During processing, a polymer is pumped through the plant. The pump must produce enough power to move the material a height of 10 meters [m] at a volumetric flowrate of 0.2 cubic meters per second [m³/s]. Assume
the specific gravity of the polymer is 0.6262. If the pump is 75% efficient, what is the power rating on the pump (input power) to supply the necessary potential energy in units of horsepower [hp]?

Remove plunger from the syringe and insert a small marshmallow into the syringe. 3. Place plunger back in syringe so the volume reading is approximately at the 15-mL mark. 4. Place a syringe tip cap over the tip of the syringe. 5. Pull the plunger out. What is the BEST description of what will happen when the plunger is pulled out? The marshmallow will expand because the volume A) inside the syringe has increased. As the pressure increased in the syringe the volume B) of the syringe and the marshmallow increased. The marshmallow expands because the volume has increased and the pressure inside the syringe has C) decreased. There is a direct relationship between volume and pressure so as the volume increases the pressure D) increases. The marshmallow shrinks.arrow_forwardLearning Goal: To understand the meaning and the basic applications of PV diagrams for an ideal gas. As you know, the parameters of an ideal gas are described by the equation PV = nRT, where p is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gas constant, and T is the absolute temperature of the gas. It follows that, for a portion of an ideal gas, One can see that, if the amount of gas remains constant, it is impossible to change just one parameter of the gas: At least one more parameter would also change. For instance, if the pressure of the gas is changed, we can be sure that either the volume or the temperature of the gas (or, maybe, both!) would also change. To explore these changes, it is often convenient to draw a graph showing one parameter as a function of the other. Although there are many choices of axes, the most common one is a plot of pressure as a function of volume: a pV diagram.
