Engineering
1 answer:
BARSIC [14]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1. Clepsydra

2. Barometer

3. Chronometer

4. Se*tant

Explanation:

1. A clepsydra is a device that measures time by using a regulated fluid flow. It looks like a hour glass.

2. A barometer is a device that measures pressure. The level of liquid inside of its tubes changes with the atmospheric pressure change.

3. A chronometer is used to determine a position while knowing latitude, longitude, and altitude.

4. A se*tant has an arc of a circle and a movable arm pivoted at the center of the circle. It is used to view the horizon and also celestial bodies.

Give five general principles involved in the process of sewage filtration?​
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Some general principles are given below in the explanation segment.

Explanation:

Sewage treatment seems to be a method to extract pollutants from untreated sewage, consisting primarily of domestic sewage including some solid wastes.

<u>The principles are given below:</u>

  • Unless the components throughout the flow stream become greater than the ports or even the gaps throughout the filter layer, those holes would be filled as either a result of economic detection.
  • The much more common element of filtration would be the use of gravity to extract a combination.
  • Broadcast interception or interference.  
  • Inertial influence.
  • Sieving seems to be an excellent method to distinguish particulates.

What is a Flame Front Generator?
Inessa [10]

Answer and Explanation:

Flame Front Generator: It is a ignition system which is very useful in flaring system .In this system the air and gases are mixed together and make a combustible air gas mixture. There is a flame front region where the combustion reaction takes place , it is the region where gases as like hydrogen and air mixed with each other and form combustible gases.

A smooth sphere with a diameter of 6 inches and a density of 493 lbm/ft^3 falls at terminal speed through sea water (S.G.=1.0027
Pachacha [2.7K]

Given:

diameter of sphere, d = 6 inches

radius of sphere, r = \frac{d}{2} = 3 inches

density,  \rho} = 493 lbm/ ft^{3}

S.G = 1.0027

g = 9.8 m/ m^{2} = 386.22 inch/ s^{2}

Solution:

Using the formula for terminal velocity,

v_{T} = \sqrt{\frac{2V\rho  g}{A \rho C_{d}}}              (1)

(Since, m = V\times \rho)

where,

V = volume of sphere

C_{d} = drag coefficient

Now,

Surface area of sphere, A = 4\pi r^{2}

Volume of sphere, V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Using the above formulae in eqn (1):

v_{T} = \sqrt{\frac{2\times \frac{4}{3} \pir^{3}\rho  g}{4\pi r^{2} \rho C_{d}}}

v_{T} = \sqrt{\frac{2gr}{3C_{d}}}  

v_{T} = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 386.22\times 3}{3C_{d}}}

Therefore, terminal velcity is given by:

v_{T} = \frac{27.79}{\sqrt{C_d}} inch/sec

The heat required to raise the temperature of m (kg) of a liquid from T1 to T2 at constant pressure is Z T2CpT dT (1) In high sc
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

(a)

<em>d</em>Q = m<em>d</em>q

<em>d</em>q = C_p<em>d</em>T

q = \int\limits^{T_2}_{T_1} {C_p} \, dT   = C_p (T₂ - T₁)

From the above equations, the underlying assumption is that  C_p remains constant with change in temperature.

(b)

Given;

V = 2L

T₁ = 300 K

Q₁ = 16.73 KJ    ,   Q₂ = 6.14 KJ

ΔT = 3.10 K       ,   ΔT₂ = 3.10 K  for calorimeter

Let C_{cal} be heat constant of calorimeter

Q₂ = C_{cal} ΔT

Heat absorbed by n-C₆H₁₄ = Q₁ - Q₂

Q₁ - Q₂ = m C_p ΔT

number of moles of n-C₆H₁₄, n = m/M

ρ = 650 kg/m³  at 300 K

M = 86.178 g/mol

m = ρv = 650 (2x10⁻³) = 1.3 kg

n = m/M => 1.3 / 0.086178 = 15.085 moles

Q₁ - Q₂ = m C_p' ΔT

C_p = (16.73 - 6.14) / (15.085 x 3.10)

C_p = 0.22646 KJ mol⁻¹ k⁻¹
