One kilogram of water fills a 150-L rigid container at an initial pressure of 2 MPa. The container is then cooled to 40∘C. Deter

lukranit [14]

The pressure of water is 7.3851 kPa

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data,

V = 150× $10^{-3}$ $m^{3}$

m = 1 Kg

$P_{1}$ = 2 MPa

$T_{2}$ = 40°C

The waters specific volume is calculated:

$v_{1}$ = V/m

Here, the waters specific volume at initial condition is $v_{1}$ , the containers volume is V, waters mass is m.

$v_{1}$ = 150× $10^{-3}$ $m^{3}$ /1

$v_{1}$ = 0.15 $m^{3}$ / Kg

The temperature from super heated water tables used in interpolation method between the lower and upper limit for the specific volume corresponds 0.15 $m^{3}$ / Kg and 0.13 $m^{3}$ / Kg.

$T_{1}$ = 350+(400-350) $\frac{0.15-0.13}{0.1522-0.1386}$

$T_{1}$ = 395.17°C

Hence, the initial temperature is 395.17°C.

The volume is constant in the rigid container.

$v_{2}$ = $v_{1}$ = 0.15 $m^{3}$ / Kg

In saturated water labels for $T_{2}$ = 40°C.

$v_{f}$ = 0.001008 $m^{3}$ / Kg

$v_{g}$ = 19.515 $m^{3}$ / Kg

The final state is two phase region $v_{f}$ < $v_{2}$ < $v_{g}$ .

In saturated water labels for $T_{2}$ = 40°C.

$P_{2}$ = $P_{Sat}$ = 7.3851 kPa

$P_{2}$ = 7.3851 kPa

Given a two-dimensional steady inviscid air flow field with no body forces described by the velocity field given below. Assuming

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

the pressure gradient in the x direction = -15.48Pa/m

Explanation:

The concept of partial differentiation was used in the determination of the expression for u and v.
each is partially differentiated with respect to x and the appropriate substitution was done to get the value of the pressure gradient as shown in the attached file.

Firefighters are holding a nozzle at the end of a hose while trying to extinguish a fire. The nozzle exit diameter is 8 cm, and

ivanzaharov [21]

Question

Determine the average water exit velocity

Answer:

53.05 m/s

Explanation:

Given information

Volume flow rate, $Q=16 m^{3}/min$

Diameter d= 8cm= 0.08 m

Assumptions

The flow is jet flow hence momentum-flux correction factor is unity
Gravitational force is not considered
The flow is steady, frictionless and incompressible
Water is discharged to the atmosphere hence pressure is ignored

We know that Q=AV and making v the subject then

$V=\frac {Q}{A}$ where V is the exit velocity and A is area

Area, $A=\frac {\pi d^{2}{4}$ where d is the diameter

By substitution

$V=\frac {16\times 4}{\pi 0.08^{2}}=3183.098862 m/min$

To convert v to m/s from m/s, we simply divide it by 60 hence

$V=\frac {3183.098862 m/min}{60 s}=53.0516477 m/s\approx 53.05 m/s$

Fibonacci sequence has many applications in Computer Science. Write a program to generate Fibonacci numbers as many as desired.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The Python Code for Fibonacci Sequence is :

# Function for nth Fibonacci number

def Fibonacci(n):

if n<0:

print("Incorrect input")

# First Fibonacci number is 0

elif n==0:

return 0

# Second Fibonacci number is 1

elif n==1:

return 1

else:

return Fibonacci(n-1)+Fibonacci(n-2)

# Driver Program

print(Fibonacci(9))

Explanation:

The Fibonacci numbers are the numbers in the following integer sequence.

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ……..

In mathematical terms, the sequence Fn of Fibonacci numbers is defined by the recurrence relation

Fn = Fn-1 + Fn-2

with seed values

F0 = 0 and F1 = 1.

Discuss the difference between the observed and calculated values. Is this error? If yes, what is the source?

Scrat [10]

Answer and Explanation:

In any experiment, the observed values are the actual values obtained in any experiment.

The calculated values are the values that are measured by using the observed values in a formula.

The observed values are primary values whereas the calculated values are the secondary values as calaculations are made using observed values.

Yes, if the observed values are of low accuracy.

The values should be recorded with proper care and attention in order to avoid any error.
