d at 25 m above the sea level. Please find the tube radius if the rate of total mechanical energy (kinetic plus potential plus flow work) for oil is 57.5 kW (i.e. 57.5 kJ/s).

Answer:

radius = 0.045 m

Explanation:

Given data:

density of oil = 780 kg/m^3

velocity = 20 m/s

height = 25 m

Total energy is = 57.5 kW

we have now

E = kinetic energy+ potential energy + flow work

$E = \dot m ( \frac{v^2}{2] + zg + p\nu)$

$E = \dot m( \frac{v^2}{2] + zg + p_{atm} \frac{1}{\rho})$

$57.5 \times 10^3 = \dot m ( \frac{20^2}{2} + 25 \times 9.81 + 101325 \frac{1}{780})$

solving for flow rate

$\dot m = 99.977we know that [tex]\dot m = \rho AV$

$\dot m = 780 \frac{\pi}{4} D^2\times 16$

solving for d

$99.97 = 780 \times \frac{\pi}{4} D^2\times 16$

d = 0.090 m

so radius = 0.045 m

Should the ship breaking business continue why or why not?

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Ship-breaking or ship demolition is a type of ship disposal involving the breaking up of ships for either a source of parts, which can be sold for re-use, or for the extraction of raw materials, chiefly scrap. It may also be known as ship dismantling, ship cracking, or ship recycling. Modern ships have a lifespan of 25 to 30 years before corrosion, metal fatigue and a lack of parts render them uneconomical to operate.[1] Ship-breaking allows the materials from the ship, especially steel, to be recycled and made into new products. This lowers the demand for mined iron ore and reduces energy use in the steel making process. Fixtures and other equipment on board the vessels can also be reused. While ship-breaking is sustainable, there are concerns about the use of poorer countries without stringent environmental legislation. It is also labor-intensive, and considered one of the world's most dangerous industries.[2]

In 2012, roughly 1,250 ocean ships were broken down, and their average age was 26 years.[3][4] In 2013, the world total of demolished ships amounted to 29,052,000 tonnes, 92% of which were demolished in Asia. As of January 2020, India has the largest global share at 30%;[5] followed by Bangladesh, China and Pakistan.[6] Alang, India currently has the world's largest ship graveyard,[5] followed by Chittagong Ship Breaking Yard in Bangladesh and Gadani in Pakistan.[6]

The largest sources of ships are states of China, Greece and Germany respectively, although there is a greater variation in the source of carriers versus their disposal.[7] The ship-breaking yards of India, Bangladesh, China and Pakistan employ 225,000 workers as well as providing many indirect jobs. In Bangladesh, the recycled steel covers 20% of the country's needs and in India it is almost 10%.[8]

As an alternative to ship-breaking, ships may be sunk to create artificial reefs after legally-mandated removal of hazardous materials, or sunk in deep ocean waters. Storage is a viable temporary option, whether on land or afloat, though all ships will be eventually scrapped, sunk, or preserved for museums.

The fins attached to a surface are determined to have an effectiveness of 0.9. Do the rate of heat transfer from the surface dec

Nesterboy [21]

Answer: The rate of heat transfer decreases.

Explanation:

Fin effectiveness is defined as the ratio of heat transfer rate from a finned surface to the heat transfer rate from the same surface if there were no fins. Its value is expected to be greater than 1.

Having effectiveness value of 0.9 which is less than 1 indicates that the heat transfer rate will decrease since a fin effectiveness smaller than 1 shows that the fin acts as insulation (thermal insulation).

A vector AP is rotated about the Z-axis by 60 degrees and is subsequently rotated about X-axis by 30 degrees. Give the rotation

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

R = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&cos30&-sin30\\0&sin30&cos30\end{array}\right]$ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos 60&-sin60&0\\sin60&cos60&60\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

Explanation:

The mappings always involve a translation and a rotation of the matrix. Therefore, the rotation matrix will be given by:

Let $\theta$ and $\alpha$ be the the angles 60⁰ and 30⁰ respectively

that is $\theta$ = 60⁰ and

$\alpha$ = 30⁰

The matrix is given by the following expression:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&cos30&-sin30\\0&sin30&cos30\end{array}\right]$ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos 60&-sin60&0\\sin60&cos60&60\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

The angles can be evaluated and left in the surd form.

For a cylindrical annulus whose inner and outer surfaces are maintained at 30 ºC and 40 ºC, respectively, a heat flux sensor mea

miskamm [114]

Answer:

$k=0.12\ln(r_2/r_1)$ $\frac {W}{ m^{\circ} C}$

where $r_1$ and $r_2$ be the inner radius, outer radius of the annalus.

Explanation:

Let $r_1$ , $r_2$ and $L$ be the inner radius, outer radius and length of the given annulus.

Temperatures at the inner surface, $T_1=30^{\circ}C\\$ and at the outer surface, $T_2=40^{\circ}C$ .

Let q be the rate of heat transfer at the steady-state.

Given that, the heat flux at r=3cm=0.03m is

$40 W/m^2$ .

$\Rightarrow \frac{q}{(2\pi\times0.03\times L)}=40$

$\Rightarrow q=2.4\pi L \;W$

This heat transfer is same for any radial position in the annalus.

Here, heat transfer is taking placfenly in radial direction, so this is case of one dimentional conduction, hence Fourier's law of conduction is applicable.

Now, according to Fourier's law:

$q=-kA\frac{dT}{dr}\;\cdots(i)$

where,

K=Thermal conductivity of the material.

T= temperature at any radial distance r.

A=Area through which heat transfer is taking place.

Here, $A=2\pi rL\;\cdots(ii)$

Variation of temperature w.r.t the radius of the annalus is

$\frac {T-T_1}{T_2-T_1}=\frac{\ln(r/r_1)}{\ln(r_2/r_1)}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dT}{dr}=\frac{T_2-T_1}{\ln(r_2/r_1)}\times \frac{1}{r}\;\cdots(iii)$

Putting the values from the equations (ii) and (iii) in the equation (i), we have

$q=\frac{2\pi kL(T_1-T_2)}{\LN(R_2/2_1)}$

$\Rightarrow k= \frac{q\ln(r_2/r_1)}{2\pi L(T_2-T_1)}$

$\Rightarrow k=\frac{(2.4\pi L)\ln(r_2/r_1)}{2\pi L(10)}$ [as $q=2.4\pi L$ , and $T_2-T_1=10 ^{\circ}C$ ]

$\Rightarrow k=0.12\ln(r_2/r_1)$ $\frac {W}{ m^{\circ} C}$

This is the required expression of k. By putting the value of inner and outer radii, the thermal conductivity of the material can be determined.
