An oil refinery uses a Venturi tube to measure the flow rate of gasoline. The density of the gasoline is
ρ = 7.40 ✕ 102 kg/m3,
the inlet and outlet tubes, respectively, have a radius of 3.74 cm and 1.87 cm, and the difference in input and output pressure is
P1 − P2 = 1.20 kPa.

a) find the speed of the gasoline as it leaves the hose


b) find the fluid flow rate in cubic meters per second

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) V₂ = 1.86 m/s

(b) Q = 5.1 x 10⁻⁴ m³/s

Explanation:

(a)

The formula derived for Venturi tube is as follows:

P₁ - P₂ = (ρ/2)(V₂² - V₁²)

where,

P₁ - P₂ = Difference in Pressure of Inlet and Outlet = 1.2 KPa = 1200 Pa

ρ = Density of Gasoline = 7.4 x 10² kg/m³

V₂ = Exit Velocity = ?

V₁ = Inlet Velocity

Therefore,

1200 Pa = [(7.4 x 10²kg/m³)/2](V₂² - V₁²)

V₂² - V₁² = (1200 Pa)/(3.7 x 10² kg/m³)

V₂² - V₁² = 3.24 m²/s²   ------------------- equation (1)

Now, we will use continuity equation:

A₁V₁ = A₂V₂

where,

A₁ = Inlet Area = πd₁²/4 = π(0.0374 m)²/4 = 1.098 x 10⁻³ m²

A₂ = Exit Area = πd₂²/4 = π(0.0187 m)²/4 = 2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²

Therefore,

(1.098 x 10⁻³ m²)V₁ = (2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²)V₂

V₁ = (2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²)V₂/(1.098 x 10⁻³ m²)

V₁ = 0.25 V₂  

using this value in equation (1):

V₂² - (0.25 V₂)² = 3.24 m²/s²

0.9375 V₂² = 3.24 m²/s²

V₂² = (3.24 m²/s²)/0.9375

V₂ = √(3.456 m²/s²)

V₂ = 1.86 m/s

(b)

For fluid flow rate we use the following equation:

Flow Rate = Q = A₂V₂ = (2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²)(1.86 m/s)

Q = 5.1 x 10⁻⁴ m³/s

Answer 2

The formula for finding variables in a  Venturi tube is shown below:

The speed of the gasoline

P₁ - P₂ = (ρ/2)(V₂² - V₁²)

where, P₁ - P₂ is difference in pressure of Inlet and outlet, ρ = density, V₂ = exit velocity and V₁ is inlet velocity

P₁ - P₂ = 1.2 KPa = 1200 Pa

ρ = 7.4 x 10² kg/m³

V₂ = Exit Velocity = ?

V₁ = Inlet Velocity

We then substitute the variables into this equation.

P₁ - P₂ = (ρ/2)(V₂² - V₁²)

1200 Pa = [(7.4 x 10²kg/m³)/2](V₂² - V₁²)

V₂² - V₁² = (1200 Pa)/(3.7 x 10² kg/m³)

V₂² - V₁² = 3.24 m²/s²  ------ equation (1)

The  continuity equation A₁V₁ = A₂V₂ is then used

where,A₁ = Inlet area = πd₁²/4 = π(0.0374 m)²/4 = 1.098 x 10⁻³ m²

A₂ = Exit Area = πd₂²/4 = π(0.0187 m)²/4 = 2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²

(1.098 x 10⁻³ m²)V₁ = (2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²)V₂

V₁ = (2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²)V₂/(1.098 x 10⁻³ m²)

V₁ = 0.25 V₂  

We then substitute the value into equation 1

V₂² - (0.25 V₂)² = 3.24 m²/s²

0.9375 V₂² = 3.24 m²/s²

V₂² = (3.24 m²/s²)/0.9375

V₂ = √(3.456 m²/s²)

V₂ = 1.86 m/s

The fluid flow rate we use the following equation:

This can be calculated using the formula

Flow Rate = Q = A₂V₂

                  = (2.746 x 10⁻⁴ m²)(1.86 m/s)

                 = 5.1 x 10⁻⁴ m³/s

Explanation: Environment is a place where different things are such as a swampy or hot environment. They constantly interact with it and adapt themselves to conditions in their environment. In the environment there are different interactions between animals, plants, soil, water, and other living and non-living things. Environment plays an important role in healthy living and the existence of life on planet earth. Earth is a home for different living species and we all are dependent on the environment for food, air, water, and other needs. Therefore, it is important for every individual to save and protect our environment. To divide environments' sorts we can mention 3 kinds of environments Natural, industrial, and social environment.

Answer:

The average speed is 22.2 km/h

Explanation:

Average Speed

Given an object travels a total distance d and took a total time t, then the average speed is:

[tex]\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]

The mailman first drives d1=7 km at v1=15 km/h. The time taken to drive is:

[tex]\displaystyle t1=\frac{d1}{v1}=\frac{7}{15}=0.467\ h[/tex]

Then he drives d2=7 km at v2=43 km/h taking a time of:

[tex]\displaystyle t2=\frac{d2}{v2}=\frac{7}{43}=0.163\ h[/tex]

The total time is

t=0.467 h + 0.163 h = 0.63 h

The total distance is

d = 7 km + 7 km = 14 km

The average speed is:

[tex]\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{14}{0.63}=22.2\ km/h[/tex]

The average speed is 22.2 km/h

How does the abundance of hydrogen and helium support the Big Bang Theory?

Answers

It is the proportion predicted to be present in the early universe.

The hydrogen and helium abundance helps us to model the expansion rate of the early universe.

In the abundance of hydrogen and helium, we can say that they account for nearly all the nuclear matter in today's universe.

In big Bang model, the universe is mostly light or protons.

This abundance of hydrogen and helium is consistent with this big bang model. The process of forming this hydrogen and helium is often called big bang nucleosynthesis.

The Schramm's model for relative abundances indicate that helium is about 25% by mass and hydrogen about 73% with all other elements constituting less than 2%.

Several proponents of big Bang theory has proposed similar relative abundance for hydrogen and helium. In all  it is clear that hydrogen and helium constitute of more than 98% of the ordinary matter in the universe.

Finally, the hydrogen and helium abundance helps us to model the expansion rate of the early universe.

Two identical conducting spheres each have a charge of 2 C. They have a radius of 0.1 m and are separated by 0.5 meters. If you were to increase the radius of these spheres to 0.2 meters, the electrostatic force between them would

Answers

Answer:

The electrostatic force will remain the same

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The charge on the each conducting sphere is [tex]q = 2 \ C[/tex]

      The radius each sphere is [tex]r_1 = r_2 = r = 0. 1\ m[/tex]

     

Generally electrostatic force between the sphere is mathematically represented as

             [tex]F = \frac{k * q_1 q_2 }{d^2}[/tex]

Here  k is the coulomb constant ,

         d  is the distance between the two sphere which is measured from one center of the sphere to the other center of the sphere  

Now from the question we are told that the radius of the spheres is doubled (i.e  from 0.10 m  to 0.2 m ) , this will not affect the distance between the sphere because their center are still in the same position

and given there is no change in the distance between the spheres , the electrostatic force will remain the same

An arrow in a bow has 357 J of elastic potential energy How much Winette enere

Answers

Answer:

357 J

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of arrow in the stretched bow is 357 J.

The kinetic energy of the arrow after it has been shot is given by half of the product of the arrow's mass and velocity of the arrow.

Here there are no other forms of energy at play here. Only potential and kinetic energy.

As we know that in any system the energy is conserved accordingly the elastic potential energy of the arrow will be equal to the kinetic energy of the bow after it is released i.e., 357 J.

If a 25 kg lawnmower produces 347 w and does 9514 J of work, for
how much time did the lawnmower run?

Answers

Steps 1 and 2)

The variables are W = work, P = power, and t = time. In this case, W = 9514 joules and P = 347 watts.

The goal is to solve for the unknown time t.

-----------------------

Step 3)

Since we want to solve for the time, and we have known W and P values, we use the equation t = W/P

-----------------------

Step 4)

t = W/P

t = 9514/347

t = 27.4178674351586

t = 27.4 seconds

-----------------------

Step 5)

The lawn mower ran for about 27.4 seconds. I rounded to three sig figs because this was the lower amount of sig figs when comparing 9514 and 347.

-----------------------

A car travels at a speed of 55 km/hr and slows down to 10 km/hr in 20 seconds. What is the acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

a = 0.62 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics. But first, we must convert speeds from kilometers per hour to meters per second.

[tex]v_{f} =v_{o} -a*t[/tex]

[tex]55[\frac{km}{hr}]*\frac{1hr}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km} =15.27[\frac{m}{s} ]\\10[\frac{km}{hr} ]*\frac{1hr}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km} = 2.77[\frac{m}{s} ][/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity = 2,77 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 15.27 [m/s]

t = time = 20 [s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Now replacing:

[tex]2.77=15.27-a*(20)\\20*a=12.49\\a = 0.62[m/s^{2}][/tex]

Answers

Answer:

F =  3.32 x 10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

The force of attraction between two masses is given by Newton's Law of Gravitation, as follows:

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

where,

F = Force between Romeo and Juliet = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

m₁ = mass of Romeo = 68 kg

m₂ = mass of space station = 4.58 x 10⁵ kg

r = distance = 25 m

Therefore,

F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(68 kg)(4.58 x 10⁵ kg)/(25 m)²

F =  3.32 x 10⁻⁶ N
