Answer:

P_2_{abs}=160\ psia (absolute).

Explanation:

Given that

Pressure ratio r

r=8

r=\dfrac{P_2_{abs}}{P_1_{abs}}

  8=\dfrac{P_2_{abs}}{P_1_{abs}}                                  -----1

P₁(gauge) = 5.5 psig

We know that

Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure  + Gauge  pressure

Given that

Atmospheric pressure = 14.5 lbf/in²

P₁(abs) = 14.5 + 5.5  psia

P₁(abs) =20 psia

Now by putting the values in the above equation 1

8=\dfrac{P_2_{abs}}{20}

P_2_{abs}=8\times 20\ psia

P_2_{abs}=160\ psia

Therefore the exit gas pressure will be 160 psia (absolute).

All MOS devices are subject to damage from:________
Alchen [17]

Answer:

  d. all of these

Explanation:

Electrostatic discharge will generally produce excess voltage in a local area that results in excessive current and excessive heat. It will blast a crater in an MOS device, or melt bond wires, or cause damage of other sorts. In short, MOS devices are subject to damage from "all of these."

A 2-cm-diameter vertical water jet is injected upward by a nozzle at a speed of 15 m/s. Determine the maximum weight of a flat p
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:58.28 N

Explanation:

Given data

dia. of nozzle \left ( d\right )=2 cm

initial velocity\left ( u\right )=15 m/s

height\left ( h\right )=2m

Now velocity of jet at height of 2m

v^2-u^2=2gh

v^2=15^2-2\left ( 9.81\right )\left ( 2\right )

v=\sqrt{185.76}=13.62 m/s

Now\ forces\ on\ plate\ are\ weight\left ( Downward\right ) and jet\ force\left ( upward\right )

equating them

W=\left ( \rho Av\right )v

W=10^{3}\times \frac{\pi}{4}\left ( 0.02\right )^2\times 13.62^2

W=58.28 N
