A proposed piping and pumping system has 20-psig static pressure, and the piping discharges to atmosphere 160 ft above the pump.

If the piping friction loss is 20 ft head, the minimum pressure rating (psi) of the piping system is most nearly:
(A) 50
(B) 100
(C) 150
(D) 250

Answer: (B) 100

Explanation:

Given that;

Pstatic = 20 psig , hz = 160ft, hf = 20ft

Now total head will be;

T.h = hz + hf

T.h= 160 + 20

T.h = 180ft

Minimum pressure = Psatic + egh

we know that specific weight of water is 62.4 (lb/ft3)

so

P.min = (20 bf/in² ) + (62.4 b/ft³ × 180 fr

P.min = (20 bf/in² ) + ( 62.4 × 180 × 1 ft²/144 in²)

P.min = 20 + 78

P.min = 98 lbf/in²

Therefore the minimum pressure rating (psi) of the piping system is most nearly B) 100

1. If a Gear with a 3 inch Diameter is being turned by a Gear with a 6 inch Diameter, which Gear will rotate at a higher Rate?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

The smaller gear will rotate faster.

Explanation:

If a larger gear is driven by a smaller gear, the large gear will rotate slower than the smaller gear but will have a greater moment. For example, a low gear on a bike or car. If a smaller gear is driven by a larger gear, the smaller gear will rotate quicker than the larger gear but will have a smaller moment.

I hope this helps! :)

Consider a very long, cylindrical fin. The temperature of the fin at the tip and base are 25 °C and 50 °C, respectively. The dia
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

98°C

Explanation:

Total surface area of cylindrical fin = πr² + 2πrl , r = 0.015m; l= 0.1m; π =22/7

22/7*(0.015)² + 22/7*0.015*0.1 = 7.07 X 10∧-4 + 47.1 X 10∧-4 = (54.17 X 10∧-4)m²

Temperature change, t = (50 - 25)°C = 25°C = 298K

Hence, Temperature =  150 X (54.17 X 10∧-4) X 298/123 = 242.14/124 = 2.00K =

∴ Temperature change = 2.00K

But temperature, T= (373 - 2)K = 371 K

In °C = (371 - 273)K = 98°C
