Which of the following statements about pitot-static systems is FALSE? a). A pitot probe measures the Total Pressure of the free
1 answer:
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Pitot tube:
Pitot tube is a device which is used to measure the velocity of flow by measuring pressure difference between the points.
As we know that stagnation pressure is the summation of dynamic and static pressure.
Stagnation pressure = Static pressure + Dynamic pressure
So
Dynamic pressure = Stagnation pressure - Static pressure
We know that dynamic pressure
On the other hand Pitot tube measure the dynamic pressure.
So option C is correct.

Answer:
a.)
US Sieve no. % finer (C₅ )
4 100
10 95.61
20 82.98
40 61.50
60 42.08
100 20.19
200 6.3
Pan 0
b.) D10 = 0.12, D30 = 0.22, and D60 = 0.4
c.) Cu = 3.33
d.) Cc = 1
Explanation:
As given ,
US Sieve no. Mass of soil retained (C₂ )
4 0
10 18.5
20 53.2
40 90.5
60 81.8
100 92.2
200 58.5
Pan 26.5
Now,
Total weight of the soil = w = 0 + 18.5 + 53.2 + 90.5 + 81.8 + 92.2 + 58.5 + 26.5 = 421.2 g
⇒ w = 421.2 g
As we know that ,
% Retained = C₃ = C₂×
∴ we get
US Sieve no. % retained (C₃ ) Cummulative % retained (C₄)
4 0 0
10 4.39 4.39
20 12.63 17.02
40 21.48 38.50
60 19.42 57.92
100 21.89 79.81
200 13.89 93.70
Pan 6.30 100
Now,
% finer = C₅ = 100 - C₄
∴ we get
US Sieve no. Cummulative % retained (C₄) % finer (C₅ )
4 0 100
10 4.39 95.61
20 17.02 82.98
40 38.50 61.50
60 57.92 42.08
100 79.81 20.19
200 93.70 6.3
Pan 100 0
The grain-size distribution is :
b.)
From the diagram , we can see that
D10 = 0.12
D30 = 0.22
D60 = 0.12
c.)
Uniformity Coefficient = Cu =
⇒ Cu =
d.)
Coefficient of Graduation = Cc =
⇒ Cc = = 1
