The number of significant digits of any measurement is determined by the instrument used for such measurement. For example, in this case, we have the height of a small child being measured. We can use a simple ruler for this, and we see that a ruler has ten divisions for 1 cm. This means that the ruler cannot measure beyond the size of 0.1 cm or 1 mm. Hence, when we report the height of the small child, we report it to one significant digit after the decimal place. As an example, if we measure a child's height to be 90 full cm divisions and 8 smaller divisions, we report it as 90.8 cm but not 90.83 or 90.86 cm.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
Steam Mass rate, ms = 1.5 kg/min
= 1.5 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec
= 0.025 kg/s
Air Mass rate, ma = 100 kg/min
= 100 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec
= 1.67 kg/s
A.
Extracting the specific enthalpy and temperature values from property table of “Saturated water – Pressure table” which corresponds to temperature at 0.07 MPa.
xf, quality = 0.9.
Tsat = 89.9°C
hf = 376.57 kJ/kg
hfg = 2283.38 kJ/kg
Using the equation for specific enthalpy,
hi = hf + (hfg × xf)
= 376.57 + (2283.38 × 0.9)
= 2431.552 kJ/kg
The specific enthalpy of the outlet, h2 = hf
= 376.57 kJ/kg
B.
Rate of enthalpy (heat exchange), Q = mass rate, ms × change in specific enthalpy
= ms × (hi - h2)
= 0.025 × (2431.552 - 376.57)
= 0.025 × 2055.042
= 51.37455 kW
= 51.38 kW.
Answer:
yes, the potential difference across the terminals of the battery can be equal to its emf.
Explanation:
when the current in the battery is zero, meaning the current though, and hence the potential drop across the internal resistance is zero. This only happens when there is no load placed on the battery.
Answer:
The direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.
Explanation:
Given;
direction of the magnetic field to be due north
Applying right hand rule which states that: to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive moving charge point the thumb of the right hand in the direction of velocity v, the fingers in the direction of magnetic field B, and a perpendicular to the palm points in the direction of magnetic force.
Since the magnetic force must be perpendicular to the magnetic field, and direction of the magnetic field is due north, then the magnetic force must be due East.
Therefore, the direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.
