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.

A gas stream flowing at 1000 cfm with a particulate loading of 400 gr/ft3 discharges from a certain industrial plant through an

Makovka662 [10]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

Volume of gas stream = 1000 cfm (Cubic Feet per Minute)

Particulate loading = 400 gr/ft3 (Grain/cubic feet)

1 gr/ft3 = 0.00220462 lb/ft3

Total weight of particulate matter = $1000 \mathrm{cfm} \times 400 \mathrm{gr} / \mathrm{tt} 3 \times .000142857 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft} 3 \times 60=3428.568 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{hr}$

Cyclone is to 80 % efficient

So particulate remaining = $0.20 \times 3428.568 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{hr}=685.7136$

emissions from this stack be limited to = 10.0 lb/hr

Particles to be remaining after wet scrubber = 10.0 lb/hr

So particles to be removed = 685.7136- 10 = 675.7136

Efficiency = output multiply with 100/input = 98.542 %

Convert 850 nm wavelength into frequency, eV, wavenumber, joules and ergs.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Frequency = $3.5294\times 10^{14}s^{-1}$

Wavenumber = $1.1765\times 10^6m^{-1}$

Energy = $2.3365\times 10^{-19}J$

Energy = 1.4579 eV

Energy = $2.3365\times 10^{-12}erg$

Explanation:

As we are given the wavelength = 850 nm

conversion used : $(1nm=10^{-9}m)$

So, wavelength is $850\times 10^{-9}m$

The relation between frequency and wavelength is shown below as:

$Frequency=\frac{c}{Wavelength}$

Where, c is the speed of light having value = $3\times 10^8m/s$

So, Frequency is:

$Frequency=\frac{3\times 10^8m/s}{850\times 10^{-9}m}$

$Frequency=3.5294\times 10^{14}s^{-1}$

Wavenumber is the reciprocal of wavelength.

So,

$Wavenumber=\frac{1}{Wavelength}=\frac{1}{850\times 10^{-9}m}$

$Wavenumber=1.1765\times 10^6m^{-1}$

Also,

$Energy=h\times frequency$

where, h is Plank's constant having value as $6.62\times 10^{-34}J.s$

So,

$Energy=(6.62\times 10^{-34}J.s)\times (3.5294\times 10^{14}s^{-1})$

$Energy=2.3365\times 10^{-19}J$

Also,

$1J=6.24\times 10^{18}eV$

So,

$Energy=(2.3365\times 10^{-19})\times (6.24\times 10^{18}eV)$

$Energy=1.4579eV$

Also,

$1J=10^7erg$

So,

$Energy=(2.3365\times 10^{-19})\times 10^7erg$

$Energy=2.3365\times 10^{-12}erg$

The brakes are being bled on a passenger vehicle with a disc/drum brake system. Technician A says that the drums should be remov

exis [7]

The brakes are being bled on a passenger vehicle with a disc/drum brake system is described in the following

Explanation:

1.Risk: Continued operation at or below Rotor Minimum Thickness can lead to Brake system failure. As the rotor reaches its minimum thickness, the braking distance increases, sometimes up to 4 meters. A brake system is designed to take kinetic energy and transfer it into heat energy.

2.Since the piston needs to be pushed back into the caliper in order to fit over the new pads, I do open the bleeder screw when pushing the piston back in. This does help prevent debris from traveling back through the system and contaminating the ABS sensors

3.There are three methods of bleeding brakes: Vacuum pumping. Pressure pumping. Pump and hold.

4,Brake drag is caused by the brake pads or shoes not releasing completely when the brake pedal is released. ... A worn or corroded master cylinder bore causes excess pedal effort resulting in dragging brakes. Brake Lines and Hoses: There may be pressure trapped in the brake line or hose after the pedal has been released.
