Time = distance/speed

Time = 8•10^14m / 3•10^8m/s

Time = about 2.7•10^6 seconds.
That's about 31 Earth days.

If the frequencies of two component waves are 24 Hz and 20 Hz, they should produce _______ beats per second.
horrorfan [7]
This can be answered using the beat frequency formula, which is simply the difference between 2 frequencies.

Let: <span>fᵇ = beat frequency
</span>f₁ = first frequency
f₂ = second frequency

fᵇ = |f₁ - f₂|

substituting the values:
fᵇ = |24Hz - 20Hz|
fᵇ = 4Hz

The unit Hz also means beats per second, therefore:
<span>fᵇ = 4 beats per second
</span>
Therefore, the answer is C. 4

Air as an ideal gas enters a diffuser operating at steady state at 5 bar, 280 K with a velocity of 510 m/s. The exit velocity is
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculating the exit temperature for K = 1.4

The value of c_p is determined via the expression:

c_p = \frac{KR}{K_1}

where ;

R = universal gas constant = \frac{8.314 \ J}{28.97 \ kg.K}

k = constant = 1.4

c_p = \frac{1.4(\frac{8.314}{28.97} )}{1.4 -1}

c_p= 1.004 \ kJ/kg.K

The derived expression from mass and energy rate balances reduce for the isothermal process of ideal gas is :

0=(h_1-h_2)+\frac{(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2}     ------ equation(1)

we can rewrite the above equation as :

0 = c_p(T_1-T_2)+ \frac{(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2}

T_2 =T_1+ \frac{(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2 c_p}

where:

T_1  = 280 K \\ \\ v_1 = 510 m/s \\ \\ v_2 = 120 m/s \\ \\c_p = 1.0004 \ kJ/kg.K

T_2= 280+\frac{((510)^2-(120)^2)}{2(1.004)} *\frac{1}{10^3}

T_2 = 402.36 \ K

Thus, the exit temperature = 402.36 K

The exit pressure is determined by using the relation:\frac{T_2}{T_1} = (\frac{P_2}{P_1})^\frac{k}{k-1}

P_2=P_1(\frac{T_2}{T_1})^\frac{k}{k-1}

P_2 = 5 (\frac{402.36}{280} )^\frac{1.4}{1.4-1}

P_2 = 17.79 \ bar

Therefore, the exit pressure is 17.79 bar

For this case we have that by definition, the kinetic energy is given by the following formula:

k= \frac {1} {2} * m * v ^ 2

Where:

m: It is the mass

v: It is the velocity

According to the data we have to:

m = 100 \ kg\\v = 9 \frac {m} {s}

Substituting the values we have:

k = \frac {1} {2} * (100) * (9) ^ 2\\k = \frac {1} {2} * (100) * 81\\k = 50 * 81\\k = 4050

finally, the kinetic energy is 4050 \ J
