A triangular roadside channel is poorly lined with riprap. The channel has side slopes of 2:1 (H:V) and longitudinal slope of 2.

5 percent. Determine the flow rate (cubic meters per second) in the channel if flow is uniform and the top width of the flowing channel is 5 meters.

Answer:

Q = 14.578 m³/s

Explanation:

Given

We use the Manning Equation as follows

Q = (1/n)*A*(∛R²)*(√S)

where

  • Q = volumetric water flow rate passing through the stretch of channel (m³/s for S.I.)
  • A = cross-sectional area of flow perpendicular to the flow direction, (m² for S.I.)
  • S = bottom slope of channel, m/m (dimensionless) = 2.5% = 0.025
  • n = Manning roughness coefficient (empirical constant), dimensionless = 0.023
  • R = hydraulic radius = A/P (m for S.I.) where :
  • A = cross-sectional area of flow as defined above,
  • P = wetted perimeter of cross-sectional flow area (m for S.I.)

we get A as follows

A = (B*h)/2

where

B = 5 m (the top width of the flowing channel)

h = (B/2)*(m) = (5 m/2)*(1/2) = 1.25 m   (the deep)

A = (5 m*1.25 m/2) = 3.125 m²

then we find P

P = 2*√((B/2)²+h²)   ⇒  P = 2*√((2.5 m)²+(1.25 m)²) = 5.59 m

⇒ R = A/P ⇒ R = 3.125 m²/5.59 m = 0.559 m

Substituting values into the Manning equation gives:

Q = (1/0.023)*(3.125 m²)*(∛(0.559 m)²)*(√0.025)

⇒ Q = 14.578 m³/s

Otrada [13]

Answer:

Hand tools based on job requirement and its importance and the classification of hand tools according to its function and its importance are discussed below in details.

Explanation:

Hand tools based on work requirement is essential because Every tool is specifically invented for a particular purpose, so picking the accurate tool will also reduce the amount of energy needed to get work done right without causing injury or harm to either the tools or the exterior being worked on.

classifying of hand tools: wrenches, screwdrivers, cutters, striking tools, hammer tool or struck, pliers, vise, clamps, snips, saws, drills, and knives.

python Given num_rows and num_cols, print a list of all seats in a theater. Rows are numbered, columns lettered, as in 1A or 3E.
MissTica

Explanation:

First of all get the input from the user, number of rows and number of columns where rows represents seat digit number and column represents the seat letter

rows is initialized to 1 to ensure that row starts at 1 or you can remove it then seat number will start from 0.

The first loop is used for digits starting from 1 to number of rows

The second loop is used for letters starting from 1 to number of columns

since rows and cols are not of the same type that's why we are converting the int type to string type

print(str(rows)+cols) counter will keep updating the columns A, B, C.....

rows= rows + 1 counter will keep updating the rows 1, 2, 3....

Code:

Please refer to the attached image.

Output:

Please enter the number of rows: 2

Please enter the number of columns: 3

1A

1B

1C

2A

2B

2C

A turbine operates at steady state, and experiences a heat loss. 1.1 kg/s of water flows through the system. The inlet is mainta
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

\dot W_{out} = 399.47\,kW

Explanation:

The turbine is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics:

-\dot Q_{out} -\dot W_{out} + \dot m\cdot (h_{in}-h_{out}) = 0

The work done by the turbine is:

\dot W_{out} = \dot m \cdot (h_{in}-h_{out})-\dot Q_{out}

The properties of the water are obtained from property tables:

Inlet (Superheated Steam)

P = 10\,MPa

T = 520\,^{\textdegree}C

h = 3425.9\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

Outlet (Superheated Steam)

P = 1\,MPa

T = 280\,^{\textdegree}C

h = 3008.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

The work output is:

\dot W_{out} = \left(1.1\,\frac{kg}{s}\right)\cdot \left(3425.9\,\frac{kJ}{kg} -3008.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}\right) - 60\,kW

\dot W_{out} = 399.47\,kW

Which of the following can effect LRO?
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The lunar radiation environment, allowing scientists to determine potential impacts to astronauts and other life. It also will test models on the effects of radiation and measure radiation absorption by a type of plastic that is like human tissue. The results could aid in the development of protective technologies to help keep future lunar crew members safe. CRaTER was built and developed by Boston University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston.
