Level measurement in a sump tank is provided by a transducer scaled as 1.734 V/m. A pump is to be tumed on by application of 9 V when the sump level exceeds 19.5 m. The pump is to be turned back off when the sump level drops to 3.65 m. Find Vy and v Given R1/R2 = 1.5. a) VH= b) VL=
TRUE OR FALSE Specific Volume is a measure of a fluid's resistance to deformation under shear stress. While a unit expresses a specific type of physical quantity, a dimension assigns a property of scale so that the unit can be measured. Temperature at which water has the highest density is usually taken as 4°C(39.2°F). The continuum concept in hydraulics assumes that a fluid often behaves as if itwere comprised of continuous matter that is infinitely divisible into smaller and smaller parts.
Assume that wind turbines are designed such that irreparable damage should occur only during local storms, which occur, on average, once per hundred years. Calculate the annual insurance fee, $/year, in constant dollars for a unit having an initial cost of $300,000 if the worldwide insurance investment pool for wind farms earns a net real inflation-free rate of return of 5%/year compounded continuously.
