Technicians have to determine the flow rate of water in a pipe with the aid of a venturi installation and a mercury au.oaeter. T

he expected water welocity is about 1.5 a/s. The pipe diameter is 40 mm and the venturi throat has a diameter of 20 mm. The venturi meter has a discharge coefficient C = 0.97. Determine what level difference can be expected in the manometer.

Answer:

Manometric difference x=142.85 mm.

Explanation:

Given :

Pipe diameter $d_1=40 mm$

venturi meter $d_2=20 mm$

We can know that discharge through venturi meter is given as

$Q=C_d\dfrac{A_1A_2\sqrt{2gh}}{\sqrt {A_1^2-A_2^2}}$

$A_1=1.24\times 10^{-3},A_2=3.12\times 10^{-4}$

$Q=A_1V_1$

$Q=1.24\times 10^{-3}\times 1.5=0.00186 m^3/s$

$0.00186=0.97\dfrac{1.24\times 10^{-3}\times 3.12\times 10^{-4} \sqrt{2gh}}{\sqrt {(1.24\times 10^{-3})^2-(3.12\times 10^{-4})^2}}$

h=1.8 m

We know that $h=x\left (\dfrac{\rho_{hg}}{\rho_w}-1\right )$

Where x is the manometric deflection

⇒ $1.8=x\left (\dfrac{13600}{1000}-1\right )$

So x=14.28 mm

Manometric difference x=142.85 mm.

When do design engineers start on the design improvement step?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

as soon as there is a design to improve

Explanation:

As a design engineer, I started on the "design improvement" step as soon as I had an initial conceptual design.

__

Then, I started that step again when my boss told me, "make it better."

_____

The more interesting question is, "when do you <em>stop</em> the design improvement step?" (Judging by the constant barrage of software updates, that answer is, "never.")

Consider the expansion of a gas at a constant temperature in a water-cooled piston-cylinder system. The constant temperature is

Leona [35]

Answer:

$Q_{in} = W_{out} = nRT ln (\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}})$

Explanation:

According to the first thermodynamic law, the energy must be conserved so:

$dQ = dU - dW$

Where Q is the heat transmitted to the system, U is the internal energy and W is the work done by the system.

This equation can be solved by integration between an initial and a final state:

(1) $\int\limits^1_2 {} \, dQ = \int\limits^1_2 {} \, dU - \int\limits^1_2 {} \, dW$

As per work definition:

$dW = F*dr$

For pressure the force F equials the pressure multiplied by the area of the piston, and considering dx as the displacement:

$dW = PA*dx$

Here A*dx equals the differential volume of the piston, and considering that any increment in volume is a work done by the system, the sign is negative, so:

$dW = - P*dV$

So the third integral in equation (1) is:

$\int\limits^1_2 {- P} \, dV$

Considering the gas as ideal, the pressure can be calculated as $P = \frac{n*R*T}{V}$ , so:

$\int\limits^1_2 {- P} \, dV = \int\limits^1_2 {- \frac{n*R*T}{V}} \, dV$

In this particular case as the systems is closed and the temperature constant, n, R and T are constants:

$\int\limits^1_2 {- \frac{n*R*T}{V}} \, dV = -nRT \int\limits^1_2 {\frac{1}{V}} \, dV$

Replacion this and solving equation (1) between state 1 and 2:

$\int\limits^1_2 {} \, dQ = \int\limits^1_2 {} \, dU + nRT \int\limits^1_2 {\frac{1}{V}} \, dV$

$Q_{2} - Q_{1} = U_{2} - U_{1} + nRT(ln V_{2} - ln V_{1})$

$Q_{2} - Q_{1} = U_{2} - U_{1} + nRT ln \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}$

The internal energy depends only on the temperature of the gas, so there is no internal energy change $U_{2} - U_{1} = 0$ , so the heat exchanged to the system equals the work done by the system:

$Q_{in} = W_{out} = nRT ln (\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}})$

Say you have a random, unordered list containing 4096 four-digit numbers. Describe the most efficient way to: sort the list and

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Explanation:

It is given that numbers are four-digit so maximum value of a number in this list could be 9999.

So we need to sort a list of integers, where each integer lies between [0,9999].

For these given constraints we can use counting sort which will run in linear time i.e. O(n).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Psuedo Code:

countSort(int numList[]) {

int count[10000];

count[i] = 0; for all i;

for(int num in numList){

count[num]+= 1;

}

return count;

}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Searching in this count array will be just O(1).

E.g. Lets say we want to search if 3 was present in the original list.

Case 1: it was present in the original list:

Then the count[3] would have been incremented by our sorting algorithm. so in case element exists then count value of that element will be greater than 0.

Case 2: it was not present:

In this case count[3] will remain at 0. so in case element does not exist then count of that element will be 0.

So to search for an element, say x, we just need to check if count[x]>0.

So search is O(1).

Run times:

Sorting: O(n)

Search: O(1)

What was the role of the rotors in the enigma machine?.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Implements a reordering of the letters of the alphabet.

Explanation: GIVE ME 5 STARS AND a HEART!!! Those contacts are wired across the rotor so that each contact on the left connects to the contact on the right in some scrambled arrangement. Each rotor, therefore, implements a reordering of the letters of the alphabet, which mathematicians call a permutation.
