Answer:

Explanation:

It means that you only need apply 1/4th of the actual force required to operate the lever as you have an mechanical advantage which permits you to do 4 times the work with the same amount of effort.

Explanation:

the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it, used in assessing the performance of a machine Is mechanical advantage

If u apply force 1N to lever it will generate a force of 4N

A fluid is flowing through a circulat tube at 0.4 kg/s. Tube inner surface is smooth with a diameter 0.014 m. Fluid density is 9

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The convection coefficient is $15456.48\ W/m^{2}K$

Solution:

Mass flow rate, $\dot{m} = 0.4\ kg$

Inner diameter of the tube, d = 0.014 m

Fluid density, $\rho_{f} = 990\ kg/m^{3}$

Specific Heat, C = 3845 J/K

Thermal Conductivity, K = 0.74

Prandtl Number, $P_{r} = 8.6$

Heat flux, $\dot{q} = 71,297\ W/m^{2}$

Viscosity, $\mu = 0.00079\ Ns/m^{2}$

Now,

To calculate the convection heat coefficient, h:

Determine the cross sectional area of the circular tube:

$A_{c} = \frac{\pi}{4}d^{2} = \frac{\pi}{4}\times (0.014)^{2} = 1.54\time 10^{- 4}\ m^{2}$

Determine the velocity of the fluid inside the tube by mass flow rate:

$\dot{m} = \rho_{f}A_{c}v$

$0.4 = 990\times 1.54\time 10^{- 4}v$

v = 2.624 m/s

Determine the Reynold's Number, $R_{e}$ :

$R_{e} = \frac{\rho_{f}dv}{\mu}$

$R_{e} = \frac{990\times 0.014\times 2.624}{0.00079} = 46036.253$

Thus it is clear that $R_{e}$ > 10,000 hence flow is turbulent.

Now,

Determine the Nusselt Number:

$N_{u} = 0.023R_{e}^{0.8}P_{r}^{0.4}$

$N_{u} = 0.023\times 46036.253^{0.8}\times 8.6^{0.4} = 292.42$

Also,

$N_{u} = \frac{dh}{K}$

where

h = convection coefficient

Now,

$292.42 = \frac{0.014\times h}{0.74}$

$h = 15456.48\ W/m^{2}K$

A truck driver is broadcasting at a frequency of 27.075 MHz with a CB (citizen's band) radio. Determine the wavelength of the el

Sergio [31]

Answer:

11m

Explanation:

Wavelength of a wave is the distance between successive crests and trough of a wave. It is represented mathematically as the ratio of the speed of the wave to its frequency. It can be expressed as;

Wavelength ¶ = wave speed (v) /frequency (f)

Given the speed of light c = 2.9979 10^8 m/s.

frequency of the radio wave = 27.075 MHz = 27.075×10^6Hz

Wavelength = 2.9979 10^8/27.075×10^6

Wavelength = 0.11×10^2

Wavelength = 11m

Therefore, the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave being used is 11m

Explain the purpose of pumping while running through a half pipe

scoray [572]

<span>The purpose of pumping is to increase overall velocity. The person drops down into a crouch while traversing the more-or-less flat bottom of the U-shaped pipe or bowl. Then, as he enters the sloped part of the ramp or bowl, called the transition, he straightens his legs and rises up. By raising his center of mass just at the beginning of the arc, the person gains energy and thereby increases his speed.</span>
