Answer:

Obviously you shouldn't rely just on the meter for your safety. You'd disconnect wall fuses or kill main switches before you start, using the meter just gives you some extra protection: with the meter you might notice for example that you've disconnected the wrong fuse and the unit is still live.

Hope it helps! :)

A gear train has two gears. The driver gear has 8 teeth and a diametral pitch of 6 teeth/inch. the follower gear has 24 teeth. W

Sliva [168]

Answer:

18 teeth/inch

Explanation:

Given that: i. driver gear has 8 teeth and diametral pitch of 6 teeth/inch.

ii. follower gear has 24 teeth.

Let the followers diametral pitch be represented by x.

Then,

8 teeth ⇒ 6 teeth/inch

24 teeth ⇒ x teeth/inch

So that;

x = $\frac{24 x 6}{8}$

= $\frac{144}{8}$

= 18 teeth/inch

The diametral is 18 teeth/inch

A hydraulic jump is induced in an 80 ft wide channel.The water depths on either side of the jump are 1 ft and 10 ft.Please calcu

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

a) 42.08 ft/sec

b) 3366.33 ft³/sec

c) 0.235

d) 18.225 ft

e) 3.80 ft

Explanation:

Given:

b = 80ft

y1 = 1 ft

y2 = 10ft

a) Let's take the formula:

$\frac{y2}{y1} = \frac{1}{5} * \sqrt{1 + 8f^2 - 1}$

$10*2 = \sqrt{1 + 8f^2 - 1$

1 + 8f² = (20+1)²

= 8f² = 440

f² = 55

f = 7.416

For velocity of the faster moving flow, we have :

$\frac{V_1}{\sqrt{g*y_1}} = 7.416$

$V_1 = 7.416 *\sqrt{32.2*1}$

V1 = 42.08 ft/sec

b) the flow rate will be calculated as

Q = VA

VA = V1 * b *y1

= 42.08 * 80 * 1

= 3366.66 ft³/sec

c) The Froude number of the sub-critical flow.

V2.A2 = 3366.66

Where A2 = 80ft * 10ft

Solving for V2, we have:

$V_2 = \frac{3666.66}{80*10}$

= 4.208 ft/sec

Froude number, F2 =

$\frac{V_2}{g*y_2} = \frac{4.208}{32.2*10}$

F2 = 0.235

d) $El = \frac{(y_2 - y_1)^3}{4*y_1*y_2}$

$El = \frac{(10-1)^3}{4*1*10}$

$= \frac{9^3}{40}$

= 18.225ft

e) for critical depth, we use :

$y_c = [\frac{(\frac{3366.66}{80})^2}{32.2}]^1^/^3$

= 3.80 ft
