Answer:

This can be achieved through the use of a built-in fiber-optic network of cables that deliver light and heat energy to the point of breakage.

Explanation:

Self-healing polymers are materials designed to aid the internal healing of materials like plastics, and metals. Shape-memory materials used in the making of plastic frames for glasses and sunglasses allow these materials to snap back into shape when they crack.

This is possible because heat is needed to help a deformed material regain its shape. Built-in fiber-optic network of cables serve the purpose of delivering heat to the deformed or cracked area, thus helping them to regain their shape.

Air flows at 45m/s through a right angle pipe bend with a constant diameter of 2cm. What is the overall force required to keep t

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

b)1.08 N

Explanation:

Given that

velocity of air V= 45 m/s

Diameter of pipe = 2 cm

Force exerted by fluid F

$F=\rho AV^2$

So force exerted in x-direction

$F_x=\rho AV^2$

$F_x=1.2\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.02^2\times 45^2$

F=0.763 N

So force exerted in y-direction

$F_y=\rho AV^2$

$F_y=1.2\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.02^2\times 45^2$

F=0.763 N

So the resultant force R

$R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}$

$R=\sqrt{0.763^2+0.763^2}$

R=1.079

So the force required to hold the pipe is 1.08 N.

You find an unnamed fluid in the lab we will call Fluid A. Fluid A has a specific gravity of 1.65 and a dynamic viscosity of 210

Naily [24]

Answer:

1.2727 stokes

Explanation:

specific gravity of fluid A = 1.65

Dynamic viscosity = 210 centipoise

<u>Calculate the kinematic viscosity of Fluid A </u>

First step : determine the density of fluid A

Pa = Pw * Specific gravity = 1000 * 1.65 = 1650 kg/m^3

next : convert dynamic viscosity to kg/m-s

210 centipoise = 0.21 kg/m-s

Kinetic viscosity of Fluid A = dynamic viscosity / density of fluid A

= 0.21 / 1650 = 1.2727 * 10^-4 m^2/sec

Convert to stokes = 1.2727 stokes
