How high a building could fire hoses effectively spray from the ground? Fire hose pressures are around 1 MPa. (It is also said t
Mrac [35]

Answer:

z_{2} = 91.640\,m

Explanation:

The phenomenon can be modelled after the Bernoulli's Principle, in which the sum of heads related to pressure and kinetic energy on ground level is equal to the head related to gravity.

\frac{P_{1}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}= z_{2}+\frac{P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g}

The velocity of water delivered by the fire hose is:

v_{1} = \frac{(300\,\frac{gal}{min} )\cdot(\frac{3.785\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot(\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.3\,m)^{2}}

v_{1} = 0.267\,\frac{m}{s}

The maximum height is cleared in the Bernoulli's equation:

z_{2}= \frac{P_{1}-P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}

z_{2}= \frac{1\times 10^{6}\,Pa-101.325\times 10^{3}\,Pa}{(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )} + \frac{(0.267\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )}

z_{2} = 91.640\,m

The time to half-maximum voltage is how long it takes the capacitor to charge halfway. Based on your experimental results, how l
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Time taken for the capacitor to charge to 0.75 of its maximum capacity = 2 × (Time take for the capacitor to charge to half of its capacity)

Explanation:

The charging of a capacitor/the build up of its voltage follows an exponential progression and is given by

V(t) = V₀ [1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ]

where k = (1/time constant)

when V(t) = V₀/2

(1/2) = 1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ

e⁻ᵏᵗ = 0.5

In e⁻ᵏᵗ = In 0.5 = - 0.693

-kt = - 0.693

kt = 0.693

t = (0.693/k)

Recall that k = (1/time constant)

Time to charge to half of max voltage = T(1/2)

T(1/2) = 0.693 (Time constant)

when V(t) = 0.75

0.75 = 1 - e⁻ᵏᵗ

e⁻ᵏᵗ = 0.25

In e⁻ᵏᵗ = In 0.25 = -1.386

-kt = - 1.386

kt = 1.386

t = 1.386(time constant) = 2 × 0.693(time constant)

Recall, T(1/2) = 0.693 (Time constant)

t = 2 × T(1/2)

Hope this Helps!!!

A gas cylinder is connected to a manometer that contains water. The other end of the manometer is open to the atmosphere, which
horrorfan [7]

Answer: the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa

Explanation:

Given that;

patm = 79 kPa, h = 13 in of H₂O,

A sketch of the problem is uploaded along this answer.

Now

pA = patm + 13 in of H₂O ( h × density × g )

pA= 79 + (13 × 0.0254 × 9.8 × 1000/1000)

pA = 82.23596 kPa

the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa

Relation between Poisson's ration, young's modulus, shear modulus for an isotropic material
poizon [28]

Answer:

 E=2 G(1+2μ)

Explanation:

Isotropic material :

 Those material have same property in all direction is known as isotropic material.

Homogeneous material :

 Those material have same property through out the volume is known as homogeneous material.

Relationship between Poisson ratio ,young modulus and shear modulus:

   E=2 G(1+2μ)

Relationship between Poisson ratio ,bulk modulus and shear modulus:

E=2 K(1-μ)

Where

E is  young modulus.

G is shear modulus.

μ is Poisson ratio.
