Answer:

work=281.4KJ/kg

Power=4Kw

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve follow the steps below!

1. Find the density of the air at the entrance using the equation for ideal gases

density=\frac{P}{RT}

where

P=pressure=120kPa

T=20C=293k

R= 0.287 kJ/(kg*K)= gas constant ideal for air

density=\frac{120}{(0.287)(293)}=1.43kg/m^3

2.find the mass flow by finding the product between the flow rate and the density

m=(density)(flow rate)

flow rate=10L/s=0.01m^3/s

m=(1.43kg/m^3)(0.01m^3/s)=0.0143kg/s

3. Please use the equation the first law of thermodynamics that states that the energy that enters is the same as the one that must come out, we infer the following equation, note = remember that power is the product of work and mass flow

Work

w=Cp(T1-T2)

Where

Cp= specific heat for air=1.005KJ/kgK

w=work

T1=inlet temperature=20C

T2=outlet temperature=300C

w=1.005(300-20)=281.4KJ/kg

Power

W=mw

W=(0.0143)(281.4KJ/kg)=4Kw

(a) If 15 kW of power from a heat reservoir at 500 K is input into a heat engine with an efficiency of 37%, what is the power ou
julsineya [31]

Answer:

(A) Power output will be 5.55 KW (b) lower temperature will be 315 K

Explanation:

We have given efficiency of heat engine \eta =37% = 0.37

Input power = 15 KW

Temperature of heat reservoir T_H=500K

(A) We know that \eta =\frac{output}{input}

So  [text]0.37=\frac{output}{15}[text]

Output = 5.55 KW

(B) We also know that [text]\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}0.37=\frac{output}{15}[text], here T_L  is lower temperature and T_H is higher temperature

So 0.37=1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

0.37=1-\frac{T_L}{500}

T_L=315K

A woodcutter wishes to cause the tree trunk to fall uphill, even though the trunk is leaning downhill. With the aid of the winch
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be "400.4 N". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass of truck,

m = 600 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

On equating torques at the point O,

⇒  T\times Cos(10+5)\times (1.3+4)=mg\times Sin(5)\times 4

So that,

On putting the values, we get

⇒  T\times Cos(15^{\circ})\times 5.3=600\times 9.8\times Sin(5^{\circ})\times 4

⇒                             T=400.4 \ N

Q1. In electronic circuits it is not unusual to encounter currents in the microampere range. Assume a 35 μA current, due to the
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

2.9*10^14 electrons

Explanation:

An Ampere is the flow of one Coulomb per second, so 35 μA = is 35*10^-6 C per second.

An electron has a charge of 1.6*10^-19 C.

35*10^-6 / 1.6*10^-19 = 2.9*10^14 electrons

So, with a current o 35 μA you have an aevrage of 2.9*10^14 electrons flowing past a fixed reference cross section perpendicular to the direction of flow.

A hydraulic cylinder is to be used to move a workpiece in a manufacturing operation through a distance of 50 mm in 10 s. A force
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The answer to this question is 1273885.3 ∅

Explanation:

<em>The first step is to determine the required  hydraulic flow rate liquid if working pressure and  if a cylinder with a piston diameter of 100 mm is available.</em>

<em>Given that,</em>

<em>The distance = 50mm</em>

<em>The time t =10 seconds</em>

<em>The force F = 10kN</em>

<em>The piston diameter is = 100mm</em>

<em>The pressure = F/A</em>

<em> 10 * 10^3/Δ/Δ </em>

<em> P = 1273885.3503 pa</em>

<em>Then</em>

<em>Power = work/time  = Force * distance /time</em>

<em> = 10 * 1000 * 0.050/10</em>

<em>which is  =50 watt</em>

<em>Power =∅ΔP</em>

<em>50 = 1273885.3 ∅</em>
