What determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge?

The time constant determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the time constant of the capacitor.

<h3>What is time constant?</h3>
  • The time it takes for a capacitor to discharge 36.8% of its charge in a discharging circuit or charge up to 63.2% of its maximum capacity in a charging circuit, given that it has no initial charge, is the time constant of a resistor-capacitor series combination.
  • The circuit's reaction to a step-up (or constant) voltage input is likewise determined by the time constant.
  • As a result, the time constant determines the circuit's cutoff frequency.

Thus, we can conclude that, the time constant determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge.

Steam flows steadily through an adiabatic turbine. The inlet conditions of the steam are 4 MPa, 500◦C, and 80 m/s, and the exit
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

a) ΔEC=-23.4kW

b)W=12106.2kW

c)A=0.01297m^2

Explanation:

A)

The kinetic energy is defined as:

\frac{m*vel^2}{2} (vel is the velocity, to differentiate with v, specific volume).

The kinetic energy change will be: Δ (\frac{mvel^2}{2})=\frac{m*vel_2^2}{2}-\frac{m*vel_1^2}{2}

Δ (\frac{mvel^2}{2})=\frac{m}{2}*(vel_2^2-vel_1^2)

Where 1 and 2 subscripts mean initial and final state respectively.

Δ(\frac{mvel^2}{2})=\frac{12\frac{kg}{s}}{2}*(50^2-80^2)\frac{m^2}{s^2}=-23400W=-23.4kW

This amount is negative because the steam is losing that energy.

B)

Consider the energy balance, with a neglective height difference: The energy that enters to the turbine (which is in the steam) is the same that goes out (which is in the steam and in the work done).

H_1+\frac{m*vel_1^2}{2}=H_2+\frac{m*vel_2^2}{2}+W\\W=m*(h_1-h_2)+\frac{m}{2} *(vel_1^2-vel_2^2)

We already know the last quantity: \frac{m}{2} *(vel_1^2-vel_2^2)=-Δ (\frac{mvel^2}{2})=23400W

For the steam enthalpies, review the steam tables (I attach the ones that I used); according to that, h_1=h(T=500C,P=4MPa)=3445.3\frac{kJ}{kg}

The exit state is a liquid-vapor mixture, so its enthalpy is:

h_2=h_f+xh_{fg}=289.23+0.92*2366.1=2483.4\frac{kJ}{kg}

Finally, the work can be obtained:

W=12\frac{kg}{s}*(3445.3-2438.4)\frac{kJ}{kg} +23.400kW)=12106.2kW

C) For the area, consider the equation of mass flow:

m=p*vel*A where p is the density, and A the area. The density is the inverse of the specific volume, so m=\frac{vel*A}{v}

The specific volume of the inlet steam can be read also from the steam tables, and its value is: 0.08643\frac{m^3}{kg}, so:

A=\frac{m*v}{vel}=\frac{12\frac{kg}{s}*0.08643\frac{m^3}{kg}}{80\frac{m}{s}}=0.01297m^2

7. Which best describes the energy change th pushes a large rock down a hill?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Gravitational Energy is the energy of position or place. A rock resting at the top of a hill contains gravitational Potential energy. Hydropower, such as water in a reservoir behind a dam, is an example of gravitational potential energy.

jonny [76]

Answer:Reducing mass i.e. water

Explanation:

Frequency For given mass in glass is given by

f=\frac{1}{2\pi }\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where k =stiffness of the glass

m=mass of water in glass

from the above expression we can see that if mass is inversely Proportional to frequency

thus reducing mass we can increase frequency
