The acceleration due to gravity serves as the centripetal acceleration of the objects that orbits the Earth. The centripetal acceleration due to gravity is calculated through the equation,

    a = v²/r

where v is the speed and r is the radius. Substituting the known values to the equation,

   9.8 m/s² = (420 m/s)² / r

The value of r from the equation is 18000 m or equal to 18 km.

<em>Answer: 18 km</em>

Un móvil se encuentra en la posición inicial x0 = 22 m, y se mueve con velocidad 5 m/s. Calcula la posición en la que se encuent
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

La posición en la que se encuentra el móvil en el instante t = 30 s es 172 m.

Explanation:

El movimiento rectilíneo uniforme (MRU) es el movimiento que describe un cuerpo o partícula a través de una línea recta a velocidad constante.

La distancia recorrida,  x , por un móvil que tiene un MRU con un velocidad  v  durante el intervalo de tiempo  t  es:

x= x0 + v*t

donde x0 es la posición inicial.

En este caso:

  • x0= 22 m
  • v= 5 m/s
  • t= 30 s

Reemplazando:

x= 22 m + 5 m/s* 30 s

Resolviendo:

x= 22 m + 150 m

x= 172 m

<u><em>La posición en la que se encuentra el móvil en el instante t = 30 s es 172 m.</em></u>

A ball starts at rest and rolls down an inclined plane. The ball reaches 7.5 m/s in 3 seconds. What is the acceleration?
just olya [345]

Answer:

a=2.5\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Motion With Constant Acceleration </u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes uniformly over time.

The equation that describes the change of velocities is:

v_f=v_o+at

Where:

a   = acceleration

vo = initial speed

vf  = final speed

t    = time

Solving the equation for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

The ball starts at rest (vo=0) and rolls down an inclined plane that makes it reach a speed of vf=7.5 m/s in t=3 seconds.

The acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{7.5-0}{3}

\boxed{a=2.5\ m/s^2}

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

A sample of gas has a volume of 215 cm3 at 23.5 °c and 84.6 kpa. what volume (cm3 will the gas occupy at stp
Dafna11 [192]
The answer is 165.3 cm³.

P1 * V1 / T1 = P2 * V2 / T2

The initial sample:
P1 = 84.6 kPa
V1 = 215 cm³
T1 = 23.5°C = 23.5 + 273 K = 296.5 K

At STP:
P2 = 101.3 kPa
V2 = ?
T2 = 273 K

Therefore:
84.6 * 215 / 296.5 = 101.3 * V2 / 273
61.34 = 101.3 * V2 / 273
V2 = 61.34 * 273 / 101.3
V2 = 165.3 cm³
