Answer:

the buoyant force on the chamber is F = 7000460 N

Explanation:

the buoyant force on the chamber is equal to the weight of the displaced volume of sea water due to the presence of the chamber.

Since the chamber is completely covered by water, it displaces a volume equal to its spherical volume

mass of water displaced = density of seawater * volume displaced

m= d * V , V = 4/3π* Rext³

the buoyant force is the weight of this volume of seawater

F = m * g = d * 4/3π* Rext³ * g

replacing values

F = 1025 kg/m³ * 4/3π * (5.5m)³ * 9.8m/s² = 7000460 N

Note:

when occupied the tension force on the cable is

T = F buoyant - F weight of chamber  = 7000460 N - 87600 kg*9.8 m/s² = 6141980 N

8. Fig. 4.1 shows a heavy ball B of weight W suspended from a fixed beam by two ropes P and Q.
mart [117]

Answer:

The resultant tension of the two ropes is approximately 42.4 N

The length of the line representing the resultant tension is approximately 8.48 cm

Please find included  with the answer the scale drawing created with Microsoft Word

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The tension in rope P, T_P = 30 N

The tension in rope Q, T_Q = 30 N

The angle the rope, 'P', makes with the horizontal = 45°

The angle the rope, 'Q', makes with the horizontal = 45°

The scale factor of the scale diagram, S.F. = 5.0 N/cm

By the resolution of forces at equilibrium, we have;

The sum of the vertical forces, \Sigma F_y = T_P_y + T_Q_y + W = 0

∴ W = -(T_P_y + T_Q_y)

W = -(30 × sin(45°) + 30 × sin(45°)) = -42.4264068712

The weight of the heavy ball, W ≈ 42.4 N acting downwards

The sum of the horizontal forces, \Sigma F_x = T_P_x + T_Q_x  = 0

The length of the resultant force, W = W/(S.F.) ≈ 42.4 N/(5.0 N/cm) = 8.48 cm

The drawing of the vectors using the scale factor of 5.0 N/cm is created using Microsoft Word is included

a liquid reactant is pumped through a horizontal, cylindrical, catalytic bed. The catalyst particles are spherical, 2mm in diame
natulia [17]

Answer:

The upper limit on the flow rate = 39.46 ft³/hr

Explanation:

Using Ergun Equation to calculate the pressure drop across packed bed;

we have:

\frac{\delta P}{L}= \frac{150 \mu_oU(1- \epsilon )^2}{d^2p \epsilon^3} + \frac{1.75 \rho U^2(1-\epsilon)}{dp \epsilon^3}

where;

L = length of the bed

\mu = viscosity

U = superficial velocity

\epsilon = void fraction

dp = equivalent spherical diameter of bed material (m)

\rho = liquid density (kg/m³)

However, since U ∝ Q and all parameters are constant ; we can write our equation to be :

ΔP = AQ + BQ²

where;

ΔP = pressure drop

Q = flow rate

Given that:

9.6 = A12 + B12²

Then

12A + 144B = 9.6       --------------   equation (1)

24A + 576B = 24.1    ---------------  equation (2)

Using elimination methos; from equation (1); we first multiply it by 2 and then subtract it from equation 2 afterwards ; So

288 B = 4.9

       B = 0.017014

From equation (1)

12A + 144B  = 9.6

12A + 144(0.017014) = 9.6

12 A = 9.6 - 144(0.017014)

A = \frac{9.6 -144(0.017014}{12}

A = 0.5958

Thus;

ΔP = AQ + BQ²

Given that ΔP = 50 psi

Then

50 = 0.5958 Q + 0.017014 Q²

Dividing by the smallest value and then rearranging to a form of quadratic equation; we have;

Q² + 35.02Q - 2938.8 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation and taking consideration of the positive value for the upper limit of the flow rate ;

Q = 39.46 ft³/hr
