A water agency stated that waterlines cannot have water flowing faster than 8 ft/s. What is the minimum standard pipe diameter t

hat can transport 1750 gal/min without exceeding this limit?

Lina20 [59]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The minimum standard diameter is 0.787 ft

Explanation:

Speed = 8 ft/s

Volumetric flow rate = 1750 gal/min = 1750 gal/min × 1 ft^3/7.481 gal × 1 min/60 s = 3.899 ft^3/s

Area of pipe (A) = volumetric flow rate ÷ speed = 3.899 ft^3/s ÷ 8 ft/s = 0.487 ft^2

Diameter of pipe = sqrt(4A/π) = sqrt(4×0.487/3.142) = sqrt(0.61999) = 0.787 ft

A Geostationary satellite has an 8kW RF transmission pointed at the earth. How much force does that induce on the spacecraft? (N
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The force induced on the aircraft is 2.60 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Power transmitted, P_{t} = 8 kW = 8000 W

Now, the force, F is given by:

P_{t} = Force(F)\times velocity(v) = Fv               (1)

where

v = velocity

Now,

For a geo-stationary satellite, the centripetal force, F_{c} is provided by the gravitational force, F_{G}:

F_{c} = F_{G}

\frac{mv^{2}}{R} = \frac{GM_{e}m{R^{2}}

Thus from the above, velocity comes out to be:

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{R}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{- 11}\times 5.979\times 10^{24}}{42166\times 10^{3}}} = 3075.36 m/ s

where

R = R_{e} + H

R = \sqrt{GM_{e}(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}}

where

G = Gravitational constant

T = Time period of rotation of Earth

R is calculated as 42166 km

Now, from eqn (1):

8000 = F\times 3075.36

F = 2.60 N

A tank with a volume of 8 m3 containing 4 m3 of 20% (by volume) NaOH solution is to be purged by adding pure water at a rate of
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The time necessary to purge 95% of the NaOH is 0.38 h

Explanation:

Given:

vfpure water(i) = 3 m³/h

vNaOH = 4 m³

xNaOH = 0.2

vfpure water(f) = 2 m³/h

pwater = 1000 kg/m³

pNaOH = 1220 kg/m³

The mass flow rate of the water is = 3 * 1000 = 3000 kg/h

The mass of NaOH in the solution is = 0.2 * 4 * 1220 = 976 kg

When the 95% of the NaOH is purged, thus the NaOH in outlet is = 0.95 * 976 = 927.2 kg

The volume of NaOH in outlet after time is = 927.2/1220 = 0.76 m³

The time required to purge the 95% of the NaOH is = 0.76/2 = 0.38 h

ehidna [41]

Answer: a. 0.4667

b. 0.4667 and C 0.0667

Explanation:

Given Data:

N = population size (10)

n = random selection (2)

r = number of observations = 7

Therefore

f(y) = ( r/y ) ( N - r / n - y ) / ( N /n )

When y = 1

f(1) = ( 7/1 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -1 ) / ( 10/2 )

= 7 / 15

= 0.4667

When y = 2

f(2) = ( 7/2 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -2 ) / ( 10/2 )

= 7 / 15

= 0.4667

When y = 0

f(0) = ( 7/0 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -0) / ( 10/2 )

= 1 / 15

= 0.0667

A certain printer requires that all of the following conditions be satisfied before it will send a HIGH to la microprocessor ack
Elza [17]

Answer:

D) AND gate.

Explanation:

Given that:

A certain printer requires that all of the following conditions be satisfied before it will send a HIGH to la microprocessor acknowledging that it is ready to print

These conditions are:

1. The printer's electronic circuits must be energized.

2. Paper must be loaded and ready to advance.

3. The printer must be "on line" with the microprocessor.

Now; if these conditions are met  the logic gate produces a HIGH output indicating readiness to print.

The objective here is to determine the basic logic gate used in this circuit.

Now;

For NOR gate;

NOR gate gives HIGH only when all the inputs are low. but the question states it that "a HIGH is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate". This already falsify NOR gate to be the right answer.

For NOT gate.

NOT gate operates with only one input and one output device but here; we are dealing with 3-input logic gate.

Similarly, OR gate gives output as a high if any one of the input signals is high but we need "a HIGH that is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate".

Finally, AND gate output is HIGH only when all the input signal is HIGH and vice versa, i.e AND gate output is LOW only when all the input signal is LOW. So AND gate satisfies the given criteria that; all the three conditions must be true for the final signal to be HIGH.
