A pipe leads from a storage tank on the roof of a building to the ground floor. The absolute pressure of the water in the storag

e tank where it connects to the pipe is 3.0×105Pa, the pipe has a radius of 1.0 cm where it connects to the storage tank, and the speed of flow in this pipe is 1.6 m/s. The pipe on the ground floor has a radius of 0.50 cm and is 9.0 m below the storage tank. Find the speed of flow in the pipe on the ground floor.

Answer:

6.4 m/s

Explanation:

From the equation of continuity

A1V1=A2V2 where A1 and V1 are area and velocity of inlet respectively while A2 and V2 are the area and velocity of outlet respectively

A1=\pi (r1)^{2}

A2=\pi (r2)^{2}

where r1 and r2 are radius of inlet and outlet respectively

v1 is given as 1.6 m/s

Therefore

\pi (0.01)^{2}\times 1.6 = \pi (0.005)^{2}v2

V2=\frac {\pi (0.01)^{2}\times 1.6}{\pi (0.005)^{2}}=6.4 m/s

Q4. (20 points) For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 271 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 1
babunello [35]

Answer:

a) P = 86720 N

b) L = 131.2983 mm

Explanation:

σ = 271 MPa = 271*10⁶ Pa

E = 119 GPa = 119*10⁹ Pa

A = 320 mm² = (320 mm²)(1 m² / 10⁶ mm²) = 3.2*10⁻⁴ m²

a) P = ?

We can apply the equation

σ = P / A     ⇒    P = σ*A = (271*10⁶ Pa)(3.2*10⁻⁴ m²) = 86720 N

b) L₀ = 131 mm = 0.131 m

We can get ΔL applying the following formula (Hooke's Law):

ΔL = (P*L₀) / (A*E)    ⇒  ΔL = (86720 N*0.131 m) / (3.2*10⁻⁴ m²*119*10⁹ Pa)

⇒  ΔL = 2.9832*10⁻⁴ m = 0.2983 mm

Finally we obtain

L = L₀ + ΔL = 131 mm + 0.2983 mm = 131.2983 mm

how is friction losses in pipes reduced? a. decrease the pipe diameter b. increase the length of the pipes. c. decrease the leng
Citrus2011 [14]

Friction losses in pipes can be reduced by decreasing the length of the pipes, reducing the surface roughness of the pipes, and increasing the pipe diameter. Thus, options (c),(e), and (f) hold correct answers.

Friction loss is a measure of the amount of energy a piping system loses because flowing fluids meet resistance. As fluids flow through the pipes, they carry energy with them. Unfortunately, whenever there is resistance to the flow rate, it diverts fluids, and energy escapes. These opposing forces result in friction loss in pipes.

Friction loss in pipes can decrease the efficiency of the functions of pipes. These are a few ways by which friction loss in pipes can be reduced and the efficiency of the piping system can be boosted:

  • <u><em>Decrease the length of the pipes</em></u>: By decreasing pipe lengths and avoiding the use of sharp turns, fittings, and tees, whenever possible result in a more natural path for fluids to flow.
  • <u><em>Reduce the surface roughness of the pipes</em></u>:  By reducing the interior surface roughness of pipes, a smooth and clearer path is provided for liquids to flow.
  • <u><em>Increase the pipe diameter: </em></u>By widening the diameters of pipes, it is ensured that fluids squeeze through pipes easily.

When a retaining structure moves towards the soil backfill, the stress condition is called:__________.
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

(C) passive state.

Explanation:

The earth pressure is the pressure exerted by the soil on the shoring system. They are three types of earth pressure which are:

a) Rest state: In this state, the retaining wall is stationary, this makes the lateral stress to be zero.

b) Active state: In this state, the wall moves away from the back fill, this leads to an internal resistance. Hence the active earth pressure is less than earth pressure at rest

c) Passive state: In this state the wall is pushed towards the back fill, this leads to shearing resistance. Hence, the passive earth pressure is greater than earth pressure at rest

A vertical piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.2 m3 of air at 20°C. The mass of the piston is such that it maintains a c
Ann [662]

Answer:

Amount of air left in the cylinder=m_{2}=0.357 Kg

The amount of heat transfer=Q=0

Explanation:

Given

Initial pressure=P1=300 KPa

Initial volume=V1=0.2m^{3}

Initial temperature=T_{1}=20 C

Final Volume=V_{2}=0.1 m^{3}

Using gas equation

m_{1}=((P_{1}*V_{1})/(R*T_{1}))

m1==(300*0.2)/(.287*293)

m1=0.714 Kg

Similarly

m2=(P2*V2)/R*T2

m2=(300*0.1)/(0.287*293)

m2=0.357 Kg

Now calculate mass of air left,where me is the mass of air left.

me=m2-m1

me=0.715-0.357

mass of air left=me=0.357 Kg

To find heat transfer we need to apply energy balance equation.

Q=(m_{e}*h_{e})+(m_{2}*h_{2})-(m_{1}*h_{1})

Where me=m1-m2

And as the temperature remains constant,hence the enthalpy also remains constant.

h1=h2=he=h

Q=(me-(m1-m2))*h

me=m1-me

Thus heat transfer=Q=0

lana [24]

Answer:

Take a 3 to 8 decoder with active low outputs

Assuming you are familiar with the functioning of decoders,

The three inputs of decoder of course are the first, second and the carry bit which you feed to the subtractor.

Next we examine the truth table of the full subtractor i formatted in the picture.

Then write the minterms for the difference output and borrow output from the given truth table picture I have mentioned before!!

Explanation:

hopi it to help you!!
