Answer:

1.25 cm/day

Explanation:

An air thickness , (l) = 0.15 cm

Air Temperature =

(T_a)=20^0C = (20+273)K\\(T_a)=293K

Mass Diffusion coefficient (D) = 0.25cm^2/sec

If the air pressure (P_a) = 0.5 P_{sat}

We are to determine how fast will the water (H_2O) level drop in a day.

From the property of air  at T = 20° C

P_{sat} = 2.34 from saturated water properties.

The mass flow of (H_2O)  can be calculated as:

H_2O = \frac{D}{\phi} \delta C

where:

\delta C = \frac{P_{sat}*P_a}{RT }

R(constant) = 8.314 kJ/mol.K

\delta C = \frac{2.34*0.5}{8.314*293 }

\delta C = 4.803*10^{-4}\\ \delta C =0.48*10^{-3} mol/m^3\\ \delta C = 0.48*10^{-6} mol/cm^3

Since 1 mole = 18 cm ³ of water

0.48*10^{-6}mol/cm^3 will be: (0.48*10^{-6}mol/cm^3 *18)cm^3/cm^3

\delta C = 8.64 * 10^{-6}

Again:

H_2O = \frac{D}{\phi} \delta C

= \frac{0.25}{0.15}*8.69*10^{-6} \frac{cm^2/sec}{cm}

=1.4481*10^{-5} \frac{cm^2/sec}{cm}

Converting the above value to cm/day: we have:

1.448*10^{-5}*3600*24\frac{cm}{s}*\frac{s}{yr}*\frac{yr}{day}

= 1.25 cm/day

∴ the rate at which  the water level drop in a day = 1.25 cm/day

Oil with a density of 850 kg/m3 and kinematic viscosity of 0.00062 m2/s is being discharged by an 8-mm-diameter, 42-m-long horiz
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The flow rate of oil through the pipe is 1.513E-7 m³/s.

Explanation:

Given

Density, ρ = 850 kg/m³

Kinematic viscosity, v = 0.00062 m²/s

Diameter, d = 8-mm = 0.008m

Length of horizontal pipe, L = 42-m

Height, h = 4-m.

We'll solve the flow rate of oil through the pipe by using Hagen-Poiseuille equation.

This is given as

∆P = (128μLQ)/πD⁴

Where ∆P = Rate of change of pressure

μ = Dynamic Viscosity

Q = Flow rate of oil through the pipe.

First, we need to determine the dynamic viscosity and the rate of change in pressure

Dynamic Viscosity, μ = Density (ρ) * Kinematic viscosity (v)

μ = 850 kg/m³ * 0.00062 m²/s

μ = 0.527kg/ms

Then, we calculate the rate of change of pressure.

Assuming that the velocity through the pipe is so small;

∆P = Pressure at the bottom of the tank

∆P = Density (ρ) * Acceleration of gravity (g) * Height (h)

Taking g = 9.8m/s²

∆P = 850kg/m³ x 9.8m/s² x 4m

∆P = 33320N/m²

Recall that Hagen-Poiseuille equation.

∆P = (128μLQ)/πD⁴ --- Make Q the subject of formula

Q = (πD⁴P)/(128μL)

By substituton;

Q = (π * 0.008⁴ * 33320)/(128 * 0.527 * 42)

Q = 0.00000015133693643099

Q = 1.513E-7 m³/s.

Hence, the flow rate of oil through the pipe is 1.513E-7 m³/s.

The human body gets its energy via the combustion of blood sugar (glucose). if all of the chemical bond energy in 10 g of glucos
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s

Explanation:

given data

glucose = 10 g

mass = 100 kg

to find out

speed by mass attain

solution

we know glucose have 180 g molecular weight and

that 1 g glucose produce energy = 2816/180 × 10³ J

so here 10 g of glucose produce energy =  1.56 × 10^{5} J

so here energy release = 1/2 × mv²

1.56 × 10^{5}  = 1/2 × (100)v²

v² = 3.12 × 10³

and v = 55.86 m/s

so speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s
