Please define the coefficient of thermal expansion?

Engineering
1 answer:
Vikki [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The coefficient of thermal expansion tells us how much a material can expand due to heat.

Explanation:

Thermal expansion occurs when a material is subjected to heat and changes it's shape, area and volume as a result of that heat. How much that material changes is dependent on it's coefficient of thermal expansion.

Different materials have different coefficients of thermal expansion (i.e. It is a material property and differs from one material to the next). It is important to understand how materials behave when heated, especially for engineering applications when a change in dimension might pose a problem or risk (eg. building large structures).

The water level in a tank is 20 m above the ground. A hose is connected to the bottom of the tank, and the nozzle at the end of
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

P_{pump}= 68600Pa

Explanation:

We understand that the sum of the pressures in the tank and the pump is equal to that of the Nozzle,

In this way,

P_{tank} + P_{pump} = P_{nozzle}

For the pressure we also know that it is given by

P=\rho gh

\rho gh_1 + P_{pump} = \rho gh_2

So,

P_{pump} = \rho g(h2 - h1)

P_{pump}= 1000*9.8(27-20)

P_{pump}= 68600Pa

How can I find the quotient of 27 divided 91.8
gayaneshka [121]
Step 1:
Start by setting it up with the divisor 8 on the left side and the dividend 27 on the right side like this:

8 ⟌ 2 7

Step 2:
The divisor (8) goes into the first digit of the dividend (2), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

0
8 ⟌ 2 7

Step 3:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (8 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.

0
8 ⟌ 2 7
0

Step 4:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (2 - 0 = 2) and write the answer below.

0
8 ⟌ 2 7
- 0
2

Step 5:
Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (7) like this:

0
8 ⟌ 2 7
- 0
2 7

Step 6:
The divisor (8) goes into the bottom number (27), 3 time(s). Therefore, put 3 on top:

0 3
8 ⟌ 2 7
- 0
2 7

Step 7:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (8 x 3 = 24) and write that answer at the bottom:

0 3
8 ⟌ 2 7
- 0
2 7
2 4

Step 8:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (27 - 24 = 3) and write the answer at the bottom.

0 3
8 ⟌ 2 7
- 0
2 7
- 2 4
3

You are done, because there are no more digits to move down from the dividend.

The answer is the top number and the remainder is the bottom number.

Therefore, the answer to 27 divided by 8 calculated using Long Division is:

Which of the following statements about pitot-static systems is FALSE? a). A pitot probe measures the Total Pressure of the free
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Pitot tube:

  Pitot tube is a device which is used to measure the velocity of flow by measuring pressure difference between the points.

As we know that stagnation pressure is the summation of dynamic and static pressure.

Stagnation pressure = Static pressure + Dynamic pressure

So

Dynamic pressure  = Stagnation pressure -  Static pressure

We know that dynamic pressure

P_{dynamic}=\dfrac{\rho V^2}{2}

On the other hand Pitot tube measure the dynamic pressure.

So option C is correct.

A storm sewer is carrying snow melt containing 1.2 g/L of sodium chloride into a small stream. The stream has a naturally occurr
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Given Data:

concentration of sewer Csewer = 1.2 g/L

converting into mg/L = Csewer = 1.2 g/L x 1000 mg/g = 1200 mg/L

flow rate of sewer Qsewer = 2000 L/min

concentration of sewer Cstream = 20 mg/L

flow rate of sewer Qstream = 2m3/s

converting Q into L/min = 2m3/s x 1000 x 60 = 120000 L/min
