ella [17]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure in atm=0.885 atm

Explanation:

Given that

Local pressure (h)= 30 ft of water height     ( 1 ft= 0.3048 m)

We know that pressure in given by

  P=ρgh

We know that ρ of water is 1000\dfrac{kg}{m^3}

So pressure

P=1000(9.81)(9.144)

P=89.7026 \dfrac{N}{m^2}

We know that 1000 Pa=0.00986 atm

So P=0.885 atm

The atmospheric pressure in atm=0.885 atm

The longest_word function is used to compare 3 words. It should return the word with the most number of characters (and the firs
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 .

A pipe of 0.3 m outer diameter at a temperature of 160°C is insulated with a material having a thermal conductivity of k = 0.055
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Q=0.95 W/m

Explanation:

Given that

Outer diameter = 0.3 m

Thermal conductivity of material

K= 0.055(1+2.8\times 10^{-3}T)\frac{W}{mK}

So the mean conductivity

K_m=0.055\left ( 1+2.8\times 10^{-3}T_m \right )

T_m=\dfrac{160+273+40+273}{2}

T_m=373 K

K_m=0.055\left ( 1+2.8\times 10^{-3}\times 373 \right )

K_m=0.112 \frac{W}{mK}

So heat conduction through cylinder

Q=kA\dfrac{\Delta T}{L}

Q=0.112\times \pi \times 0.15^2\times 120

Q=0.95 W/m
