A 20" round duct is 275' in length. The duct is carrying 2,900 CFM at a friction loss of 0.12 inches WG per 100 feet. What is the total friction loss through the duct?

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?

A100-watt light bulb illuminates a solar cell. the electricity from the solar cell operates a water pump that delivers 1 watt of power. what is the efficiency of the system?

Amass attached to a spring is displaced from its equilibrium position by 5cm and released. the system then oscillates in simple harmonic motion with a period of 1s. if that same mass–spring system is displaced from equilibrium by 10cm instead, what will its period be in this case? a mass attached to a spring is displaced from its equilibrium position by and released. the system then oscillates in simple harmonic motion with a period of . if that same mass–spring system is displaced from equilibrium by instead, what will its period be in this case? a) 0.5sb) 2sc) 1sd) 1.4s
