A gas cylinder is connected to a manometer that contains water. The other end of the manometer is open to the atmosphere, which

in Flagstaff is 79 kPa absolute. Draw a sketch of the problem and determine the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder if the manometer is reading 13 in H2O. Assume the water in the manometer is at 20 °C

Answer: the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa

Explanation:

Given that;

patm = 79 kPa, h = 13 in of H₂O,

A sketch of the problem is uploaded along this answer.

Now

pA = patm + 13 in of H₂O ( h × density × g )

pA= 79 + (13 × 0.0254 × 9.8 × 1000/1000)

pA = 82.23596 kPa

the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa

Two balanced Y-connected loads in parallel, one drawing 15kW at 0.6 power factor lagging and the other drawing 10kVA at 0.8 powe
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) attached below

(b) pf_{C}=0.85 lagging

(c) I_{C} =32.37 A

(d) X_{C} =49.37 Ω

(e) I_{cap} =9.72 A and I_{line} =27.66 A

Explanation:

Given data:

P_{1}=15 kW

S_{2} =10 kVA

pf_{1} =0.6 lagging

pf_{2}=0.8 leading

V=480 Volts

(a) Draw the power triangle for each load and for the combined load.

\alpha_{1}=cos^{-1} (0.6)=53.13°

\alpha_{2}=cos^{-1} (0.8)=36.86°

S_{1}=P_{1} /pf_{1} =15/0.6=25 kVA

Q_{1}=P_{1} tan(\alpha_{1} )=15*tan(53.13)=19.99 ≅ 20kVAR

P_{2} =S_{2}*pf_{2} =10*0.8=8 kW

Q_{2} =P_{2} tan(\alpha_{2} )=8*tan(-36.86)=-5.99 ≅ -6 kVAR

The negative sign means that the load 2 is providing reactive power rather than consuming  

Then the combined load will be

P_{c} =P_{1} +P_{2} =15+8=23 kW

Q_{c} =Q_{1} +Q_{2} =20-6=14 kVAR

(b) Determine the power factor of the combined load and state whether lagging or leading.

S_{c} =P_{c} +jQ_{c} =23+14j

or in the polar form

S_{c} =26.92°

pf_{C}=cos(31.32) =0.85 lagging

The relationship between Apparent power S and Current I is

S=VI^{*}

Since there is conjugate of current I therefore, the angle will become negative and hence power factor will be lagging.

(c) Determine the magnitude of the line current from the source.

Current of the combined load can be found by

I_{C} =S_{C}/\sqrt{3}*V

I_{C} =26.92*10^3/\sqrt{3}*480=32.37 A

(d) Δ-connected capacitors are now installed in parallel with the combined load. What value of capacitive reactance is needed in each leg of the A to make the source power factor unity?Give your answer in Ω

Q_{C} =3*V^2/X_{C}

X_{C} =3*V^2/Q_{C}

X_{C} =3*(480)^2/14*10^3 Ω

(e) Compute the magnitude of the current in each capacitor and the line current from the source.

Current flowing in the capacitor is  

I_{cap} =V/X_{C} =480/49.37=9.72 A

Line current flowing from the source is

I_{line} =P_{C} /3*V=23*10^3/3*480=27.66 A

Air at atmospheric pressure and at 300K flows with a velocity of 1.5m/s over a flat plate. The transition from laminar to turbul
Savatey [412]

Answer:3.47 m

Explanation:

Given

Temperature(T)=300 K

velocity(v)=1.5 m/s

At 300 K

\mu =1.846 \times 10^{-5} Pa-s

\rho =1.77 kg/m^3

And reynold's number is given by

Re.=\frac{\rho v\time x}{\mu }

5\times 10^5=\frac{1.77\times 1.5\times x}{1.846\times 10^{-5}}

x=\frac{5\times 10^5\times 1.846\times 10^{-5}}{1.77\times 1.5}

x=3.47 m

Steam at 75 kPa and 8 percent quality is contained in a spring-loaded piston–cylinder device, as shown in Figure, with an initia
Rashid [163]

The heat transferred to and the work produced by the steam during this process  is 13781.618 kJ/kg

<h3>​How to calcultae the heat?</h3>

The Net Change in Enthalpy will be:

= m ( h2 - h1 ) = 11.216 ( 1755.405 - 566.78 ) = 13331.618 kJ/kg

Work Done (Area Under PV curve) = 1/2 x (P1 + P2) x ( V1 - V2)

= 1/2 x ( 75 + 225) x (5 - 2)

W = 450 KJ

From the First Law of Thermodynamics, Q = U + W

So, Heat Transfer = Change in Internal Energy + Work Done

= 13331.618 + 450

Q = 13781.618 kJ/kg

Provide an argument justifying the following claim: The average (as defined here) of two Java ints i and j is representable as a
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

public static int average(int j, int k) {

return (int)(( (long)(i) + (long)(j) ) /2 );

}

Explanation:

The above code returns the average of two integer variables

Line 1 of the code declares a method along with 2 variables

Method declared: average of integer data type

Variables: j and k of type integer, respectively

Line 2 calculates the average of the two variables and returns the value of the average.

The first of two integers to average is j

The second of two integers to average is k

The last parameter ensures average using (j+k)/2
