Answer:

Water is essential to life because of four important properties: cohesion and adhesion, water's high specific heat, water's ability to expand when frozen, and its ability to dissolve a wide variety of substances.

As a new electrical technician, you are designing a large solenoid to produce a uniform 0.150-T magnetic field near the center o
Kamila [148]

Answer:

I = 21.94 A

Explanation:

Given that

B= 0.15 T

Number of turns N= 3100

Length L = 57 cm

Diameter ,d= 7 cm

We know that magnetic field in the solenoid given as

B=\dfrac{\mu_0IN}{L}

I=\dfrac{BL}{\mu_0N}

Now by putting the values

I=\dfrac{0.15\times 0.57}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 3100}

I = 21.94 A

Therefore current need to produce 0.15 T magnetic filed is 21.94 A.

g Warm water in a geothermal heating system enters the pipe of a radiator at 20 psia and 119oF with a flow rate of 235 cfm (ft3/
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Notice that the condenser section includes both the hot water and space heater and station (3) is specified as being in the Quality region. Assume that 50°C is a reasonable maximum hot water temperature for home usage, thus at a high pressure of 1.6 MPa, the maximum power available for hot water heating will occur when the refrigerant at station (3) reaches the saturated liquid state. (Quick Quiz: justify this statement). Assume also that the refrigerant at station (4) reaches a subcooled liquid temperature of 20°C while heating the air.

Using the conditions shown on the diagram and assuming that station (3) is at the saturated liquid state

a) On the P-h diagram provided below carefully plot the five processes of the heat pump together with the following constant temperature lines: 50°C (hot water), 13°C (ground loop), and -10°C (outside air temperature)

b) Using the R134a property tables determine the enthalpies at all five stations and verify and indicate their values on the P-h diagram.

c) Determine the mass flow rate of the refrigerant R134a. [0.0127 kg/s]

d) Determine the power absorbed by the hot water heater [2.0 kW] and that absorbed by the space heater [0.72 kW].

e) Determine the time taken for 100 liters of water at an initial temperature of 20°C to reach the required hot water temperature of 50°C [105 minutes].

f) Determine the Coefficient of Performance of the hot water heater [COPHW = 4.0] (defined as the heat absorbed by the hot water divided by the work done on the compressor)

g) Determine the Coefficient of Performance of the heat pump [COPHP = 5.4] (defined as the total heat rejected by the refrigerant in the hot water and space heaters divided by the work done on the compressor)

h) What changes would be required of the system parameters if no geothermal water loop was used, and the evaporator was required to absorb its heat from the outside air at -10°C. Discuss the advantages of the geothermal heat pump system over other means of space and water heating

Explain the difference between mass and weight for objects on earth and on the moon
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: Gravity causes a change in the mass of objects on earth and the moon.

Explanation:

Because of gravity, the weight of objects lessen, and decrease because of gravity. If you were to drop an object from earth from space, the object would have more mass. Hope that helps.

A 20-kg child is coasting at 3.3 m/s over flat ground in a 4.0-kg wagon. The child drops a 1.0-kg ball out the back of the wagon
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The final velocity is u_f = 3.44 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the child is  m_1 = 20 \  kg

    The initial  speed  of the child is  u_1 = 3.3 \  m/s

    The mass of the wagon is  m_w =  4.0 \ kg

    The  initial  speed of the wagon is u_w = 3.3 \ m/s

    The mass of the ball is  m_2 = 1.0 \  kg

    The initial speed off the ball  is  u_2 = 3.3 \ m/s

Generally the initial  speed of the system (i.e the child , wagon ,  ball) is  

          u_1 = u_w = u_2 = u =3.3 \ m/s

Generally from the law of linear momentum conservation

    p_i = p_f

Here p_i  is the momentum of the system before the ball is dropped which is mathematically represented  as

      p_i = ( m_1 + m_2 + m_3 ) *  u

=>   p_i = ( 20  + 4 + 1 ) *  3.3

=>   p_i = 82.5 \ kg \cdot m/s

and  

       p_f  is the momentum of the system after the ball is dropped which is mathematically represented  as  

       p_f = ( m_1 + m_w ) *  u_f

=>   p_i = ( 20  + 4 ) *  u_f

So

     82.5 = 24 * u_f

=>   u_f = 3.44 \  m/s
