Answer:

hL = 0.9627 m

Explanation:

Given

Q = 0.040 m³/s (constant value)

D₁ = 15 cm = 0.15 m  ⇒  R₁ = D₁/2 = 0.15 m/2 = 0.075 m

D₂ = 8 cm = 0.08 m  ⇒  R₂ = D₂/2 = 0.08 m/2 = 0.04 m

P₁ = 480 kPa = 480*10³Pa

P₂ = 440 kPa = 440*10³Pa

α = 1.05

ρ = 1000 Kg/m³

g = 9.81 m/s²

h₁ = h₂

hL = ?  (the irreversible head loss in the reducer)

Using the formula Q = v*A   ⇒  v = Q/A

we can find the velocities v₁ and v₂ as follows

v₁ = Q/A₁ = Q/(π*R₁²) = (0.040 m³/s)/(π*(0.075 m)²) = 2.2635 m/s

v₂ = Q/A₂ = Q/(π*R₂²) = (0.040 m³/s)/(π*(0.04 m)²) = 7.9577 m/s

Then we apply the Bernoulli law (for an incompressible flow)

(P₂/(ρ*g)) + (α*v₂²/(2*g)) + h₂ = (P₁/(ρ*g)) + (α*v₁²/(2*g)) + h₁ - hL

Since h₁ = h₂ we obtain

(P₂/(ρ*g)) + (α*v₂²/(2*g)) = (P₁/(ρ*g)) + (α*v₁²/(2*g)) - hL

⇒  hL = ((P₁-P₂)/(ρ*g)) + (α/(2*g))*(v₁²-v₂²)

⇒  hL = ((480*10³Pa-440*10³Pa)/(1000 Kg/m³*9.81 m/s²)) + (1.05/(2*9.81 m/s²))*((2.2635 m/s)²-(7.9577 m/s)²)

⇒  hL = 0.9627 m

The most important rating for batteries is the what
kifflom [539]

Answer:

I'm completely sure that the answer is: The most important rating for batteries is the ampere-hour rating. Ampere-hour is the battery discharge rating. It's used as a measure of charge in your device. It indicates how long your device will work without charging.

Explanation:

Hope this helped!

How do you identify all sensors, functions, and where we can use them?
Alex17521 [72]

Sensor/Detectors/Transducers are electrical, opto-electrical, or electronic devices composed of specialty electronics or otherwise sensitive materials, for determining if there is a presence of a particular entity or function. Many vehicles including cars, trains, buses etc. all use sensors to monitor oil temperature and pressure, throttle and steering systems and so many more aspects.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

  technician A is correct

Explanation:

Technician B has circuit topologies confused. In a series circuit, there is only one path for electrical current to take. In a parallel circuit, the current will divide between paths in proportion to the inverse of their resistance. The least resistance path will have the most current.

Technician A is mostly correct.

Miller Indices:
svetlana [45]

Answer:

A) The sketches for the required planes were drawn in the first attachment [1 2 1] and the second attachment [1 2 -4].

B) The closest distance between planes are d₁₂₁=a/√6 and d₁₂₋₄=a/√21 with  lattice constant a.

C) Five posible directions that electrons can move on the surface of a [1 0 0] silicon crystal are: |0 0 1|, |0 1 3|, |0 1 1|, |0 3 1| and |0 0 1|.

Compleated question:

1. Miller Indices:

a. Sketch (on separate plots) the (121) and (12-4) planes for a face centered cubic crystal structure.

b. What are the closest distances between planes (called d₁₂₁ and d₁₂₋₄)?

c. List five possible directions (using the Miller Indices) the electron can move on the surface of a (100) silicon crystal.

Explanation:

A)To draw a plane in a face centered cubic lattice, you have to follow these instructions:

1- the cube has 3 main directions called "a", "b" and "c" (as shown in the first attachment) and the planes has 3 main coeficients shown as [l m n]

2- The coordinates of that plane are written as: π:[1/a₀ 1/b₀ 1/c₀] (if one of the coordinates is 0, for example [1 1 0], c₀ is ∞, therefore that plane never cross the direction c).

3- Identify the points a₀, b₀, and c₀ at the plane that crosses this main directions and point them in the cubic cell.

4- Join the points.

<u>In this case, for [1 2 1]:</u>

l=1=1/a_0 \rightarrow a_0=1

m=2=2/b_0 \rightarrow b_0=0.5

n=1=1/c_0 \rightarrow c_0=1

<u>for </u>[1 2 \overline{4}]<u>:</u>

l=1=1/a_0 \rightarrow a_0=1

m=2=2/b_0 \rightarrow b_0=0.5

n=\overline{4}=-4/c_0 \rightarrow c_0=-0.25

B) The closest distance between planes with the same Miller indices can be calculated as:

With \pi:[l m n] ,the distance is d_{lmn}= \displaystyle \frac{a}{\sqrt{l^2+m^2+n^2}} with lattice constant a.

<u>In this case, for [1 2 1]:</u>

<u />d_{121}= \displaystyle \frac{a}{\sqrt{1^2+2^2+1^2}}=\frac{a}{\sqrt{6}}=0.41a<u />

<u>for </u>[1 2 \overline{4}]<u>:</u>

d_{12\overline{4}}= \displaystyle \frac{a}{\sqrt{1^2+2^2+(-4)^2}}=\frac{a}{\sqrt{21}}=0.22a

C) The possible directions that electrons can move on a surface of a crystallographic plane are the directions contain in that plane that point in the direction between nuclei. In a silicon crystal, an fcc structure, in the plane [1 0 0], we can point in the directions between the nuclei in the vertex (0 0 0) and e nuclei in each other vertex. Also, we can point in the direction between the nuclei in the vertex (0 0 0) and e nuclei in the center of the face of the adjacent crystals above and sideways. Therefore:

dir₁=|0 0 1|

dir₂=|0 0.5 1.5|≡|0 1 3|

dir₃=|0 1 1|

dir₄=|0 1.5 0.5|≡|0 3 1|

dir₅=|0 0 1|
