Y_Kistochka [10]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Foresight rod reading is any measurement taken at a given sight to determine a particular elevation. The backsight rod readings are usually used to a point of certain elevation. It is added to the elevation to determine the height of the instrument. These are phenomena are used in differential leveling and are applied to corrections for curvature and refraction.

Why is it reasonable to say that no system is 100% efficient?

Virty [35]

Generally, frictional losses are more predominant for the machines being not 100% efficient. This friction leads to the loss of energy in the form of heat, into the surroundings. Some of the supplied energy may be utilised to change the entropy (measure of randomness of the particles) of the system.

In the lab, a container of saturated soil had a mass of 113.27 g before it was placed in the oven and100.06 g after the soil had

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Moisture/ water content w = 26%

Void ratio , e = 0.73

Explanation:

Initial mass of saturated soil w1 = mass of soil - weight of container

= 113.27 g - 49.31 g = 63.96 g

Final mass of soil after oven w2 = mass of soil - weight of container

= 100.06 g - 49.31 g = 50.75

Moisture /water content, w = $\frac{w1-w2}{w2}$ = $\frac{63.96-50.75}{50.75}$ = 0.26 = 26%

Void ratio = water content X specific gravity of solid

= 0.26 X 2.80 =0.728

11–17 A long, thin-walled double-pipe heat exchanger with tube and shell diameters of 1.0 cm and 2.5 cm, respectively, is used t

lana [24]

Answer:

the overall heat transfer coefficient of this heat exchanger is 1855.8923 W/m²°C

Explanation:

Given:

d₁ = diameter of the tube = 1 cm = 0.01 m

d₂ = diameter of the shell = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

Refrigerant-134a

20°C is the temperature of water

h₁ = convection heat transfer coefficient = 4100 W/m² K

Water flows at a rate of 0.3 kg/s

Question: Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient of this heat exchanger, Q = ?

First at all, you need to get the properties of water at 20°C in tables:

k = 0.598 W/m°C

v = 1.004x10⁻⁶m²/s

Pr = 7.01

ρ = 998 kg/m³

Now, you need to calculate the velocity of the water that flows through the shell:

$v_{w} =\frac{m}{\rho \pi (\frac{d_{2}^{2}-d_{1}^{2} }{4} )} =\frac{0.3}{998*\pi (\frac{0.025^{2}-0.01^{2} }{4}) } =0.729m/s$

It is necessary to get the Reynold's number:

$Re=\frac{v_{w}(d_{2}-d_{1}) }{v} =\frac{0.729*(0.025-0.01)}{1.004x10^{-6} } =10891.4343$

Like the Reynold's number is greater than 10000, the regime is turbulent. Now, the Nusselt's number:

$Nu=0.023Re^{0.8} Pr^{0.4} =0.023*(10891.4343)^{0.8} *(7.01)^{0.4} =85.0517$

The overall heat transfer coefficient:

$Q=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{h_{1} }+\frac{1}{h_{2} } }$

Here

$h_{2} =\frac{kNu}{d_{2}-d_{1}} =\frac{0.598*85.0517}{0.025-0.01} =3390.7278W/m^{2}C$

Substituting values:

$Q=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4100}+\frac{1}{3390.7278} } =1855.8923W/m^{2} C$

Answer:

1. Effect of air pressure

2. air- powered wheel chair

3. Pneumatic valves

Explanation:

1. In any pneumatic device, the mipact of air pressure to produce the moving effect on an heavy object is unexpected.

2. pneumatice demultiplexer when air in comprressed tank is allowed released to cause movement of the chair.

3. In industries, a pneumatic valve operates by force of air when actuated. A signal causes actuation of coil. When coil is energized, compressed high pressure air is allowe to enter in a small cylinder and cause operation of valve
