M° = 2.5 kg/sec
For saturated steam tables
at p₁ = 125Kpa
hg = h₁ = 2685.2 KJ/kg
SQ = s₁ = 7.2847 KJ/kg-k
for isotopic compression
S₁ = S₂ = 7.2847 KJ/kg-k
at 700Kpa steam with S = 7.2847
h₂ 3051.3 KJ/kg
Compressor efficiency
h =  0.78
0.78 = h₂ - h₁/h₂-h₁
0.78 = h₂-h₁ → 0.78 = 3051.3 - 2685.2/h₂ - 2685.2
h₂ = 3154.6KJ/kg
at 700Kpa with 3154.6 KJ/kg
enthalpy gives
entropy S₂ = 7.4586 KJ/kg-k
Work = m(h₂ - h₁) = 2.5(3154.6 - 2685.2
W = 1173.5KW

A proton is confined in an infinite square well of width 10 fm. (The nuclear potential that binds protons and neutrons in the nu
kvasek [131]

Answer:

First Question

    E   =   1.065*10^{-12} \  J

Second  Question

   The  wavelength is for an X-ray  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  width of the wall is  w =  10\ fm =  10*10^{-15 }\ m

     The  first excited state is  n_1  =  2

     The  ground state is   n_0 = 1

Gnerally the  energy (in MeV) of the photon emitted when the proton undergoes a transition is mathematically represented as

          E   =   \frac{h^2 }{ 8 * m  *  l^2 [ n_1^2 - n_0 ^2 ] }

Here  h is the Planck's constant with value  h =  6.62607015 * 10^{-34} J \cdot s

         m is the mass of proton with value m  = 1.67 * 10^{-27} \   kg

So    

          E  =   \frac{( 6.626*10^{-34})^2 }{ 8 * (1.67 *10^{-27})  *  (10 *10^{-15})^2 [ 2^2 - 1 ^2 ] }

=>        E   =   1.065*10^{-12} \  J

Generally the energy of the photon emitted is also mathematically represented as

             E  =  \frac{h * c }{ \lambda }

=>          \lambda  =  \frac{h * c }{E }

=>          \lambda  =  \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34} * 3.0 *10^{8} }{ 1.065 *10^{-15 } }

=>         \lambda  =  1.87*10^{-10} \  m

Generally the range of wavelength of X-ray is  10^{-8} \to  1)^{-12}

So this wavelength is for an X-ray.

The tub of a washer goes into its spin-dry cycle, starting from rest and reaching an angular speed of 2.0 rev/s in 10.0 s. At th
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

22 revolutions

Explanation:

2 rev/s = 2*(2π rad/rev) = 12.57 rad/s

The angular acceleration when it starting

\alpha_a = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = \frac{12.57}{10} = 1.257 rad/s^2

The angular acceleration when it stopping:

\alpha_o = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = \frac{-12.57}{12} = -1.05 rad/s^2

The angular distance it covers when starting from rest:

\omega^2 - 0^2 = 2\alpha_a\theta_a

\theta_a = \frac{\omega^2}{2\alpha_a} = \frac{12.57^2}{2*1.257} = 62.8 rad

The angular distance it covers when coming to complete stop:

0 - \omega^2 = 2\alpha_o\theta_o

\theta_o = \frac{-\omega^2}{2\alpha_o} = \frac{-12.57^2}{2*(-1.05)} = 75.4 rad

So the total angular distance it covers within 22 s is 62.8 + 75.4 = 138.23 rad or 138.23 / (2π) = 22 revolutions

A motorcycle and a police car are moving toward one another. The police car emits sound with a frequency of 523 Hz and has a spe
Firdavs [7]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Dopler's Law. Dopler describes the change in frequency of a wave in relation to that of an observer who is in motion relative to the Source of the Wave.

It can be described as

f = \frac{c\pm v_r}{c\pm v_s}f_0

c = Propagation speed of waves in the medium

v_r= Speed of the receiver relative to the medium

v_s= Speed of the source relative to the medium

f_0 =Frequency emited by the source

The sign depends on whether the receiver or the source approach or move away from each other.

Our values are given by,

v_s = 32.2m/s \rightarrow Velocity of car

v_r = 14.8 m/s \rightarrow velocity of motor

c = 343m/s \rightarrow Velocity of sound

f_0 = 523Hz \rightarrowFrequency emited by the source

Replacing we have that

f = \frac{c + v_r}{c - v_s}f_0

f = \frac{343 + 14.8}{343 - 32}(523)

f = 601.7Hz

Therefore the frequency that hear the motorcyclist is 601.7Hz
