Question
Water flows at a rate of 0.035 m3/s in a horizontal
pipe whose diameter is reduced from 15 cm to 8 cm by a
reducer. If the pressure at the centerline is measured to be 480
kPa and 445 kPa before and after the reducer, respectively,
determine the irreversible head loss in the reducer. Take the
kinetic energy correction factors to be 1.05.

- Water is flowing into a factory in a horizontal cylindrical pipe with a radius of 0.0193 m at ground level.This pipe is then connected to another horizontal cylindrical pipe with a radius of 0.0360 m on a floor of the factory that is h = 12.6 m higher.The connection is made with a vertical section of pipe and an expansion joint.Determine the volume flow rate that will keep the pressure in the two horizontal pipes the same. m3/sarrow_forwardA waste management company handles large dumpsters of construction debris. The sorting process starts by downloading the dumpster from the transport truck and then dumping its contents into a large hopper as shown below. The waste management plant uses a hydraulic cylinder arrangement to tilt the dumpster to the point that the force of gravity will empty the contents. The plant operator activates an electric pump that pumps hydraulic oil into the input piston at an absolute pressure of 2.50 x 106 Pa and drives the output plunger, which has a radius of 0.230 m. If the design of the dumping arrangement is such that the output plunger remains perpendicular to the floor of the dumpster, determine the torque the plunger creates about an axis at the end of the dumpster. Enter a number. Frect pressure to use for the pressure in the oil at the site of the input piston? According to Pascal's Law, how is the pressure in the oil at the site of the output plunger related to the pressure in the oil…arrow_forwardWater is flowing in the pipe shown in the figure below, with the 8.10-cm diameter at point 1 tapering to 3.05 cm at point 2, located y = 11.0 cm below point 1. The water pressure at point 1 is 3.20 x 104 Pa and decreases by 50% at point 2. Assume steady, ideal flow. What is the speed of the water at the following points?

(a) point 1 x Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. m/s (b) point 2 x Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. m/sarrow_forward
- Verify that work input equals work output for a hydraulic system assuming no losses due to friction. Do this by showing that the distance the output force moves is reduced by the same factor that the output force is increased. Assume the volume of the fluid is constant. What effect would friction within the fluid and between components in the system have on the output force? How would this depend on whether or not the fluid is moving?arrow_forwardA sump pump (used to drain water from the basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at the rate of 0.700 L/s, with an output pressure of 2.00 x 105 N/m². You may neglect frictional losses in both parts of this problem. (a) The water enters a hose with a 3.00 cm inside diameter and rises 3.00 m above the pump. What is its pressure (in N/m²) at this point? N/m² (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 1.70 m in height, and widens to 4.00 cm diameter. What is the pressure now (in N/m²)?

- A large, open-topped water tank is being filled from above by a 1.0-cm-diameter hose. The water in the hose has a uniform speed of 16 cm/s. Meanwhile, the tank springs a leak at the bottom. The hole has a diameter of 0.85 cm. Determine the equilibrium level hea of the water in the tank, hea measured relative to the bottom, if water continues flowing into the tank at the same rate.arrow_forwardWhat flows at 0.850 m/s from a hot water heater, through a pressure regulatory at 450 kPa on the ground floor of the house. This same pipe is used to supply water to a bathtub 3.7 m higher in the household at a pressure of 414 kPa. What is the flow speed in the pipe on the same floor as the bathtub?arrow_forwardA sump pump (used to drain water from the basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at the rate of 0.75 L/s, with an output pressure of 1.5×10^5 Pa.
