Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Both a gage and a manometer are attached to a gas tank to measure its pressure. If the reading on the pressure gage is 65 kPa, determine the distance between the two fluid levels of the manometer if the fluid is a) mercury b) water

Solution:

A manometer is a device used to measure pressure. A manometer is made up of a U shaped tube containing liquid. The difference of pressure in the two arms causes the liquid to reach different heights.

a) The density of mercury (\rho_{Hg}) = 13600 kg/m³, Pressure (P) = 65 kPa and g = 9.8 m/s², h = distance between the two fluid levels

P=\rho_{Hg}*g*h\\\\h=\frac{P}{\rho_{Hg}*g} =\frac{65*10^3\ Pa}{13600*9.81}=0.487\ m

b) For water, \rho_w = 1000 kg/m³, hence:

P=\rho_{w}*g*h\\\\h=\frac{P}{\rho_{w}*g} =\frac{65*10^3\ Pa}{1000*9.81}=6.6\ m

If the dry-bulb temperature is 95°F and the wet-bulb temperature is also 78°F, what is the relative humid- ity? What is the dew
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Relative humidity 48%.

Dew point 74°F

humidity ratio 118 g of moisture/pound of dry air

enthalpy 41,8 BTU per pound of dry air

Explanation:

You can get this information from a Psychrometric chart for water, like the one attached.

You enter the chart with dry-bulb and wet-bulb temperatures (red point in the attachment) and following the relative humidity curves you get approximately 48%.

To get the dew point you need to follow the horizontal lines to the left scale (marked with blue): 74°F

for the humidity ratio you need to follow the horizontal lines but to the rigth scale (marked with green): 118 g of moisture/pound of dry air

For enthalpy follow the diagonal lines to the far left scale (marked with yellow): 41,8 BTU per pound of dry air

What is tear test? What do we understand from this test? How?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Explanation:

The tear test determines the force required by a material to undergo complete failure when there is already a crack or tear present in it.

With this test we understand a material's resistance to failure when there is already a crack present.

The material which already has a crack is placed in a tensile testing or universal test machine. So, both sides of the material along the crack are pulled until material failure takes place.
