You have been assigned the task of reviewing the relief scenarios for a specific chemical reactor in your plant. You are currently reviewing the scenario involving the failure of a nitrogen regulator that provides inert padding to the vapor space of the reactor. Your calculations show that the maximum discharge rate of nitrogen through the existing relief system of the vessel is 0.5 kgls, However, your calculations also show that the flow of nitrogen through the l-in supply pipe will be much greater than this. Thus under the current configuration a failure of the nitrogen regulator will result in an over pressuring of the reactor. One way to solve the problem is to install an orifice plate in the nitrogen line, thus limiting the flow to the maximum of 0.5 kg/s. Determine the orifice diameter (in cm) required to achieve this flow. Assume a nitrogen source supply pressure of 15 bar absolute. The ambient temperature is 25°C and the ambient pressure is 1 atm. 3.

What is the formula for resultant force
Answer:
F = 3 N + 2 N = 5 N
Explanation:
Resultant force F = 3 N + 2 N = 5 N to the right. The resultant force is 5 N to the right. Two forces that act in opposite directions produce a resultant force that is smaller than either individual force. To find the resultant force subtract the magnitude of the smaller force from the magnitude of the larger force.

a basketball player pushes down with a force of 50N on a basketball that is indlated to a gage pressure of 8.0x10^4 Pa. What is the diameter of comtact between the ball nad the floor
Answer:
The diameter of the contact area between the ball and the floor is approximately 28 milimeters.
Explanation:
The basketball experiments a normal stress ([tex]\sigma[/tex]), in pascals, due to normal force from the floor ([tex]N[/tex]). By definition of normal stress, we have the following equation:
[tex]\sigma = \frac{4\cdot N}{\pi\cdot D^{2}}[/tex] (1)
Where [tex]D[/tex] is the diameter of the contact area between the ball and the floor, in meters.
Please notice that magnitude of the normal force equals the magnitude of external force given by the basketball player and weight is negligible in comparison with normal and external forces.
If we know that [tex]N = 50\,N[/tex] and [tex]\sigma = 8.0\times 10^{4}\,Pa[/tex], then the diameter of the contact area is:
[tex]\sigma = \frac{4\cdot N}{\pi\cdot D^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]D^{2} = \frac{4\cdot N}{\pi\cdot \sigma}[/tex]
[tex]D = 2\cdot \sqrt{\frac{N}{\pi\cdot \sigma} }[/tex]
[tex]D = 2\cdot \sqrt{\frac{50\,N}{\pi\cdot (8\times 10^{4}\,Pa)} }[/tex]
[tex]D\approx 0.028\,m[/tex] [tex](28\,mm)[/tex]
The diameter of the contact area between the ball and the floor is approximately 28 milimeters.

A steel rod, which is free to move, has a length of 200 mm and a diameter of 20 mm at a temperature of 15oC. If the rod is heated uniformly to115 oC, determine the length and the diameter of this rod to the nearest micron at the new temperature if the linear coefficient of thermal expansion of steel is 12.5 x 10-6 m/m/oC. What is the stress on the rod at 115oC.
Explanation:
thermal expansion ∝L = (δL/δT)÷L ----(1)
δL = L∝L + δT ----(2)
we have δL = 12.5x10⁻⁶
length l = 200mm
δT = 115°c - 15°c = 100°c
putting these values into equation 1, we have
δL = 200*12.5X10⁻⁶x100
= 0.25 MM
L₂ = L + δ L
= 200 + 0.25
L₂ = 200.25mm
12.5X10⁻⁶ *115-15 * 20
= 0.025
20 +0.025
D₂ = 20.025
as this rod undergoes free expansion at 115°c, the stress on this rod would be = 0

Answer:
2102.1 m
Explanation:
Temperature at the equator = 0⁰
Radius of the earth = 6.37x10⁶
Required:
We how to find out what the clearance between tape and ground would be if temperature increases to 30 degrees.
Final temperature = ∆T = 303-273 = 30
S = 11x10^-6
The clearance R = Ro*S*∆T
=6.37x10⁶x 11x10^-6x30
= 2102.1m
Or 2.102 kilometers

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at 2208C with a mass flow rate of 1.2 kg/s. Refrigerant exits at 7 bar, 708C. Changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. Determine (a) the volumetric flow rates at the inlet and exit, each in m3 /s, and (b) the power input to the compressor, in kW.'
Answer:
a)[tex]V_1=4.88m^2/s[/tex]
[tex]V_2=4.88m^2/s[/tex]
b)[tex]P=-119.18kW[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Steady State Saturated vapor [tex]T_1= -20C=>253k[/tex]
Mass Flow rate [tex]M=1.2kg/s[/tex]
Exit Pressure [tex]P_2=7bar[/tex]
Exit Temperature [tex]T_2=70C=>373k[/tex]
From Refrigerant 134a Properties
[tex]T_1= -20C =>P_1=1.399 bar[/tex]
Generally the equation for Volumetric Flow rate is mathematically given by
For Inlet
[tex]V_1=m\frac{RT_1}{P_1}[/tex]
[tex]V_1=m\frac{8314*253}{1.399*10^3}[/tex]
[tex]V_1=18.97m^2/s[/tex]
For outlet
[tex]V_2=m\frac{RT_2}{P_2}[/tex]
[tex]V_2=1.2*\frac{8314*343}{7*10^3}[/tex]
[tex]V_2=4.88m^2/s[/tex]
b)
Generally the equation for Steady state mass and energy equation is mathematically given by
[tex]P=m(h_1-h_2)[/tex]
From Refrigerant 134a Properties
[tex]T_1= -20C =>h_1=24.76kJ/kg[/tex]
[tex]T_2= 70C =>h_2=124.08kJ/kg[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]P=1.2(12.76-124.08)[/tex]
[tex]P=-119.18kW[/tex]
Therefore
Power input into the compressor is
[tex]P=-119.18kW[/tex]

A balanced three-phase inductive load is supplied in steady state by a balanced three-phase voltage source with a phase voltage of 120 V rms. The load draws a total of 10 kW at a power factor of 0.85 (lagging). Calculate the rms value of the phase currents and the magnitude of the per-phase load impedance. Draw a phasor diagram showing all tlme voltages and currents.
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given question:
Explanation:
Line voltage:
[tex]V_L=\sqrt{3}V_{ph}=\sqrt{3}(120) \ v[/tex]
Power supplied to the load:
[tex]P_{L}=\sqrt{3}V_{L}I_{L} \cos \phi[/tex]
[tex]10\times 10^3=\sqrt{3}(120 \sqrt{3}) I_{L}\ (0.85)\\\\I_{L}= 32.68\ A[/tex]
Check wye-connection, for the phase current:
[tex]I_{ph}=I_L= 32.68\ A[/tex]
Therefore,
Phasor currents: [tex]32.68 \angle 0^{\circ} \ A \ ,\ 32.68 \angle 120^{\circ} \ A\ ,\ and\ 32.68 -\angle 120^{\circ} \ A[/tex]
Magnitude of the per-phase load impedance:
[tex]Z_{ph}=\frac{V_{ph}}{I_{ph}}=\frac{120}{32.68}=3.672 \ \Omega[/tex]
Phase angle:
[tex]\phi = \cos^{-1} \ (0.85) =31.79^{\circ}[/tex]

Car B is traveling a distance dd ahead of car A. Both cars are traveling at 60 ft/s when the driver of B suddenly applies the brakes, causing his car to decelerate at ft/s^2. It takes the driver of car A 0.75 s to react (this is the normal reaction time for drivers). When he applies his brakes, he decelerates at 18 ft/s^2.
Required:
Determine the minimum distance d between the cars so as to avoid a collision.
Answer:
Explanation:
Using the kinematics equation [tex]v = v_o + a_ct[/tex] to determine the velocity of car B.
where;
[tex]v_o =[/tex] initial velocity
[tex]a_c[/tex] = constant deceleration
Assuming the constant deceleration is = -12 ft/s^2
Also, the kinematic equation that relates to the distance with the time is:
[tex]S = d + v_ot + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]
Then:
[tex]v_B = 60-12t[/tex]
The distance traveled by car B in the given time (t) is expressed as:
[tex]S_B = d + 60 t - \dfrac{1}{2}(12t^2)[/tex]
For car A, the needed time (t) to come to rest is:
[tex]v_A = 60 - 18(t-0.75)[/tex]
Also, the distance traveled by car A in the given time (t) is expressed as:
[tex]S_A = 60 * 0.75 +60(t-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*(t-0.750)^2[/tex]
Relating both velocities:
[tex]v_B = v_A[/tex]
[tex]60-12t = 60 - 18(t-0.75)[/tex]
[tex]60-12t =73.5 - 18t[/tex]
[tex]60- 73.5 = - 18t+ 12t[/tex]
[tex]-13.5 =-6t[/tex]
t = 2.25 s
At t = 2.25s, the required minimum distance can be estimated by equating both distances traveled by both cars
i.e.
[tex]S_B = S_A[/tex]
[tex]d + 60 t - \dfrac{1}{2}(12t^2) = 60 * 0.75 +60(t-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*(t-0.750)^2[/tex]
[tex]d + 60 (2.25) - \dfrac{1}{2}(12*(2.25)^2) = 60 * 0.75 +60((2.25)-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*((2.25)-0.750)^2[/tex]
d + 104.625 = 114.75
d = 114.75 - 104.625
d = 10.125 ft

Answer:
[tex](\frac{r_1}{r_2})^2=\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Diameter 1 [tex]d_1=1.0[/tex]
Diameter 2 [tex]d_2=3.0[/tex]
Generally the equation for Radius is mathematically given by
At Diameter 1
[tex]r_{1}=\frac{1}{2} inch[/tex]
At Diameter 2
[tex]r_{2}=\frac{3}{2} inch[/tex]
Generally the equation for continuity is mathematically given by
[tex]A_1V_1=A_2V_2[/tex]
Therefore
[tex](\frac{r_1}{r_2})^2=(\frac{1/2}{3/2})^2[/tex]
[tex](\frac{r_1}{r_2})^2=\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
