Answer:

$Q=4.98\times 10^{-3}\ m^3/s$ .

Explanation:

Given that

L= 50 m

Pressure drop = 130 KPa

copper tube is 3/4 standard type K drawn tube.

From standard chart ,the dimension of 3/4 standard type K copper tube given as

Outside diameter=22.22 mm

Inside diameter=18.92 mm

Dynamic viscosity for kerosene

$\mu =0.00164\ Pa.s$

We know that

$\Delta P=\dfrac{128\mu QL}{\pi d_i^4}$

Where Q is volume flow rate

L is length of tube

$d_i$ is inner diameter of tube

ΔP is pressure drop

μ is dynamic viscosity

Now by putting the values

$\Delta P=\dfrac{128\mu QL}{\pi d_i^4}$

$130\times 1000=\dfrac{128\times 0.00164\times 50Q}{\pi \times 0.01892^4}$

$Q=4.98\times 10^{-3}\ m^3/s$

So flow rate is $Q=4.98\times 10^{-3}\ m^3/s$ .

The dam cross section is an equilateral triangle, with a side length, L, of 50 m. Its width into the paper, b, is 100 m. The dam

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

In an equilateral trinagle the center of mass is at 1/3 of the height and horizontally centered.

We can consider that the weigth applies a torque of T = W*b/2 on the right corner, being W the weight and b the base of the triangle.

The weigth depends on the size and specific gravity.

W = 1/2 * b * h * L * SG

Then

Teq = 1/2 * b * h * L * SG * b / 2

Teq = 1/4 * b^2 * h * L * SG

The water would apply a torque of elements of pressure integrated over the area and multiplied by the height at which they are apllied:

$T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {p(y) * sin(30) * L * (h-y)} \, dy$

The term sin(30) is because of the slope of the wall

The pressure of water is:

p(y) = SGw * (h - y)

Then:

$T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {SGw * (h-y) * sin(30) * L * (h-y)} \, dy$

$T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {SGw * sin(30) * L * (h-y)^2} \, dy$

$T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {(h-y)^2} \, dy$

$T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {(h-y)^2} \, dy$

$T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {h^2 - 2*h*y + y^2} \, dy$

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^2*y - h*y^2 + 1/3*y^3)(evaluated between 0 and h)

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^2*h - h*h^2 + 1/3*h^3)

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^3 - h^3 + 1/3*h^3)

T1 = 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * h^3

To remain stable the equilibrant torque (Teq) must be of larger magnitude than the water pressure torque (T1)

1/4 * b^2 * h * L * SG > 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * h^3

In an equilateral triangle h = b * cos(30)

1/4 * b^3 * cos(30) * L * SG > 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * b^3 * (cos(30))^3

SG > SGw * 4/3* sin(30) * (cos(30))^2

SG > 1/2 * SGw

For the dam to hold, it should have a specific gravity of at leas half the specific gravity of water.

This is avergae specific gravity, including holes.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

answers:

1. Chemical engineering is most difficult because it's a mix of physics, chemistry and math

2. Stoichiometry is so important because it shows how materials react, interact and play off each other

3. Yes I think consumers would notice if process control standards were not met. for example medicines, when people take Tylenol or cold pills, if the amount of time it took to kick it becomes longer, people will become aware that the product is not consistent and reliable.

4. i have no idea sorry :(

5. This is explaining how there are rules and regulations to make the workplace safe. it can be accomplished by following those rules and regulations

A small metal particle passes downward through a fluid medium while being subjected to the attraction of a magnetic field such t

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

a)Δs = 834 mm

b)V=1122 mm/s

$a=450\ mm/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that

$s = 15t^3 - 3t\ mm$

a)

When t= 2 s

$s = 15t^3 - 3t\ mm$

$s = 15\times 2^3 - 3\times 2\ mm$

s= 114 mm

At t= 4 s

$s = 15t^3 - 3t\ mm$

$s = 15\times 4^3- 3\times 4\ mm$

s= 948 mm

So the displacement between 2 s to 4 s

Δs = 948 - 114 mm

Δs = 834 mm

b)

We know that velocity V

$V=\dfrac{ds}{dt}$

$\dfrac{ds}{dt}=45t^2-3$

At t= 5 s

$V=45t^2-3$

$V=45\times 5^2-3$

V=1122 mm/s

We know that acceleration a

$a=\dfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}$

$\dfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}=90t$

a= 90 t

a = 90 x 5

$a=450\ mm/s^2$

denis-greek [22]

According to the question of the pulsating brake pedal, both A and B are correct.

What causes brake pulsation?

Brake pulsation is mainly caused by warped rotors/brake discs. Excessive hard braking or quick stops, which can significantly overheat the discs, are the primary causes of deformed rotors. When the discs overheat, the composition of the metal disc material changes, resulting in imperfections in the metal's surface. Hotspots are noticeable irregularities. They appear as discoloured areas of the disc material, which are often bluish or blackish in appearance. The brake pedal is the pedal which you press with your foot to slow or stop a vehicle. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the system automatically delivers the appropriate pressure required to prevent colliding with the vehicle in front.
