A residential subdivision encompasses 1100 acres with a housing density of four houses per acre. Assume that a high-value residence uses 800 g/day/house and has a fire flow requirement of 1000 gpm. If the water system has a daily peaking factor = 1.64 and an hourly peaking factor = 2.5, determine (a) the average daily demand of this subdivision and (b) the design-demand used to design the distribution system.

(a). The average daily demand of this subdivision is 2444.44 gallon/min.

(b). The design-demand used to design the distribution system is 2444.44 gallon/min.

Explanation:

Given that,

Area = 1100 acres

Number of house in 1 acres = 4

$\text{Number of house in 1100 acres} = 4\times1100$

$\text{Number of house in 1100 acres} = 4400$

Per house water demand = 800 g/day/house

(a). We need to calculate the average daily demand of this subdivision

Using formula for average daily demand

$\text{average daily demand}=house\times\text{Per house water demand}$

$\text{average daily demand}=4400\times800\ gallon/day$

$\text{average daily demand}=3520000\ gallon/day$

$\text{average daily demand}=\dfrac{3520000}{24\times60}\ gallon/min$

$\text{average daily demand}=2444.44\ gallon/min$

The average daily demand of this subdivision is 2444.44 gallon/min.

(b). We need to calculate the design-demand used to design the distribution system

Using formula for the design-demand

$\text{design demand}=(Q_{max})daily\times\text{fire flow}$

$\text{design demand}=1.64\times2444.4\times1000$

$\text{design demand}=4008816\ gallon/m$

Hence, (a). The average daily demand of this subdivision is 2444.44 gallon/min.

(b). The design-demand used to design the distribution system is 2444.44 gallon/min.

answer: you might love summer weather, but you don’t want it to feel like the sun is inside your car. but a hot car that just won’t seem to cool down might be a bigger of a problem than you think. your car relies on being at the right temperature.

Answer from: Quest

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

$f\alpha \frac{dp}{dt}$

⇒ $f= k \frac{dp}{dt}$

here k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

$f=\frac{dp}{dt}$

$f= \frac{d[mv]}{dt}$

$f= m\frac{dv}{dt} +v\frac{dm}{dt}$

$f=ma+v\frac{dm}{dt}$ [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
