1) Name 5 factors that can lead to pressure drop in the displacement of a fluid being pumped through a pipeline.

Two common methods of improving fuel efficiency of a vehicle are to reduce the drag coefficient and the frontal area of the vehi

qaws [65]

Answer:

$\Delta V = 209.151\,L$ , $\Delta C = 217.517\,USD$

Explanation:

The drag force is equal to:

$F_{D} = C_{D}\cdot \frac{1}{2}\cdot \rho_{air}\cdot v^{2}\cdot A$

Where $C_{D}$ is the drag coefficient and $A$ is the frontal area, respectively. The work loss due to drag forces is:

$W = F_{D}\cdot \Delta s$

The reduction on amount of fuel is associated with the reduction in work loss:

$\Delta W = (F_{D,1} - F_{D,2})\cdot \Delta s$

Where $F_{D,1}$ and $F_{D,2}$ are the original and the reduced frontal areas, respectively.

$\Delta W = C_{D}\cdot \frac{1}{2}\cdot \rho_{air}\cdot v^{2}\cdot (A_{1}-A_{2})\cdot \Delta s$

The change is work loss in a year is:

$\Delta W = (0.3)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\cdot (1.20\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}})\cdot (27.778\,\frac{m}{s})^{2}\cdot [(1.85\,m)\cdot (1.75\,m) - (1.50\,m)\cdot (1.75\,m)]\cdot (25\times 10^{6}\,m)$

$\Delta W = 2.043\times 10^{9}\,J$

$\Delta W = 2.043\times 10^{6}\,kJ$

The change in chemical energy from gasoline is:

$\Delta E = \frac{\Delta W}{\eta}$

$\Delta E = \frac{2.043\times 10^{6}\,kJ}{0.3}$

$\Delta E = 6.81\times 10^{6}\,kJ$

The changes in gasoline consumption is:

$\Delta m = \frac{\Delta E}{L_{c}}$

$\Delta m = \frac{6.81\times 10^{6}\,kJ}{44000\,\frac{kJ}{kg} }$

$\Delta m = 154.772\,kg$

$\Delta V = \frac{154.772\,kg}{0.74\,\frac{kg}{L} }$

$\Delta V = 209.151\,L$

Lastly, the money saved is:

$\Delta C = \left(\frac{154.772\,kg}{0.74\,\frac{kg}{L} }\right)\cdot (1.04\,\frac{USD}{L} )$

$\Delta C = 217.517\,USD$

Calculate the amount of current flowing through a 75-watt light bulb that is connected to a 120-volt circuit in your home.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

I = 0.625 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of the light bulb, P = 75 W

Voltage of the circuit, V = 120 V

We need to find the current flowing through it. We know that, Power is given by :

$P=V\times I$

I is the electric current

$I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{75\ W}{120\ V}\\\\I=0.625\ A$

So, the current is 0.625 A.

A conical enlargement in a vertical pipeline is 5 ft long and enlarges the pipe diameter from 12 in. to 24 in. diameter. Calcula

makkiz [27]

Answer:

F_y = 151319.01N = 15.132 KN

Explanation:

From the linear momentum equation theory, since flow is steady, the y components would be;

-V1•ρ1•V1•A1 + V2•ρ2•V2•A2 = P1•A1 - P2•A2 - F_y

We are given;

Length; L = 5ft = 1.52.

Initial diameter;d1 = 12in = 0.3m

Exit diameter; d2 = 24 in = 0.6m

Volume flow rate of water; Q2 = 10 ft³/s = 0.28 m³/s

Initial pressure;p1 = 30 psi = 206843 pa

Thus,

initial Area;A1 = π•d1²/4 = π•0.3²/4 = 0.07 m²

Exit area;A2 = π•d2²/4 = π•0.6²/4 = 0.28m²

Now, we know that volume flow rate of water is given by; Q = A•V

Thus,

At exit, Q2 = A2•V2

So, 0.28 = 0.28•V2

So,V2 = 1 m/s

When flow is incompressible, we often say that ;

Initial mass flow rate = exit mass flow rate.

Thus,

ρ1 = ρ2 = 1000 kg/m³

Density of water is 1000 kg/m³

And A1•V1 = A2•V2

So, V1 = A2•V2/A1

So, V1 = 0.28 x 1/0.07

V1 = 4 m/s

So, from initial equation of y components;

-V1•ρ1•V1•A1 + V2•ρ2•V2•A2 = P1•A1 - P2•A2 - F_y

Where F_y is vertical force of enlargement pressure and P2 = 0

Thus, making F_y the subject;

F_y = P1•A1 + V1•ρ1•V1•A1 - V2•ρ2•V2•A2

Plugging in the relevant values to get;

F_y = (206843 x 0.07) + (1² x 1000 x 0.07) - (4² x 1000 x 0.28)

F_y = 151319.01N = 15.132 KN
