Answer:
The conversion factor is 0.00223 ( 1 gallon per minute equals 0.00223 cubic feet per second)
Explanation:
Since the given volume flow rate is gallons per minute.
We know that 1 gallon = 3.785 liters and
1 minute = 60 seconds
Let the flow rate be
Now replacing the gallon and the minute by the above values we get
Thus
Now since we know that 1 liter =
Using this in above relation we get
From the above relation we can see that flow rate of 1 gallons per minute equals flow rate of 0.00223 cubic feet per second. Thus the conversion factor is 0.00223.
Answer: To show his father what he had done
Explanation:
Percy Jackson is the son of the great Greek god of the seas, Poseidon. He did not however, know this for a long time. After he finds out, his life becomes more exciting as he embarks on many adventures.
According to Grover who is his best friend and guardian, Percy sent Medusa's head to Mount Olympus to show his father what he had done so that Poseidon would acknowledge and be proud of him.
Answer:
The diameter is 50mm
Explanation:
The answer is in two stages. At first the torque (or twisting moment) acting on the shaft and needed to transmit the power needs to be calculated. Then the diameter of the shaft can be obtained using another equation that involves the torque obtained above.
T=(P×60)/(2×pi×N)
T is the Torque
P is the the power to be transmitted by the shaft; 40kW or 40×10³W
pi=3.142
N is the speed of the shaft; 250rpm
T=(40×10³×60)/(2×3.142×250)
T=1527.689Nm
Diameter of a shaft can be obtained from the formula
T=(pi × SS ×d³)/16
Where
SS is the allowable shear stress; 70MPa or 70×10⁶Pa
d is the diameter of the shaft
Making d the subject of the formula
d= cubroot[(T×16)/(pi×SS)]
d=cubroot[(1527.689×16)/(3.142×70×10⁶)]
d=0.04808m or 48.1mm approx 50mm
Answer:
Δ enthalpy = -23 Btu/Ibm
Explanation:
Given data:
Pressure ( P1 ) = 250 psi
Initial Temperature ( T1 ) = 175°F
Final temperature ( T2 ) = 20°F
<u>Calculate the change in the enthalpy of R-134a </u>
From R-134 table
h1 = 129.85 Btu/Ibm
s1 = 0.23281 Btu/Ibm.R
note : entropy is constant
hence ; s1 = s2
by interpolation ; h2 = 106.95
Δ enthalpy = h2 - h1
= ( 106.95 - 129.85 ) = -23 Btu/Ibm
