Answer:

(a) 120 kW

(b) 800 kW

Explanation:

Given:

diameter: 1.5 m

length = 22 m

U = 5 m/s

temperature = 20°C

For water at 20°C, take ρ = 998 kg/m³  and µ = 0.001 kg/m⋅s

To find:

power in kW

(a) if the cylinder is parallel

Length / Diameter = L / D = 22 / 1.5 = 14.6 = 15

Re(L) = ρ*U*L / µ = 998 * 5 * 22 / 0.001 = 109780000 = 1.1E8

C(D.Frontal) ≈ 1.1

  Force = F = 1.1 * ρ/2 * U² * π / 4 * D

            =  1.1 (998 / 2) (5)²(π / 4)(1.5)²  

            = 1.1 * 499 * 25 * 0.785 * 2.25

            = 24000 N

Power = Force * Displacement / time

           = F * U

           = 24000 * 5

           = 120000

Power = 120 kW

b) if the cylinder is normal to the tow direction.

Re(L) = ρ*U*D / µ = 998 * 5 * 1.5 / 0.001 = 7485000 = 7.5E6

C(D.Frontal) ≈ 0.4

Force = F = 0.4 * ρ/2 * U² * D * L

            =  0.4 (998 / 2) (5)²(1.5)(22)  

            = 164670 ≈ 165000

Power = Force * Displacement / time

           = F * U

           = 165000 * 5 = 825000

           ≈ 800 kW

Power = 800 kW

Answer:

The correct option is B) Balance Sheet

Explanation:

A Balance Sheet offers a description of a company's obligations, assets, and investments as well as net income over a given span of time such as a period of 6 months or 12 months, for instance.

Also known as the Statement of Financial Position, it contains sufficient information for investors and business owners to determine the company's financial performance in that period as well as to compare the performance of that company with industry norms or competition.

lakkis [162]

Answer:

both statement is correct

Explanation:

Flywheel engine uses to reduce fluctuations.

And                                                                

FlexPlate is a metal disk that connects the output from the engine to the input of the torque converter. This will replace the flywheel

so that both statement is correct

Gennadij [26K]

Harmonic excitation refers to a sinusoidal external force of a certain frequency applied to a system. ... Resonance occurs when the external excitation has the same frequency as the natural frequency of the system. It leads to large displacements and can cause a system to exceed its elastic range and fail structurally.

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Electrical current can be measured according to the rate of electric charge flow in any electrical circuit:

i(t) = dQ(t) / dt

the derivative of the electric charge by time determines the momentary current.

i(t) will be the momentary current I at time t in amps (A).

Q(t) will also be the momentary electric charge in coulombs (C).

t is the time in seconds (s).

so if the current is constant:

I = ΔQ / Δt

I will be the current in amps (A).

ΔQ will be the electric charge in coulombs (C), which is expected to flows at time duration of Δt.

Δt is the time duration in seconds (s).

Kindly check the attached image below to get the step by step explanation to the question above.
