Two sections, A and B, are 0.5 km apart along a 0.05 m diameter rough concrete pipe. A is 115 m higher than B, the water tempera

ture is 4 °C, and the pressure heads measured at A and B are 21.7 m and 76.1 m, respectively. Assume minor losses are negligible. Determine the flow rate through the pipe.

Answer:

Q = 178.41 m^3 / s

Explanation:

Given:

- Length of the pipe L = 0.5 km

- Diameter D = 0.05 m

- Pressure head at point A (Pa / γ )= 21.7 m

- Pressure head @ point B (Pb / γ )= 76.1 m

- Elevation head Za = 115 m

- Elevation head Zb = 0 m

- Minor Losses = 0 m

- Major Losses = f*L*V^2 / 2*D*g = (500/2*0.05*9.81) *f*V^2 = 509.684*f*V^2

- Roughness e = 2.5 mm

- Dynamic viscosity of water u = 8.9*10^-4 Pa-s

- Density of water p = 997 kg/m^3

Find:

Flow Rate Q ?

Solution:

- We will use the Head Balance as derived from Energy Balance:

(Pa / γ ) - (Pb / γ ) + (Va^2 - Vb^2) / 2*g + (Za - Zb) = Major Losses

- Velocity at cross section A and B: Va = Vb m/s. Hence,

                   21.7 - 76.1 + 0 + 115-0 = 509.684*f*V^2

                              f*V^2 = 0.18897199

- Correction factor f which is a function of e / D = 0.05, and Reynold's number. In such cases we will guess a value of f and perform iterations as follows:

- Guess: f_o = 0.072 (Moody's Chart @ e / D = 0.05 and most turbulent function).

V_o = sqrt(0.18897199 / 0.072) = 1.28504 m/s

Re_o = p*V_o*D / u =  997*1.28504*0.05 / 8.9*10^-4 = 71976.6

1st iteration

f_1 = g (Re_o , e/d) = 0.0718702 (Moody's Chart)

V_1 = sqrt(0.18897199 / 0.0718702) = 1.621528 m/s

Re_1 = p*V_1*D / u =  997*1.621528*0.05 / 8.9*10^-4 = 90823.81698

2nd iteration

f_2 = g (Re_1 , e/d) = 0.0718041 (Moody's Chart)

V_2 = sqrt(0.18897199 / 0.0718041) = 1.662273585 m/s

Re_2 = p*V_2*D / u =  997*1.662273585*0.05 / 8.9*10^-4 = 90865.54854

3rd iteration

f_3 = g (Re_2 , e/d) = 0.0718040  (Moody's Chart)

V_3 = sqrt(0.18897199 / 0.0718040) = 1.622274714 m/s

Re_3 = p*V_3*D / u =  997*1.622274714*0.05 / 8.9*10^-4 = 90865.61182

- V converges to 1.6222 m /s and any further iterations will be meaningless, so we will stop at 3rd iteration. Hence, the required velocity will be used to calculate the Flow rate Q:

Q =  pi*V*D^2/4 = pi*1.6222*0.05^2 / 4

Q = 178.41 m^3 / s

A bar having a length of 5 in. and cross-sectional area of 0. 7 in.2 is subjected to an axial force of 8000 lb. If the bar stret
andrew11 [14]

The modulus of elasticity is 28.6 X 10³ ksi

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given -

Length, l = 5in

Force, P = 8000lb

Area, A = 0.7in²

δ = 0.002in

Modulus of elasticity, E = ?

We know,

Modulus of elasticity, E = σ / ε

Where,

σ is normal stress

ε is normal strain

Normal stress can be calculated as:

σ = P/A

Where,

P is the force applied

A is the area of cross-section

By plugging in the values, we get

σ = \frac{8000 X 10^-^3}{0.7}

σ = 11.43ksi

To calculate the normal strain we use the formula,

ε = δ / L

By plugging in the values we get,

ε = \frac{0.002}{5}

ε = 0.0004 in/in

Therefore, modulus of elasticity would be:

E = \frac{11.43}{0.004} \\\\E = 28.6 X 10^3 ksi

Thus, modulus of elasticity is 28.6 X 10³ ksi

Alina [70]

Answer:

Δx = 25 ft.

Explanation:

Assuming that the person on the ground starts running at the same time as the egg is dropped, we have two simultaneous trajectories:

1 ) Egg falling:

If the egg is dropped, and we neglect the air resistance, we can use the kinematic equation that relates the distance and fall time, as follows:

yf-y₀ = 1/2* g* t²

If we take the up direction as positive, we can solve for t as follows:

0-100 ft = 1/2* (-32.15 ft/s²)* t²

⇒ t = \sqrt{(100*2)/32.15} = 2.5 sec.

2) Person on the ground running away:

In order to be able to run away, and then return to catch the egg, running at constant speed, he must run during exactly the half of the time that the egg is falling, i.e., 1.25 sec.

We can get the distance at which he can reach, applying the definition of velocity:

v = (xf-x₀) / (tfi-t₀)

If we choose t₀=0 and x₀ = 0 , we can solve for xf, as follows:

xf = v*t = 20 ft/sec*1.25 sec = 25 ft.
