Answer:

Compare the various physical properties of the substance.

Explanation:

One way is to compare the various physical properties of the substance. Let's take a look at those:

Identify the physical identity of each substance. That is, it the substance solid, or powder, or granulated (in small granules)

Next, the color of the substance will also help as a physical property. For example, is the substance bright, shiny, dull in color, etc.

Another property of the test can be the electrical conductance. For instance, does the substance conduct electricity or not.

Finally, test if the substance dissolves in a solvent, say water in this case. If it dissolves, it is likely to be a soluble salt. If not, then it is likely to be an insoluble salt.

Write one example situation of Newton's Third Law involving mass that are the same.

puteri [66]

Answer:

Examples of Newton's third law of motion are ubiquitous in everyday life. For example, when you jump, your legs apply a force to the ground, and the ground applies and equal and opposite reaction force that propels you into the air. Engineers apply Newton's third law when designing rockets and other projectile devices.

You place a point charge q = -4.00 nC a distance of 9.00 cm from an infinitely long, thin wire that has linear charge density 3.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

quantity of point charge, $q=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C$

radial distance from the linear charge, $r=0.09\ m$

linear charge density, $\lambda=3\times 10^{-9}\ C.m^{-1}$

We know that the electric field by the linear charge is given as:

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi.\epsilon_0.r}$

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 9\times 10^9\times \frac{3\times10^{-9}}{0.09}$

$E=150\ N.C^{-1}$

Now the force on the given charge can be given as:

$F=E.q$

$F=150\times 4\times 10^{-9}$

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Explain what happens to the pitch of a cell phone ring when the amplitude of a sound wave increases. Justify your reasoning usin

dalvyx [7]

Nothing happens to the pitch of a cell phone ring when the amplitude
of a sound wave increases.

Pitch and amplitude are both characteristics of a wave, but they're not
connected, and they don't influence each other.

Abstract

The cement production process is energy intensive both in terms of the thermal energy (firing the kiln, drying and De carbonation) and electrical energy for driving the numerous drives within the process line. The average specific power consumption of the case study plant was 111 kWh/ton of cement with an average peak demand of 9.7 MW. The high cost of electric power at 0.14 USD/kWh results in very high cost of production that significantly lowers the company's profit margin and limits its competitive advantage. The generation of electrical power from waste heat recovery would reduce the electricity power bill through partially substituting the power procured from the national grid. This research evaluated the potential that the plant has for generating electrical power from the hot waste gases vented into the atmosphere and it was found that the plant has the potential to generate 3.4 MWh of electrical power. This results to a net potential to generate 2.89 MWh of electrical power after factoring in the auxiliary power consumption by Waste heat recovery plant system at 15%. This ultimately gave a reduction of 33% in the electricity power bill of the case study plant. The paper recommends the installation of a steam rankine cycle for the power generating plant. In this work the authors designed the steam boilers for the waste heat recovery plant for conversion of thermal energy to electrical energy, selected a commercial steam turbine and evaluated its economic feasibility and established that the designed plant would have a simple payback period of 2.7 years.

Introduction

The cement manufacturing process is an energy intensive industry, both in terms of thermal and electrical energy. The cost of energy keeps on fluctuating and this negatively impact on the manufacturing cost and eventually lowers the competitiveness and profitability of the cement industry. The energy costs in a cement industry account for about 26% of the total manufacturing cost of cement which is in the form of electrical energy accounting for 25% of the input energy and 75% is thermal energy 1. Furthermore, the sources of thermal energy utilized in the cement industry are mostly nonrenewable and this necessitates deep consideration of energy conservation to guarantee sustainability.

The case study plant suffers financial loss as a result of higher per unit cost of power from the grid and the poor reliability of the supply. The poor reliability of supply negatively affects the kiln operations (the heart of operations) as a result of the sensitivity of the process to power quality resulting in high set up costs. This significantly raises the cost of production for the case study plant and eventually results in the loss of her competitive advantage.

The generation of Power from the cement kiln Waste Heat gases is an energy saving opportunity and it entails the recovery of the heat energy contained in the waste gases that are emitted into the atmosphere from the cement kiln. According to 2, the generation of Power from kiln Waste Heat Recovery is about conversion of the waste heat from the clinkering process into useful electrical energy. Cogeneration of power is achieved by utilizing this waste heat streams from the preheater and the cooler, passing the waste gases through boilers, which in turn generate steam which is used to turn/run turbines to generate electricity

What is the difference between a solar cell and a solar panel

dexar [7]

Solar cells and solar panels are both integral, and closely related, parts of a solar energy system. When reading about solar energy systems, it may seem as if these titles are almost interchangeable. Writers refer to them both when discussing energy production and output, and often do so without explanation of how these parts work. However, each plays a distinct role. Solar cells contain all the parts necessary to convert sunlight to electricity. Solar panels combine and direct all of that energy output.
