Answer:
[tex]F = \frac{m * v^2}{r}[/tex]
Explanation:
Once the centrifugal forces are equivalent as an object rotates, it is called "in equilibrium." If the point of impact of the moving object does not align with the center of the rotation, unequal centrifugal forces are produced and the rotating component is "out of equilibrium."
Two conditions for balanced condition are: static and coupled. Static equilibrium relates to a one plane mass in which the unit is balanced by weight inverse the unbalanced mass
formula used to calculate centrifugal mass is [tex]F = \frac{m * v^2}{r}[/tex]
where, m is mass, v is speed of body. r is radius
A town has a 1-million-gallon storage capacity water tower. If the density of water is 62.41b/ft and local acceleration due to gravity is 32.1 ft/s, what is the force in lbf the structural base must provide to support the water in the tower?
Answer:
[tex]w = 8.316\times 10^6 lb[/tex]
Explanation:
force that structural base must be provided with is equal to the weight of water
we know that
[tex]\rho =\frac{mass}{V}[/tex]
[tex]m =\rho V[/tex]
We know that
w = mg
so we have
[tex]w = \rho Vg[/tex]
density of water is 62.4 lb/ft^3
V = 1 milllion = 100,000 gallons
[tex]g = 32.1 ft/s^2[/tex]
[tex]w = 62.4[\times10^6 gallons \frac{0.134}{1 gallon}] [32.1 ft/s^2 \frac{0.3048 m/s^2}{ft/s^2} \frac{m/s^2}{9.8 m/s^2}][/tex]
[tex]w = 8.316\times 10^6 lb[/tex]
Calculate the rate at which body heat is conducted through the clothing of a skier in a steady- state process, given the following data: the body surface area is 1.80 m and the clothing is 1.00 cm thick; the skin surface temperature is 33.0 C and the outer surface of the clothing is at 1.00 C the thermal conductivity of the clothing is 0.040 W/m K
The rate of heat transfer through the skier's clothing is approximately 230.4 watts.
Given the information you provided, we can calculate the rate of heat transfer through the skier's clothing using the following formula for heat conduction:
Q = k * A * ΔT / L
where:
Q is the heat transfer rate (W)
k is the thermal conductivity of the clothing (W/m K)
A is the body surface area (m²)
ΔT is the temperature difference between the skin and the outer surface of the clothing (K)
L is the thickness of the clothing (m)
Let's plug in the values:
k = 0.040 W/m K
A = 1.80 m²
ΔT = 33.0°C - 1.0°C = 32.0 K (convert temperature difference from Celsius to Kelvin)
L = 0.01 m (convert centimeter to meter)
Q = 0.040 W/m K * 1.80 m² * 32.0 K / 0.01 m
Q = 230.40 W
A spacecraft component occupies a volume of 8ft^3 and weighs 25 lb at a location where the acceleration of gravity is 31.0 ft/s^2. Determine its weight, in pounds, and its average density, in lbm/ft^3, on the moon, where g=5.57 ft/s^2.
Answer:
The weight is 4.492 lb
The density is [tex]0.5614 lbm/ft^{3}[/tex]
Solution:
As per the question:
Volume of spacecraft component, [tex]V_{s} = 8ft^{3}[/tex]
Mass of the component of spacecraft, [tex]m_{s} = 25 lb[/tex]
Acceleration of gravity at a point on Earth, [tex]g_{E} = 31.0 ft/s^{2}[/tex]
Acceleration of gravity on Moon, [tex]g_{M} = 5.57 ft/s^{2}[/tex]
Now,
The weight of the component, [tex]w_{c} = m_{c}\times \frac{g_{M}}{g_{E}}[/tex]
[tex]w_{c} = 25\times \frac{5.57}{31.0}[/tex]
[tex]w_{c} = 4.492 lb[/tex]
Now,
Average density, [tex]\rho_{avg}[/tex]
[tex]\rho_{avg} = \farc{w_{s}}{V_{s}}[/tex]
[tex]\rho_{avg} = \farc{4.492}{8} = 0.5614 lbm/ft^{3}[/tex]
Answer:
density=3.125pounds/ft^3
weight=4.35lbf
Explanation:
Density is a property of matter that indicates how much mass a body has in a given volume.
It is given by the following equation.
ρ=m/v (1)
where
ρ=density
m=mass
v=volume
The weight on the other hand is the force which the earth (or the moon) attracts to a body with mass, this force is given by the following equation
W=mg (2)
W=weight
m=mass
g=gravity
to solve this problem we have to calculate the mass of the component using the ecuation number 2
W=mg
m=w/g
w=25lbf=804.35pound .ft/s^2
g=32.2ft/s^2
m=804.35/32.2=25 pounds
density
ρ=m/v (1)
ρ=25pounds/8ft^3
ρ=3.125pounds/ft^3 =density
weight in the moon
W=mg
W=(25pounds)(5.57ft/s^2.)=139.25pound .ft/s^2=4.35lbf
If the dry-bulb temperature is 95°F and the wet-bulb temperature is also 78°F, what is the relative humid- ity? What is the dew point? What is the humidity ratio? What is the enthalpy?
Answer:
Relative humidity 48%.
Dew point 74°F
humidity ratio 118 g of moisture/pound of dry air
enthalpy 41,8 BTU per pound of dry air
Explanation:
You can get this information from a Psychrometric chart for water, like the one attached.
You enter the chart with dry-bulb and wet-bulb temperatures (red point in the attachment) and following the relative humidity curves you get approximately 48%.
To get the dew point you need to follow the horizontal lines to the left scale (marked with blue): 74°F
for the humidity ratio you need to follow the horizontal lines but to the rigth scale (marked with green): 118 g of moisture/pound of dry air
For enthalpy follow the diagonal lines to the far left scale (marked with yellow): 41,8 BTU per pound of dry air
You want a potof water to boil at 105 celcius. How heavy a
lid should youput on the 15 cm diameter pot when Patm =
101kPa?
Answer:
35.7 kg lid we put
Explanation:
given data
temperature = 105 celcius
diameter = 15 cm
Patm = 101 kPa
to find out
How heavy a lid should you put
solution
we know Psaturated from table for temperature is 105 celcius is
Psat = 120.8 kPa
so
area will be here
area = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4} d^2[/tex] ..................1
here d is diameter
put the value in equation 1
area = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4} 0.15^2[/tex]
area = 0.01767 m²
so net force is
Fnet = ( Psat - Patm ) × area
Fnet = ( 120.8 - 101 ) × 0.01767
Fnet = 0.3498 KN = 350 N
we know
Fnet = mg
mass = [tex]\frac{Fnet}{g}[/tex]
mass = [tex]\frac{350}{9.8}[/tex]
mass = 35.7 kg
so 35.7 kg lid we put
A brittle intermetallics specimen is tested with a bending test. The specimen's width 0.45 in and thickness 0.20 in. The length of the specimen between supports 2.5 in. Determine the transverse rupture strength if failure occurs at a load 1200 lb.
Answer:
250 kpsi
Explanation:
Given:
Width of the specimen, w = 0.45 in
Thickness of the specimen, t = 0.20 in
length of the specimen between supports, L = 2.5 in
Failure load, F = 1200 lb
Now,
The transverse rupture strength [tex]\sigma_t=\frac{1.5FL}{wt^2}[/tex]
on substituting the respective values, we get
[tex]\sigma_t=\frac{1.5\times1200\times2.5}{0.45\times0.2^2}[/tex]
or
[tex]\sigma_t=250,000\ psi\ =\ 250 kpsi[/tex]
Metallic implants: a) Would you use pure iron as an implant material in the body? Please justify your answer. b) Suggest, giving also an example, how this material can be improved (in case you think it can be improved), in order to be used in the body.
Answer:
a)No, I wouldn't.
b) It can be improved through alloys.
Explanation:
Iron is a metal with lower resistance to corrosion, this means it will show visible signs of oxidation in living tissue, this corrosion happens so rapidly that supply and migration of oxygen can't pace with the consumption of the oxidant so that the contact tissue becomes starving of oxygen, this is the reason why I wouldn't use pure iron as an implant material.
Iron can be used in alloys to improve its properties, reducing the corrosion, but keeping the iron's resistance for implants in places with higher mechanical stress, one example is Iron-Chromium-Nickel alloys.
I hope you find this information useful! Good luck!
You are riding in an elevator that is going up at 10 ft/s. You are holding your cell phone 5 ft above the floor when it suddenly slips out of your hand and falls to the floor. Will it hit the elevator floor in more time, equal time, or less time than it would take if the elevator were standing still? Show work justifying your answer.
Answer:
It falls at the same speed in both cases.
Explanation:
If I were standing still the phone would be in free fall after slipping out of my hand.
I set a frame of reference with origin on the ground and the positive Y axis pointing up.
It would slip at t0 = 0, from a position Y0 = 5 ft, with a speed of Vy0 = 0.
It would be subject to an gravitational acceleration of -32.2 ft/s^2.
Since acceleration is constant:
Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * 4 * t^2
When it hits the floor at t1 it will be at Y(t1) = 0
0 = 5 + 0 * t1 - 16.1 * t1^2
16.1 * t1^2 = 5
t1^2 = 5 / 16.1
[tex]t1 = \sqrt{0.31} = 0.55 s[/tex]
If the elevator is standing still it would take 0.55 s to hit the ground.
Now, if the elevator is moving up at 10 ft/s.
The frame of reference will have its origin at the place the floor of the elevator is at t = 0, and stay there as the elevetor moves. The floor of trhe elevator will have a position of Ye = 10 * t
Vy0 = 10 ft/s because it will be moving initially at the same speed as the elevator.
And it will hit the floor of the elevator not at 0, but at
Ye = 10 * t2
So:
10 * t2 = 5 + 10 * t2 - 16.1 * t2^2
0 = 5 - 16.1 * t2^2
16.1 * t1^2 = 5
t1^2 = 5 / 16.1
[tex]t1 = \sqrt{0.31} = 0.55 s[/tex]
It falls at the same speed in both cases.
Gas is kept in a 0.1 m diameter cylinder under the weight of a 100 kg piston that is held down by a spring with a stiffness k = 5 kN / m. If the gauge pressure of the gas is 300 kPa, how much is the spring compressed?
Answer:
The spring is compressed by 0.275 meters.
Explanation:
For equilibrium of the gas and the piston the pressure exerted by the gas on the piston should be equal to the sum of weight of the piston and the force the spring exerts on the piston
Mathematically we can write
[tex]Force_{pressure}=Force_{spring}+Weight_{piston}[/tex]
we know that
[tex]Force_{pressure}=Pressure\times Area=300\times 10^{3}\times \frac{\pi \times 0.1^2}{4}=750\pi Newtons[/tex]
[tex]Weight_{piston}=mass\times g=100\times 9.81=981Newtons[/tex]
Now the force exerted by an spring compressed by a distance 'x' is given by [tex]Force_{spring}=k\cdot x=5\times 10^{3}\times x[/tex]
Using the above quatities in the above relation we get
[tex]5\times 10^{3}\times x+981=750\pi \\\\\therefore x=\frac{750\pi -981}{5\times 10^{3}}=0.275meters[/tex]
A car is accelerated 5.5 ft/s^2. Calculate the initial velocity v, the car must have if it is to attain a final velocity v of 45 mph in a distance of 352 ft. Compute also the time t required to attain that final velocity.
Answer:
1) The initial velocity must be 22 feet/sec.
2) The time required to change the velocity is 8 seconds.
Explanation:
This problem can be solved using third equation of kinematics
According to the third equation of kinematics we have
[tex]v^{2}=u^{2}+2as[/tex]
where
'v' is the final velocity of object
'u' is the initial velocity of object
'a' is acceleration of the object
's' is the distance in which this velocity change is brought
Since the final velocity is 45 mph converting this to feet per seconds we get
45 mph =66 feet/sec
Applying Values in the above equation and solving for 'u' we get
[tex]66^{2}=u^{2}+2\times 5.5\times 352\\\\u^{2}=484\\\\\therefore u=22feet/sec[/tex]
2)
The time required to attain this velocity can be found using first equation of kinematics as
[tex]v=u+at[/tex]
where
't' is the time in which the velocity change occurs
'v', 'u', 'a' have the usual meaning
Thus applying given values we get
[tex]66=22+5.5\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{66-22}{5.5}=8seconds[/tex]
Applying the given values we get
When all network cables connect to one central point the network topology is typically referred to as a(n)_______
Answer:
Star
Explanation:
When all hosts are connected to a central hub it is known as a star topology.
The advantages of the star network is that it is very easy to add new devices, a failure in a host will not cause problems on the rest of the network, it is appropriate for large networks and works well under heavy loads,
The disadvantages are that a failure of the central hub brings the whole networks down and it is expensive due to the amount of cables needed.
A Carnot heat engine operates between 1000 deg F and 50 deg F, producing 120 BTU of work. What is the heat input to the engine?
Answer:
184.6 BTU
Explanation:
The thermal efficiency for a Carnot cycle follows this equation:
η = 1 - T2/T1
Where
η: thermal efficiency
T1: temperature of the heat source
T2: temperature of the heat sink
These temperatures must be in absolute scale:
1000 F = 1460 R
50 F = 510 R
Then
η = 1 - 510/1460 = 0.65
We also know that for any heat engine:
η = L / Q1
Where
L: useful work
Q1: heat taken from the source
Rearranging:
Q1 = L / η
Q1 = 120 / 0.65 = 184.6 BTU
In this exercise we will deal with the Carnot cycle and calculate how much heat was initially placed, so we have that:
The heat input to the engine was 184.6 BTU
How does the Carnot Cycle work?The theoretical Carnot cycle is formed by two isothermal transformations and two adiabatic transformations. One of the isothermal transformations is used for the temperature of the hot source, where the expansion process takes place, and the other for the cold source, where the compression process takes place.
The thermal efficiency for a Carnot cycle follows this equation:
[tex]\eta= 1 - T_2/T_1[/tex]
Where:
η: thermal efficiencyT1: temperature of the heat sourceT2: temperature of the heat sinkThese temperatures must be in absolute scale:
[tex]\eta = 1 - 510/1460 = 0.65[/tex]
Rearranging:
[tex]Q_1 = L / \eta\\Q_1 = 120 / 0.65 = 184.6 BTU[/tex]

There are two questions about SolidWorks.
1. Why is it good practice to fully define
sketchgeometry?
2. Describe what happens if you do not select a planeprior to
clicking on the Sketch icon when creating a sketch.
Answer:
1. It is a good practice to fully define a sketch to avoid having erroneous dimensions on the faces of a solid, this avoids that when it is required to make an assembly with the drawn part appear assembly errors.
2. The 2D sketch should always be done on a plane, so solidworks would ask you to select a plane on which you want to make the sketch, on the other hand, if it is a 3D sketch, solidworks allows you to do it without the need for Select any plane.
Yield and tensile strengths and modulus of elasticity . with increasing temperature. (increase/decrease/independent)
Answer:
Yield strength, tensile strength decreases with increasing temperature and modulus of elasticity decreases with increasing in temperature.
Explanation:
The modulus of elasticity of a material is theoretically a function of the shape of curve plotted between the potential energy stored in the material as it is loaded versus the inter atomic distance in the material. The temperature distrots the molecular structure of the metal and hence it has an effect on the modulus of elasticity of a material.
Mathematically we can write,
[tex]E(t)=E_o[1-a\frac{T}{T_m}][/tex]
where,
E(t) is the modulus of elasticity at any temperature 'T'
[tex]E_o[/tex] is the modulus of elasticity at absolute zero.
[tex]T_{m}[/tex] is the mean melting point of the material
Hence we can see that with increasing temperature modulus of elasticity decreases.
In the case of yield strength and the tensile strength as we know that heating causes softening of a material thus we can physically conclude that in general the strength of the material decreases at elevated temperatures.
A 30-seat turboprop airliner whose mass is 14,000 kg takes off from an airport and eventually achieves its cruising speed of 620 km/h at an altitude of 10,000 m. For g = 9.78 m/s^2, determine the change in kinetic energy and the change in gravitational potential energy of the airliner, each in kJ.
Answer:
Ek=207.569MJ
Ep=136.92MJ
Explanation:
kinetic energy is that energy that bodies with mass have when they have movement, while the potential energy is due to the height and mass that bodies have.
taking into account that the plane starts from rest at a height of zero, the following equations are taken to calculate the kinetic energy (Ek) and the potential energy (Ep)
[tex]Ek=0.5mv^{2} \\Ep=mgh[/tex]
where
m=mass=14000kg
v=speed=620km/h=172.2m/s
h=altitude=1000m
g=gravity=9.78 m/s^2
solving
Ek=(0.5)(14000)(172.2)^2=207569880J=207.569MJ
Ep=(14000)(9.78)(1000)=136920000=136.92MJ
A spherical tank is being designed to hold 10 moles of carbon dioxide gas at an absolute pressure of 5 bar and a temperature of 80°F. What diameter spherical tank should be used? The molecular weight of methane is 44 g/mole.
Answer:
r=0.228m
Explanation:
The equation that defines the states of a gas according to its thermodynamic properties is given by the general equation of ideal gases
PV=nRT
where
P=pressure =5bar=500.000Pa
V=volume
n=moles=10
R = universal constant for ideal gases = 8.31J / (K.mol)
T=temperature=80F=299.8K
solvig For V
V=(nRT)/P
[tex]V=(\frac{(10)(8.31)(299.8)}{500000} )\\V=0.0498m^3[/tex]
we know that the volume of a sphere is
[tex]V=\frac{4\pi r^3}{3} \\[/tex]
solving for r
[tex]r=\sqrt[3]{ \frac{3 V}{4\pi } }[/tex]
solving
[tex]r=\sqrt[3]{ \frac{3 (0.049)}{4\pi } }\\r=0.228m[/tex]
A carpenter uses a hammer to strike a nail. Approximate the hammer's weight of 1.8lbs, as being concentrated at the head, and assume that at impact the head is traveling in the -j direction. If the hammer contacts the nail at 50mph and the impact occurs over 0.023 seconds, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the nail of the hammer?
Answer:
The average force F exherted by the nail over the hammer is 178.4 lbf.
Explanation:
The force F exherted by the nail over the hammer is defined as:
F = |I|/Δt
Where I and Δt are the magnitude of the impact and the period of time respectively. We know that the impact can be calculated as the difference in momentum:
I = ΔP = Pf - Pi
Where Pf and Pi are the momentum after and before the impact. Recalling for the definition for momentum:
P = m.v
Where m and v are the mass and the velocity of the body respectively. Notice that final hummer's momentum is zero due to the hammers de-acelerate to zero velocity. Then the momentum variation will be expressed as:
ΔP = - Pi = -m.vi
The initial velocity is given as 50 mph and we will expressed in ft/s:
vi = 50 mph * 1.47 ft/s/mph = 73.3 ft/s
By multiplyng by the mass of 1.8 lbs, we obtain the impulse I:
|I|= |ΔP|= |-m.vi| = 1.8 lb * 73.3 ft/s = 132 lb.ft/s
Dividing the impulse by a duration of 0.023 seconds, we finally find the force F:
F = 132 lb.ft/s / 0.023 s = 5740 lb.ft/s^2
Expressing in lbf:
F = 5740 lb.ft/s^2 * 0.031 lbf/lb.ft/s^2 = 178.4 lbf
What is the origin of the "horsepower"? Why would anyone wish to express power in the unit of horsepower? How many watts are in one horsepower?
Answer:
Horsepower unit was first time used by James Watt in 1782. The story refers that James Watt uses worked with pony to charge coal from the mines. According to that story, he have the need of a unit to measure the force from one of this animals. He founds that they can move 22.000 lbs per minute, so he (arbitrarily) increase this measure in 50% been the unit Horsepower in 33.000 lb/feet per minute.
Explanation:
This measure unit can measure "work" or "force". In the SI correspond to move up 75 Kg, to 1 meter high, in one second.
1 HP = (330 lb) x (100 feet)/1min = 33000 lb x feet/min
Why would anyone wish to express power in HP?
Is a practical unit, because reduce the amount of digits in a specific value. Also, his use is very spread specially in mechanical applications.
1 HP= 746 W (0,746 kW).
What is mass flow of 200 lbm/min in kg/sec?
Answer:
Mass flow in kg /sec will be 1.511 kg/sec
Explanation:
We have given mass flow = 200 lbm/min
We have to convert lbm/min into kg /sec
We know that 1 lbm = 0.4535 kg
So for converting lbm to kg we have multiply with 0.4535
So 200 lbm = 200×0.4535 =90.7 kg
Now we know that 1 minute = 60 sec
So 200 lbm/min [tex]=\frac{200\times 0.4535kg}{60sec}=1.511kg/sec[/tex]
So mass flow in kg /sec will be 1.511 kg/sec
What is the range of a 32-bit unsigned integer?
Answer:
0 to 4294967295
Explanation:
Unsigned integers have only positive numbers and zero. Their range goes from zero to (2^n)-1.
In the case of a 32-bit unsigned integer this would be.
(2^32) - 1 = 4294967296 - 1 = 4294967295
So the range goes from 0 to 4294967295 or form zero to about 4.3 billion.
The minus one term is because the zero takes one of the values.
A 1200-kg car moving at 20 km/h is accelerated
ata constant rate of 4 m/s2 up to a speed of 75km/h.
What are the force and total time required?
Answer:
Force on the car will be 4800 N and time required to cover this distance 13.75 sec
Explanation:
We have given mass of the car = 1200 kg
Initial velocity u = 20 km/h
Final velocity v = 75 km/h
Acceleration [tex]a=4m/sec^2[/tex]
From the first equation of motion we know that
v = u+at, here v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time
So [tex]75=20+4\times t[/tex]
t = 13.75 sec
From second law of motion we know that [tex]F=ma[/tex]
So force [tex]F=1200\times 4=4800N[/tex]

Gob is the primary element in the glass production. Gob is the hot molten glass which can shape according to the shape of container.
Step2
Gob is filled in the mold in glass production. The shape of gob is different for different glass product in glass production process. So, the shape of gob is very important parameter for glass production. This gob is filled in the mold by guided method or the gravity method.
a baseball is thrown downward from a 50 ft tower with an
initialspeed of 18 ft/s.
what is the speed when the ball hits the ground and the time
oftrave?
Answer:
Final velocity will be 36.11 m/sec
Time required by ball to heat the ground = 1.297 sec
Explanation:
We have given height = 50 feet
Initial velocity u = 18 ft/sec
Acceleration due to gravity [tex]g=32.8ft/sec^2[/tex]
We have to find final velocity v
From third equation of motion
[tex]v^2=u^2+2gh[/tex]
So [tex]v^2=18^2+2\times 32.8\times 50=3543.82[/tex]
v = 59.53m/sec
From first equation of motion we know that
v= u+gt
So [tex]59.53=18+32.8\times t[/tex]
t = 1.297 sec
An unknown immiscible liquid seeps into the bottom of an openoil
tank. Some measurements indicate that the depth of theunkown liquid
is 1.5m and the depth of the oil ( specific weight =8.5
kN/m3) floating on top is 5m. A pressure gageconnected
to the bottom of the tank reads 65 kPa. What is thespecific gravity
of the unkown liquid?
Answer:
1.53
Explanation:
Given:
depth of the unknown liquid = 1.5m
the depth of the oil floating on top = 5m
specific weight of oil, γ = 8.5 kN/m³
Total pressure at the bottom = 65 kPa = 65 kN/m²
let the specific weight of the unknown liquid be " γ' "
Now,
The total pressure
= Pressure due to the unknown liquid + Pressure due to floating liquid
or
65 = γ' × 1.5 + γ × 5
or
65 = γ' × 1.5 + 8.5 × 5
or
22.5 = γ' × 1.5
or
γ' = 15 kN/m³
Also,
Specific gravity = [tex]\frac{\textup{Specific weight of unknown liquid}}{\textup{Specific weight of water}}[/tex]
specific weight of water = 9.81 kN/m³
or
Specific gravity = [tex]\frac{15}{\9.81}[/tex] = 1.53
To calculate the specific gravity of the unknown liquid, you use the pressure reading from the tank, along with the height and specific weight of the oil, and then compare it to the specific weight of water.
Explanation:The question revolves around finding the specific gravity of an unknown liquid using a pressure gauge reading at the bottom of a tank containing both oil and the unknown liquid. To find the specific gravity, we use the equation for pressure caused by a static fluid column, which is P = h⋅γ, where P is pressure, h is the height of the fluid column, and γ is the specific weight of the fluid. Based on the given pressure reading and the specific weight of the oil, we can determine the specific weight of the unknown liquid. Once we have that, the specific gravity is found by dividing the specific weight of the unknown liquid by the specific weight of water (9.81 kN/m3, since the specific weight of water is its density (1000 kg/m3) times the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s2)).
The equation to find the specific gravity (SG) of the unknown liquid is SG = γunknown / γwater, where γunknown is the specific weight of the unknown liquid calculated from the pressure reading at the bottom of the tank, and γwater is the specific weight of water.

What is an isochoric process? b) Can heat be exchanged in an isochoric process? c) A 100L container holding an ideal gas at an initial pressure of 10MPa is raised to a pressure of 15MPa. How much work is done?
Answer:
a)A constant volume process is called isochoric process.
b)Yes
c)Work =0
Explanation:
Isochoric process:
A constant volume process is called isochoric process.
In constant volume process work done on the system or work done by the system will remain zero .Because we know that work done give as
work = PΔV
Where P is pressure and ΔV is the change in volume.
For constant volume process ΔV = 0⇒ Work =0
Yes heat transfer can be take place in isochoric process.Because we know that temperature difference leads to transfer of heat.
Given that
Initial P=10 MPa
Final pressure =15 MPa
Volume = 100 L
Here volume of gas is constant so the work work done will be zero.
Various factors to be considered in deciding the factor of safety?
Answer with Explanation:
There are various factors that needed to be taken into account while deciding the factor of safety some of which are summarized below as:
1) Importance of the structure: When we design any structure different structures have different importance in our society. Take an example of hospital, in case a natural disaster struck's a place the hospital should be the designed to withstand the disaster as it's role in the crisis management following a disaster is well understood. Thus while designing it we need it to have a higher factor of safety against failure when compared to a local building.
2) Errors involved in estimation of strength of materials: when we design any component of any machine or a structure we need to have an exact idea of the behavior of the material and know the value of the strength of the material. But many materials that we use in structure such as concrete in buildings have a very complex behavior and we cannot estimate the strength of the concrete absolutely, thus we tend to decrease the strength of the concrete more if errors involved in the estimation of strength are more to give much safety to the structure.
3) Variability of the loads that may act on the structure: If the loads that act on the structure are highly variable such as earthquake loads amd dynamic loads then we tend to increase the factor of safety while estimating the loads on the structure while designing it.
4) Economic consideration: If our project has abundant funds then we can choose a higher factor of safety while designing the project.
A wastewater treatment plant has two primary clarifiers, each 20m in diameter with a 2-m side-water depth. the effluent weirs are inboard channels set on a diameter of 18m. for a flow of 12900m^3/d, calculate the overflow rate, detention time,and weir loading.
Answer:
overflow rate 20.53 m^3/d/m^2
Detention time 2.34 hr
weir loading 114.06 m^3/d/m
Explanation:
calculation for single clarifier
[tex]sewag\ flow Q = \frac{12900}{2} = 6450 m^2/d[/tex]
[tex]surface\ area =\frac{pi}{4}\times diameter ^2 = \frac{pi}{4}\times 20^2[/tex]
[tex]surface area = 314.16 m^2[/tex]
volume of tank[tex] V = A\times side\ water\ depth[/tex]
[tex]=314.16\times 2 = 628.32m^3[/tex]
[tex]Length\ of\ weir = \pi \times diameter of weir[/tex]
[tex] = \pi \times 18 = 56.549 m[/tex]
overflow rate =[tex] v_o = \frac{flow}{surface\ area} = \frac{6450}{314.16} = 20.53 m^3/d/m^2[/tex]
Detention time[tex] t_d = \frac{volume}{flow} = \frac{628.32}{6450} \times 24 = 2.34 hr[/tex]
weir loading[tex]= \frac{flow}{weir\ length} = \frac{6450}{56.549} = 114.06 m^3/d/m[/tex]
As shown, a load of mass 10 kg is situated on a piston of diameter D1 = 140 mm. The piston rides on a reservoir of oil of depth h1 = 42 mm and specific gravity S = 0.8. The reservoir is connected to a round tube of diameter D2 = 5 mm and oil rises in the tube to height h2. Find h2. Assume the oil in the tube is open to atmosphere and neglect the mass of the piston.
Use Pascal's law and the hydrostatic pressure formula to solve for the height of the oil column, considering the specific gravity of the oil and the mass applied on the piston.
Explanation:The question requires the application of principles from fluid mechanics to calculate the height h2 to which an oil rises in a tube, using the specific gravity of the oil and the mass of a load on a piston. Assuming the system is in equilibrium and by using Pascal's law, the pressure applied by the mass onto the piston is transmitted equally throughout the fluid. Therefore, the pressure exerted by the mass on the larger piston is balanced by the hydrostatic pressure of the oil column of height h2 in the smaller tube.
To solve for h2, we can use the formula for hydrostatic pressure P = ρgh, where ρ is the density of the fluid, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the fluid column. Given the specific gravity S of the oil, we can find its density (ρ) by multiplying S by the density of water (1000 kg/m³). Then, by setting the hydrostatic pressure of the oil column equal to the pressure exerted by the mass and solving for h2, we find the height of the oil in the tube.
