An electric appliance is connected by wires to a 240-volt source of voltage. If the combined resistance of the appliance and wir

es is 12 ohms, how much current is flowing through the circuit?

Voltage=V=240V
Resistance=R=12ohm
Current be I

Apply ohms law

V=IR
240=12I
I=240/12
I=20A

A hiker travels south along a straight line path for 1.5 hours with an average velocity of 0.75 km/hr, then travels south for 2.

ANTONII [103]

Distance travelled in south direction= 1.5hr*0.75km/hr= 1.125km
Distance travlled in north direction= 0.90*2.5=2.25
Net displacement = 2.25-1.125= 1.125 to the north

Air with a mass flow rate of 2.3 kg/s enters a horizontal nozzle operating at steady state at 450K, 350kPa, and a velocity of 3

MissTica

Answer:

(a) $A_1=0.283m^2$

(b) $Q=-105.5kW$ : From the air to the surroundings.

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, we can compute the area at the entrance by firstly computing the inlet volumetric flow:

$V_1=\frac{mRT_1}{P_1M}= \frac{2.3\frac{kg}{s} *8.314\frac{kPa*m^3}{kmol* K}*450K}{350kPa*28.97\frac{kg}{kmol} } =0.849\frac{m^3}{s}$

Then, with the velocity, we compute the area:

$A_1=\frac{V_1}{v_1}=\frac{0.849\frac{m^3}{s} }{3\frac{m}{s} } =0.283m^2$

(b) In this case, via the following energy balance for the nozzle:

$Q-W=H_2-H_1+\frac{1}{2} mV_2^2-\frac{1}{2} mV_1^2$

We can easily compute the change in the enthalpy by using the given Cp and neglecting the work (no done work):

$\Delta H=H_2-H_1=mCp\Delta T=2.3kg/s*1.011\frac{kJ}{kg*K}*(300K-450K)\\ \\\Delta H=-348.795kW$

Finally, the heat turns out:

$Q=-348.795kW+\frac{1}{2}*2.3\frac{kg}{s}*[(460\frac{m}{s})^2 -(3\frac{m}{s})^2 ]\\\\Q=-348.795kW+243329.65W*\frac{1kW}{1000W}\\ \\Q=-105.5kW$

Such sign, means the heat is being transferred from the air to the surroundings.

Regards.
