In a home, air infiltrates from the outside through cracks around doors and windows. Consider a residence where the total length

of cracks is 62 m and the total internal volume is 210 m3 . Due to the wind, 9.4 x 10-5 kg/s of air enters per meter of crack and exits up a chimney. Assume air temperature is the same inside and out and air density is constant at 1.186 kg/m3 . If windows and doors are not opened or closed, estimate the time required for one complete air change in the building.

Answer:

Time period = 41654.08 s

Explanation:

Given data:

Internal volume is 210 m^3

Rate of air infiltration $9.4 \times 10^{-5} kg/s$

length of cracks 62 m

air density = 1.186 kg/m^3

Total rate of air infiltration $= 9.4\times 10^{-5} \times 62 = 582.8\times 10{-5} kg/s$

total volume of air infiltration $= \frac{582.8\times 10{-5}}{1.156} = 5.04\times 10^{-3} m^3/s$

Time period $= \frac{210}{5.04\times 10^{-3}} = 41654.08 s$

The stagnation chamber of a wind tunnel is connected to a high-pressure airbottle farm which is outside the laboratory building.

Natasha2012 [34]

This question is not complete, the complete question is;

The stagnation chamber of a wind tunnel is connected to a high-pressure air bottle farm which is outside the laboratory building. The two are connected by a long pipe of 4-in inside diameter. If the static pressure ratio between the bottle farm and the stagnation chamber is 10, and the bottle-farm static pressure is 100 atm, how long can the pipe be without choking? Assume adiabatic, subsonic, one-dimensional flow with a friction coefficient of 0.005

Answer:

the length of the pipe is 11583 in or 965.25 ft

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Static pressure ratio; p1/p2 = 10

friction coefficient f = 0.005

diameter of pipe, D =4 inch

first we obtain the value from FANN0 FLOW TABLE for pressure ratio of ( p1/p2 = 10 )so

4fL $_{max}$ / D = 57.915

we substitute

(4×0.005×L $_{max}$ ) / 4 = 57.915

0.005L $_{max}$ = 57.915

L $_{max}$ = 57.915 / 0.005

L $_{max}$ = 11583 in

Therefore, the length of the pipe is 11583 in or 965.25 ft

What is the first test you should do when checking the charging system?

yan [13]

Answer:

Connect the test light in series with the negative post, and start pulling feed wires. The first to check is the heavy charging wire from the alternator. A bad or leaky diode in an alternator is a very common source of overnight battery drain. Connect wires one at a time to see what lead is drawing current.

La probabilidad de que un nuevo producto tenga éxito es de 0.85. Si se eligen 10 personas al azar y se les pregunta si compraría

liq [111]

Answer:

La probabilidad pedida es $0.820196$

Explanation:

Sabemos que la probabilidad de que un nuevo producto tenga éxito es de 0.85. Sabemos también que se eligen 10 personas al azar y se les pregunta si comprarían el nuevo producto. Para responder a la pregunta, primero definiremos la siguiente variable aleatoria :

$X:$ '' Número de personas que adquirirán el nuevo producto de 10 personas a las que se les preguntó ''

Ahora bien, si suponemos que la probabilidad de que el nuevo producto tenga éxito se mantiene constante $(p=0.85)$ y además suponemos que hay independencia entre cada una de las personas al azar a las que se les preguntó ⇒ Podemos modelar a $X$ como una variable aleatoria Binomial. Esto se escribe :

$X$ ~ $Bi(n,p)$ en donde $''n''$ es el número de personas entrevistadas y $''p''$ es la probabilidad de éxito (una persona adquiriendo el producto) en cada caso.

Utilizando los datos ⇒ $X$ ~ $Bi(10,0.85)$

La función de probabilidad de la variable aleatoria binomial es :

$p_{X}(x)=P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}n&x\end{array}\right)p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}$ con $x=0,1,2,...,n$

Si reemplazamos los datos de la pregunta en la función de probabilidad obtenemos :

$P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}10&x\end{array}\right)(0.85)^{x}(0.15)^{10-x}$ con $x=0,1,2,...,10$

Nos piden la probabilidad de que por lo menos 8 personas adquieran el nuevo producto, esto es :

$P(X\geq 8)=P(X=8)+P(X=9)+P(X=10)$

Calculando $P(X=8), P(X=9)$ y $P(X=10)$ por separado y sumando, obtenemos que $P(X\geq 8)=0.820196$

Find the time-domain sinusoid for the following phasors:_________

sattari [20]

<u>Answer</u>:

a. r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt + 38.66°) units

b. r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt - 38.66°) units

c. r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt - 38.66°) units

d. r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt + 38.66°) units

<u>Explanation</u>:

To find the time-domain sinusoid for a phasor, given as a + bj, we follow the following steps:

(i) Convert the phasor to polar form. The polar form is written as;

r∠Ф

Where;

r = magnitude of the phasor = $\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$

Ф = direction = tan⁻¹ ( $\frac{b}{a}$ )

(ii) Use the magnitude (r) and direction (Φ) from the polar form to get the general form of the time-domain sinusoid (r(t)) as follows:

r(t) = r cos (ωt + Φ)

Where;

ω = angular frequency of the sinusoid

Φ = phase angle of the sinusoid

(a) 5 + j4

<em>(i) convert to polar form</em>

r = $\sqrt{5^2 + 4^2}$

r = $\sqrt{25 + 16}$

r = $\sqrt{41}$

r = 6.40

Φ = tan⁻¹ ( $\frac{4}{5}$ )

Φ = tan⁻¹ (0.8)

Φ = 38.66°

5 + j4 = 6.40∠38.66°

(ii) <em>Use the magnitude (r) and direction (Φ) from the polar form to get the general form of the time-domain sinusoid</em>

r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt + 38.66°)

(b) 5 - j4

<em>(i) convert to polar form</em>

r = $\sqrt{5^2 + (-4)^2}$

r = $\sqrt{25 + 16}$

r = $\sqrt{41}$

r = 6.40

Φ = tan⁻¹ ( $\frac{-4}{5}$ )

Φ = tan⁻¹ (-0.8)

Φ = -38.66°

5 - j4 = 6.40∠-38.66°

(ii) <em>Use the magnitude (r) and direction (Φ) from the polar form to get the general form of the time-domain sinusoid</em>

r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt - 38.66°)

(c) -5 + j4

<em>(i) convert to polar form</em>

r = $\sqrt{(-5)^2 + 4^2}$

r = $\sqrt{25 + 16}$

r = $\sqrt{41}$

r = 6.40

Φ = tan⁻¹ ( $\frac{4}{-5}$ )

Φ = tan⁻¹ (-0.8)

Φ = -38.66°

-5 + j4 = 6.40∠-38.66°

(ii) <em>Use the magnitude (r) and direction (Φ) from the polar form to get the general form of the time-domain sinusoid</em>

r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt - 38.66°)

(d) -5 - j4

<em>(i) convert to polar form</em>

r = $\sqrt{(-5)^2 + (-4)^2}$

r = $\sqrt{25 + 16}$

r = $\sqrt{41}$

r = 6.40

Φ = tan⁻¹ ( $\frac{-4}{-5}$ )

Φ = tan⁻¹ (0.8)

Φ = 38.66°

-5 - j4 = 6.40∠38.66°

(ii) <em>Use the magnitude (r) and direction (Φ) from the polar form to get the general form of the time-domain sinusoid</em>

r(t) = 6.40 cos (ωt + 38.66°)
