Water flows steadily through the pipe as shown below, such that the pressure at section (1) and at section (2) are 300 kPa and 1

00 kPa respectively. Determine the diameter of the pipe at section (2), D, if the velocity at section (1) is 20 m/sec and viscous effects are negligible.

Answer:

The velocity at section is approximately 42.2 m/s

Explanation:

For the water flowing through the pipe, we have;

The pressure at section (1), P₁ = 300 kPa

The pressure at section (2), P₂ = 100 kPa

The diameter at section (1), D₁ = 0.1 m

The height of section (1) above section (2), D₂ = 50 m

The velocity at section (1), v₁ = 20 m/s

Let 'v₂' represent the velocity at section (2)

According to Bernoulli's equation, we have;

z_1 + \dfrac{P_1}{\rho \cdot g} + \dfrac{v^2_1}{2 \cdot g} = z_2 + \dfrac{P_2}{\rho \cdot g} + \dfrac{v^2_2}{2 \cdot g}

Where;

ρ = The density of water = 997 kg/m³

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

z₁ = 50 m

z₂ = The reference = 0 m

By plugging in the values, we have;

50 \, m + \dfrac{300 \ kPa}{997 \, kg/m^3 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} + \dfrac{(20 \, m/s)^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} = \dfrac{100 \ kPa}{997 \, kg/m^3 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}50 m + 30.704358 m + 20.4081633 m = 10.234786 m + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}

50 m + 30.704358 m + 20.4081633 m - 10.234786 m = \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}

90.8777353 m = \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}

v₂² = 2 × 9.8 m/s² × 90.8777353 m

v₂² = 1,781.20361 m²/s²

v₂ = √(1,781.20361 m²/s²) ≈ 42.204308 m/s

The velocity at section (2), v₂ ≈ 42.2 m/s

In a certain chemical plant, a closed tank contains ethyl alcohol to a depth of 71 ft. Air at a pressure of 17 psi fills the gap
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

the pressure at a closed valve attached to the tank 10 ft above its bottom is 37.88 psi

Explanation:

Given that;

depth 1 = 71 ft

depth 2 = 10 ft

pressure p = 17 psi = 2448 lb/ft²

depth h = 71 ft - 10 ft = 61 ft

we know that;

p = P_air + yh

where y is the specific weight of ethyl alcohol ( 49.3 lb/ft³ )

so we substitute;

p = 2448 + ( 49.3 × 61 )

= 2448 + 3007.3

= 5455.3 lb/ft³

= 37.88 psi

Therefore, the pressure at a closed valve attached to the tank 10 ft above its bottom is 37.88 psi

A structural component in the form of a wide plate is to be fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane-strain fracture tough
jeyben [28]

Complete question:

A structural component in the form of a wide plate is to be fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 98.9 MPa root m (90 ksi root in.) and a yield strength of 860 MPa (125,000 psi). The flaw size resolution limit of the flaw detection apparatus is 3.0 mm (0.12 in.). If the design stress is one-half of the yield strength and the value of Y is 1.0, determine whether or not a critical flaw for this plate is subject to detection.

Answer:

Since the flaw 17mm is greater than 3 mm the critical flaw for this plate is subject to detection

so that critical flow is subject to detection  

Explanation:

We are given:

Plane strain fracture toughness K = 98.9 MPa \sqrt{m}

Yield strength Y = 860 MPa

Flaw detection apparatus = 3.0mm (12in)

y = 1.0

Let's use the expression:

oc = \frac{K}{Y \sqrt{pi * a}}

We already know

K= design

a = length of surface creak

Since we are to find the length of surface creak, we will make "a" subject of the formula in the expression above.

Therefore

a= \frac{1}{pi} * [\frac{k}{y*a}]^2

Substituting figures in the expression above, we have:

= \frac{1}{pi} * [\frac{98.9 MPa \sqrt{m}} {10 * \frac{860MPa}{2}}]^2

= 0.0168 m

= 17mm

Therefore, since the flaw 17mm > 3 mm the critical flow is subject to detection

PtichkaEL [24]

The correct answer is A. Earning a bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from a four-year university, completing an internship, and seeking a job at a private firm.

Explanation:

In the U.S. and many countries, the best to start a career is to enroll in a formal educational program at a university or college. This helps students learn concepts, theories, methods, etc. they need for their profession. Moreover, a degree such as a bachelor's degree is required by employers. In this context, the first step for Connor is to earn a bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering.

Besides this, an internship is recommended after earning a degree because this is the way students can gain real-life work experience, which is considered positive by employers. This means the next step should be an internship.

Finally, Connor can seek a job to design bridges and other buildings because after the degree and internship he will have the experience and knowledge required by employers and by the job.
