How much water is lost in a day?
The answer to this question is Dependent on many variables. This depends on where the water is getting lost, how fast it is getting lost, etc...
How much water in 6 PVC pipe that is 1.63 miles long?
For the volume of pipes, you can use the formula for a cylinder.
How much water can a shaduf hold?
I can hold 20 liters of water.
How much water is 300 grams of water?
300 grams of water is 300 ml , or 10.582 ounces
How much can A bucket of water that has 9 liters of water hold?
9 liters
Why do water pipes burst during earthquakes?
Water pipes can burst during earthquakes due to the ground shaking, which can cause the pipes to move and become misaligned or break from the stress. The shaking can also cause the surrounding soil to shift, putting pressure on the pipes and potentially causing them to rupture. Additionally, old or corroded pipes are more vulnerable to bursting during earthquakes.
What happens if to much water is in a cell?
Too much water inside a cell will cause it to burst.
Why do pipes burst at an extremely low temperature?
When water freezes it expands, as opposed to practically all other liquids. (For this reason ice fortunately forms on the TOP of ponds and lakes.) The expansion causes pressure to build up that could eventually burst the pipe. However, most water pipes burst because, as the ice builds up in the direction of the pipe, the water pressure continues to build up downstream from the growing volume of ice, that is between the ice and the faucet's. (Water pressure does not appreciably increase upstream as there is much more water on this side.) This enormous buildup of pressure can eventually cause the strongest of pipes to burst. It is a good idea to leave a faucet dripping if the pipe leading to it is in danger of freezing. Not only does this significantly reduce the chance of the water freezing in the pipe, but it keeps the water pressure from building up to dangerous levels that can cause bursting.
What are the disadvantages of expansion?
Well,the well known negative affects of anamolous expansion are:- 1.Due to anamolous expansion the pipes usually burst in winter,because the expansion of water in winter is much more than is much more than the expansion of pipes. to avoid bursting the pipes are covered wid insulating material.
If Too much water moved into a cell?
The water vacuole would burst
Is yellow brass safe for water pipes?
It is safe, but it will rot out. It is used to prevent electrolysis, but that is pretty much it nowadays. Pex is more commonly used for water pipes.
What would happen to red blood cells in the body if blood lost through injury were replaced with pure water?
If blood lost through injury were replaced with pure water, the red blood cells would swell and eventually burst due to osmotic imbalance. The lack of electrolytes and proteins in pure water would disrupt the osmotic balance within the cells, causing them to take in too much water and ultimately lyse. This would result in decreased oxygen-carrying capacity and could be life-threatening.
Are no lead water pipes less quality than pipes containing lead?
Lead was used for water pipes because it is cheaper, more malleable, and more flexible, and can be welded together easily. But it should not be used for water pipes of any kind because of the risk of water contamination. Metals such as copper are more expensive but superior in performance, and modern PVC is much lighter and easier to use for drainage pipes, and for pipes not carrying great pressure.
why do u get hiccups from drinking water to fast?
your pipes can't handle so much water at a time
What might happen if too much water moved into a cell?
If too much water moves into a cell, it could cause the cell to swell and possibly burst. This is known as lysis and can ultimately lead to cell damage or death.
Can wiring and plumbing be located in the same chase?
No most certainly not, firstly, if laying copper water pipes and then you lay wiring next to it, it doesnt matter how much of insulation there is it will cause electrolosis. And weaken the pipe causing it to burst therefore affecting the electrical wiring and water and electricity do not go well together. Secondly chasing galvanised pipe into a wall is definitely not recommended because when the galvanised pipe "sweats" it will start to rust as the moisture just sits in the wall also causing the pipe to burst and affecting the electrical wiring. There must be a minimum 200mm between the chasing for electrical wiring and plumbing pipes.
What happens when to much water moves into a cell?
When too much water moves into a cell, it can cause the cell to swell and potentially burst. This process is known as lysis and can be harmful to the cell's structure and function. Cells regulate their water content through osmosis to maintain a balance and prevent lysis.
