Answer:

The correct option is;

To be able to switch between different heads quickly and easily

Explanation:

A screwdriver is a tool or device that has a grip handle which surrounds an extension shaft that has a forged tip that fits into the complementary groove on a screw head such that by turning the handle while the forged head of the screwdriver sits in a screw head, the screw is turned

A convertible screw driver is built with the capability to easily change the tip or other attributes of the screwdriver quickly.

How much cornfield area would be required if you were to replace all the oil consumed in the United States with ethanol from cor

zaharov [31]

Answer:

2377.35 km

Explanation:

Given the following;

1. A cornfield is 1.5% efficient at converting radiant energy into stored chemical potential energy;

2. The conversion from corn to ethanol is 17% efficient;

3. A 1.2:1 ratio for farm equipment to energy production

4. A 50% growing season and,

5. 200 W/m2 solar insolation.

As per our assumptions,1.2/1 is the ratio for farm equipment to energy production,

So USA need around 45.45% (1/(1+1.2) replacement of fuel energy production which is nearly about = 0.4545*10^{20} J/year = \frac{0.4545*10^{20}}{365*24*3600}=1.44121*10^{12} J/sec

Growing season is only part of year ( Given = 50%),

Net efficiency = 1.5%*17%*50%=0.015*0.17*0.5=0.001275 = 0.1275%

Hence , Actual Energy replacement (Efficiency),

=\frac{1.44121*10^{12}}{0.001275} = 1.13*10^{15} J/sec=1.13*10^{15} W

As per assumption (5),

\because 200 W/m2 solar insolation arequired,

So USA required corn field area = 1.13*10^{15}/200 = 5.65*10^{12} m^{2}

Hence, length of each side of a square,

= (5.65*10^{12} )^{0.5} = 2377.35 km

A pipeline (NPS = 14 in; schedule = 80) has a length of 200 m. Water (15℃) is flowing at 0.16 m3/s. What is the pipe head loss f

dangina [55]

Answer:

Head loss is 1.64

Explanation:

Given data:

Length (L) = 200 m

Discharge (Q) = 0.16 m3/s

According to table of nominal pipe size , for schedule 80 , NPS 14, pipe has diameter (D)= 12.5 in or 31.8 cm 0.318 m

We know, $head\ loss = \frac{f L V^2}{( 2 g D)}$

where, f = Darcy friction factor

V = flow velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

We know, flow rate Q = A x V

solving for V

$V = \frac{Q}{A}$

$= \frac{0.16}{\frac{\pi}{4} (0.318)^2} = 2.015 m/s$

obtained Darcy friction factor

calculate Reynold number (Re) ,

$Re = \frac{\rho V D}{\mu}$

where, $\rho$ = density of water

$\mu$ = Dynamic viscosity of water at 15 degree C = 0.001 Ns/m2

so reynold number is

$Re = \frac{1000\times 2.015\times 0.318}{0.001}$

= 6.4 x 10^5

For Schedule 80 PVC pipes , roughness (e) is 0.0015 mm

Relative roughness (e/D) = 0.0015 / 318 = 0.00005

from Moody diagram, for Re = 640000 and e/D = 0.00005 , Darcy friction factor , f = 0.0126

Therefore head loss is

$HL = \frac{0.0126 (200)(2.015)^2}{( 2 \times 9.81 \times 0.318)}$

HL = 1.64 m

Which of the following would require the filing of an EIS? a. expansion of an airport in a national park b. allowing snowmobiles

alekssr [168]

Answer:

d. All of the above would require an EIS.

Explanation:

A document prepared with the aim of describing the impacts of suggested operations on the environment is an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). There was a mistake. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is therefore a report describing the environmental effects resulting from a current action. All of the activities above would have an effect on the environment and therefore must fill an EIS
