Question:
For a geothermal well that has been running for some time, pressure at the bottom of the well is pw ≅ 15MPa at a depth of 2 km. Assume the fluid is water at 280 ◦C. Estimate the location of the flash horizon. (You may neglect the contribution to the pressure from the weight of the vapor above the flash horizon.)
Step by Step Answer:
The density and vapor pressure of water at 280 C are 750 kgm 3 and p vap 642 ...View the full answer

As we know, to break a coconut we have to apply 400 pounds of pressure to it. In pounds = 400psi In newton = 1779.29N Starting from the first person he will try to break the coconut with his hands. As we know humans can exert a force 292 newtons by their hands. So force by hand is approximately = 300 N Then the second and third one also try to break it by hand but they fail too.
