The driving force for fluid flow is the pressure difference, and a pump operates by raising the pressure of a fluid (by converti

ng the mechanical shaft work to flow energy). A gasoline pump is measured to consume 3.8 kW of electric power when operating. If the pressure differential between the outlet and inlet of the pump is measured to be 7 kPa and the changes in velocity and elevation are negligible, determine the maximum possible volume flow rate of gasoline.

Answer:

The maximum possible volume flow of gasoline is 0.543 m^3/s

Explanation:

Power = pressure differential × volume flow rate

Power = 3.8 kW

Pressure differential = 7 kPa

Volume flow rate = power ÷ pressure differential = 3.8 ÷ 7 = 0.543 m^3/s

What is the purpose of having a ventilation system on board a motorized vessel?.
chubhunter [2.5K]

The purpose of having a ventilation system on board a motorized vessel is : To remove flammable gas from a vessel to avoid explosions.

<h3>Meaning of ventilation system</h3>

A ventilation system can be defined as a system that allows for removal of gases from a vessel to the atmosphere.

A Ventilation system is very important in every motorized vessel because they help to eliminate or remove flammable gases that are dangerous and are liable to explode when held in a large amount in the engine.

In conclusion, The purpose of having a ventilation system on board a motorized vessel is to remove flammable gas from a vessel their by avoiding explosions.

A homeowner consumes 260 kWh of energy in July when the family is on vacation most of the time. Determine the average cost per k
Llana [10]

Answer:

16.2 cents

Explanation:

Given that a homeowner consumes 260 kWh of energy in July when the family is on vacation most of the time.

Where Base monthly charge of $10.00. First 100 kWh per month at 16 cents/kWh. Next 200 kWh per month at 10 cents/kWh. Over 300 kWh per month at 6 cents/kWh.

For the first 100 kWh:

16 cent × 100 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars

Since 1 dollar = 100 cents

For the remaining energy:

260 - 100 = 160 kwh

10 cents × 160 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars

The total cost = 10 + 16 + 16 = 42 dollars

Note that the base monthly of 10 dollars is added.

The cost of 260 kWh of energy consumption in July is 42 dollars

To determine the average cost per kWh for the month of July, divide the total cost by the total energy consumed.

That is, 42 / 260 = 0.1615 dollars

Convert it to cents by multiplying the result by 100.

0.1615 × 100 = 16.15 cents

Approximately 16.2 cents

A person walks into a refrigerated warehouse with head uncovered. Model the head as a 25- cm diameter sphere at 35°C with a surf

Answer:

Hello some parts of your question is missing below is the missing part

Convection coefficient = 11 w/m^2. °c

answer : 44.83 watts

Explanation:

Given data :

surface emissivity ( ε )= 0.95

head ( sphere) diameter( D )  = 0.25 m

Temperature of sphere( T )  = 35° C

Temperature of surrounding ( T∞ )  = 25°C

Temperature of surrounding surface ( Ts ) = 15°C

б  = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

Determine the total rate of heat loss

First we calculate the surface area of the sphere

As = \pi D^{2}  

= \pi * 0.25^2 =  0.2 m^2

next we calculate heat loss due to radiation

Qrad = ε * б * As( T^{4} - T^{4} _{s} )  ---- ( 1 )

where ;

ε = 0.95

б = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

As = 0.2 m^2

T = 35 + 273 = 308 k

Ts = 15 + 273 = 288 k

input values into equation 1

Qrad = 0.95 * ( 5.67 * 10^-8 ) * 0.2 ( (308)^4 - ( 288)^4 )

         = 22.83  watts

Qrad ( heat loss due to radiation ) = 22.83 watts

calculate the heat loss due to convection

Qconv = h* As ( ΔT )

           = 11*0.2 ( 35 -25 )  = 22 watts

Hence total rate of heat loss

=  22 + 22.83

= 44.83 watts
