Ski resorts pump water to make snow when the weather does not cooperate. Consider a resort that uses 100 gal/min of 35 °F water. It is pumped from the water holding pond through a 4-in. diameter, 3000-ft steel pipe to the top of the mountain. The elevation difference is 950 ft. The gage pressure required at the nozzle at the end of the pipe is 150 lbf/in.2 . Determine the required pumping power (in hp).

Modern high speed trains do not have perpendicular expansion gaps where rails are joined end-to-end any more they are mostly welded together but what might happen if there was a spell of particularly hot weather that causes inspection of the tracks?

Plan an experiment to measure the surface tension of a liquid similar to water. if necessary, review the ncfmf video surface tension for ideas. which method would be most suitable for use in an undergraduate laboratory? what experimental precision could be expected?

An array of m-50 thermoelectric modules is installed on the exhaust of a sports car. each module has an effective seebeck coefficient of sp of 0.143 5vk and an internal electrical resistance of r.-4 ? in addition, : (15 points each module is of width w 60mm and contains n=100 pairs of semiconducting pellets. each pellet hasan overall length of 2l-5mm and a cross-sectional area as 1.2 x 10'm and is characterized by a thermal conductivity of kpl2w rnk. the hot side of each module is exposed to exhaust gases at·p650c with hia4ow rrk while the osite side of each module is cooled by pressurized water at surface) and 156 °c (at the cool surface). 11s c with h: -500w/m'k. the modules are wired n series and the load resistance is r d=400ohm .the module surface temperatures, t, and ts are 183 "c (at the hot surface and 156c (at the cool surface) a)-draw a schematic of this scenario and label all parts. a. b. if the induced current, i, is 0.15 amps, what is the total power (pa) for one module? c. what is the total power harvest from the exhaust with all 50 modules?
