Answer:

$ 30

Explanation:

Capacity of tank = 12 gallon

Cost of one gallon = $ 2.50

The cost of 12 gallon = 12 x 2.50 = $ 30

Thus, the cost of 12 gallon fuel is $ 30.

Answer:

$ 18.75            

Explanation:

given,                                              

capacity of the Dave’s car = 12 gallons

Assuming that the tank is 3/8 full before

Cost of gas per gallon =  $2.50 per gallon of gas

Volume Dave have to fill                      

       =1 - \dfrac{3}{8}                          

       =\dfrac{5}{8} of full tank              

       =\dfrac{5}{8}\times 12              

volume Dave have to fill = 7.5 gallons          

total money Dave spent                  

     = 7.5 gallons x $2.50                

     = $ 18.75                                            

Dave have to spend $ 18.75 to fill tank to it capacity.

A centrifugal pump is operating at a flow rate of 1 m3/s and a head of 20 m. If the specific weight of water is 9800 N/m3 and th
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

<em>The power required by the pump is nearly 230.588 kW</em>

Explanation:

Flow rate of the pump Q = 1 m^3/s

the head flow H = 20 m

specific weight of water γ = 9800 N/m^3

efficiency of the pump η = 85%

First note that specific gravity of water is the product of the density of water and acceleration due to gravity.

γ = ρg

where ρ is density. For water its value is 1000 kg/m^3

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

The power to lift this water at this rate will be gotten from the equation

P = ρgQH

but ρg = γ

therefore,

P = γQH

imputing values, we'll have

P = 9800 x 1 x 20 = 196000 W

But the centrifugal pump that will be used will only be able to lift this amount of water after the efficiency factor has been considered. The power of pump needed must be greater than this power.

we can say that

196000 W is 85% of the power of the pump power needed, therefore

196000 = 85% of P_{p}

where P_{p} is the power of the pump needed

85% = 0.85

196000 = 0.85P_{p}

P_{p} = 196000/0.85 = 230588.24 W

<em>Pump power = 230.588 kW</em>
