Note2: You’re free to make assumptions regarding any value you think you need in order to solve the problem. Just explain your reasoning behind your assumption in a logical manner.
Note3: please explain clearly and step by step
A core was mounted in a gas permeameter to measure permeability. Determine the liquid permeability (mD) of the core using gas (in oilfield units).
The laboratory data are as follows:
Diameter of the core = 3.78 cm
Length of the core = 7.63 cm
Gas viscosity = 0.0148 cP
Flow rate = 9.07 cm3/s
P1 = 1.439 atm
P2 = 1.086 atm

- Please answer the question clearly, stating how you chose the formulas and what each variable represents. Thank you!arrow_forwardA tentative rule was given about tipping in Testing Experiment Table 8.4, where if a vertical line passing through the object's center of mass is within the object's area of support the object does not tip. According to the rule, the full box of crackers in the following experiment, which has a width of 13 cm and a height of 20 cm, was seen to tip at an angle of: θc=tan−1(13 cm/20 cm)=33∘θ According to the rule, at what angle will a box with the left half filled with crackers begin to tip? Assume the box is light-weight and that the contents remain in the configuration inarrow_forwardIf a ball rolls up a ramp to a height of .3 m on the ramp (inclined at an angle of 20 degrees), what was its initial velocity? (question only involves potential energy. Ignore the fact that the ball is rolling.) Please provide a complete solution set with no skipped steps and double check your work! Thank you.arrow_forward
- Using Newton’s laws, we could show that for some pendulums, the period T is related to the length l and free-fall acceleration g by T=2pi square root of (l/g) , or T2 = (4pi2/g) * l Does one of your graphs support this relationship? Explain. (Hint: Can the term in parentheses be treated as a constant of proportionality?)arrow_forwardTHERMODYNAMICS UPVOTE WILL BE GIVEN. PLEASE WRITE THE COMPLETE SOLUTIONS LEGIBLY.

- You are tasked with designing a simple wooded step ladder for use in a home. It's a three rung/level ladder with 70cm being the height of the highest rung/platform. The middle rung is 46cm off the ground and the lowest rung is 23cm off the ground. You are required to submit an anthropometric analysis of this step-ladder that would be used to determine the dimensions like step width, thickness etc. Give brief explanations for each selection of your anthropometric valuesarrow_forwardThe amount of time it takes for a pendulum to swing “to-and-fro” through one complete cycle is called the “period” and is calculated using the following equation: where T = period in seconds, I = mass moment of inertia, m = mass of pendulum in kilograms g = gravitational acceleration, 9.8 m/s2, h = effective length of pendulum in meters What is the appropriate unit for I if the preceding equation is to be homogeneous in units? Please show all of your work.arrow_forwardA high-impulse universal testing machine is being used to determine the Young's Modulus of a rectangular solid specimen (l = 20 cm, t = 1.5 cm, w = 2 cm). The machine produces 35,000 Ns that causes the impact force of compression resulted to a 1 mm deformation in the length of the specimen in 0.05 s. Determine the Young's modulus of the specimen expressed in MPa. Round off your answer to the nearest whole numberarrow_forward
