Answer:

Go, but only if the intersection is clear.

Explanation:

Traffic at intersection can be complicated at times. If the green light comes on after a red light, you have the right of way to go, but you should be careful to only go when the intersection is clear to avoid an accident. Once using the road, a good driver should be conscious of the other road users, as accidents might happen from you claiming your-right of-way

A parallel circuit with two branches and an 18 volt battery. Resistor #1 on the first branch has a value of 220 ohms and resisto
likoan [24]

Answer:

  2.455 W

Explanation:

The power dissipated in each branch is ...

  P = V^2/R

So, the branch powers are ...

  branch 1: 18^2/220 ≈ 1.473 W

  branch 2: 18^2/330 ≈ 0.982 W

Total power is ...

  1.473 W + 0.982 W = 2.455 W

Two vertical parallel plates are spaced 0.01 ft apart. If the pressure decreases at a rate of 60 psf/ft in the vertical z-direct
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

umax = 0.1259ft/s

Explanation:

Given:

•Distance between plates, B = 0.01ft

•Pressure difference decrease, \frac{dp}{dz}=60ps/ft

•Fluid viscosity, u = 10^-³lbf-s/ft²

Specific gravity, S = 0.80

Max velocity in the z-direction will be:

u_max= [\frac{B^2y}{8u}]\frac{dh}{ds}

But h = \frac{P}{y}+z

Substituting for h in the first equation, we have:

\frac{d}{dz}[\frac{p}{y}+z]

\frac{dh}{dz}=\frac{1}{y}\frac{dp}{ds}+\frac{dz}{dz}

= \frac{1}{0.8*62.4}(-60)+1

= -0.20192

Substituting dh/dz value in the first equation (umax), we have:

umax = \frac{0.01^2(0.8*62.4)}{8*10^-^3}(-0.20192)

umax = 0.1259ft/s

The flow rate in the pipe system below is 0.05 m3/s. The pressure at point 1 is measured to be 260 kPa. Point 1 is 0.60 m higher
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rate of flow in the pipe system in Figure P4.5.2 is 0.05 m3/s. The pressure at point 1 is measured to be 260 kPa. All the pipes are galvanized iron with roughness value of 0.15 mm. Determine the pressure at point 2. Take the loss coefficient for the sudden contraction as 0.05 and v = 1.141 × 10−6 m2/s.

The answer to the above question is

The pressure at point 2 = 75.959 kPa

Explanation:

Bernoulli's equation with losses gives

hL = z₁ - z₃ +(P₁-P₃)/(ρ×g) + (v₁²-v₃²)/(2×g)

Between points 1 and 2, z₁ = z₃ + 0.6 m therefore

hL = 0.6 m +(P₁-P₂)/(ρ×g) + (v₁²-v₃²)/(2×g)

hL = (f₁×L₁×v₁²)/(D₁×2×g) + (f₂×L₂×v₂²)/(D₂×2×g) + (f₃×L₃×v₃²)/(D₃×2×g) + k×V₃₂/(2×g) = 0.6 +(P₁-P₂)/(ρ×g) + (v₁²-v₃²)/(2×g)

But v = Q/A

or  since A = π×D²/4 we have

A₁ = 1.77×10-2 m² , A₂ = 5.73×10-2 m², A₃ = 3.8×10-2 m²  

Therefore from v = Q/A we have v₁ = 2.83 m/s v₂ = 0.87 m/s and v₃  = 1.315 m/s  from there we find the friction coefficient from Moody Diagram as follows

ε = \frac{Roughness _. value}{ Diameter} Which gives

the friction coefficients as f₁ = 0.02, f₂ = 0.017 and f₃ =0.0175

Substituting he above values into the h_{l} equation we get h_{l} = 19.761 m

Combined head loss = 19.761 m

Hence 19.743 m  = 0.6 m +(260 kPa-P₃)/(ρ×9.81) + (6.276)/(2×9.81)

or 260 kPa-18.82 m × 9.81 m/s²×ρ=  P₃

Where ρ = density of water, we have

260000 Pa - 18.82 m×9.81 m/s²×997 kg/m³ = 75958.598 kg/m·s² = 75.959 kPa

A platform and a weight totaling 900 N is held in position by a vertical water jet of 5 cm diameter. Determine the velocity of t
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

v = 21.409 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Total weight of the platform and weight together, W = 900 N

Diameter of the water jet = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Now,

the force exerted by the water jet is balancing the platform

also,

Force exerted by the water jet = ρAv²

where,

ρ is the density of the water = 1000 kg/m³

A is the area of the outlet of the jet = \frac{\pi}{4}d^2=\frac{\pi}{4}(0.05)^2

or

A = 0.00196 m²

v is the velocity of the jet

thus,

W = ρAv²

or

900 = 1000 × 0.00196 × v²

or

v = 21.409 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the jet is 21.409 m/s
