Why might construction crews want to install pipes before the foundation is poured?

I’m a concrete mason myself and I can tell you it is a pain in the butt to Roto hammer a hole into the concrete to put the pipe in it’s a lot easier to just pour the concrete around it

A turbine operates at steady state, and experiences a heat loss. 1.1 kg/s of water flows through the system. The inlet is mainta

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

$\dot W_{out} = 399.47\,kW$

Explanation:

The turbine is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics:

$-\dot Q_{out} -\dot W_{out} + \dot m\cdot (h_{in}-h_{out}) = 0$

The work done by the turbine is:

$\dot W_{out} = \dot m \cdot (h_{in}-h_{out})-\dot Q_{out}$

The properties of the water are obtained from property tables:

Inlet (Superheated Steam)

$P = 10\,MPa$

$T = 520\,^{\textdegree}C$

$h = 3425.9\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

Outlet (Superheated Steam)

$P = 1\,MPa$

$T = 280\,^{\textdegree}C$

$h = 3008.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

The work output is:

$\dot W_{out} = \left(1.1\,\frac{kg}{s}\right)\cdot \left(3425.9\,\frac{kJ}{kg} -3008.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}\right) - 60\,kW$

$\dot W_{out} = 399.47\,kW$

What's a disadvantage of highest MERV-rated filters?

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

3) the pressure drop across high MERV filters is significant.

Explanation:

MERV (Minimum-Efficiency Reporting Value) is used to measure the efficiency of filter to remove particles. A filter of high MERV can filter smaller particles but this causes an increase in reduced air flow that is an increase in pressure drop. High MERV filters capture more particles causing them to get congested faster and thereby increasing pressure drop.

Excessive pressure drop can cause overheating and lead to damage of the filter. The pressure drop can be reduced by increasing the surface area of the filter.

"Write a statement that outputs variable numItems. End with a newline. Program will be tested with different input values."

kirill [66]

Answer:

The solution code is written in Java.

System.out.println(numItems);

Explanation:

Java println() method can be used to display any string on the console terminal. We can use println() method to output the value held by variable numItems. The numItems is passed as the input parameter to println() and this will output the value of numItems to console terminal and at the same time the output with be ended with a newline automatically.
