Question:

The question is not complete. See the complete question and the answer below.

A well that pumps at a constant rate of 0.5m3/s fully penetrates a confined aquifer of 34 m thickness. After a long period of pumping, near steady state conditions, the measured drawdowns at two observation wells 50m and 100m from the pumping well are 0.9 and 0.4 m respectively. (a) Calculate the hydraulic conductivity and transmissivity of the aquifer (b) estimate the radius of influence of the pumping well, and (c) calculate the expected drawdown in the pumping well if the radius of the well is 0.4m.

Answer:

T = 0.11029m²/sec

Radius of influence = 93.304m

expected drawdown = 3.9336m

Explanation:

See the attached file for the explanation.

Which type of finish is absorbed into the wood?
stiks02 [169]
Penetrating finishes are absorbed by the wood and dry inside the wood. Interior wood stain is used to accentuate the grain in natural woods or plywood while still adding some color. While wood stains offer some level of protection on wood, it's recommended to use stain in combination with a surface finish.

Oil with a density of 800 kg/m3 is pumped from a pressure of 0.6 bar to a pressure of 1.4 bar, and the outlet is 3 m above the i
Naddik [55]

Answer:

23.3808 kW

20.7088 kW

Explanation:

ρ = Density of oil = 800 kg/m³

P₁ = Initial Pressure = 0.6 bar

P₂ = Final Pressure = 1.4 bar

Q = Volumetric flow rate = 0.2 m³/s

A₁ = Area of inlet = 0.06 m²

A₂ = Area of outlet = 0.03 m²

Velocity through inlet = V₁ = Q/A₁ = 0.2/0.06 = 3.33 m/s

Velocity through outlet = V₂ = Q/A₂ = 0.2/0.03 = 6.67 m/s

Height between inlet and outlet = z₂ - z₁ = 3m

Temperature to remains constant and neglecting any heat transfer we use Bernoulli's equation

\frac {P_1}{\rho g}+\frac{V_1^2}{2g}+z_1+h=\frac {P_2}{\rho g}+\frac{V_2^2}{2g}+z_2\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{P_2-P_1}{\rho g}+\frac{V_2^2-V_1^2}{2g}+z_2-z_1\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{(1.4-0.6)\times 10^5}{800\times 9.81}+\frac{6.67_2^2-3.33^2}{2\times 9.81}+3\\\Rightarrow h=14.896\ m

Work done by pump

W_{p}=\rho gQh\\\Rightarrow W_{p}=800\times 9.81\times 0.2\times 14.896\\\Rightarrow W_{p}=23380.8\ W

∴ Power input to the pump 23.3808 kW

Now neglecting kinetic energy

h=\frac{P_2-P_1}{\rho g}+z_2-z_1\\\Righarrow h=\frac{(1.4-0.6)\times 10^5}{800\times 9.81}+3\\\Righarrow h=13.19\ m\\

Work done by pump

W_{p}=\rho gQh\\\Rightarrow W_{p}=800\times 9.81\times 0.2\times 13.193\\\Rightarrow W_{p}=20708.8\ W

∴ Power input to the pump 20.7088 kW

There are three options for heating a particular house: a. Gas: $1.33/therm where 1 therm=105,500 kJ b. Electric Resistance: $0.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

Explanation:

Cheapest method of heating must have least cost per kj of energy. So, convert all the energy in the same unit (say kj) and take select the cheapest method to heat the house.

Given:

Three methods are given to heat a particular house are as follows:

Method (a)

Through Gas, this gives energy of amount $1.33/therm.

Method (b)

Through electric resistance, this gives energy of amount $0.12/KWh.

Method (c)

Through oil, this gives energy of amount $2.30/gallon.

Calculation:

Step1

Change therm to kj in method ‘a’ as follows:

C_{1}=\frac{\$ 1.33}{therm}\times(\frac{1therm}{105500kj})

C_{1}=1.2606\times10^{-5} $/kj.

Step2

Change kWh to kj in method ‘b’ as follows:

C_{2}=\frac{\$ 0.12}{kWh}\times(\frac{1 kWh }{3600kj})

C_{2}=3.334\times10^{-5} $/kj.

Step3

Change kWh to kj in method ‘c’ as follows:

C_{3}=\frac{\$ 2.30}{gallon}\times(\frac{1 gallon }{138500kj})

C_{3}=1.66\times10^{-5} $/kj.

Thus, the method ‘a’ has least cost as compare to method b and c.

So, option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

What is the resistance of a resistor if the current flowing through it is 3mA and the voltage across it is 5.3V?
Flura [38]

Answer: 1766.667 Ω = 1.767kΩ

Explanation:

V=iR

where V is voltage in Volts (V), i is current in Amps (A), and R is resistance in Ohms(Ω).

3mA = 0.003 A

Rearranging the equation, we get

R=V/i

Now we are solving for resistance. Plug in 0.003 A and 5.3 V.

R = 5.3 / 0.003

= 1766.6667 Ω

= 1.7666667 kΩ

The 6s are repeating so round off to whichever value you need for exactness.
