Answer:

Explanation:

Height h = 1.03m

Volume v = 3780 gallons = 3780 * 0.0037851m^3 = 14.3073m^3

Time t = 13.5 mins = 13.5 * 60 = 810 seconds

Length of pool L = 14 inch = 14 * 2.54 = 35.56cm

width of pool b = 48 inch = 48 * 2.54 = 121.92 cm

a.) Consider the bernoulli's equation is given as:

$P_1+\rho gh_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \rho gh_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 ...(1)$

consider the equation of bernoulli at the top of the pool

$P_0+\rho gh_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 =constant ...(2)$

where $P_1=P_0$ atm pressure

At the top of the pool $v_1=0m/s$ , substitute in V_1 in equation (2)

$P_0+\rho gh_1 =constant ...(3)$

Hence equation (3) serves as the bernoullis equation at the top.

b.) Consider the equation of bernoulli's at the opening of the pool

$P_2+\rho gh_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 =constant ...(4)\\P_0+\rho gh_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 =constant ...(5)$

where $P_2=P_0$ atm pressure and $h_2=0m$

$P_0+\rho v_1^2 =constant ...(6)$

Hence equation (6) serves as the bernoullis equation of water at the opening of the pool.

c.) Consider the equation (3) and (4)

$P_0+\rho gh_1 =P_0+\rho v_1^2\\\\\frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2=\rho gh_1\\v_2^2=2gh_1\\v_2=(\sqrt{2gh_1})m/s...(7)$

Hence velocity is $v_2=(\sqrt{2gh_1})m/s$

d.) consider (7)

$v_2=(\sqrt{2(9.81)(1.03)})=4.4954m/s(approx)$

This is the norminal value of velocity

e.) consider the equation of flow rate interval of v and t

flow(t)= $\frac{dv}{dt}(m^3/s)$ hence this is the flow rate

f.) Consider the equation cross sectional area in terms of V,v2 and t

$AV_2=\frac{v}{t}\\\\A=\frac{v}{v_2t}(m^2)...8$

hence this serves as the cross sectional area.

g.) Consider the equation of area from equation (8)

$A=\frac{v}{v_2t}\\=\frac{14.3073}{4.4954\times 810}=0.003929=0.00393m^2=39.3cm^2$

If it is desired to lay off a distance of 10,000' with a total error of no more than Â± 0.30 ft. If a 100' tape is used and the

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

± 0.003 ft

Explanation:

Since our distance is 10,000 ft and we need to use a full tape measure of 100 ft. We find that 10,000 = 100 × 100.

Let L' = our distance and L = our tape measure

So, L' = 100L

Now by error determination ΔL' = 100ΔL

Now ΔL' = ± 0.30 ft

ΔL = ΔL'/100

= ± 0.30 ft/100

= ± 0.003 ft

So, the maxim error per tape is ± 0.003 ft

Soils with low percolation rates do not need special attention during site engineering. select one: true false

saveliy_v [14]

It is accurate to say that site engineering does not require particular consideration for soils with low percolation rates.

<h3>What are percolation rates?</h3>

The rate at which water percolates through the soil is a measure of its ability to absorb and treat effluent, or wastewater that has undergone preliminary treatment in a septic tank.
Minutes per inch are used to measure percolation rate (mpi).
The process of a liquid gently moving through a filter is called percolation. This is how coffee is typically brewed.

The Latin verb percolare, which meaning "to strain through," is the source of the word "percolation." When liquid is strained through a filter, such as when making coffee, percolation occurs.

First we compute the characteristic length and the Biot number to see if the lumped parameter

analysis is applicable.

Since the Biot number is less than 0.1, we can use the lumped parameter analysis. In such an

analysis, the time to reach a certain temperature is given by the following

A steady, incompressible, two-dimensional velocity field is given by the following components in the x-y plane: u=1.85+2.05x+0.6

amm1812

1) $a_x=4.287+2.772x\\a_y=-5.579+2.772y$

2) 8.418

Explanation:

1)

The two components of the velocity field in x and y for the field in this problem are:

$u=1.85+2.05x+0.656y$

$v=0.754-2.18x-2.05y$

The x-component and y-component of the acceleration field can be found using the following equations:

$a_x=\frac{du}{dt}+u\frac{du}{dx}+v\frac{du}{dy}$

$a_y=\frac{dv}{dt}+u\frac{dv}{dx}+v\frac{dv}{dy}$

The derivatives in this problem are:

$\frac{du}{dt}=0$

$\frac{dv}{dt}=0$

$\frac{du}{dx}=2.05$

$\frac{du}{dy}=0.656$

$\frac{dv}{dx}=-2.18$

$\frac{dv}{dy}=-2.05$

Substituting, we find:

$a_x=0+(1.85+2.05x+0.656y)(2.05)+(0.754-2.18x-2.05y)(0.656)=\\a_x=4.287+2.772x$

And

$a_y=0+(1.85+2.05x+0.656y)(-2.18)+(0.754-2.18x-2.05y)(-2.05)=\\a_y=-5.579+2.772y$

2)

In this part of the problem, we want to find the acceleration at the point

(x,y) = (-1,5)

So we have

x = -1

y = 5

First of all, we substitute these values of x and y into the expression for the components of the acceleration field:

$a_x=4.287+2.772x\\a_y=-5.579+2.772y$

And so we find:

$a_x=4.287+2.772(-1)=1.515\\a_y=-5.579+2.772(5)=8.281$

And finally, we find the magnitude of the acceleration simply by applying Pythagorean's theorem:

$a=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2}=\sqrt{1.515^2+8.281^2}=8.418$

A certain part of the cast iron piping of a water distribution system involves a parallel section. Both parallel pipes have a di

Bezzdna [24]

Answer :

<h3>Flow rate in pipe B is = 0.3094 $\frac{m^{3} }{s}$ </h3>

Explanation:

Given :

Length of pipe A $L_{A} = 1500$ m

Length of pipe B $L_{B} = 2500$ m

Flow rate through pipe A $Q_{A} = 0.4 \frac{m^{3} }{s}$

Diameter of pipe $D = 30 \times 10^{-2}$ m

Velocity from pipe A,

$V _{A} = \frac{Q_{A} }{A}$

$V _{A} = \frac{0.4 \times 4 }{\pi ( 30 \times 10^{-2} )^{2} }$

$V_{A} = 5.66$ $\frac{m}{s}$

Here, head loss is same because height is same.

$h_{a} = h_{b}$

$L_{A} V_{A} ^{2} = L_{B} V_{B} ^{2}$

$V_{B} = \sqrt{\frac{1500}{2500}} (5.66)$

$V_{B} = 4.38$ $\frac{m}{s}$

Now rate of flow from pipe B is,

$Q_{B} = V_{B} A$

$Q_{B} = \frac{\pi }{4} (0.3)^{2} \times 4.38$

$Q_{B} = 0.3094$ $\frac{m^{3} }{s}$
