Answer:
a) RC = 1.03 mseg.
b) Qmax = CV = 85.2 μC
c) Q = 53.9 μC
Explanation:
a) In a RC circuit, during the transient period, the capacitor charges exponentially (starting from 0 due to the voltage in the capacitor can´t change instantaneously) with time, being the exponent -t/RC.
This product RC, which defines the rate at which the capacitor charges, is called the time constant of the circuit.
In this case , it can be calculated as follows:
ζ = R C = 89.4 Ω . 11.5 μF = 1.03 mseg.
b) As the charge begins to build up the capacitor plates, a voltage establishes between plates, that opposes to the battery voltage. When this voltage is equal to the battery one, the capacitor reaches to the maximum charge, which is, by definition, as follows:
Q = C V = 11.5 μF . 7.41 V = 85.2 μC
c) During the charging process, the charge increases following this equation:
Q = CV (1 - e⁻t/RC)
When t = RC, the expression for Q is as follows:
Q = CV ( 1- e⁻¹) = 0.63 x CV = 53.9 μC
Water at 120oC boils inside a channel with a flat surface measuring 45 cm x 45 cm. Air at 62 m/s and 20oC flows over the channel parallel to the surface. Determine the heat transfer rate to the air. Neglect wall thermal resistance.
Answer:
Q = 2.532 x 10³ W
Explanation:
The properties of air at the film temperature of
T(f) = (T(s) + T()∞)/2
T(f) = (120 + 20)/2 = 70 °C
From the table of properties of air at T = 20 °C we know that ρ = 1.028 kg/m³ , k = 0.02881W/mK, Pr = 0.7177 , v = 1.995 x 10⁻⁵ m²/s
Calculate the Reynold’s Number
Re(l) = V x L/ν, where V is the speed of air flowing, L is the length of the surface in meters and ν is the kinematic viscosity
Re(l) = 62 x 0.45/(1.995 x 10⁻⁵) = 1.398 x 10⁶
Re(l) is greater than the critical Reynold Number. Thus, we have combined laminar and turbulent flow and the average Nusselt number for the entire plate is determined by
Nu = (0.037 x (Re(l)^0.8) - 871) x Pr^1/3, where Pr is the Prandtl’s Number
Nu = (0.037 x (1.398 x 10⁶)^0.8) – 871) x (0.7177)^1/3
Nu = 1952.85
We also know that
Nu = h x L/k, where h is the heat transfer coefficient, L is the length of the surface and k is the thermal conductivity
Rearranging to solve for h
h = (Nu x k)/l
h = 1952.85 x 0.02881/0.45 = 125.03 W/m²C
The heat transfer rate Q, may be determined by
Q = h x A x (T(s) - T(∞))
Q = 125.03 x 0.45 x 0.45 x (120 - 20)
Q = 2.532 x 10³ W
The heat transfer rate is 2.532 x 10³ W to the air.

A large-particle composite consisting of tungsten particles within a copper matrix is to be prepared. If the volume fractions of tungsten and copper are 0.90 and 0.10, respectively, estimate the upper limit for the specific stiffness of this composite given the data that follow. Specific Gravity Modulus of Elasticity (GPa)
Copper 8.9 110
Tungsten 19.3 407
The upper limit for the specific stiffness of this composite is approximately 20.208 GPa.
Specific stiffness of composite = Volume fraction of copper * Specific stiffness of copper + Volume fraction of tungsten * Specific stiffness of tungsten
Specific stiffness of composite = [tex](0.10 * (110 / 8.9)) + (0.90 * (407 / 19.3))[/tex]
Now, calculate the specific stiffness of the composite.
Specific stiffness of composite = [tex](0.10 * (110 / 8.9)) + (0.90 * (407 / 19.3))[/tex]
Specific stiffness of composite ≈[tex](0.10 * 12.36) + (0.90 * 21.08)[/tex]
Specific stiffness of composite ≈ [tex]1.236 + 18.972[/tex]
Specific stiffness of composite ≈ 20.208 GPa
So, the upper limit for the specific stiffness of this composite is approximately 20.208 GPa.
A 15 ft high vertical wall retains an overconsolidated soil where OCR-1.5, c'-: O, ф , --33°, and 1 1 5.0 lb/ft3.
Determine the magnitude and location of the thrust on the wall, assuming that the soil is at rest.
Answer:
magnitude of thrust uis 11061.65 lb/ft
location is 5 ft from bottom
Explanation:
Given data:
Height of vertical wall is 15 ft
OCR is 1.5
[tex]\phi = 33^o[/tex]
saturated uit weight[tex] \gamma_{sat} = 115.0 lb/ft^3[/tex]
coeeficent of earth pressure [tex]K_o[/tex]
[tex]K_o = 1 -sin \phi[/tex]
= 1 - sin 33 = 0.455
for over consolidate
[tex]K_{con} = K_o \times OCR[/tex]
[tex] = 0.455 \times 1.5 = 0.683[/tex]
Pressure at bottom of wall is
[tex]P =K_{con} \times (\gamma_{sat} - \gamma_{w}) + \gamma_w \times H[/tex]
[tex]= 0.683 \times (115 - 62.4) \times 15 + 62.4 \times 15[/tex]
P = 1474.88 lb/ft^3
Magnitude pf thrust is
[tex]F= \frac{1}{2} PH[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{1}{2} 1474.88\times 15 = 11061.65 lb/ft[/tex]
the location must H/3 from bottom so
[tex]x = \frac{15}{3} = 5 ft[/tex]
A small circular plate has a diameter of 2 cm and can be approximated as a blackbody. To determine the radiation from the plate, a radiometer is placed normal to the direction of viewing from the plate at a distance of 50 cm. If the radiometer measured an irradiation of 129 W/m2 from the plate, determine the temperature of the plate. Take the Stefan-Boltzmann constant as σ = 5.67 x 10-8 W/m2·K4.The temperature of the plate is______________.
Answer: Temperature T = 218.399K.
Explanation:
Q= 129W/m2
σ = 5.67 EXP -8W/m2K4
Q= σ x t^4
t = (Q/σ)^0.25
t= 218.399k
A pressure gage and a manometer are connected to a compressed air tank to measure its pressure. If the reading on the pressure gage is 11 kPa, determine the distance h between the two fluid levels of the water filled manometer. Assume the density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa.Quiz 3
Answer:
h=1.122652m
Explanation:
Assuming density of air = 1.2kg/m³
the differential pressure is given by:
[tex]h^{i} =h(\frac{density of manometer}{density of flowing air}-1)\\h^{i} =h(\frac{1000}{1.2}-1)\\ h^{i}=832.33h...(1)\\\\but\\ h^{i} =\frac{change in pressure}{air density*g} \\\\h^{i} =\frac{11*10^3}{1.2*9.81}\\\\h^{i}= 934.42...(2)\\\\equating, \\\\934.42=832.33h\\\\h=1.122652m[/tex]
The distance h between the two fluid levels of the water-filled manometer is approximately 1.121 meters.
To determine the distance h between the two fluid levels of the water-filled manometer, we need to use the pressure readings from both the pressure gauge and the manometer. Here's how we can approach the problem:
Given:
- Reading on the pressure gauge: [tex]\( P_{gauge} = 11 \, \text{kPa} \)[/tex]- Atmospheric pressure: [tex]\( P_{atm} = 101 \, \text{kPa} \)[/tex]
- Density of water: [tex]\( \rho = 1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \)[/tex]
- Acceleration due to gravity: [tex]\( g = 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)[/tex]
Step-by-Step Solution:
1. Convert the gauge pressure to absolute pressure:
[tex]\[ P_{absolute} = P_{gauge} + P_{atm} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ P_{absolute} = 11 \, \text{kPa} + 101 \, \text{kPa} = 112 \, \text{kPa} \][/tex]
2. Determine the pressure difference between the air tank and atmospheric pressure:
The pressure difference [tex](\( \Delta P \))[/tex] that the manometer measures is equal to the gauge pressure:
[tex]\[ \Delta P = P_{absolute} - P_{atm} = 112 \, \text{kPa} - 101 \, \text{kPa} = 11 \, \text{kPa} \][/tex]
3. Use the pressure difference to find the height ( h ):
The pressure difference is related to the height ( h ) of the water column by the hydrostatic equation:
[tex]\[ \Delta P = \rho g h \][/tex]
Solving for ( h ):
[tex]\[ h = \frac{\Delta P}{\rho g} \][/tex]
Convert [tex]\(\Delta P\)[/tex] to Pascals [tex](since \(1 \, \text{kPa} = 1000 \, \text{Pa}\))[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \Delta P = 11 \, \text{kPa} = 11000 \, \text{Pa} \][/tex]
Now, calculate ( h ):
[tex]\[ h = \frac{11000 \, \text{Pa}}{1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \times 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ h \approx \frac{11000}{9810} \, \text{m} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ h \approx 1.121 \, \text{m} \][/tex]

Water flows in a constant diameter pipe with the following conditions measured:
At section (a) pa = 31.1 psi and za = 56.7 ft; at section (b) pb = 27.3 psi and zb = 68.8 ft.
(a) Determine the head loss from section (a) to section (b).
(b) Is the flow from (a) to (b) or from (b) to (a)?
Answer:
a) [tex]h_L=-3.331ft[/tex]
b) The flow would be going from section (b) to section (a)
Explanation:
1) Notation
[tex]p_a =31.1psi=4478.4\frac{lb}{ft^2}[/tex]
[tex]p_b =27.3psi=3931.2\frac{lb}{ft^2}[/tex]
For above conversions we use the conversion factor [tex]1psi=144\frac{lb}{ft^2}[/tex]
[tex]z_a =56.7ft[/tex]
[tex]z_a =68.8ft[/tex]
[tex]h_L =?[/tex] head loss from section
2) Formulas and definitions
For this case we can apply the Bernoulli equation between the sections given (a) and (b). Is important to remember that this equation allows en energy balance since represent the sum of all the energies in a fluid, and this sum need to be constant at any point selected.
The formula is given by:
[tex]\frac{p_a}{\gamma}+\frac{V_a^2}{2g}+z_a =\frac{p_b}{\gamma}+\frac{V_b^2}{2g}+z_b +h_L[/tex]
Since we have a constant section on the piple we have the same area and flow, then the velocities at point (a) and (b) would be the same, and we have just this expression:
[tex]\frac{p_a}{\gamma}+z_a =\frac{p_b}{\gamma}+z_b +h_L[/tex]
3)Part a
And on this case we have all the values in order to replace and solve for [tex]h_L[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4478.4\frac{lb}{ft^2}}{62.4\frac{lb}{ft^3}}+56.7ft=\frac{3931.2\frac{lb}{ft^2}}{62.4\frac{lb}{ft^3}}+68.8ft +h_L[/tex]
[tex]h_L=(71.769+56.7-63-68.8)ft=-3.331ft[/tex]
4)Part b
Analyzing the value obtained for [tex]\h_L[/tex] is a negative value, so on this case this means that the flow would be going from section (b) to section (a).
A rapid sand filter has a loading rate of 8.00 m/h, surface dimensions of 10 m ´ 8 m, an effective filtration rate of 7.70 m/h. A complete filter cycle duration is 52 h and the filter is rinsed for 20 minutes at the start of each cycle. a. What flow rate (m3 /s) does the filter handle during production? b. What volume of water is used for backwashing plus rinsing the filter in each filter cycle?
Answer:
Explanation:
given data
loading rate = 8.00 m/h
filtration rate = 7.70 m/h
dimensions = 10 m × 8 m
filter cycle duration = 52 h
time = 20 min
to find out
flow rate and volume of water is used for back washing plus rinsing the filter
solution
we consider here production efficiency is 96%
so here flow rate will be
flow rate = area × rate of filtration
flow rate = 10 × 8 × 7.7
flow rate = 616 m³/h
and
we know back washing generally 3 to 5 % of total volume of water per cycle so
volume of water is = 616 × 52
volume of water is 32032 m³
and
volume of water of back washing is = 4% of 32032
volume of water of back washing is 1281.2 m³
Problem 5) Water is pumped through a 60 m long, 0.3 m diameter pipe from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir whose surface is 10 m above the lower one. The sum of the minor loss coefficient for the system is kL = 14.5. When the pump adds 40 kW to the water, the flow rate is 0.2 m3/s. Determine the pipe roughness.
Answer:
\epsilon = 0.028*0.3 = 0.0084
Explanation:
\frac{P_1}{\rho} + \frac{v_1^2}{2g} +z_1 +h_p - h_l =\frac{P_2}{\rho} + \frac{v_2^2}{2g} +z_2
where P_1 = P_2 = 0
V1 AND V2 =0
Z1 =0
h_P = \frac{w_p}{\rho Q}
=\frac{40}{9.8*10^3*0.2} = 20.4 m
20.4 - (f [\frac{l}{d}] +kl) \frac{v_1^2}{2g} = 10
we know thaTV =\frac{Q}{A}
V = \frac{0.2}{\pi \frac{0.3^2}{4}} =2.82 m/sec
20.4 - (f \frac{60}{0.3} +14.5) \frac{2.82^2}{2*9.81} = 10
f = 0.0560
Re =\frac{\rho v D}{\mu}
Re =\frac{10^2*2.82*0.3}{1.12*10^{-3}} =7.53*10^5
fro Re = 7.53*10^5 and f = 0.0560
\frac{\epsilon}{D] = 0.028
\epsilon = 0.028*0.3 = 0.0084

A 800-MW steam power plant, which is cooled by a nearby river, has a thermal efficiency of 40 percent. Determine the rate of heat transfer to the river water. Will the actual heat transfer rate be higher or lower than this value? Why?(Round the final answer to the nearest whole number.)
Answer:
Rate of heat transfer to river=1200MW
So the actual amount of heat rejected ti the river will be less as there will some heat loss to surrounding and in pipes
Explanation:
In order to find the actual heat transfer rate is lower or higher than its value we will first find the rate of heat transfer to power plant:
[tex]Efficiency=\frac{work}{heat transfer to power plant}[/tex]
[tex]Heat transfer=\frac{work}{Efficiency\\} \\\\Heat transfer=\frac{800}{0.40}\\\\Heat transfer=2000MW[/tex]
From First law of thermodynamics:
Rate of heat transfer to river=heat transfer to power plant-work done
Rate of heat transfer to river=2000-800
Rate of heat transfer to river=1200MW
So the actual amount of heat rejected ti the river will be less as there will some heat loss to surrounding and in pipes.
A 20 mm 3 20 mm silicon chip is mounted such thatthe edges are flush in a substrate. The substrate provides anunheated starting length of 20 mm that acts as turbulator. Airflow at 25°C (1 atm) with a velocity of 25 m/s is used to coolthe upper surface of the chip. If the maximum surface temperature of the chip cannot exceed 75°C, determine the maximumallowable power dissipation on the chip surface.
Answer:
q= 1.77 W
Explanation:
Given data, Dimensions = 20mm x 20mm, Unheated starting length (ε) = 20 mm, Air flow temperature = 25 C, Velocity of flow = 25m/s, Surface Temperature = 75 C
To find maximum allowed power dissipated use the formula Q = hA(ΔT), where Q = Maximum allowed power dissipated from surface , h = heat transfer coefficiant, A = Area of Surface, ΔT = Temperature difference between surface and surrounding
we need to find h, which is given by (Nu x K)/x, where Nu is the Nusselt's Number, k is the thermal conductivity at film temperature and x is the length of the substrate.
For Nu use the Churchill and Ozoe relation used for parallel flow over the flat plate , Nu = (Nux (ε=0))/[1-(ε/x)^3/4]^1/3
Nux (ε=0) = 0.453 x Re^0.5 x Pr^1/3, where Re is the Reynolds number calculated by [Rex = Vx/v, where V is the velocity and v is the kinematic velocity, x being the length of the substrate] and Pr being the Prandtl Number
The constants, namel Pr, k and v are temperature dependent, so we need to find the film temperature
Tfilm = (Tsubstrate + Tmax)/2 = (25 + 75)/2 = 50 C
At 50 C, Pr = 0.7228, k = 0.02735w/m.k , v = 1.798 x 10^-5 m2/s
First find Rex and keep using the value in the subsequent formulas until we reach Q
Rex = Vx/v = 25 x (0.02 + 0.02)/ 1.798 x 10^-5 = 55617.35 < 5 x 10^5, thus flow is laminar, (x = L + ε)
Nux = (Nux (ε=0))/[1-(ε/x)^3/4]^1/3 = 0.453 x Re^0.5 x Pr^1/3/[1-(ε/x)^3/4]^1/3
= 0.453 x 55617.35 ^0.5 x 0.7228^1/3/ [1 - (0.02/0.04)^3/4]^1/3 = 129.54
h = (Nu x K)/x = (129.54 x 0.02735)/0.04 = 88.75W/m2.k
Q = 88.75 x (0.02)^2 x (75-25) = 1.77 W

Write a program that uses the function isPalindrome given below. Test your program on the following strings: madam, abba, 22, 67876, 444244, trymeuemyrt. Modify the function isPalindrome given so that when determining whether a string is a palindrome, cases are ignored, that is, uppercase and lowercase letters are considered the same. bool isPalindrome(string str)
{
int length = str.length();
for (int i = 0; i < length / 2; i++)
{
if (str[i] != str[length - 1 - i] )
return false;
}
return true;
}
The revised isPalindrome function now considers uppercase and lowercase letters as the same, correctly identifying palindromes regardless of case. It first converts the input string to all lowercase and then checks for palindrome properties.
Explanation:Understanding Palindromes in Programming
A palindrome is a sequence of characters that reads the same forwards and backwards. The provided isPalindrome function is designed to check if a given string is a palindrome. However, the function needs to be modified to disregard the case of the letters, allowing 'Madam' and 'madam' to both be recognized as palindromes.
To achieve this, we can modify the function by converting the input string to all lowercase or uppercase before the comparison. Here's the revised version of the function:
bool isPalindrome(string str) {Now, when this modified function is tested with the strings 'madam', 'abba', '22', '67876', '444244', and 'trymeuemyrt', it will correctly identify the palindromes regardless of case.
Palindromes, isPalindrome function modification for case-insensitivity, Examples of palindromes.
Palindromes are sequences of letters or words that read the same forwards and backwards. They can be found in various contexts, including DNA sequences. The objective of the given program is to determine if a given string is a palindrome, which remains the same when read backward.
The modified function isPalindrome checks if a string is a palindrome while ignoring case differences, treating uppercase and lowercase letters as the same. This modification allows the function to correctly identify palindromes regardless of letter casing.
Examples such as 'madam', 'abba', 'trymeuemyrt' correspond to palindromes while considering the modified function's case-insensitive behavior, showcasing the effectiveness of the updated algorithm

Write a program that stores lists of names (the last name first) and ages in parallel arrays and sorts the names into alphabetical order keeping the ages with the correct names. The original arrays of names and ages should remain no changes. Therefore, you need to create an array of character pointers to store the addresses of the names in the name array initially. Apply the selection sort to this array of pointers so that the corresponding names are in alphabetical order.

Write a function call with arguments tensPlace, onesPlace, and userInt. Be sure to pass the first two arguments as pointers. Sample output for the given program: tensPlace = 4, onesPlace = 1
The question pertains to the use of functions and pointers in programming. The task involves writing a function call that manipulates the tens and ones digit of an integer by passing the first two arguments as pointers. An example solution involves creating a function named ExtractDigits to perform this task and using pointers to directly modify specified variables.
Explanation:The question refers to the concept of functions and pointers in programming, which is an advanced topic typically covered at the college level in computer science or engineering courses. The task is to write a function call that uses pointers for the first two arguments, tensPlace and onesPlace, and a regular argument for userInt. This function could be crafted to manipulate or assess the tens and ones place of a given integer, userInt.
Example Solution:Suppose we have a function named ExtractDigits designed to extract the tens and ones place of an integer. This function might look like:
void ExtractDigits(int* tensPlace, int* onesPlace, int userInt){
*tensPlace = (userInt / 10) % 10;
*onesPlace = userInt % 10;
}
To call this function with the variables tensPlace, onesPlace, and a specific integer (for example, 41), you can use the following code:
int main() {
int tens, ones;
ExtractDigits(&tens, &ones, 41);
printf("tensPlace = %d, onesPlace = %d", tens, ones);
return 0;
}
This function call passes the addresses of tens and ones to the function so that their values can be modified directly, which is a fundamental use of pointers in C and C++ programming.
You are using a Geiger counter to measure the activity of a radioactive substance over the course of several minutes. If the reading of 400. counts has diminished to 100. counts after 66.7 minutes , what is the half-life of this substance? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Answer: 33.35 minutes
Explanation:
A(t) = A(o) *(.5)^[t/(t1/2)]....equ1
Where
A(t) = geiger count after time t = 100
A(o) = initial geiger count = 400
(t1/2) = the half life of decay
t = time between geiger count = 66.7 minutes
Sub into equ 1
100=400(.5)^[66.7/(t1/2)
Equ becomes
.25= (.5)^[66.7/(t1/2)]
Take log of both sides
Log 0.25 = [66.7/(t1/2)] * log 0.5
66.7/(t1/2) = 2
(t1/2) = (66.7/2 ) = 33.35 minutes
3. (20 points) Suppose we wish to search a linked list of length n, where each element contains a key k along with a hash value h(k). Each key is a long character string. How might we take advantage of the hash values when searching the list for an element with a given key?
Answer:
Alternatively we produce a complex (hash) value for key which mean that "to obtain a numerical value for every single string" that we are looking for. Then compare that values along the range of list, that turns out be numerical values so that comparison becomes faster.
Explanation:
Every individual key is a big character so to compare every keys, it is required to conduct a quite time consuming string reference procedure at every node. Alternatively we produce a complex (hash) value for key which mean that "to obtain a numerical value for every single string" that we are looking for. Then compare that values along the range of list, that turns out be numerical values so that comparison becomes faster.
A pipe leads from a storage tank on the roof of a building to the ground floor. The absolute pressure of the water in the storage tank where it connects to the pipe is 3.0×105Pa, the pipe has a radius of 1.0 cm where it connects to the storage tank, and the speed of flow in this pipe is 1.6 m/s. The pipe on the ground floor has a radius of 0.50 cm and is 9.0 m below the storage tank. Find the speed of flow in the pipe on the ground floor.
Answer:
6.4 m/s
Explanation:
From the equation of continuity
A1V1=A2V2 where A1 and V1 are area and velocity of inlet respectively while A2 and V2 are the area and velocity of outlet respectively
[tex]A1=\pi (r1)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]A2=\pi (r2)^{2}[/tex]
where r1 and r2 are radius of inlet and outlet respectively
v1 is given as 1.6 m/s
Therefore
[tex]\pi (0.01)^{2}\times 1.6 = \pi (0.005)^{2}v2[/tex]
[tex]V2=\frac {\pi (0.01)^{2}\times 1.6}{\pi (0.005)^{2}}=6.4 m/s[/tex]
The wall shear stress in a fully developed flow portion of a 12-in.-diameter pipe is 1.85 lb/ft^2.
Determine the pressure gradient ∂p/∂x, wherexis the flow direction when (a) the pipe is horizontal, (b) the pipe is vertical with the flow up, and (c) the pipe is vertical with the flowdown.
Answer:
a) [tex]-7.4\frac{lb}{ft^3}[/tex]
b) [tex]-69.8\frac{lb}{ft^3}[/tex]
c) [tex]55 \frac{lb}{ft^3}[/tex]
Explanation:
1) Notation
[tex]\tau=1.85\frac{lb}{ft^2}[/tex] represent the shear stress defined as "the external force acting on an object or surface parallel to the slope or plane in which it lies"
R represent the radial distance
L the longitude
[tex]\theta=0\degree[/tex] since at the begin we have a horizontal pipe, but for parts b and c the angle would change.
D represent the diameter for the pipe
[tex]\gamma=62.4\frac{lb}{ft^3}[/tex] is the specific weight for the water
2) Part a
For this case we can use the shear stress and the radial distance to find the pressure difference per unit of lenght, with the following formula
[tex]\frac{2\tau}{r}=\frac{\Delta p -\gamma Lsin\theta}{L}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2\tau}{r}=\frac{\Delta p}{L}-\gamma sin\theta[/tex]
If we convert the difference's into differentials we have this:
[tex]-\frac{dp}{dx}=\frac{2\tau}{r}+\gamma sin\theta[/tex]
We can replace [tex]r=\frac{D}{2}[/tex] and we have this:
[tex]\frac{dp}{dx}=-[\frac{4\tau}{D}+\gamma sin\theta][/tex]
Replacing the values given we have:
[tex]\frac{dp}{dx}=-[\frac{4x1.85\frac{lb}{ft^2}}{1ft}+62.4\frac{lb}{ft^3} sin0]=-7.4\frac{lb}{ft^3}[/tex]
3) Part b
When the pipe is on vertical upward position the new angle would be [tex]\theta=\pi/2[/tex], and replacing into the formula we got this:
[tex]\frac{dp}{dx}=-[\frac{4x1.85\frac{lb}{ft^2}}{1ft}+62.4\frac{lb}{ft^3} sin90]=-69.8\frac{lb}{ft^3}[/tex]
4) Part c
When the pipe is on vertical downward position the new angle would be [tex]\theta=-\pi/2[/tex], and replacing into the formula we got this:
[tex]\frac{dp}{dx}=-[\frac{4x1.85\frac{lb}{ft^2}}{1ft}+62.4\frac{lb}{ft^3} sin(-90)]=55 \frac{lb}{ft^3}[/tex]
Unidirectional and continuous carbon fibers with a diameter of 6.5 micron are embedded within an epoxy that offers a yield point of 73 MPa. If the bond strength across the fiber-epoxy interface is 32 MPa, compute the minimum fiber length to guarantee that the fibers are conveying an optimum fraction of force that is applied to the composite. Answer Format: X.XX Unit: mm
Answer:
L=0.0074 mm
Explanation:
Given that
d= 6.5 micron meter
d= 6.5 x 10⁻³ mm
Yield strength ,Sy = 73 MPa
Bond strength ,σ = 32 MPa
The fiber length given as
[tex]L=\dfrac{S_y \times d}{2 \times \sigma }[/tex]
By putting the values
[tex]L=\dfrac{S_y \times d}{2 \times \sigma }[/tex]
[tex]L=\dfrac{73 \times 6.5\times 10^{-3}}{2\times 32 }\ mm[/tex]
L=0.0074 mm
Therefore the minimum fiber length is 0.0074 mm.

An air conditioner removes heat steadily from a house at a rate of 750 kJ/min while drawing electric power at a rate of 6 kW. Determine (a) the COP of this air conditioner and (b) the rate of heat transfer to the outside air.
Answer:
a. 2.08, b. 1110 kJ/min
Explanation:
The power consumption and the cooling rate of an air conditioner are given. The COP or Coefficient of Performance and the rate of heat rejection are to be determined. Assume that the air conditioner operates steadily.
a. The coefficient of performance of the air conditioner (refrigerator) is determined from its definition, which is
COP(r) = Q(L)/W(net in), where Q(L) is the rate of heat removed and W(net in) is the work done to remove said heat
COP(r) = (750 kJ/min/6 kW) x (1 kW/60kJ/min) = 2.08
The COP of this air conditioner is 2.08.
b. The rate of heat discharged to the outside air is determined from the energy balance.
Q(H) = Q(L) + W(net in)
Q(H) = 750 kJ/min + 6 x 60 kJ/min = 1110 kJ/min
The rate of heat transfer to the outside air is 1110 kJ for every minute.
a) The COP of the air conditioner is 2.083.
b) Rate of heat transfer to the outside air is 18.5 kW.
Step 1
Given Data:
- Heat removal rate from the house, [tex]\( \dot{Q}_{in} = 750 \, \text{kJ/min} \)[/tex]
- Electric power input, [tex]\( \dot{W}_{in} = 6 \, \text{kW} \)[/tex]
Converting Units:
[tex]\[ \dot{Q}_{in} = 750 \, \text{kJ/min} = \frac{750 \, \text{kJ}}{60 \, \text{s}} = 12.5 \, \text{kW} \][/tex]
Calculations:
(a) Coefficient of Performance (COP):
The COP of an air conditioner is defined as the ratio of the heat removed from the house to the work input (electric power):
[tex]\[ \text{COP} = \frac{\dot{Q}_{in}}{\dot{W}_{in}} \][/tex]
Step 2
Substituting the given values:
[tex]\[ \text{COP} = \frac{12.5 \, \text{kW}}{6 \, \text{kW}} = 2.083 \][/tex]
(b) Rate of Heat Transfer to the Outside Air:
The rate of heat transfer to the outside air, [tex]\( \dot{Q}_{out} \)[/tex], can be determined using the first law of thermodynamics for a steady-state system:
[tex]\[ \dot{Q}_{out} = \dot{Q}_{in} + \dot{W}_{in} \][/tex]
Substituting the given values:
[tex]\[ \dot{Q}_{out} = 12.5 \, \text{kW} + 6 \, \text{kW} = 18.5 \, \text{kW} \][/tex]
Two pipes of identical diameter and material are connected in parallel. The length of pipe A is five times the length of pipe B. Assuming the flow is fully turbulent in both pipes and thus the friction factor is independent of the Reynolds number and disregarding minor losses, determine the ratio of the flow rates in the two pipes.
Answer:
[tex]\dfrac{Q_B}{Q_A}=\sqrt{5}[/tex]
Explanation:
Lets take
Length of pipe B = L
Length of pipe A = 5 L
Discharge in pipe A = Q₁
Discharge in pipe B = Q₂
We know that head loss in the pipe given as
[tex]h_f=\dfrac{FLQ^2}{12.1d^5}[/tex]
F=Friction factor, Q=Discharge,L=length
d=Diameter of pipe
here all only Q and L is varying and all other quantity is constant
So we can say that
LQ²= Constant
L₁Q₁²=L₂Q²₂
By putting the values
5LQ₁²=LQ²₂
[tex]\dfrac{Q_2}{Q_1}=\sqrt{5}[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]\dfrac{Q_B}{Q_A}=\sqrt{5}[/tex]
