Consider two water tanks filled with water. The first tank is 8 m high and is stationary, while the second tank is 2 m high and

is moving upward with an acceleration of 3.5 m/s2. Which tank will have a higher pressure at the bottom

Answer:

The first tank has a higher pressure at the bottom because it has  more depth

Explanation:

height of first tank = 8 m

height of second tank = 2 m

acceleration of second tank = 3.5 m/s^{2}

first calculate the pressure of the first tank :

pressure = <em>p</em>gh --- equation 1

where <em>p</em> = 1000 (pressure constant)

g = 9.81 ( acceleration due to gravity )

h = height

back to equation 1

pressure = 1000 * 9.81 * 8 = 78480 N/m^{2}

for the second tank

using equation 1

pressure =<em> p</em>gh

g = 9.91 + 3.5

h = 2 m

since the second tank has an acceleration we have to add it to the acceleration due to gravity so

pressure = 1000 * ( 9.81 + 3.5 ) * 2

               = 1000 * 13.31 * 2

               = 26620 N/m^{2}

Answer:

The second tank would have a higher pressure at the bottom.

Explanation:

Pressure in a vessel is given as the product of the height of the vessel (h), density of the fluid in the vessel (rho) and acceleration due to gravity (g).

For the first tank:

h = 8 m, rho = 1000 kg/m^3, g = 0 m/s^2 (tank is stationary)

P = h×rho×g = 8×1000×0 = 0 Pa

For the second tank

h = 2 m, rho = 1000 kg/m^3, g = 3.5 m/s^2

P = h×rho×g = 2×1000×3.5 = 7,000 Pa

The second tank would have a higher pressure because it is in motion.

Answer:

The electrical power is 96.5 W/m^2

Explanation:

The energy balance is:

Ein-Eout=0

qe+\alpha sGs+\alpha skyGsky-EEb(Ts)-qc=0

if:

Gsky=oTsky^4

Eb=oTs^4

qc=h(Ts-Tα)

\alpha s=\frac{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {\alpha l Gl} \, dl }{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {Gl} \, dl }

\alpha s=\frac{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {\alpha lEl(l,5800 } \, dl }{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {El(l,5800)} \, dl }

if Gl≈El(l,5800)

\alpha s=(1-0.2)F(0-2)+(1-0.7)(1-F(0-2))

lt= 2*5800=11600 um-K, at this value, F=0.941

\alpha s=(0.8*0.941)+0.3(1-0.941)=0.77

The hemispherical emissivity is equal to:

E=(1-0.2)F(0-2)+(1-0.7)(1-F(0-2))

lt=2*333=666 K, at this value, F=0

E=0+(1-0.7)(1)=0.3

The hemispherical absorptivity is equal to:

qe=EoTs^{4}+h(Ts-T\alpha  )-\alpha sGs-\alpha oTsky^{4}=(0.3*5.67x10^{-8}*333^{4})+10(60-20)-(0.77-600)-(0.3*5.67x10^{-8}*233^{4})=96.5 W/m^{2}

Ordan has _ 5 8 can of green paint and _ 3 6 can of blue paint. If the cans are the same size, does Jordan have more green paint
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Jordan has more green paints

Explanation:

Given

Green = \frac{5}{8}

Blue = \frac{3}{6}

Required

Which paint does he have more?

For better understanding, it's better to convert both measurements to decimal.

For the green paint:

Green = \frac{5}{8}

Green = 0.625

For the blue paint:

Blue = \frac{3}{6}

Blue = 0.5

By comparison:

0.625 > 0.5

<em>This means that Jordan has more green paints</em>

Milk has a density of as much as 64.6 lb/ft3. What is the gage pressure at the bottom of the straw 6.1 inches deep in the milk?
gregori [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 inch is 0.0833333feet

6.1 inches is 0.5083 feet

Density = mass/volume

64.6 = mass/0.50833

mass = 64.6 x 0.5083 =32.83618lb

Why is the back-work ratio much higher in the brayton cycle than in the rankine cycle?
zloy xaker [14]

The back-work ratio much higher in the Brayton cycle than in the Rankine cycle because a gas cycle is the Brayton cycle, while a steam cycle is the Rankine cycle. Particularly, the creation of water droplets will be a constraint on the steam turbine's efficiency. Since gas has a bigger specific volume than steam, the compressor will have to work harder while using gas.

<h3>What are modern Brayton engines?</h3>

Even originally Brayton exclusively produced piston engines, modern Brayton engines are virtually invariably of the turbine variety. Brayton engines are also gas turbines.

<h3>What is the ranking cycle?</h3>

A gas cycle is the Brayton cycle, while the Ranking cycle is a steam cycle. The production of water droplets will especially decrease the steam turbine's performance. Gas-powered compressors will have to do more work since gas's specific volume is greater than steam's.
