Water at 200C flows through a pipe of 10 mm diameter pipe at 1 m/s. Is the flow Turbulent ? a. Yes b. No

Degger [83]

Answer:

Yes, the flow is turbulent.

Explanation:

Reynolds number gives the nature of flow. If he Reynolds number is less than 2000 then the flow is laminar else turbulent.

Given:

Diameter of pipe is 10mm.

Velocity of the pipe is 1m/s.

Temperature of water is 200°C.

The kinematic viscosity at temperature 200°C is $1.557\times10^{-7}$ m2/s.

Calculation:

Step1

Expression for Reynolds number is given as follows:

$Re=\frac{vd}{\nu}$

Here, v is velocity, $\nu$ is kinematic viscosity, d is diameter and Re is Reynolds number.

Substitute the values in the above equation as follows:

$Re=\frac{vd}{\nu}$

$Re=\frac{1\times(10mm)(\frac{1m}{1000mm})}{1.557\times10^{-7}}$

Re=64226.07579

Thus, the Reynolds number is 64226.07579. This is greater than 2000.

Hence, the given flow is turbulent flow.

An escalator handles a steady load of 26 people per minute in elevating them from the first to the second floor through a vertic

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

$\eta = 70.711\,\%$

Explanation:

The power needed to make the escalator working is obtained by means of the Work-Energy Theorem:

$\dot W = \dot U_{g}$

$\dot W = \dot n \cdot m_{p}\cdot g \cdot \Delta y$

$\dot W = \left(26\,\frac{persons}{min}\right)\cdot (124\,lbm)\cdot \left(32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,lbf}{32.174\,\frac{lbm\cdot ft}{s^{2}} } \right)\cdot (27.5\,ft)$

$\dot W = 88660\,\frac{lbf\cdot ft}{min}\,\left(2.687\,hp\right)$

The mechanical efficiency of the escalator is:

$\eta = \frac{2.687\,hp}{3.8\,hp}\times 100\,\%$

$\eta = 70.711\,\%$

A person is planning a bungee jump from a 40 meter high bridge. Under the bridge is a river with crocodiles, so the person does

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a. l = 19.7m, b. 18.55m, c. Impact Force = 3889.84 N

Explanation:

The total energy of the system when the person is at top of the bridge is

Potential energy = mgh, Kinetic energy = 0

The total energy of the system when the person reaches just above the surface

Potential energy = 0, Kinetic energy = 0, Spring energy = ½ K X2, where k is the spring constant and X is the deflection

Applying conservation of energy

mgh = 0 + 0 + ½ K X²

80 x 9.81 x 40 = ½ (3600/l) X²

31392 = ½ (3600/l) X²

We can also conclude that

l+ X + 1.75 = 40

l + X = 38.25

a. Substitute the value of x from above into the energy conversion expression

31392 = ½ (3600/l)(38.25 - l)²

31392 x 2/3600 = (38.25 + l² – 2l(38.25))/l

17.44l = l2 – 76.5l + 38.25²

l² – 76.5l – 17.44l +1463.0625 = 0

Solving for l we get

L = 19.7

Hence, length of the rope is 19.7m

b. The deflection is calculated by using the relation between l and X

L + X = 38.25

X = 38.25 – 19.7 = 18.55m

c. The impact force is calculated using the impact force formula which relates the impact force with the deflection

F = KX

F = (3600/l) . X

F = (3600/19.7) . (18.55) = 3889.84 N

Thus, the impact force is 3889.84 N
