: During a heavy rainstorm, water from a parking lot completely fills an 18-in.- diameter, smooth, concrete storm sewer. If the

flowrate is 10 ft3/s, determine the pressure drop in a 100-ft. horizontal section of the pipe. Repeat the problem if there is a 2-ft. change in elevation of the pipe per 100 ft. of its length.

Answer

diameter of parking lot = 18 in

flowrate = 10 ft³/s

pressure drop = 100 ft

using general equation

\dfrac{P_1}{\gamma}+\dfrac{v_1^2}{2g}+Z_1 = \dfrac{P_2{\gamma} + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2g} + Z_2 +\dfrac{fLV^2}{2\rho D}

V = \dfrac{Q}{A} = \dfrac{10}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(\dfrac{18}{12})^2} = 5.66\ ft/s

\Delta P = \gamma (Z_2-Z_1) +\dfrac{fLV^2}{2\rho D}

taking f = 0.0185

at Z₁ = Z₂

\Delta P = \dfrac{0.0185 \times 100\times 1.94\times 5.66^2}{2\dfrac{18}{12} (2)}

ΔP = 0.266 psi

b) when flow is uphill z₂-z₁ = 2

\Delta P =62.4\times 2 \times \dfrac{1}{144} +0.266

\Delta P= 1.13\ psi

c) When flow is downhill  z₂-z₁ = -2

\Delta P =62.4\times 2 \times \dfrac{1}{144} +0.266

\Delta P=-0.601\ psi

Technician A says the final drive assembly always has a gear ratio of 1:1. Technician B says the final drive assembly provides f
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Technician B only is correct

Explanation:

The last stage of gears found between the vehicle transmission system and the wheels is the final drive ratio. The function of the final drive gear assembly is to enable a gear reduction control stage to reduce the rotation per minute and increase the wheel torque, such that the vehicle performance can be adjusted and the final gear ratio can be between 3:1 and 4.5:1 not 1:1

Therefore, technician B only is correct

A seamless pipe 800mm diameter contains a fluid under a pressure of 2N/mm2. If the permissible tensile stress is 100N/mm2, find
Bad White [126]

Answer:

8 mm

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter, D = 800 mm

Pressure, P = 2 N/mm²

Permissible tensile stress, σ = 100 N/mm²

Now,

for the pipes, we have the relation as:

\sigma=\frac{\textup{PD}}{\textup{2t}}

where, t is the thickness

on substituting the respective values, we get

100=\frac{\textup{2\times800}}{\textup{2t}}

or

t = 8 mm

Hence, the minimum thickness of pipe is 8 mm
