The flow rate on an arterial is 1,800 veh/h, evenly distributed over two lanes. If the average speed in these lanes is 40 mi/h,

what is the density in veh/h/ln?

Using

q = k*v,

where q = traffic flow rate, k = density, v = space mean speed.

so, 1800 = k x 40

so, k = 1800/40 = 45 veh/mie on two lanes,

so k = 45/2 = 22.5veh/h/in

What happens to the amperage draw of a condensing unit on a split AC system if the liquid line is restricted
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The amperage draw of the condensing unit will be low.

Explanation:

A condensing unit is made up of a compressor and condenser, while an evaporating unit is made up of an evaporator coil.

A split AC system is a type of air conditioner system that has a condensing unit which is placed separately from the evaporative coil unit. Then the two units are connected to each other via a copper tube containing refrigerants.

The liquid line connects the condenser to the evaporator, and if this liquid line is restricted, the amp consumed by the condensing unit will be low.

A student checks her car's tyre air pressure at a petrol station and finds it is 31 psi. Re-express this as an absolute pressure
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Absolute Pressure=315.06256 kPa

Explanation:

Gauge pressure= 31 psi

Atmospheric Pressure at Sea level= 1 atm=101.325 kPa

1\ psi=6.89476\ kPa\\\Rightarrow 31\ psi=31\times 6.89476\\\Rightarrow 31\ psi=213.73756\ kPa=Gauge\ Pressure\\Absolute\ Pressure=Gauge\ Pressure+Atmospheric\ Pressure\\\Rightarrow Absolute\ Pressure=213.73756+101.325\\\therefore Absolute\ Pressure=315.06256\ kPa

Consider a mixing tank with a volume of 4 m3. Glycerinflows into a mixing tank through pipe A with an average velocity of 6 m/s,
Svetach [21]

This question is incomplete, the complete question as well as the missing diagram is uploaded below;

Consider a mixing tank with a volume of 4 m³. Glycerin flows into a mixing tank through pipe A with an average velocity of 6 m/s, and oil flow into the tank through pipe B at 3 m/s. Determine the average density of the mixture that flows out through the pipe at C. Assume uniform mixing of the fluids occurs within the 4 m³ tank.

Take p_o = 880 kg/m³ and p_{glycerol = 1260 kg/m³    

 

Answer:

the average density of the mixture that flows out through the pipe at C is 1167.8 kg/m³  

Explanation:

Given that;

Inlet velocity of Glycerin, V_A = 6 m/s

Inlet velocity of oil, V_B = 3 m/s  

Density velocity of glycerin, p_{glycerol = 1260 kg/m³

Density velocity of glycerin, Take p_o = 880 kg/m³

Volume of tank V = 4 m

from the diagram;

Diameter of glycerin pipe, d_A = 100 mm = 0.1 m

Diameter of oil pipe, d_B = 80 mm = 0.08 m

Diameter of outlet pipe d_C = 120 mm = 0.12 m

Now, Appling the discharge flow equation;

Q_A + Q_B = Q_C

A_Av_A + A_Bv_B = A_Cv_C

π/4 × (d_A)²v_A + π/4 × (d_B )²v_B = π/4 × (d_C)²v_C

we substitute

π/4 × (0.1 )² × 6 + π/4 × (0.08 )² × 3 = π/4 × (0.12)²v_C

0.04712 + 0.0150796 = 0.0113097v_C

0.0621996 = 0.0113097v_C

v_C = 0.0621996 / 0.0113097

v_C  = 5.5 m/s

Now we apply the mass flow rate condition

m_A + m_B = m_C

p_{glycerin}A_Av_A + p_0A_Bv_B = pA_Cv_C  

so we substitute

1260 × π/4 × (0.1 )² × 6 + 880 × π/4 × (0.08 )² × 3 = p × π/4 × (0.12)² × 5.5

1260 × 0.04712 + 880 × 0.0150796 = p × 0.06220335

59.3712 + 13.27 = 0.06220335p  

72.6412 = 0.06220335p    

p = 72.6412 / 0.06220335

p =  1167.8 kg/m³  

Therefore, the average density of the mixture that flows out through the pipe at C is 1167.8 kg/m³
