Answer:

Each wattmeter measures a line-to-line voltage between two of the three power supply lines. In this configuration, the total power, watts is accurately measured by the algebraic sum of the two wattmeter values. Pt = P1 + P2. This holds true if the system is balanced or unbalanced.

An example of Ferrous alloy is Brass a)-True b)-False

djyliett [7]

Answer: False

Explanation: No, brass is not a ferrous alloy.

Ferrous alloys are those alloy which contain iron like cast iron, steel, strain-less steel, high carbon steel. Brass on the other hand does not contain any composition. of iron hence it can not be considered as a ferrous alloy. Brass comes under the category of non- ferrous made with a composition of copper and zinc, however their proportion is not strict and we can add other elements like aluminium or lead to alter its durability or corrosiveness.

120 litres of water is discharge from container in 25 seconds. Find the rate of discharge in cumecs.if the discharge took place

notsponge [240]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Rate of discharge in cumecs: <u>0.0048m³/s</u>.

Velocity flow: <u>24m/s</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<h3>1. Find the rate of discharge in cumecs.</h3>

a. Convert from litres to m³.
120L*1000= 120000mL

120000mL=120000cm³

120000cm³/100³=0.12 m³.

b. Rate of discharge.

<em>If 0.12 m³ where discharged in 25 seconds, the rate of discharge is:</em>

0.12m³/25s = 0.0048m³/s.

<em />

<h3>2. Find the velocity flow.</h3>

Let's refer to the fluid mechanics equation that relates volume flow, area and velocity. This is the formula:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=Av$ ; where the expression $\frac{dV}{dt}$ is the volume flow rate (in m³/s); A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe (in m²), and v is the velocity flow (in m/s).

a. Solve the equation for v.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=Av\\ \\(\frac{dV}{dt})/A=v\\ \\v=(\frac{dV}{dt})/A$

b. Calculate the cross-sectional area of the pipe.

<em>The cross-sectional area of the pipe is a circle. Hence, the formula of this area is:</em>

$A=\pi r^{2}$

<em>We'll have to convert the diameter to meters, because the formula for flow velocity needs the area in m². Let's go ahead and do that.</em>

<em /> $50mm/1000=0.05m$ .

<em>We were given the diameter, and the formula uses the radius, but the radius is just half of the diameter, therefore, we can substitute in toe formula like this:</em>

$A=\pi (\frac{0.05}{2} )^{2}=0.0020m^{2}$

c. Substitute in the new expression for velocity flow and calculate.

$v=(\frac{dV}{dt})/A\\ \\v=(\frac{0.048m^{3} }{1s})/(0.0020m^{2} )\\\\ v= 24m/s$

Rank the magnitudes of the diffusion coefficients from greatest to least for the following systems:(a) Cr in Fe at 600°C; (b) C

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rank of the magnitude of the diffusion coefficient from greatest to least is as follows:

C in Fe at 900°C > Cr in Fe at 900°C > Cr in Fe at 600°C

Reason

C in Fe is an interstitial impurity while Cr in Fe is a substutional impurity.Therefore interstitial impurity occurs in C in Fe systems,while substutitional diffusion occurs in Cr in Fe system.Interstitial is much faster than substitutional diffusion hence the order

Also with increasing temperature magnitude of diffusion coefficient increases,due to the relation.

D = D₀exp(-Qd/RT)

Where D₀=Temperature independent per exponential

Qd= The activation energy for diffusion

R= Universal gas constant

T=absolute temperature
