Answer:

Reynolds number determines whether a flow is laminar or turbulent flow.

Explanation:

Reynolds number is defined as ratio of inertia force to the viscous force. it is a dimension less  number. Reynolds number is used to describe the type of flow in a fluid whether it is laminar flow or turbulent flow. Reynolds number is denoted by Re.

When Reynolds number is in the range of 0 to 2000, the flow is considered to be laminar.

When Reynolds number is in the range of 2000 to 4000, the flow is considered to be transition.

And when Reynolds number is more than 4000, the flow is turbulent flow.

                     The boundary layer thickness for a fluid is given by

                                      δ = \frac{5\times x}{\sqrt{Re}}

where δ is boundary layer thickness

           x is distance from the leading edge

           Re is Reynolds number

Thus from the above boundary layer thickness equation, we can see that the boundary layer thickness varies inversely to square root of reynolds number.

alexira [117]

Answer: hello the complete question is attached below

answer:

A) Group symbol = SW

B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand

C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200

Explanation:

<u>A) Classifying the soil according to USCS system</u>

 ( using 2nd image attached below )

<em>description of sand</em> :

The soil is a coarse sand since  ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200 sieve, also

The soil is a sand given that more than 50% particles passed from No 4 sieve

The soil can be a clean sand given that fines ≤ 12%

The soil can be said to be a well graded sand because the percentage of particles passing through decreases gradually over time

Group symbol as per the 2nd image attached below = SW

B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand

C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200

The diameter of an extruder barrel = 85 mm and its length = 2.00 m. The screw rotates at 55 rev/min, its channel depth = 8.0 mm,
babunello [35]

Answer:

Qx = 9.109.10^5 \times 10^{-6} m³/s  

Explanation:

given data

diameter = 85 mm

length = 2 m

depth = 9mm

N = 60 rev/min

pressure p = 11 × 10^6 Pa

viscosity n = 100 Pas

angle = 18°

so  Qd will be

Qd = 0.5 × π² ×D²×dc × sinA × cosA   ..............1

put here value and we get

Qd = 0.5 × π² × ( 85 \times 10^{-3} )²× 9  \times 10^{-3}  × sin18 × cos18

Qd = 94.305 × 10^{-6} m³/s

and

Qb = p × π × D × dc³ × sin²A ÷  12  × n × L    ............2

Qb = 11 × 10^{6} × π × 85 \times 10^{-3}  × ( 9  \times 10^{-3} )³ × sin²18 ÷  12  × 100 × 2

Qb = 85.2 × 10^{-6} m³/s

so here

volume flow rate Qx = Qd - Qb   ..............3

Qx =  94.305 × 10^{-6}  - 85.2 × 10^{-6}  

Qx = 9.109.10^5 \times 10^{-6} m³/s

Write a program that prompts for a line of text and then transforms the text based on chosen actions. Actions include reversing
nlexa [21]

Answer:

public class TextConverterDemo

{

//Method definition of action1337

public static String action1337(String current)

{

//Replace each L or l with a 1 (numeral one)

 current = current.replace('L', '1');

 //Replace each E or e with a 3 (numeral three)

 current = current.replace('E', '3');

 current = current.replace('e', '3');

 //Replace each T or t with a 7 (numeral seven)

 current = current.replace('T', '7');

 current = current.replace('t', '7');

 //Replace each O or o with a 0 (numeral zero)

 current = current.replace('O', '0');

 current = current.replace('o', '0');

 

//Replace each S or s with a $ (dollar sign)

 current = current.replace('S', '$');

 current = current.replace('s', '$');

 return current;

A European car manufacturer reports that the fuel efficiency of the new MicroCar is 48.5 km/L highway and 42.0 km/L city. What a
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Fuel efficiency for highway = 114.08 miles/gallon

Fuel efficiency for city = 98.79 miles/gallon

Explanation:

1 gallon = 3.7854 litres

1 mile = 1.6093 km

Let's first convert the efficiency to km/gallon:

48.5 km/litre = (48.5 * 3.7854) km/gallon

48.5 km/litre =  183.5919 km/gallon (highway)

42.0 km/litre = (42.0 * 3.7854) km/gallon

42.0 km/litre = 158.9868 km/gallon (city)

Next, we convert these to miles/gallon:

183.5919 km/gallon = (183.5919 / 1.6093) miles/gallon

183.5919 km/gallon = 114.08 miles/gallon (highway)

158.9868 km/gallon = (158.9868 /1.6093) miles/gallon

158.9868 km/gallon = 98.79 miles/gallon (city)
