If a gas has an absolute pressure of 319 kPa, its gage pressure is A. 419 kPa. B. 219 kPa. C. 439 kPa. D. 199 kPa.

1 answer:

4 0

Absolute pressure is the sum of gauge pressure and the atmospheric pressure. Gauge pressure is the pressure measured above atmospheric. Calculations are as follows:
<span>
319 kPa = Gauge pressure + 101.325 kPa
</span><span>
Gauge pressure = 217.68 kPa</span>

Water vapor enters a turbine operating at steady state at 500°C, 40 bar, with a velocity of 200 m/s, and expands adiabatically t

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

W = 5701 KW

Explanation:

From the question let inlet be labelled as point 1 and exit as point 2, for the fluid steam, we can get the following;

Inlet (1): P1 = 40 bar ; T1 = 500°C and V1 = 200 m/s

Exit(2) : At saturated vapour; P2 = 0.8 bar and V2 = 150 m/s

Volumetric flow rate = 15 m^(3)/s

Now, to solve this question, we assume constant average values, steeady flow and adiabatic flow.

Specific volume for steam at P2 = 0.8 bar in the saturated vapour state can be gotten from saturated steam tables(find a sample of the table attached to this answer).

So from the table,

v2 = 2.087 m^(3)/kg

Now, mass flow rate (m) = (AV) /v

Where AV is the volumetric flow rate.

Thus, the mass flow rate at exit could be calculated as;

m = 15/(2.087) = 7.17 kg/s

We also know energy equation could be defined as;

Q-W = m[(h1 - h2) + {(V2(^2) - (V1(^2)} /2)} + g(Z2 - Z1)]

Since the flow is adiabatic, potential energy can be taken to be zero. Therefore, we get;

-W = m[(h2 - h1) + {(V2(^2) - (V1(^2)} /2)}

From, table 2, i attached , at P1 = 40 bar and T1 = 500°C; specific enthalpy was calculated to be h1 = 3445.3 KJ/Kg

Likewise, at P2 = 0.8 bar; from the table, we get specific enthalpy as;

h2 = 2665.8 KJ/Kg

So we now calculate power developed;

W = - 7.17 [(2665.8 - 3445.3) + {(150^(2) - 200^(2))/2000 = 5701KW

Since the sign is not negative but positive, it means that the power is developed from the system.

A 530-g squirrel with a surface area of 935 cm2 falls from a 4.4-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use the

Agata [3.3K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of squirrel,m=530 g= $\frac{530}{1000}=0.530 kg$

1kg=1000 g

Area=A= $935 cm^2=935\times 10^{-4} m^2$

$1 cm^2=10^{-4} m^2$

Height,h=4.4 m

C=1

$\rho=1.21 kg/m^3$

Width of rectangular prism,b=11.6 cm= $\frac{11.6}{100}=0.116 m$

1 m=100 cm

Length,l=23.2 cm= $0.232 m$

Area= $l\times b=0.116\times 0.232=0.0269 m^2$

Terminal velocity, $v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho CA}}$

Where $g=9.8 m/s^2$

Using the formula

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.530\times 9.8}{1.21\times 1\times 0.0269}}$

$v_t=17.86 m/s$

The velocity of person, $v=\sqrt{2gh}$

Using the formula

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 4.4}$

$v=9.29 m/s$

A 5.0-m long, 12-kg uniform ladder rests against a smooth vertical wall with the bottom of the ladder 3.0 m from the wall. the c

Semmy [17]

First establish the summation of the forces acting int the ladder

Forces in the x direction Fx = 0 = force of friction (Ff) – normal force in the wall(n2)

Forces in the y direction Fy =0 = normal force in floor (n1) – (12*9.81) –( 60*9.81)

So n1 = 706.32 N

Since Ff = un1 = 0.28*706.32 = 197,77 N = n2

Torque balance along the bottom of the ladder = 0 = n2(4 m) – (12*9.81*2.5 m) – (60*9.81 *x m)

X = 0.844 m

5/ 3 = h/ 0.844

H = 1.4 m can the 60 kg person climb berfore the ladder will slip

jekas [21]

Answer:

The right solution is "126 Psi".

Explanation:

The given values are:

P₁ = 130 psig

i.e.,

= $130\times 6.894$

= $896.22 \ Kpa$

or,

= $896.22\times 10^3 \ Pa$

Z₂ = 10ft

= 3.05 m

$\delta$ = 1000 kg/m³

According to the question,

Z₁ = 0

V₁ = V₂

As we know,

⇒ $\frac{P_1}{\delta_g} +\frac{V_1^2}{2g} +Z_1=\frac{P_2}{\delta_g} +\frac{V_2^2}{2g} +Z_2$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $\frac{P_1}{\delta_g} +0+0=\frac{P_2}{\delta_g} +0+Z_2$

⇒ $\frac{896.22\times 10^3}{1000\times 9.8} =\frac{P_2}{1000\times 9.8} +3.05$

⇒ $P_2=866330 \ P_a$

i.e.,

⇒ $=866330\times 0.000145$

⇒ $=126 \ Psi$
