A dipstick is (a direct,an indirect) measurement device

Which of the following is described as a way engineers can test and investigate how things should be under certain circumstances

goblinko [34]

Answer:

The option that is best described as a way engineers can test and investigate how things should be under certain circumstances is;

Modeling

Explanation:

Modeling is a tool an engineer can use for the physical representation of a system that will facilitate the definition, testing and analysis, communication, data generation, data verification and data validation of given concepts

Models also aid in setting specifications, supporting designs, and verification of a given system

Therefore, with modeling engineers can investigate the behavior of systems under given environmental conditions.

What is aviation? What is the difference between aviation and flight?

-Dominant- [34]

Aviation refers to flying using an aircraft, like an aeroplane. It also includes the activities and industries related to flight, such as air traffic control. The biggest of the many uses of aviation are in air travel and military aircraft . The main difference between aeronautics and aviation is their focus. Aeronautics involves the study of the science, design, and manufacture of flying vehicles while aviation involves flying or operating an aircraft and various activities surrounding mechanical flight and the aircraft industry

A 15.00 mL sample of a solution of H2SO4 of unknown concentration was titrated with 0.3200M NaOH. the titration required 21.30 m

natima [27]

Answer:

a. 0.4544 N

b. $5.112 \times 10^{-5 M}$

Explanation:

For computing the normality and molarity of the acid solution first we need to do the following calculations

The balanced reaction

$H_2SO_4 + 2NaOH = Na_2SO_4 + 2H_2O$

$NaOH\ Mass = Normality \times equivalent\ weight \times\ volume$

$= 0.3200 \times 40 g \times 21.30 mL \times 1L/1000mL$

= 0.27264 g

$NaOH\ mass = \frac{mass}{molecular\ weight}$

$= \frac{0.27264\ g}{40g/mol}$

= 0.006816 mol

Now

Moles of $H_2SO_4$ needed is

$= \frac{0.006816}{2}$

= 0.003408 mol

$Mass\ of\ H_2SO_4 = moles \times molecular\ weight$

$= 0.003408\ mol \times 98g/mol$

= 0.333984 g

Now based on the above calculation

a. Normality of acid is

$= \frac{acid\ mass}{equivalent\ weight \times volume}$

$= \frac{0.333984 g}{49 \times 0.015}$

= 0.4544 N

b. And, the acid solution molarity is

$= \frac{moles}{Volume}$

$= \frac{0.003408 mol}{15\ mL \times 1L/1000\ mL}$

= 0.00005112

= $5.112 \times 10^{-5 M}$

We simply applied the above formulas

Air enters a compressor steadily at the ambient conditions of 100 kPa and 22°C and leaves at 800 kPa. Heat is lost from the comp

telo118 [61]

Answer:

a) 358.8K

b) 181.1 kJ/kg.K

c) 0.0068 kJ/kg.K

Explanation:

Given:

P1 = 100kPa

P2= 800kPa

T1 = 22°C = 22+273 = 295K

q_out = 120 kJ/kg

∆S_air = 0.40 kJ/kg.k

T2 =??

a) Using the formula for change in entropy of air, we have:

∆S_air = $c_p In \frac{T_2}{T_1} - Rln \frac{P_2}{P_1}$

Let's take gas constant, Cp= 1.005 kJ/kg.K and R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K

Solving, we have:

[/tex] -0.40= (1.005)ln\frac{T_2}{295} ln\frac{800}{100}[/tex]

$-0.40= 1.005(ln T_2 - 5.68697)- 0.5968$

Solving for T2 we have:

$T_2 = 5.8828$

Taking the exponential on the equation (both sides), we have:

[/tex] T_2 = e^5^.^8^8^2^8 = 358.8K[/tex]

b) Work input to compressor:

$w_in = c_p(T_2 - T_1)+q_out$

$w_in = 1.005(358.8 - 295)+120$

= 184.1 kJ/kg

c) Entropy genered during this process, we use the expression;

Egen = ∆Eair + ∆Es

Where; Egen = generated entropy

∆Eair = Entropy change of air in compressor

∆Es = Entropy change in surrounding.

We need to first find ∆Es, since it is unknown.

Therefore ∆Es = $\frac{q_out}{T_1}$

$\frac{120kJ/kg.k}{295K}$

∆Es = 0.4068kJ/kg.k

Hence, entropy generated, Egen will be calculated as:

= -0.40 kJ/kg.K + 0.40608kJ/kg.K

= 0.0068kJ/kg.k

"At 195 miles long, and with 7,325 miles of coastline, the Chesapeake Bay is the largest and most complex estuary in the United

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

see explaination

Explanation:

Part a) Width of bay at Potomac River:

Given Data:

· Actual Width at Potomac River = 30 miles

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

In fluid mechanics models of real structures are prepared in simulation so that they can be analyzed accurately. A model is known to have simulation if model carries same geometric, kinematic and dynamic properties at a small scale.

Length of any part in model = Actual length x Lr

Hence,

Model Width of bay at Potomac River = 30 x 1/1000 = 0.03 miles

Since 1 mile = 5280 ft

Model Width of bay at Potomac River = 0.03 x 5280 = 158.4 ft

Part b) Model Length of bay bridge in model:

Given Data:

· Actual Length of bay bridge = 4.3 miles

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model Length = Actual Length x Lr = 4.3 x 1/1000 = 0.0043 miles

Since 1 mile = 5280 ft

Model Length in feet = 0.0043 x 5280 = 22.704 ft

Part c) Model Length of bay bridge in model:

Given Data:

· Model Area = 8 acre

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model Area = Actual Area x Lr x Lr

8 Model Area :: Actual Area =- (Lp)2 2 = 8,000,000 acre 1000

Since 1 square mile = 640 acre,

Actual Area in square miles = 8,000,000/640 = 12,500 square miles

Part d) Average and maximum depth of model:

Given Data:

· Actual Average depth = 28 ft

· Actual Maximum depth = 174 ft

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model average depth = Actual average depth x Lr = 28 x 1/1000 = 0.028 feet

Since 1 ft = 12 inch

Model average depth in inch = 0.028 x 12 = 0.336 in

Model maximum depth = Actual maximum depth x Lr = 174 x 1/1000 = 0.174 feet

Since 1 ft = 12 inch

Model maximum depth in inch = 0.174 x 12 = 2.088 in
