You are hired as the investigators to identify the root cause and describe what should have occurred based on the following info

rmation. The mass of jet fuel required to travel from Toronto to Edmonton is 22,300 kg. The fuel gage correctly indicated that the plane already had 7,682 L of jet fuel in the tank. The specific gravity of the jet fuel is 0.803. Using this information, the crew added 4,916 L of fuel and took off, only to run out of fuel and crash a short while later. Use your knowledge of dimensions and units to work out what went wrong.

Answer:

The mass of fuel added, which is 10,166.2 kg is less than 22,300 kg which is the mass of fuel required to travel from Toronto to Edmonton, the plane therefore crashed.

Explanation:

Since density ρ = m/v where m = mass of fuel and v = volume of fuel, we need to find the mass of each volume of fuel.

So, m = ρv now ρ = specific gravity × density of water = 0.803 × 1000 kg/m³ = 803 kg/m³.

To find the mass of the 7,682 L of fuel, its volume is 7,682 dm³ = 7,682 dm³ × 1 m³/1000 dm³ = 7.682 m³.

It's mass, m = 803 kg/m³ × 7.682 m³ = 6168.646 kg

To find the mass of the extra 4,916 L of fuel added, we have

m' = ρv' where v' = 4,916 L = 4,916 dm³ = 4916 dm³ × 1 m³/1000 dm³ = 4.916 m³

m' =  803 kg/m³ × 4.916 m³ = 3947.548 kg

So, the total mass of the fuel is m" = m + m' = 6168.646 kg + 3947.548 kg = 10116.194 kg ≅ 10,166.2 kg

<u>Since this mass of fuel added, which is 10,166.2 kg is less than 22,300 kg which is the mass of fuel required to travel from Toronto to Edmonton, the plane therefore crashed.</u>

The ratio of the volume of charge admitted at n. T. P. To the swept volume of the piston is called.
ikadub [295]

The ratio of the volume of charge admitted at n. T. P. To the swept volume of the piston is called volumetric efficiency.

<h3>What is volumetric efficiency?</h3>

Volumetric efficiency is the ratio of the volume of gas to that is filled to the displacement of the piston of the cylinder. It tells the efficiency of the compressor of a gas compressor.

The formula of the volumetric efficiency is, "ηV=Actual volumeSwept volume. ηV=VaVS." The meaning of NTP in volumetric efficiency is the ratio of volume.

Thus, the swept volume of the piston is called volumetric efficiency.

To learn more about volumetric efficiency, refer to the below link:

A flow of 12 m/s passes through a 6 m wide, 2 m deep rectangular channel with a bed slope of 0. 001. If the mean velocity of flo
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

manning's coefficient is 0.0357

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity of flow, v = 12 m/s

Width of the channel, b = 6 m

Depth of the channel, d = 2 m

bed slope, s = 0.001

mean velocity of flow, V = 1 m/s

now, the velocity is given as:

V= \frac{1}{n}R^{\frac{2}{3}}S^{\frac{1}{2}}

where,

n is the manning's coefficient

R is hydraulic mean depth

R = (Area of the channel) / (wetted Perimeter of the channel)

now,

R = (2 × 6) / ((2 × 2) + 6)

or

R = 12 / 10 = 1.2 m

now, on substituting the values in the equation for velocity, we get

1= \frac{1}{n}1.2^{\frac{2}{3}}(0.001)^{\frac{1}{2}}

or

n= 1.2^{\frac{2}{3}}(0.001)^{\frac{1}{2}}

or

n = 0.0357

hence, the value of manning's coefficient is 0.0357

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The ten numbers to be filled in the blanks are: 18, 7, 7, 11, 18, 36, 3, 8, 13, 50.

Explanation:

keeps on going to the left node until node->left == NULL;

now at Node 18;

left = right = 0; hence condition is not satisfied

18 is printed first.

the value 18 is returned .

Then we reach at 4;

from there we move to 7;

just like 18, similar things happen with 7 and 7 is printed, the value 7 is returned.

Now coming to Node 4,

left = 0, right = 7 ; hence the condition is satisfied & res = 7; 7 is printed.

For Node 16, left = 7 ; right = 11(but for this we visit 11 first and 11 is printed)

for 16; condition is satisfied; res = 7 + 11 = 18 ; 18 is printed

Now for 5; left = right = 18; the condition is satisfied; so res = 18 + 18 = 36; 36 is printed

Next we visit Node 3; 3 is printed & 3 is returned

Then Node 8 ; 8 is printed & 8 is returned

for Node 13; left = 3, right = 8 ; condition is not satisfied, 13 is printed.

For Node 50; left = 36 right = 13 ; condition is not satisfied hence 50 is printed.

So the order of printing is  18 7 7 11 18 36 3 8 13 50.
