A building window pane that is 1.44 m high and 0.96 m wide is separated from the ambient air by a storm window of the same heigh

t and width. The air space between the two windows is 0.06 m thick. If the building and storm windows are at 20 and −10°C, respectively, what is the rate of heat loss by free convection across the air space?

Answer:

the rate of heat loss by convection across the air space = 82.53 W

Explanation:

The film temperature

$T_f = \frac{T_1+T_2}{2} \\\\= \frac{20-10}{2}\\\\= \frac{10}{2}\\\\= 5^0\ C$

to kelvin = (5 + 273)K = 278 K

From the " thermophysical properties of gases at atmospheric pressure" table; At $T_f$ = 278 K ; by interpolation; we have the following

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{v-11.44(10^{-6})}{15.89(10^{-6})-11.44(10^{-6})}$ → v 13.93 (10⁻⁶) m²/s

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{k-22.3(10^{-3}}{26.3(10^{-3}-22.3(10^{-3})}$ → k = 0.0245 W/m.K

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{\alpha - 15.9(10^{-6})}{22.5(10^{-6}-15.9(10^{-6})}$ → ∝ = 19.6(10⁻⁶)m²/s

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{Pr-0.720}{0.707-0.720}$ → Pr = 0.713

$\beta = \frac{1}{T_f} \\=\frac{1}{278} \\ \\ = 0.00360 \ K ^{-1}$

The Rayleigh number for vertical cavity

$Ra_L = \frac{g \beta (T_1-T_2)L^3}{\alpha v}$

= $\frac{9.81*0.00360(20-(-10))*0.06^3}{19.6(10^{-6})*13.93(10^{-6})}$

= $8.38*10^5$

$\frac{H}{L}= \frac{1.44}{0.06} \\ \\= 24$

For the rectangular cavity enclosure , the Nusselt number empirical correlation:

$Nu_L = 0.42(8.38*10^5)^{\frac{1}{4}}(0.713)^{0.012}(24){-0.3}$

$NU_L= \frac{hL}{k}= 4.878$

$\frac{hL}{k}= 4.878$

$\frac{h*0.06}{0.0245}= 4.878$

$h = \frac{4.878*0.0245}{0.06}$

h = 1.99 W/m².K

Finally; the rate of heat loss by convection across the air space;

q = hA(T₁ - T₂)

q = 1.99(1.4*0.96)(20-(-10))

q = 82.53 W

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The white lined paper

Explanation:

The teacher is most likely putting the while line paper in jeopardy because of the detail process involved in taking care of the paper prior to the submission of the home work.

The fact that a mistake must not be visible due to the instruction of every erasures being thorough and clean. this can cause jeopardy to the paper.

PythonA group of statisticians at a local college has asked you to create a set of functionsthat compute the median and mode of

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

def median(l):
if(len(l) == 0):
return 0
else:
l.sort()
if(len(l)%2 == 0):
index = int(len(l)/2)
mid = (l[index-1] + l[index]) / 2
else:
mid = l[len(l)//2]
return mid
def mode(l):
if(len(l)==0):
return 0
mode = max(set(l), key=l.count)
return mode
def mean(l):
if(len(l)==0):
return 0
sum = 0
for x in l:
sum += x
mean = sum / len(l)
return mean
lst = [5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 12, 13, 15, 25, 30, 45, 61]
print(mean(lst))
print(median(lst))
print(mode(lst))

Explanation:

Firstly, we create a median function (Line 1). This function will check if the the length of list is zero and also if it is an even number. If the length is zero (empty list), it return zero (Line 2-3). If it is an even number, it will calculate the median by summing up two middle index values and divide them by two (Line 6-8). Or if the length is an odd, it will simply take the middle index value and return it as output (Line 9-10).

In mode function, after checking the length of list, we use the max function to estimate the maximum count of the item in list (Line 17) and use it as mode.

In mean function, after checking the length of list, we create a sum variable and then use a loop to add the item of list to sum (Line 23-25). After the loop, divide sum by the length of list to get the mean (Line 26).

In the main program, we test the three functions using a sample list and we shall get

A solid circular rod that is 600 mm long and 20 mm in diameter is subjected to an axial force of P = 50 kN The elongation of the

Kay [80]

Answer:

a) V = 0.354

b) G = 25.34 GPA

Explanation:

Solution:

We first determine Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of rigidity

Elongation of rod ΔL = 1.4 mm

Normal stress, δ = P/A

Where P = Force acting on the cross-section

A = Area of the cross-section

Using Area, A = π/4 · d²

= π/4 · (0.0020)² = 3.14 × 10⁻⁴m²

δ = 50/3.14 × 10⁻⁴ = 159.155 MPA

E(long) = Δl/l = 1.4/600 = 2.33 × 10⁻³mm/mm

Modulus of Elasticity Е = δ/ε

= 159.155 × 10⁶/2.33 × 10⁻³ = 68.306 GPA

Also final diameter d(f) = 19.9837 mm

Initial diameter d(i) = 20 mm

Poisson said that V = Е(elasticity)/Е(long)

= - <u>( 19.9837 - 20 /20)</u>

2.33 × 10⁻³

= 0.354,

∴ v = 0.354

Also G = Е/2. (1+V)

= 68.306 × 10⁹/ 2.(1+ 0.354)

= 25.34 GPA

⇒ G = 25.34 GPA

The dam cross section is an equilateral triangle, with a side length, L, of 50 m. Its width into the paper, b, is 100 m. The dam

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

In an equilateral trinagle the center of mass is at 1/3 of the height and horizontally centered.

We can consider that the weigth applies a torque of T = W*b/2 on the right corner, being W the weight and b the base of the triangle.

The weigth depends on the size and specific gravity.

W = 1/2 * b * h * L * SG

Then

Teq = 1/2 * b * h * L * SG * b / 2

Teq = 1/4 * b^2 * h * L * SG

The water would apply a torque of elements of pressure integrated over the area and multiplied by the height at which they are apllied:

$T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {p(y) * sin(30) * L * (h-y)} \, dy$

The term sin(30) is because of the slope of the wall

The pressure of water is:

p(y) = SGw * (h - y)

Then:

$T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {SGw * (h-y) * sin(30) * L * (h-y)} \, dy$

$T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {SGw * sin(30) * L * (h-y)^2} \, dy$

$T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {(h-y)^2} \, dy$

$T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {(h-y)^2} \, dy$

$T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {h^2 - 2*h*y + y^2} \, dy$

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^2*y - h*y^2 + 1/3*y^3)(evaluated between 0 and h)

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^2*h - h*h^2 + 1/3*h^3)

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^3 - h^3 + 1/3*h^3)

T1 = 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * h^3

To remain stable the equilibrant torque (Teq) must be of larger magnitude than the water pressure torque (T1)

1/4 * b^2 * h * L * SG > 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * h^3

In an equilateral triangle h = b * cos(30)

1/4 * b^3 * cos(30) * L * SG > 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * b^3 * (cos(30))^3

SG > SGw * 4/3* sin(30) * (cos(30))^2

SG > 1/2 * SGw

For the dam to hold, it should have a specific gravity of at leas half the specific gravity of water.

This is avergae specific gravity, including holes.
