A Venturi tube may be used as a fluid flowmeter. Suppose the device is used at a service station to measure the flow rate of gas

oline (p = 660 kg/m³) through a hose having an outlet radius of 2.80 cm. If the difference in pressure is measured to be P1 - P2 = 1.20 kPa and the radius of the inlet tube to the meter is 1.40 cm.(a) Find the speed of the gasoline as it leaves the hose.(b) Find the fluid flow rate in cubic meters per second.

Answer

given,

flow rate = p = 660 kg/m³

outer radius = 2.8 cm

P₁ - P₂ = 1.20 k Pa

inlet radius = 1.40 cm

using continuity equation

 A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

 π r₁² v₁ = π r₁² v₂

 v_1= \dfrac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} v_2

 v_1= \dfrac{1.4^2}{2.8^2} v_2

 v_1= 0.25 v_2

Applying Bernoulli's equation

 \Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

 \Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-(0.25 v_2)^2)

 \Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 (1 - 0.0625)

 v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\Delta P}{\rho(1 - 0.0625)}}

 v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1200}{660 \times(1 - 0.0625)}}

       v₂ = 1.97 m/s

b) fluid flow rate

Q = A₂ V₂

Q = π (0.014)²  x 1.97

Q = 1.21 x 10⁻³ m³/s

24) a plane takes off at 7:00 pm and lands at 1:00 am after travelling a distance of 4818km. what is the minimum number of times
12345 [234]

Answer:

Twice

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Time between 7:00 PM and 1:00 AM: 6 hours

Distance: 4818km

Since the distance is 4818km, and the time is 6 hours, you divide 4818 by 6.

803.0000015999 km/h.

The average speed is 803 km/h

Which considering the ideal case scenario if the plane starts at 0 reaches the speed of 803 and the end reduces its speed from 803 to 0. This means we have come across the value of 800 at least twice. Hence, the plane was travelling at a speed of 800 km/h at least 2 times.

When the cornea and lens of the eye do not properly focus
frutty [35]

Answer:

When there is nearsightedness or myopia

Explanation:

As, in myopia the image is formed in front of the retina.

Which makes things looking at things near very easy, but looking at far away things very difficult.

So concave lens makes things look bigger, so therefore, it is used during myopia, to make things look bigger when they are far away

What is the volume of a cone with a height of 27 cm
JulijaS [17]

Explanation:

→ Volume of cone = πr² × h/3

Here,

  • Radius (r) = 13 cm
  • Height (h) = 27 cm

→ Volume of cone = π(13)² × 27/3 cm³

→ Volume of cone = 169π × 9 cm³

→ Volume of cone = 1521π cm³

→ Volume of cone = 1521 × 22/7 cm³

→ Volume of cone = 33462/7 cm³

→ <u>Volume of cone = 4780.28 cm³</u>

The main reason that most professional research telescopes are reflectors is that
GuDViN [60]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Large mirrors are easier to build than large lenses.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes have a number of advantages as compared to refracting telescopes and other types of telescopes. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes do not suffer from chromatic aberration because all wavelengths will reflect off the mirror in the same way. The support for the objective mirror is all along the back side so they can be made very large.</u></em>
  • Additionally, reflector telescopes are cheaper to make than refractors of the same size. Also since in reflector telescopes light is reflecting off the objective, rather than passing through it, only one side of the reflector telescope's objective needs to be perfect.

Find the unit vector in the direction of vector B=4i+2j-5k​
solmaris [256]

Answer:

\frac{4}{\sqrt{45} } i\,+\frac{2}{\sqrt{45} } j-\frac{5}{\sqrt{45} } k

Explanation:

for the unit vector, we need to divide the given vector by its norm, because it should be in the SAME direction as the original vector, but of magnitude "1".

We notice that the norm of the given vector is:

\sqrt{4^2+2^2+(-5)^2} =\sqrt{45}

Then, the unit vector becomes:

\frac{4}{\sqrt{45} } i\,+\frac{2}{\sqrt{45} } j-\frac{5}{\sqrt{45} } k
