Peak demand can vary greatly based on the number of simultaneous water uses, the flow rates of individual water fixtures, and the length of time fixtures operate. 5 gpm (two fixtures running simultaneously at 2.5 gpm) is a good estimate of peak demand, for the typical household. Water wells that reliably yield 5 gpm should be able to meet peak and daily needs for most residences. Wells yielding less than 5 gpm, however, are sometimes the only water source available.
Lifeboat may refer to: Lifeboat (shipboard), a small craft aboard a ship to allow for emergency escape. Lifeboat (rescue), a boat designed for sea rescues. Airborne lifeboat, an air-dropped boat used to save downed airmen.
On large ships the lifeboats are rigid (non inflatable). For the most part private yachts will have inflatable lifeboats. Then it depends on the size but 4-8 persons would be common. No modern lifeboat is that small nor wooden on a cruise ship. you would indeed have inflatable lifeboats on fishing boats. A cruise ship life may have a few inflatable lifeboats for a small emergency . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifeboat_%2... jon_mac_usa_007 Â· 1 year ago.
