Answer:

The minimum particle diameter that is removed at 85% is 1.474 * 10 ^⁻4 meters.

Solution

Given:

Length = 48 m

Width = 12 m

Depth = 3m

Flow rate = 4 m 3 /s

Water density = 10 3 kg/m 3

Dynamic viscosity = 1.30710 -3 N.sec/m

Now,

At the minimum particular diameter it is stated as follows:

The Reynolds number= 0.1

Thus,

0.1 =ρVTD/μ

VT = Dp² ( ρp- ρ) g/ 10μ²

Where

gn = The case/issue of sedimentation

VT = Terminal velocity

So,

0.1 = Dp³ ( ρp- ρ) g/ 10μ²

This becomes,

0.1 = 1000 * dp³ (1100-1000) g 0.1/ 10 *(1.307 * 10 ^⁻3)²

= 3.074 * 10 ^⁻6 = dp³ (.g01 * 10^6)

dp³=3.1343 * 10 ^⁻12

Dp minimum= 1.474 * 10 ^⁻4 meters.

What is the first test you should do when checking the charging system?
yan [13]

Answer:

Connect the test light in series with the negative post, and start pulling feed wires. The first to check is the heavy charging wire from the alternator. A bad or leaky diode in an alternator is a very common source of overnight battery drain. Connect wires one at a time to see what lead is drawing current.

A cylindrical tank is required to contain a gage pressure 560 kPa . The tank is to be made of A516 grade 60 steel with a maximum
adoni [48]

Answer:

5.6 mm

Explanation:

Given that:

A cylindrical tank is required to contain a:

Gage Pressure P = 560 kPa

Allowable normal stress \sigma = 150 MPa = 150000 Kpa.

The inner diameter of the tank = 3 m

In a closed cylinder  there exist both the circumferential stress and the longitudinal stress.

Circumferential stress \sigma = \dfrac{pd}{2t}

Making thickness t the subject; we have

t = \dfrac{pd}{2* \sigma}

t = \dfrac{560000*3}{2*150000000}

t = 0.0056 m

t = 5.6 mm

For longitudinal stress.

\sigma = \dfrac{pd}{4t}

t= \dfrac{pd}{4*\sigma }

t = \dfrac{560000*3}{4*150000000}

t = 0.0028  mm

t = 2.8 mm

From the above circumferential stress and longitudinal stress; the stress with the higher value will be considered ; which is circumferential stress and it's minimum value  with the maximum thickness = 5.6 mm
