Missing part

The options are:

A. You will be exposed to splashes of the material.

B. You will have to handle the material.

C. There are high atmospheric concentrations of the material.

D. None of the above.

Answer:

None of the above

Explanation:

Structural firefighting protective clothing can't give adequate protection when one is exposed to splashes of the material. Moreover, it can't help in a situation where one is required to handle the material or when there are high atmospheric concentrations of the material.

SFC may be used when the following conditions are met:

• Contact with splashes of extremely hazardous materials is unlikely.

• Total atmospheric concentrations do not contain high levels of chemicals toxic to the skin.

• There are no adverse effects from chemical exposure to small areas of unprotected skin.

• Live victims who are in need of rescue, such as those found in a terrorist attack.

Water leaves a penstock (the flow path through a hydroelectric dam) at a velocity of 100 ft/s. How deep is the water behind the

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

155fts

Explanation:

We apply the bernoulli's equation to get the depth of water.

We have the following information

P1 = pressure at top water surface = 0

V1 = velocity at too water surface = 0

X1 = height of water surface = h

Hf = friction loss = 0

P2 = pressure at exit = 0

V2 = velocity at exit if penstock = 100ft/s

X2 = height of penstock = 0

g = acceleration due to gravity = 32.2ft/s²

Applying these values to the equation

0 + 0 + h = 0 + v2²/2g +0 + 0

= h = 100²/2x32.2

= 10000/64.4

= 155.28ft

= 155

Suppose that you can throw a projectile at a large enough v0 so that it can hit a target a distance R downrange. Given that you

viktelen [127]

Answer:

$\theta_1=15^o\\\theta_2=75^o$

Explanation:

<u>Projectile Motion</u>

In projectile motion, there are two separate components of the acceleration, velocity and displacement. The horizontal component has zero acceleration (assuming no friction), and the acceleration in the vertical direction is always the acceleration of gravity. The basic formulas are shown below:

$V_x=V_{ox}=V_ocos\theta$

Where $\theta$ is the angle of launch respect to the positive horizontal direction and Vo is the initial speed.

$V_y=V_{oy}-gt=V_osin\theta-gt$

The horizontal and vertical distances are, respectively:

$x=V_{o}cos\theta t$

$\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

The total flight time can be found as that when y = 0, i.e. when the object comes back to ground (or launch) level. From the above equation we find

$\displaystyle t_f=\frac{2V_osin\theta}{g}$

Using this time in the horizontal distance, we find the Range or maximum horizontal distance:

$\displaystyle R=\frac{V_o^2sin2\theta}{g}$

Let's solve for $\theta$

$\displaystyle sin2\theta=\frac{R.g}{V_o^2}$

This is the general expression to determine the angles at which the projectile can be launched to hit the target. Recall the angle can have to values for fixed positive values of its sine:

$\displaystyle \theta_1=\frac{asin\left(\frac{R.g}{V_o^2}\right)}{2}$

$\displaystyle \theta_2=\frac{180^o-asin\left(\frac{R.g}{V_o^2}\right)}{2}$

Or equivalently:

$\theta_2=90^o-\theta_1$

Given Vo=37 m/s and R=70 m

$\displaystyle \theta_1=\frac{asin\left(\frac{70\times 9.8}{37^2}\right)}{2}$

$\theta_1=15^o$

And

$\theta_2=90^o-15^o=75^o$

An adiabatic air compressor compresses 10 L/s of air at 120 kPa and 20 degree C to 1000 kPa and 300 degree C.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

work=281.4KJ/kg

Power=4Kw

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve follow the steps below!

1. Find the density of the air at the entrance using the equation for ideal gases

$density=\frac{P}{RT}$

where

P=pressure=120kPa

T=20C=293k

R= 0.287 kJ/(kg*K)= gas constant ideal for air

$density=\frac{120}{(0.287)(293)}=1.43kg/m^3$

2.find the mass flow by finding the product between the flow rate and the density

m=(density)(flow rate)

flow rate=10L/s=0.01m^3/s

m=(1.43kg/m^3)(0.01m^3/s)=0.0143kg/s

3. Please use the equation the first law of thermodynamics that states that the energy that enters is the same as the one that must come out, we infer the following equation, note = remember that power is the product of work and mass flow

Work

w=Cp(T1-T2)

Where

Cp= specific heat for air=1.005KJ/kgK

w=work

T1=inlet temperature=20C

T2=outlet temperature=300C

w=1.005(300-20)=281.4KJ/kg

Power

W=mw

W=(0.0143)(281.4KJ/kg)=4Kw
