Chapter 10, Problem 1RQ
Explain the difference between inching and jogging.
Expert Solution & Answer

To determine
The difference between inching and jogging.
Explanation of Solution
Jogging:
Jogging is to start a motor with short nudges of power at full voltage. Jogging should not exceed 5 times in a minute and if frequently done, the starter of the motor will be de-rated.
Inching:
Inching is similar to jogging but at reduced voltage. Inching is to start a motor with short nudges of power at reduced voltage.

The sketch below gives some details of the human heart at rest. What is the total power
requirement (work/time) for an artificial heart pump if we use a safety factor of 5 to allow for
inefficiencies, the need to operate the heart under stress, etc.? Assume blood has the
properties of water.

4- A horizontal Venturi meter is used to measure the flow rate of water through the piping system
of 20 cm I.D, where the diameter of throat in the meter is d₂ = 10 cm. The pressure at inlet is
17.658 N/cm2 gauge and the vacuum pressure of 35 cm Hg at throat. Find the discharge of water.
Take Cd = 0.98.
