Inlet : $v_i=0.0646\frac{m}{s}$

Outlet: $v_o=0.171\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

1) Notation and important concepts

Flow of mass represent "the mass of a substance which passes per unit of time".

Flow rate represent "a measure of the volume of liquid that moves in a certain amount of time"

Specific volume is "the ratio of the substance's volume to its mass. It is the reciprocal of density."

Isentropic process is a "thermodynamic process, in which the entropy of the fluid or gas remains constant".

We know that the flow of mass is given by the following expression

$\dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}$ , where $\dot{V}$ represent the flow rate and $\upsilon$ the specific volume at the pressure and temperature given.

A_i=0.5m^2 is the inlet area

P_i=600Kpa pressure at the inlet area

T_i=70C temperature at the inlet area

A_o=1m^2 is the outlet area

P_o=100Kpa pressure at the outlet area

T_o=C temperature at the outlet area

$\dot{m}=0.75\frac{kg}{s}$ represent the flow of mass

If we look at the first figure attached Table A-13 we see that the specific volume for the inlet condition is

$\upsilon_i =0.04304\frac{kg}{m^3}$ and the entropy is $h_i=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}=h_o$

With the value of entropy and the outlet pressure of 100 Kpa we can find we specific volume at the outlet condition since w ehave the entropy $h_o=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}$

Since on the table we don't have the exact value we need to interpolate between these two values (see the second figure attached)

$h_1=1.0531\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_1=0.22473\frac{kg}{m^3}$

$h_2=1.0829\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_2=0.23349\frac{kg}{m^3}$

Our interest value would be given using interpolation like this:

$\upsilon=0.22473+\frac{(0.23349-0.22473)}{(1.0829-1.0531)}(1.0645-1.0531)=0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}$

2) Solution to the problem

Now since we have all the info required to solve the problem we can find the velocities on this way.

We know from the definition of flow of mass that $\dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}$ , but since $\dot{V}=Av$ we have this:

$\dot{m}=\frac{Av}{\upsilon}$

If we solve from the velocity v we have this:

$v=\frac{\upsilon \dot{m}}{A}$ (*)

And now we just need to replace the values into equation (*)

For the inlet case:

$v_i=\frac{\upsilon_i \dot{m}}{A_i}=\frac{0.043069\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{0.5m^2}=0.0646\frac{m}{s}$

For the oulet case:

$v_o=\frac{\upsilon_o \dot{m}}{A_o}=\frac{0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{1m^2}=0.171\frac{m}{s}$

Answer from: Quest

Nps pollution is caused by rainfall or snowmelt moving over and through the ground. nonpoint source pollution can include: excess fertilizers, herbicides and insecticides from agricultural lands and residential areas. oil, grease and toxic chemicals from urban runoff and energy production

Answer from: Quest

when two balls of the different masses are dropped from equal height, they reach the ground at the same time .this is because they experience the same acceleration.

the acceleration is independent of mass.

thus when they are dropped they will always maintain the same velocity and travel the same distance (neglect air resistance of course) at the same time.
