Chapter 14, Problem 12CP
For each statement about cow cetrifugal the statement is true or false. and discuss your answer briefly:
(a) A centrifugal pump with radial blades has higher efficiency than the same pump with backward-inclined blades.
(b) A centrifugal pump with radial blades produces a larger pressure rise than the same pump with backward, or forward-inclined blades
over a wide range of
(c) A centrifugal pump with forward-inclined blades ii a good choice when one needs to provide a large pressure rise over a wide range of volume flow rates.
(d) A centrifugal pump with foird-inchned blades would most likely have less blades than a pump of the same size with backward-inclined or radial blades.

The belt suddenly starts in an upward direction so that slipping instantly occurs between the belt and the boxes. The kinetic friction coefficients between the belt and the boxes are μk,A = 0.3 and μk,B = 0.32. Determine the initial acceleration of each box. Will the blocks stay together, or separate? 80 lb 100 lb A B 15° Hint: to see if the boxes stay together or separate, first assume they separate, and see if their resulting motion (acceleration) validates that assumption. If the their motion is not consistent with the assumption of separation, then they must stay together.arrow_forwardAn ideal gas is enclosed in a cylinder which has a movable piston.
