Minor losses occur in Solution of pipe flow.arrow_forwardConvert the following units The specific gravity if steel is 7.9 . What is the volumr in cubic feet of a steel in got weighing 2000 lb? Water is flowing through a 1.5 in diameter pipe with a velocity of 2ft/s. What is the kinetic energy of water in ft.lbf/lbm? Heat capacity for acetic acid can be calculated using the following: a. Cp=8.41+2.4346×10-5T ; b. Cp=J.mol-1°C-1 and T = °C. Please modify the formula so that the resulting expression has the associated units of kj.kmol-1 and T is in K.arrow_forwardF2 =P2A2 F, = P,A, 1. What is the force required in newton (N), to lift a car weighing 1000 -kg, using a hydraulic car jack with a piston area ratio (A2/A1) of 10. 2. The large piston in a hydraulic lift has a radius of 250 cm2. What force (kgf) must be applied to the small piston with a radius of 25 cm2 in order to raise a car of mass 1500 kg? 3. A trash compactor pushes down with a force of 500 N on a 3 cm2 input piston, causing a force of 30,000 N to crush the trash. What is the area of the output piston that crushes the trash?arrow_forward
- 20. Calculate the pressure at a height of 8000 m above sea-level if the atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kN/m² and temperature is 15°C at the sea-level assuming (i) air is incompressible, (ii) pressure variation follows adiabatic law, and (iii) pressure variation follows isothermal law. Take the density of air at the sea-level equal to 1.285 kg/m³. Neglect variation of gwith altitude. [Ans. (i) 607.5 N/m², (ii) 31.5 kN/m² (iji) 37 45 kN/m² 1arrow_forwardTRUE OR FALSE Specific Volume is a measure of a fluid's resistance to deformation under shear stress. While a unit expresses a specific type of physical quantity, a dimension assigns a property of scale so that the unit can be measured. Temperature at which water has the highest density is usually taken as 4°C(39.2°F). The continuum concept in hydraulics assumes that a fluid often behaves as if itwere comprised of continuous matter that is infinitely divisible into smaller and smaller parts.arrow_forwardk = 2.5 lb/ft 5 G 0.85 4 ftarrow_forward
