Discuss the trends in reaction forces versus jet velocity. Is the trend consistent with the theory? Does it make sense?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The rate of fluid motion(Jet Velocity) exert a force on the object in contact with it. This force is also knowns as reactions forces.

In theory, this is related to Newton Second of motion which States that:

The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to impressed force.

This makes sense and it is consistent with theory. Detailed explanation below:

Explanation:

A jet which can be illustrated as a moving fluid, in natural or artificial systems, may exert forces on objects in contact with it.

To analyze fluid motion, a finite region of the fluid (control volume) is usually selected, and the gross effects of the flow, such as its force or torque on an object, is determined by calculating the net mass rate that flows into and out of the control volume.

These forces can be determined, as in solid mechanics, by the use of Newton’s second law, or by the momentum equation(Consistent with the theory). The force exerted by a jet of fluid on a flat or curve surface can be resolved by applying the momentum equation. The study of these forces is essential to the study of fluid mechanics and hydraulic machinery.

In practice, Engineers and designers use the momentum equation to accurately calculate the force that moving fluid may exert on a solid body. For example, in hydropower plants, turbines are utilized to generate electricity. Turbines rotate due to force exerted by one or more water jets that are directed tangentially onto the turbine’s vanes or buckets. The impact of the water on the vanes generates a torque on the wheel, causing it to rotate and to generate electricity.

How Do Solar Engineers Help Our Everyday Life? <br> (2 or more sentences please)
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Solar engineers plan, design, and implement solar energy projects. They may manage anything from large-scale municipal projects to home rooftop installations. He or she may also oversee or manage implementation of the plan. Solar engineers may also need to report on the efficiency, cost, and safety of the project.

A rigid tank having 25 m3 volume initially contains air having a density of 1.25 kg/m3, then more air is supplied to the tank fr
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

\Delta m = 102.25\,kg

Explanation:

The mass inside the rigid tank before the high pressure stream enters is:

m_{o} = \rho_{air}\cdot V_{tank}

m_{o} = (1.25\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})

m_{o} = 31.25\,kg

The final mass inside the rigid tank is:

m_{f} = \rho \cdot V_{tank}

m_{f} = (5.34\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})

m_{f}= 133.5\,kg

The supplied air mass is:

\Delta m = m_{f}-m_{o}

\Delta m = 133.5\,kg-31.25\,kg

\Delta m = 102.25\,kg

The amplitudes of the displacement and acceleration of an unbalanced motor were measured to be 0.15 mm and 0.6 g, respectively.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

N=945.76 RPM

Explanation:

Given that

A= 0.15 m

Acceleration = 0.6 g

a=0.6 x 9.81 m/s²

a= 5.886 m/s²

We know that acceleration a given as

a = ω² A

ω=Angular speed

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.6\times 9.81}{0.6\times 10^{-3}}}

 ω=99.04 rad/s

We know that

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi N}{60}\\\\N=\dfrac{60\times \omega}{2\pi }

N=\dfrac{60\times 99.04}{2\pi }

N=945.76 RPM

Therefore the speed of the motor will be 945.76 RPM.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

See attached document for complete answers and also follow the step by step explanation to get given parameters

Explanation:

Given that:

In a tempering process, glass plate, which is initially at a uniform temperature Ti, is cooled by suddenly reducing the temperature of both surfaces to Ts. The plate is 10 mm thick, and the glass has a thermal diffusivity of 6 × 10−7 m2/s. (a) How long will it take for the midplane temperature to achieve 75% of its maximum possible temperature reduction? (b) If (Ti − Ts) = 300°C, what is the maximum temperature gradient in the glass at the time calculated in part (a)? (c) Plot the temperature distribution within the glass plate at t = 10s
