Answer: 2.93 ft/sec

Explanation:  Calculate the volume/sec entering from the two inlets (Pipes 1 and 2), add them, and then calculate the flow in Pipe 3.

The table illustrates the approach.  I calculated the volume of each pipe for a 1 foot section with the indicated diameters, divided by 2 for the radius of each  using  V = πr²h.  Units of V are in^3/foot length.  Now we can multiply that volume by the flow rate, in ft/sec, to obtain the flow rate in in^3/sec.  

Add the two rates from Pipes 1 and 2 (62.14 in^3/sec) to arrive at the flow rate for Pipe 3 necessary to keep the water level constant.  Calculate the volume of 1 foot of Pipe 3 (21.21 in^3/foot) and then divide this into the inflow sum of 62.14 in^3/sec to find the flow rate of Pipe 3 (in feet/sec) necessary to keep the water level constant.

That is 2.93 ft/sec.

diamong [38]

Answer:

M=0.0411 kg/h or 4.1*10^{-2} kg/h

Explanation:

We have to combine the following formula to find the mass yield:

M=JAt

M=-DAt(ΔC/Δx)

The diffusion coefficient : D=6.0*10^{-8} m/s^{2}

The area : A=0.25 m^{2}

Time : t=3600 s/h

ΔC: (0.64-3.0)kg/m^{3}

Δx: 3.1*10^{-3}m

Now substitute the  values

M=-DAt(ΔC/Δx)

M=-(6.0*10^{-8} m/s^{2})(0.25 m^{2})(3600 s/h)[(0.64-3.0kg/m^{3})(3.1*10^{-3}m)]

M=0.0411 kg/h or 4.1*10^{-2} kg/h

Tanya [424]

Answer:

a) 23.89 < -25.84 Ω

b) 31.38 < 25.84 A

c) 0.9323 leading

Explanation:

A) Calculate the load Impedance

current on load side = 0.75 p.u

power factor angle = 25.84

I_{load} = 0.75 < 25.84°

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

<u>B) Find the input current on the primary side in real units </u>

load current in primary = 31.38 < 25.84 A

<u>C) find the input power factor </u>

power factor = 0.9323 leading
