  1. In order to achieve the desired resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with the 20 Ohms resistors.
  2. In order to get a 35 Ohms resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with two 20 Ohms resistors that are connected in parallel.

<h3>How to achieve the desired resistance under these circumstances?</h3>

In order to achieve the desired resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with the 20 Ohms resistors.

Mathematically, the total equivalence resistance of two resistors that are connected in parallel is given by:

1/Rt = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂

1/Rt = 1/50 + 1/50

1/Rt = 2/50

1/Rt = 1/25

Rt = 25 Ohms.

Next, we would connect this 25 Ohms resistor in series with the 20 Ohms resistor:

R₃ = 20 + Rt

R₃ = 20 + 25

R₃ = 45 Ohms.

<h3>Part B.</h3>

In order to get a 35 Ohms resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with two 20 Ohms resistors that are connected in parallel.

1/Rt = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂

1/Rt = 1/50 + 1/50

1/Rt = 2/50

1/Rt = 1/25

Rt = 25 Ohms.

1/R't = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂

1/R't = 1/20 + 1/20

1/R't = 2/20

1/R't = 1/10

R't = 10 Ohms.

Next, we would connect the 25 Ohms resistor in series with the 10 Ohms resistor:

R₃ = 10 + Rt

R₃ = 10 + 25

R₃ = 35 Ohms.

Steam enters the condenser of a steam power plant at 20kPa and a quality of 95% with a mass flow rate of 20,000kg/h. It is to be
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The mass rate of the cooling water required is: 1'072988.5\frac{kg}{h}

Explanation:

First, write the energy balance for the condensator: The energy that enters to the equipment is the same that goes out from it; consider that there is no heat transfer to the surroundings and kinetic and potential energy changes are despreciable.

{m_{w}}*{h_{w}}^{in}+m_s{h_{s}}^{in}=m_w{h_{w}}^{out}+m_s{h_{s}}^{out}

Where w refers to the cooling water and s to the steam flow. Reorganizing,

m_w({h_{w}}^{out}-{h_{w}}^{in})=m_s({h_{s}}^{in}-{h_{s}}^{out})\\m_w=\frac{m_s({h_{s}}^{in}-{h_{s}}^{out})}{({h_{w}}^{out}-{h_{w}}^{in})}

Write the difference of enthalpy for water as Cp (Tout-Tin):

m_w=\frac{m_s({h_{s}}^{in}-{h_{s}}^{out})}{C_{pw}({T_{w}}^{out}-{T_{w}}^{in})}

This equation will let us to calculate the mass rate required. Now, let's get the enthalpy and Cp data. The enthalpies can be read from the steam tables (I attach the tables I used). According to that, {h_{s}}^{out}=251.40\frac{kJ}{kg} and {h_{s}}^{in} can be calculated as:

{h_{s}}^{in}={h_{f}}+x{h_{fg}}=251.40+0.95*2358.3=2491.8\frac{kJ}{kg}.

The Cp of water at 25ºC (which is the expected average temperature for water) is: 4.176 \frac{kJ}{kgK}. If the average temperature is actually different, it won't mean a considerable mistake. Also we know that {T_{w}}^{out}-{T_{w}}^{in}\leq 10, so let's work with the limit case, which is {T_{w}}^{out}-{T_{w}}^{in}=10 to calculate the minimum cooling water mass rate required (A higher one will give a lower temperature difference as a result). Finally, replace data:

m_w=\frac{20000\frac{kg}{h}(2491.8-251.40)\frac{kJ}{kg} }{4.176\frac{kJ}{kgK} (10C)}=1'072988.5\frac{kg}{h}

A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000 km. Sup
Tema [17]

Answer:

a) v = 19,149.6 m/s

b) f = 95%

c) t = 346.5min

Explanation:

First put all values in metric units:

15.8 min*\frac{60s}{1min}=948s

The equation of motion you need is:

v_f = a*t+v_0

where v_f is the final velocity, a is acceleration and t is time in hours.

Since the spaceship starts from 0 velocity:

v_f = a*t = 20.2*948 = 19,149.6 m/s

Next, you need to calculate the distances traveled on each interval, considering that both starting and final intervals travel the same distance because the acceleration and time are equal. For this part you need the next motion equation:

x=\frac{v_0+v_f}{2}t

solving for first and last interval:

Since the spaceship starts and finish with 0 velocity:

x=\frac{v}{2}t=\frac{19,149.6}{2}948=9,076,910.4m=9,076.9104km

Then the ship traveled 384,000-9,076.9104*2 = 361,846.1792km at constant speed, which means that it traveled:

f_{constant_speed} =\frac{ x_{constant_speed}}{x_total} =\frac{361,846.1792}{380,000} =0.95

Which in percentage is 95% of the trip.

to calculate total time you need to calculate the time used during constant speed:

t = \frac{361,846,179.2}{19,149.6} = 18,895.75s = 314min

That added to the other interval times:

t_{total} = t_1+t_2+t_3=15.8+314.93+15.8=346.5min

How can the atomic number of nitrogen be determined?
Doss [256]

Answer:

So... for the element of NITROGEN, you already know that the atomic number tells you the number of electrons. That means there are 7 electrons in a nitrogen atom. Looking at the picture, you can see there are two electrons in shell one and five in shell two.
