A pump with a power of 5 kW (pump power, and not useful pump power) and an efficiency of 72 percent is used to pump water from a

lake to a pool through a constant diameter. The free surface of the pool is 25 m above the free surface of the lake. If the irreversible head loss in the piping system is 4 m, determine (a) the mass flowrate of water and (b) the pressure difference across the pump.

Answer:

a) The mass flow rate of water is 14.683 kilograms per second.

b) The pressure difference across the pump is 245.175 kilopascals.

Explanation:

a) Let suppose that pump works at steady state. The mass flow rate of the water (\dot m), in kilograms per second, is determined by following formula:

\dot m = \frac{\eta \cdot \dot W}{g\cdot H} (1)

Where:

\dot W - Pump power, in watts.

\eta - Efficiency, no unit.

g - Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.

H - Hydrostatic column, in meters.

If we know that \eta = 0.72, \dot W = 5000\,W, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and H = 25\,m, then the mass flow rate of water is:

\dot m = 14.683\,\frac{kg}{s}

The mass flow rate of water is 14.683 kilograms per second.

b) The pressure difference across the pump (\Delta P), in pascals, is determined by this equation:

\Delta P = \rho\cdot g\cdot H (2)

Where \rho is the density of water, in kilograms per cubic meter.

If we know that \rho = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and H = 25\,m, then the pressure difference is:

\Delta P = 245175\,Pa

The pressure difference across the pump is 245.175 kilopascals.

Write a program that prompts the user to enter time in 12-hour notation. The program then outputs the time in 24-hour notation.
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

THE CODE FOR THE PROGRAM IS GIVEN BELOW:

#include <iostream>

#include "ConvertTimeHeader.h"

using namespace std;

int main()

{

convertTime convert;

int hr, mn, sc = 0;

 

cout << "Please input hours in 12 hr notation: ";

cin >> hr;

cout << "Please input minutes: ";

cin >> mn;

cout << "Please input seconds: ";

cin >> sc;

 

convert.invalidHr(hr);

convert.invalidMin(mn);

convert.invalidSec(sc);

convert.printMilTime();

 

system("Pause");

 

return 0;  

 

}

#include <iostream>

#include "ConvertTimeHeader.h"

using namespace std;

int convertTime::invalidHr (int hour)

{

try{

 if (hour < 13 && hour > 0)

  {hour = hour + 12;

  return hour;}

 else{

 

  cin.clear();

  cin.ignore();

  cout << "Invalid input! Please input hour again in correct 12 hour format: ";

  cin >> hour;

  invalidHr(hour);

  throw 10;

 }

   

}

catch (int c) { cout << "Invalid hour input!";}

}

int convertTime::invalidMin (int min)

{

try{

 if (min < 60 && min > 0)

  {return min;}

 else{

 

  cin.clear();

  cin.ignore();

  cout << "Invalid input! Please input minutes again in correct 12 hour format: ";

  cin >> min;

  invalidMin(min);

  throw 20;

  return 0;

 }

   

}

catch (int e) { cout << "Invalid minute input!" << endl;}

}

int convertTime::invalidSec(int sec)

{

try{

 if (sec < 60 && sec > 0)

  {return sec;}

 else{

 

  cin.clear();

  cin.ignore();

  cout << "Invalid input! Please input seconds again in correct 12 hour format: ";

  cin >> sec;

  invalidSec(sec);

  throw 30;

  return 0;

 }

   

}

catch (int t) { cout << "Invalid second input!" << endl;}

}

void convertTime::printMilTime()

{

cout << "Your time converted: " << hour << ":" << min << ":" << sec;

}

A single fixed pulley is used to lift a load of 400N by the application of an effort of 480N in 10s through a vertical height of
Allushta [10]

Answer:

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R) = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A) = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E) = 83.3 %

Explanation:

Given;

load lifted by the pulley, L = 400 N

effort applied in lifting the, E = 480 N

distance moved by the effort, d = 5 m

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R);

since the effort applied moved downwards through a distance of d, the load will also move upwards through an equal distance 'd'.

V.R = distance moved by effort / distance moved by the load

V.R = 5/5 = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A);

M.A = L/E

M.A = 400 / 480

M.A = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E);

E = \frac{M.A}{V.R} \times 100\%\\\\E = 0.833 \ \times \ 100\%\\\\ E = 83.3 \ \%

The mechanical properties of a metal may be improved by incorporating fine particles of its oxide. Given that the moduli of elas
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

A) Upper bound modulus of elasticity; E = 165.6 GPa

B) Lower bound modulus of elasticity; E = 83.09 GPa

Explanation:

A) Formula for upper bound modulus is given as;

E = E_m(1 - V_f) + E_f•V_f

We are given;

E_m = 60 GPa

E_f = 380 GPa

V_f = 33% = 0.33

Thus,

E = 60(1 - 0.33) + 380(0.33)

E = (60 x 0.67) + 125.4

E = 165.6 GPa

B) Formula for lower bound modulus is given as;

E = 1/[(V_f/E_f) + ((1 – V_f)/E_m)]

E = 1/[(0.33/380) + ((1 – 0.33)/60)]

E = 1/(0.0008684 + 0.01116667)

E = 1/0.01203507

E = 83.09 GPa
