²

A = π(1/32)² ---- Convert to feet

A = π(1/32 * 1/12)²

A = π/147456 ft²

Area of water = πr²

A = π 1²

A = π

The differential equation is;

dh/dt = -A1/A2 √2gh where A1 = Area of the hole and A2 = Area of water

A1 = π/147456, A2 = π

dh/dt = (π/147456)/π √(2*32*2)

dh/dt = 1/147456 * √128

dh/dt = √128/147456 ft

Height of the water = √(128)/147456 ft

mart [117]

Answer:

V=33.66 m/s

Re=448.8\times 10^6

Re>4000, The flow is turbulent flow.

Explanation:

Given that

Pressure difference  = 50 mm of Hg

We know that density of Hg=136000Kg/m^3

ΔP= 13.6 x 1000 x 0.05 Pa

ΔP=680 Pa

Diameter of tunnel = 200 mm

Property of air at 25°C

ρ=1.2Kg/m^3

Dynamic viscosity

\mu =1.8\times 10^{-8}\ Pa.s

Velocity of fluid given as

V=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\Delta P}{\rho_{air}}}

V=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 680}{1.2}}

V=33.66 m/s

Reynolds number

Re=\dfrac{\rho _{air}Vd}{\mu }

Re=\dfrac{1.2\times 33.66\times 0.2}{1.8\times 10^{-8}}

Re=448.8\times 10^6

Re>4000,So the flow is turbulent flow.

Choose the options below that are true for the entropy of a substance. Select all that apply: Heavier atoms possess greater entr
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The true statements are statements 1 and 4.

Explanation:

1. Heavier atoms possess greater entropy at a given temperature than lighter atoms- True.

Concerning atomic substances, heavier atoms possess greater entropy at a given temperature than lighter atoms, which is a result of the relation between a particle's mass and the spacing of quantized translational energy levels.

2. The weight of an atom has no effect on entropy - False.

The entropy of a substance increases with its molecular weight, complexity, and with temperature.

3. Molecules with greater numbers of atoms are associated with lower entropy - False.

Any chemical reaction that increases the number of molecules also increases entropy as a chemical reaction that increases the number of molecules would be a reaction that pours energy into a system.

4. The entropy of a substance is influenced by the structure of the particles that comprise the substance - True.

The structure of the particles (atoms or molecules) in a substance influences its entropy.

For molecules, greater numbers of atoms (regardless of their masses) increase how the molecules can vibrate and thus the number of possible microstates and the system entropy.
