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.

Which is the better measure of computer system performance—a benchmark, such as SPECINT; or a processor speed measure, such as G

Vesna [10]

Answer:

A benchmark

Explanation:

Most times a benchmark serves as the better measure when assessing a computer's performance, this is because CPU speeds can only evaluate an aspect of a computer's performance whereas a benchmark offers the advantage of measuring all the aspects of a computer's performance for a specific type of computing problem.

Pipe Diameter and Reynolds Number. An oil is being pumped inside a 10.0-mm-diameter pipe at a Reynolds number of 2100. The oil d

alexdok [17]

Answer:

The velocity in the pipe is 5.16m/s. The pipe diameter for the second fluid should be 6.6 mm.

Explanation:

Here the first think you have to consider is the definition of the Reynolds number ( $Re$ ) for flows in pipes. Rugly speaking, the Reynolds number is an adimensonal parameter to know if the fliud flow is in laminar or turbulent regime. The equation to calculate this number is:

$Re=\frac{\rho v D}{\mu}$

where $\rho$ is the density of the fluid, $\mu$ is the viscosity, D is the pipe diameter and v is the velocity of the fluid.

Now, we know that Re=2100. So the velocity is:

$v=\frac{Re*\mu}{\rho*D} =\frac{2100*2.1x10^{-2}Pa*s }{855kg/m^3*0.01m} =5.16m/s$

For the second fluid, we want to keep the Re=2100 and v=5.16m/s. Therefore, using the equation of Reynolds number the diameter is:

$D=\frac{Re*\mu}{\rho*v} =\frac{2100*1.5x10^{-2}Pa*s}{925kg/m^3*5.16m/s}=6.6 mm$

A 10.2 mm diameter steel circular rod is subjected to a tensile load that reduces its cross- sectional area to 52.7 mm^2. Determ

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The percentage ductility is 35.5%.

Explanation:

Ductility is the ability of being deform under applied load. Ductility can measure by percentage elongation and percentage reduction in area. Here, percentage reduction in area method is taken to measure the ductility.

Step1

Given:

Diameter of shaft is 10.2 mm.

Final area of the shaft is 52.7 mm².

Calculation:

Step2

Initial area is calculated as follows:

$A=\frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}$

$A=\frac{\pi\times(10.2)^{2}}{4}$

A = 81.713 mm².

Step3

Percentage ductility is calculated as follows:

$D=\frac{A_{i}-A_{f}}{A_{i}}\times100$

$D=\frac{81.713-52.7}{81.713}\times100$

D = 35.5%.

Thus, the percentage ductility is 35.5%.
