As shown, a load of mass 10 kg is situated on a piston of diameter D1 = 140 mm. The piston rides on a reservoir of oil of depth

h1 = 42 mm and specific gravity S = 0.8. The reservoir is connected to a round tube of diameter D2 = 5 mm and oil rises in the tube to height h2. Find h2. Assume the oil in the tube is open to atmosphere and neglect the mass of the piston.

Answer:

165 mm

Explanation:

The mass on the piston will apply a pressure on the oil. This is:

p = f / A

The force is the weight of the mass

f = m * a

Where a in the acceleration of gravity

A is the area of the piston

A = π/4 * D1^2

Then:

p = m * a / (π/4 * D1^2)

The height the oil will raise is the heignt of a colum that would create that same pressure at its base:

p = f / A

The weight of the column is:

f = m * a

The mass of the column is its volume multiplied by its specific gravity

m  = V * S

The volume is the base are by the height

V = A * h

Then:

p = A * h * S * a / A

We cancel the areas:

p = h * S * a

Now we equate the pressures form the piston and the pil column:

m * a / (π/4 * D1^2) = h * S * a

We simplify the acceleration of gravity

m / (π/4 * D1^2) = h * S

Rearranging:

h = m / (π/4 * D1^2 * S)

Now, h is the heigth above the interface between the piston and the oil, this is at h1 = 42 mm. The total height is

h2 = h + h1

h2 = h1 + m / (π/4 * D1^2 * S)

h2 = 0.042 + 10 / (π/4 * 0.14^2 * 0.8) = 0.165 m = 165 mm

What is the velocity of flow in an asphalt channel that has a hydraulic radius of 3.404 m, length of 200 m and bed slope of 0.00
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The velocity of flow is 10.0 m/s.

Explanation:

We shall use Manning's equation to calculate the velocity of flow

Velocity of flow by manning's equation is given by

V=\frac{1}{n}R^{2/3}S^{1/2}

where

n = manning's roughness coefficient

R = hydraulic radius

S = bed slope of the channel

We know that for an asphalt channel value of manning's roughness coefficient = 0.016

Applying values in the above equation we obtain velocity of flow as

V=\frac{1}{0.016}\times 3.404^{2/3}\times 0.005^{1/2}\\\\\therefore V=10.000m/s

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a natural gas in its liquid form that is clear, colorless, odorless, non-corrosive, and non-toxic
ZanzabumX [31]

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) can be defined as a natural gas which in liquid form appear clear and colorless. It is odorless, non-toxic, and non-corrosive. Therefore, the given statement is A) True.

  • LNG or Liquified Natural Gas is a fossil fuel that is produced after the compression of organic matter in the form of algae and phytoplankton.
  • LNG consists of 95% methane gas.
  • The combustion of LNG produces carbon dioxide and water vapors.
  • It burns with a least pollution thus called as cleanest fossil fuel.
  • The liquefaction of the natural gas takes place at -160 degree Celsius. The liquefaction of the gas causes it to transport easily in gas tanks.
  • LNG is colorless, and clear.
  • LNG does not possess any smell and it is non-corrosive to metallic tanks.
  • LNG is also non-toxic.
