Answer:

Contaminated sharps should not be bent, recapped or removed.

Explanation:

Contaminated sharps are defined as "any contaminated object that can penetrate the skin including, but not limited to, needles, scalpels, broken glass, broken capillary tubes and exposed ends of dental wires".

III. During January, at a location in Alaska winds at −27°C can be observed. However, several meters below ground the temperatur

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Not possible.

Explanation:

According to second law of thermodynamics, the maximum efficiency any heat engine could achieve is Carnot Efficiency η defined by:

$\eta=1-\frac{T_{cold}}{T_{hot}}$

Where

$T_{hot}$ and $T_{cold}$ are temperature (in Kelvin) of heat source and heatsink respectively

In our case (I will be using K = 273+°C) :

$\eta=1-\frac{-27+273}{14+273}\\=0.1428$

In percentage, this is 14.28% efficiency, which is the maximum theoretical efficiency any heat engine could have while working between -27 and 14 °C temperature. Any claim of more efficient heat engine between these 2 temperature are violates the second law of thermodynamics. Therefore, the claim must be false.

5. The water in an 8-m-diameter, 3-m-high above-ground swimming pool is to be emptied by unplugging a 3-cm-diameter, 25-m-long h

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The maximum discharge rate of water through the pipe is 0.00545 m³/s or 5.45 L/s.

Friction head and pressure head will cause the actual flow rate to be less.

Explanation:

Considering point 1 at the free surface of the pool, and point 2 at the exit of

pipe.

Using Bernoulli equation between

these two points simplifies to

P1/(p*g) + V1²/2g + z1 = P2/(p*g) + V2²/2g + z2

Let the reference level at the pipe exit (z2 = 0). Noting that the fluid at both points is open to the atmosphere (and thus P1 = P2 = Patm) and that the fluid velocity at the free surface is very low (V1 ≅ 0),

P/(p*g) + z1 = P/(p*g) + V2²/2g

z1 = V2²/2g

Note; z1 = h

V2max = √2gh

h = 3 m

V2max = √2 * 9.81 * 3

V2max = √58.86 = 7.67 m/s

maximum discharge rate of water through the pipe Qmax = Area A * Velocity of discharge V2max

Qmax = A * V2max

Diameter d = 3 cm = 0.03 m

A = Πd²/4 = (Π * 0.03²)/4 = 0.00071m³

Qmax = 0.00071 * 7.67 = 0.00545 m³/s

Qmax = 5.45 L/s

The maximum discharge rate of water through the pipe is 0.00545 m³/s or 5.45 L/s.

Actual flow rate will be less because of heads such as friction head and pressure head.
