This question is incomplete, the complete question as well as the missing diagram is uploaded below;

Consider a mixing tank with a volume of 4 m³. Glycerin flows into a mixing tank through pipe A with an average velocity of 6 m/s, and oil flow into the tank through pipe B at 3 m/s. Determine the average density of the mixture that flows out through the pipe at C. Assume uniform mixing of the fluids occurs within the 4 m³ tank.

Take $p_o$ = 880 kg/m³ and $p_{glycerol$ = 1260 kg/m³

Answer:

the average density of the mixture that flows out through the pipe at C is 1167.8 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given that;

Inlet velocity of Glycerin, $V_A$ = 6 m/s

Inlet velocity of oil, $V_B$ = 3 m/s

Density velocity of glycerin, $p_{glycerol$ = 1260 kg/m³

Density velocity of glycerin, Take $p_o$ = 880 kg/m³

Volume of tank V = 4 m

from the diagram;

Diameter of glycerin pipe, $d_A$ = 100 mm = 0.1 m

Diameter of oil pipe, $d_B$ = 80 mm = 0.08 m

Diameter of outlet pipe $d_C$ = 120 mm = 0.12 m

Now, Appling the discharge flow equation;

$Q_A + Q_B = Q_C$

$A_Av_A + A_Bv_B = A_Cv_C$

π/4 × ( $d_A$ )² $v_A$ + π/4 × ( $d_B$ )² $v_B$ = π/4 × ( $d_C$ )² $v_C$

we substitute

π/4 × (0.1 )² × 6 + π/4 × (0.08 )² × 3 = π/4 × (0.12)² $v_C$

0.04712 + 0.0150796 = 0.0113097 $v_C$

0.0621996 = 0.0113097 $v_C$

$v_C$ = 0.0621996 / 0.0113097

$v_C$ = 5.5 m/s

Now we apply the mass flow rate condition

$m_A + m_B = m_C$

$p_{glycerin}A_Av_A + p_0A_Bv_B = pA_Cv_C$

so we substitute

1260 × π/4 × (0.1 )² × 6 + 880 × π/4 × (0.08 )² × 3 = p × π/4 × (0.12)² × 5.5

1260 × 0.04712 + 880 × 0.0150796 = p × 0.06220335

59.3712 + 13.27 = 0.06220335p

72.6412 = 0.06220335p

p = 72.6412 / 0.06220335

p = 1167.8 kg/m³

Therefore, the average density of the mixture that flows out through the pipe at C is 1167.8 kg/m³

A total of 245 kip force is applied to a set of 10 similar bolts. If the spring constant of each bolt is 0.4 Mlb/in and that of

zubka84 [21]

Answer: The net force in every bolt is 44.9 kip

Explanation:

Given that;

External load applied = 245 kip

number of bolts n = 10

External Load shared by each bolt (P_E) = 245/10 = 24.5 kip

spring constant of the bolt Kb = 0.4 Mlb/in

spring constant of members Kc = 1.6 Mlb/in

combined stiffness factor C = Kb / (kb+kc) = 0.4 / ( 0.4 + 1.6) = 0.4 / 2 = 0.2 Mlb/in

Initial pre load Pi = 40 kip

now for Bolts; both pre load Pi and external load P_E are tensile in nature, therefore we add both of them

External Load on each bolt P_Eb = C × PE = 0.2 × 24.5 = 4.9 kip

So Total net Force on each bolt Fb = P_Eb + Pi

Fb = 4.9 kip + 40 kip

Fb = 44.9 kip

Therefore the net force in every bolt is 44.9 kip

The structure of a house is such that it loses heat at a rate of 4500kJ/h per °C difference between the indoors and outdoors. A

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

15.24°C

Explanation:

The quality of any heat pump pumping heat from cold to hot place is determined by its coefficient of performance (COP) defined as

$COP=\frac{Q_{in}}{W}$

Where Q_{in} is heat delivered into the hot place, in this case, the house, and W is the work used to pump heat

You can think of this quantity as similar to heat engine's efficiency

In our case, the COP of our heater is

$COP_{heater} = \frac{\frac{4500\ kJ}{3600\ s} *(T_{house}-T_{out})}{4\ kW}$

Where T_{house} = 24°C and T_{out} is temperature outside

To achieve maximum heating, we will have to use the most efficient heat pump, and, according to the second law of thermodynamics, nothing is more efficient that Carnot Heat Pump

Which has COP of:

$COP_{carnot}=\frac{T_{house}}{T_{house}-T_{out}}$

So we equate the COP of our heater with COP of Carnot heater

$\frac{1.25 *(T_{house}-T_{out})}{4}=\frac{T_{house}}{T_{house}-T_{out}}$

Rearrange the equation

$\frac{1.25}{4}(24-T_{out})^2-24=0$

Solve this simple quadratic equation, and you should get that the lowest outdoor temperature that could still allow heat to be pumped into your house would be

15.24°C

A container filled with a sample of an ideal gas at the pressure of 150 Kpa. The gas is compressed isothermally to one-third of

lyudmila [28]

Answer: c) 450 kPa

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$ (At constant temperature and number of moles)

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 150 kPa

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = ?

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = v L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = $\frac{v}{3}L$

$150\times v=P_2\times \frac{v}{3}$

$P_2=450kPa$

Therefore, the new pressure of the gas will be 450 kPa.

Which of the following describes design components that deal with the outward appearance or beauty of an object?

lisov135 [29]

Aesthetic elements are the components that are added to the design to be considered pleasing to the eye.

<h3>What are aesthetic elements?</h3>

They are those characteristics of an object that deal with the outward appearance or beauty of an object, that is, they are those elements that make it valuable, appreciable, relevant or transcendent.

To do this, the qualities must be in the design of the object but must also be perceived by the consumer, the aesthetic being what we like to perceive in objects.

Therefore, we can conclude that aesthetic elements are the components that are added to the design to be considered pleasing to the eye.
