Answer:
the pressure at a closed valve attached to the tank 10 ft above its bottom is 37.88 psi
Explanation:
Given that;
depth 1 = 71 ft
depth 2 = 10 ft
pressure p = 17 psi = 2448 lb/ft²
depth h = 71 ft - 10 ft = 61 ft
we know that;
p = P_air + yh
where y is the specific weight of ethyl alcohol ( 49.3 lb/ft³ )
so we substitute;
p = 2448 + ( 49.3 × 61 )
= 2448 + 3007.3
= 5455.3 lb/ft³
= 37.88 psi
Therefore, the pressure at a closed valve attached to the tank 10 ft above its bottom is 37.88 psi
The correct statement is: a higher than a normal voltage drop could indicate high resistance. Technician B is correct.
<h3>Ohm's law</h3>
Ohm's law states that the current flowing through a metallic conductor is directly proportional to the voltage provided all physical conditions are constant. Mathematically, it is expressed as
V = IR
Where
V is the potential difference
I is the current
R is the resistance
<h3>Technician A</h3>
High resistance causes an increase in current flow
V = IR
Divide both side by I
R = V / I
Thus, technician A is wrong as high resistance suggest low current flow
<h3>Technician B</h3>
Higher than normal voltage drop could indicate high resistance
V = IR
Thus, technician B is correct as high voltage indicates high resistance
<h3>Conclusion </h3>
From the above illustration, we can see that technician B is correct
