Answer:

design angle ∅ = 4.9968 ≈ 5⁰

Explanation:

First calculate the force Fac :

Fac = \sqrt{400^2 + 650^2 - 2(400)(650)cos30}

      = \sqrt{160000 + 422500 - 80210}

      = 708.72 Ib

using the sine law to determine the design angle

\frac{sin}{400}  = \frac{sin 30}{Fac}

hence ∅ = sin^{-1} (\frac{sin 30 *400}{708.72} )

              = sin^{-1} 0.0871 =  4.9968 ≈ 5⁰

Water flows through a horizontal plastic pipe with a diameter of 0.15 m at a velocity of 15 cm/s. Determine the pressure drop pe
Sonja [21]

Answer:0.1898 Pa/m

Explanation:

Given data

Diameter of Pipe\left ( D\right )=0.15m

Velocity of water in pipe\left ( V\right )=15cm/s

We know viscosity of water is\left (\mu\right )=8.90\times10^{-4}pa-s

Pressure drop is given by hagen poiseuille equation

\Delta P=\frac{128\mu \L Q}{\pi D^4}

We have asked pressure Drop per unit length i.e.

\frac{\Delta P}{L} =\frac{128\mu \ Q}{\pi D^4}

Substituting Values

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=\frac{128\times8.90\times10^{-4}\times\pi \times\left ( 0.15^{3}\right )}{\pi\times 4 \times\left ( 0.15^{2}\right )}

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=0.1898 Pa/m

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.

An insulated, vertical piston-cylinder device initially contains 10kg of water, 6kg of which is in the vapor phase. The mass of
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

a)120C

b)29kg

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this exercise follow the steps below

1. we will call 1 the initial state, 2 the steam that enters and 3 the final state

2. We find the quality of the initial state, dividing the mass of steam by the total mass.

q1=\frac{6kg}{10kg} =0.6

3 Find the internal energy in the three states using thermodynamic tables

note:Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)  

through prior knowledge of two other properties such as pressure and temperature.  

u1=IntEnergy(Water;x=0,6(quality);P=200kPa) =1719KJ/kg

u2=IntEnergy(Water;t=350;P=5000kPa) =2808KJ/kg

u3=IntEnergy(Water;x=1;P=200kPa) =2529KJ/kg

4. use the internal energy and pressure to find the temperature in state 3, using thermodynamic tables

T3=Temperature(Water;P=200kPa;u=u3=2529KJ/kg)=120C

5. Use the first law of thermodynamics in the system, it states that the initial energy in a system must be equal to the final

m1u1+m2u2=(m1+m2)u3

where

m1=inital mass=10kg

m2=the mass of the steam that has entered.

solve for m2

(m1)(u1-u3)=(m2)(u3)-(m2)(u2)

m2=m1\frac{u1-u3}{u3-u2} =10\frac{1719-2529}{2529-2808} =29kg

A 1000-turn coil of wire 1.0 cm in diameter is in a magnetic field that increases from 0.10 T to 0.30 T in 10 ms. The axis of th
ddd [48]

emf generated by the coil is 1.57 V

Explanation:

Given details-

Number of turns of wire- 1000 turns

The diameter of the wire coil- 1 cm

Magnetic field (Initial)= 0.10 T

Magnetic Field (Final)=0.30 T

Time=10 ms

The orientation of the axis of the coil= parallel to the field.

We know that EMF of the coil is mathematically represented as –

E=N(ΔФ/Δt)

Where E= emf generated

ΔФ= change inmagnetic flux

Δt= change in time

N= no of turns*area of the coil

Substituting the values of the above variables

=1000*3.14*0.5*10-4

=.0785

E=0.0785(.2/10*10-3)

=1.57 V

Thus, the emf generated is 1.57 V

How is the energy harnessed and converted into useful energy?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

1. How energy is harnessed?  

Another way to tap solar energy is by collecting the sun's heat. Solar thermal power plants use heat from the sun to create steam, which can then be used to make electricity. On a smaller scale, solar panels that harness thermal energy can be used for heating water in homes, other buildings, and swimming pools.

2. How is solar energy converted into useful energy?

Solar panels convert the sun's light into usable solar energy using N-type and P-type semiconductor material. When sunlight is absorbed by these materials, the solar energy knocks electrons loose from their atoms, allowing the electrons to flow through the material to produce electricity.
