The driving force for fluid flow is the pressure difference, and a pump operates by raising the pressure of a fluid (by converti

ng the mechanical shaft work to flow energy). A gasoline pump is measured to consume 3.8 kW of electric power when operating. If the pressure differential between the outlet and inlet of the pump is measured to be 7 kPa and the changes in velocity and elevation are negligible, determine the maximum possible volume flow rate of gasoline.

Answer:

The maximum possible volume flow of gasoline is 0.543 m^3/s

Explanation:

Power = pressure differential × volume flow rate

Power = 3.8 kW

Pressure differential = 7 kPa

Volume flow rate = power ÷ pressure differential = 3.8 ÷ 7 = 0.543 m^3/s

Consider insulation on a circular pipe For the same thickness and type of insulation, the thermal resistance of the insulation i
leonid [27]

Answer:

b). The same for all pipes independent of the diameter

Explanation:

We know,

R_{conduction}=\frac{ln(\frac{r_{2}}{r_{1}})}{2\pi LK}

R_{convection}=\frac{1}{h(2\pi r_{2}L)}

From the above formulas we can conclude that the thermal resistance of a substance mainly depends upon heat transfer coefficient,whereas radius has negligible effects on heat transfer coefficient.

We also know,

Factors on which thermal resistance of insulation depends are :

1. Thickness of the insulation

2. Thermal conductivity of the insulating material.

Therefore from above observation we can conclude that the thermal resistance of the insulation is same for all pipes independent of diameter.

In which of the following branches of engineering is the practice not restricted?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

a) civil engineering.

Explanation:

Civil engineering is a professional engineering program that deals with the construction, design, and maintenance of all the natural and man-made environments including dams, buildings, railways, and roads.

Civil engineering is the branch of engineering that is the practice not restricted because civil engineer is not restricted to academic profession but practice in designing and construction can make someone a professional civil engineer.

Hence, the correct answer is "a)."

A fatigue test was conducted in which the mean stress was 46.2 MPa and the stress amplitude was 219 MPa.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

a)σ₁ = 265.2 MPa

b)σ₂ = -172.8 MPa

c)Stress\ ratio =-0.65

d)Range = 438 MPa

Explanation:

Given that

Mean stress ,σm= 46.2 MPa

Stress amplitude ,σa= 219 MPa

Lets take

Maximum stress level = σ₁

Minimum stress level =σ₂

The mean stress given as

\sigma_m=\dfrac{\sigma_1+\sigma_2}{2}

2\sigma_m={\sigma_1+\sigma_2}

2 x 46.2 =  σ₁ +  σ₂

 σ₁ +  σ₂ = 92.4 MPa    --------1

The amplitude stress given as

\sigma_a=\dfrac{\sigma_1-\sigma_2}{2}

2\sigma_a={\sigma_1-\sigma_2}

2 x 219 =  σ₁ -  σ₂

 σ₁ -  σ₂ = 438 MPa    --------2

By adding the above equation

2  σ₁ = 530.4

σ₁ = 265.2 MPa

-σ₂ = 438 -265.2 MPa

σ₂ = -172.8 MPa

Stress ratio

Stress\ ratio =\dfrac{\sigma_{min}}{\sigma_{max}}

Stress\ ratio =\dfrac{-172.8}{265.2}

Stress\ ratio =-0.65

Range = 265.2 MPa - ( -172.8 MPa)

Range = 438 MPa

A 150-lbm astronaut took his bathroom scale (a spring scale) and a beam scale (compares masses) to the moon where the local grav
kozerog [31]

Answer:

a)Wt =25.68 lbf

b)Wt = 150 lbf

F= 899.59 N

Explanation:

Given that

g = 5.48 ft/s^2.

m= 150 lbm

a)

Weight on the spring scale(Wt) = m g

We know that

1\ lbf=32.17 \ lmb.ft/s^2

Wt = 150 x 5.48/32 lbf

Wt =25.68 lbf

b)

On the beam scale

This is scale which does not affects by gravitational acceleration.So the wight on the beam scale will be 150 lbf.

Wt = 150 lbf

If the plane is moving upward with acceleration 6 g's then the for F

F = m a

We know that

1\ ft/s^2= 0.304\ m/s^2

5.48\ ft/s^2= 1.66\ m/s^2

a=6 g's

a=9.99\ m/s^2

So

F = 90 x 9.99 N

F= 899.59 N
