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.

A_____ transducer is a device that can convert an electronic controller output signal into a standard pneumatic output. A. pneum
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is

option C. current to pneumatic (V/P)

Explanation:

A current to pneumatic controller is  basically used to receive an electronic signal from a controller and converts it further into a standard pneumatic output signal which is further used to operate a positioner or control valve. These devices are reliable, robust and accurate.

Though Voltage and current to pressure transducers are collectively called as electro pneumatic tranducers and the only electronic feature to control output pressure in them is the coil.

A spherical gas container made of steel has a(n) 17-ft outer diameter and a wall thickness of 0.375 in. Knowing that the interna
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Maximum Normal Stress σ = 8.16 Ksi

Maximum Shearing Stress τ = 4.08 Ksi

Explanation:

Outer diameter of spherical container D = 17 ft

Convert feet to inches D = 17 x 12 in = 204 inches

Wall thickness t = 0.375 in

Internal Pressure P = 60 Psi

Maximum Normal Stress σ = PD / 4t

σ = PD / 4t

σ = (60 psi x 204 in) / (4 x 0.375 in)

σ = 12,240 / 1.5

σ = 8,160 P/in

σ = 8.16 Ksi

Maximum Shearing Stress τ = PD / 8t

τ = PD / 8t

τ = (60 psi x 204 in) / (8 x 0.375 in)

τ = 12,240 / 3

τ = 4,080 P/in

τ = 4.08 Ksi

Airida [17]

Answer:

As the x-values go to negative infinity, the function’s values go to positive infinity.

Explanation:

if the ans choices are:

As the x-values go to negative infinity, the function’s values go to negative infinity.

As the x-values go to negative infinity, the function’s values go to positive infinity.

As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function’s values go to negative infinity.

As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function’s values go to zero.

NARA [144]

Answer:

len(word2) >= len(word1) and len(word2) >= len(word3):

Question with blank is below

def longest_word(word1,word2,word3):

   if len(word1) >= len(word2) and len(word1) >= len(word3):

       word = word1

   elif _________________________________________

       word = word2

   else:

       word = word3

   return word

print(longest_word("chair","couch","table"))

print(longest_word("bed","bath","beyond"))

print(longest_word("laptop","notebook","desktop"))

print(longest_word("hi","cat","Cow"))

Explanation

In line 1 of the code word1, word2, and word3 are the parameters used to for the defining the longest_word function. They will be replaced by 3 words to be compared. The code that is filled in the blank is len(word2) >= len(word1) and len(word2) >= len(word3): It is a conditional statement that is true only if the number of characters in the string of word2 is greater than or equal to word1 and word2 is greater than that of word3 .
