Larger molecules will move slower and smaller molecules will move faster. Did this answer your question?
Given:
Area of pool = 3m×4m
Diameter of orifice = 0.076m
Outlet Velocity = 6.3m/s
Accumulation velocity = 1.5cm/min
Required:
Inlet flowrate
Solution:
The problem can be solved by this general formula.
Accumulation = Inlet flowrate - Outlet flowrate
Accumulation velocity × Area of pool = Inlet flowrate - Outlet velocity × Area of orifice
First, we need to convert the units of the accumulation velocity into m/s to be consistent.
Accumulation velocity = 1.5cm/min × (1min/60s)×(1m/100cm)
Accumulation velocity = 0.00025 m/s
We then calculate the area of the pool and the area of the orifice by:
Area of pool = 3 × 4 m²
Area of pool = 12m²
Area of orifice = πd²/4 = π(0.076m)²/4
Area of orifice = 0.00454m²
Since we have all we need, we plug in the values to the general equation earlier
Accumulation velocity × Area of pool = Inlet flowrate - Outlet velocity × Area of orifice
0.00025 m/s × 12m² = Inlet flowrate - 6.3m/s × 0.00454m²
Transposing terms,
Inlet flowrate = 0.316 m³/s
We don't know that at all. The 3rd law says that the REaction is opposite and EQUAL to the action. We don't know where that "twice as much" comes from.
It would take more energy to reheat 12 cups because only 1 or 2 cups can fit in a microwave rather an than brewing 12 cups in a coffee pot.
