A centrifugal pump is required to pump water to an open water link situated 4 km away from the location of the pump through a pi

pe of diameter 0.2 m having Darcy's friction factor of 0.01. The average speed of water in the pipe is 2 m/s. If it maintains a constant head of 5 m in the tank, what is the corresponding pressure in bar abs.

Answer:

P= 5.5 bar

Explanation:

Given that

L= 4000 m

d= 0.2 m

Friction factor(F) = 0.01

speed V= 2 m/s

Head = 5 m

Head loss due to friction

h_f=\dfrac{FLV^2}{2gd}

h_f=\dfrac{0.01\times 4000\times 2^2}{2\times 9.81\times 0.2}

h_f=40.77m

So the total head(H) = 5 + 40.77 + 10.3 =56.07

Where 10.3 m is the atmospheric head.

We know that

P=ρ g H

So total Pressure

P= 1000 x 9.81 x 56.07 Pa

P=5.5\times 10^5\ Pa

P= 5.5 bar

An experiment to determine the convection coefficient associated with airflow over the surface of a thick stainless steel castin
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

h = 375 KW/m^2K

Explanation:

Given:

Thermo-couple distances: L_1 = 10 mm , L_2 = 20 mm

steel thermal conductivity k = 15 W / mK

Thermo-couple temperature measurements: T_1 = 50 C , T_2 = 40 C

Air Temp T_∞ = 100 C

Assuming there are no other energy sources, energy balance equation is:

                                               E_in = E_out

                                        q"_cond = q"_conv

Since, its a case 1-D steady state conduction, the total heat transfer rate can be found from Fourier's Law for surfaces 1 and 2

q"_cond = k * (T_1 - T_2) / (L_2 - L_1) = 15 * (50 - 40) / (0.02 - 0.01)

=15KW/m^2

Assuming SS is solid, temperature at the surface exposed to air will be 60 C since its gradient is linear in the case of conduction, and there are two temperatures given in the problem. Convection coefficient can be found from Newton's Law of cooling:

q"_conv = h * ( T_∞  - T_s ) ----> h = q"_conv / ( T_∞  - T_s )

                                                   h = 15000 W / (100 - 60 ) C = 375 KW/m^2K

Fibonacci sequence has many applications in Computer Science. Write a program to generate Fibonacci numbers as many as desired.
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The Python Code for Fibonacci Sequence is :

# Function for nth Fibonacci number  

def Fibonacci(n):  

if n<0:  

 print("Incorrect input")  

# First Fibonacci number is 0  

elif n==0:  

 return 0

# Second Fibonacci number is 1  

elif n==1:  

 return 1

else:  

 return Fibonacci(n-1)+Fibonacci(n-2)  

# Driver Program  

print(Fibonacci(9))  

Explanation:

The Fibonacci numbers are the numbers in the following integer sequence.

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ……..

In mathematical terms, the sequence Fn of Fibonacci numbers is defined by the recurrence relation

Fn = Fn-1 + Fn-2

with seed values

F0 = 0 and F1 = 1.

A race car is travelling around a circular track. The velocity of the car is 20 m/s, the radius of the track is 300 m, and the m
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

μ = 0.136

Explanation:

given,

velocity of the car = 20 m/s

radius of the track = 300 m

mass of the car = 2000 kg

centrifugal force

F_c = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

F_c = \dfrac{2000\times 20^2}{300}

F c = 2666. 67 N

F f= μ N

F f = μ m g

2666.67  =  μ × 2000 × 9.8

μ = 0.136

so, the minimum coefficient of friction between road surface and car tyre is equal to μ = 0.136
