Answer:

The work flow required by the compressor = 100.67Kj/kg

Explanation:

The solution to this question is obtained from the energy balance where the initial and final specific internal energies and enthalpies are taken from A-17 table from the given temperatures using interpolation .

The work flow can be determined using the equation:

M1h1 + W = Mh2

U1 + P1alph1 + ◇U + Workflow = U2 + P2alpha2

Workflow = P2alpha2 - P1alpha1

Workflow = (h2 -U2) - (h1 - U1)

Workflow = ( 684.344 - 491.153) - ( 322.483 - 229.964)

Workflow = ( 193.191 - 92.519)Kj/kg

Workflow = 100.672Kj/kg

A hockey puck of mass m traveling along the x axis at 4.5 m/s hits another identical hockey puck at rest. If after the collision
TEA [102]

Answer:

D) No, since kinetic energy is not conserved.

Explanation:

Since momentum is always conserved in all collision

so in Y direction we can say

0 = m(3.5 sin30) - mv_y

v_y = 1.75 m/s

Now similarly in X direction we will have

m(4.5) = m(3.5 cos30 ) + mv_x

v_x = 1.47 m/s

now final kinetic energy of both puck after collision is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}m(3.5^2) + \frac{1}{2}m(1.75^2 + 1.47^2)

KE_f = 8.73 m

initial kinetic energy of both pucks is given as

KE_i = \frac{1}{2}m(4.5^2) + 0

KE_i = 10.125 m

since KE is decreased here so it must be inelastic collision

D) No, since kinetic energy is not conserved.

As a tree respires, it takes in carbon dioxide, CO2, and water vapor, H2O, from the air while also releasing oxygen, O2. Does th
kifflom [539]

Answer:

It would gain weight

Explanation:

As water only releasing O2 molecules, but intake CO2 and H2O, the combination of molecular mass of CO2 and H2O must be larger than O2 itself. So the overall result is the tree gaining weight at a faster rate that losing weight. Therefore, it would gain more weight as it respires.

A construction worker pushes a cement block with a 750 N force for 10 minutes without the cement block moving. How much work did
lutik1710 [3]
The work done by a system on a different body is equal to the product of the force exerted and the distance that the body has move in parallel to the force exerted. In this item, we have to determine first the distance and multiply it with the given force equal to 750N.

A spring stretches 0.220 m when a 0.400 kg-mass is hung from it. What is its spring constant? (Mass is not a force )
Fantom [35]
We want to know the amount of force that stretches the spring 0.22 m.
That force is the WEIGHT of the mass hung from it.
The weight of the mass is (mass) times (gravity).
To do that calculation, we need to know the value of gravity, but
gravity has different values on every planet.  I shall assume that
this whole springy question is taking place on Earth, so that the
value of gravity is 9.8 m/s² .

The weight of the mass is (0.4 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 3.92 Newtons.

The spring constant is

(force/length of the stretch)

= (3.92 Newtons) / (0.22 meters)

= (3.92 / 0.22) Newtons/meter

= 17.82 N/m .
