Model tests are to be performed to study the flow through a large check valve having an inlet diameter of 2 feet and a volume flowrate Qp of 30 cfs. The working fluid in the model is water at the same temperature as that in the prototype. Complete geometric similitude exists between the model and the prototype. The model inlet is 3 inches. Determine the required volume flowrate Qm in the model. (HINT: Think carefully about which common-group is relevant for flow through a valve.)

Which would sell for the greatest price : If a corporation were to choose between issuing a debenture, a mortgage bond, or a subordinated debenture, everything else equal (such as coupon rate, maturity, etc.) which would sell for the greatest price?
Explain over-production can have negative effects : Many power plants produce energy by burning carbon-based fuels, which also produces carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, so over-production can have negative effects on the environment.
Determine required width and volume flowrate of the model : The spillway for a dam is 20 m wide and is designed to carry 125 m3/s at flood stage. A 1:15 ratio model is constructed to study the flow characteristics through the spillway. The effects of surface tension and viscosity can be neglected.
The direct write-off method of accounting for uncollectibles : Write-off method does not use an allowance for uncollectible accounts and thus overstates assets on the balance sheet.
