Electric power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbine–generator at a site 120 m below the free surface of a large

water reservoir that can supply water at a rate of 1500 kg/s steadily. Determine the power generation potential.

1 answer:

Gelneren [198K]3 years ago

Answer:

1764 kilowatt

Explanation:

h = 120 m, mass per second = 1500 kg/s

Power = m g h / t

Power = 1500 x 9.8 x 120 / 1

Power = 1764000 Watt

Power = 1764 kilowatt

Que unidad de medida se utiliza para expresar la capacidad o volumen de un objeto? Da un ejemplo

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

<em>Explicado a continuación</em>

Explanation:

Hay una pequeña diferencia conceptual entre la capacidad y el volumen de un objeto, a saber:

El volumen hace referencia al espacio que ocupa un objeto, mientras que la capacidad hace referencia al espacio que este contiene. Calcular el volumen de un cuerpo es medir cuánto ocupa mientras que calcular su capacidad es medir cuánto cabe en él.

En la práctica, ambos conceptos son usados indistintamente, ya que tienen unidades equivalentes.

El volumen tiene unidades de longitud al cubo, como por ejemplo:

$m^3,\ cm^3\ ,dm^3,\ pie^3\ , pulg^3$

y la capacidad se suele expresar en litros o unidades derivadas: litro, mililitro, centilitro, etc.

Como mencionamos, hay equivalencia engre los dos grupos de unidades. Entre las más conocidas están:

$1\ lt=1\ dm^3,\ 1\ m^3=1000\ lt$

The overall energy involved in the formation of CsCl from Cs(s) and Cl2(g) is −443 kJ/mol. Given the following information: heat

german

Answer : The magnitude of the lattice energy for CsCl is, 667 KJ/mole

Explanation :

The steps involved in the born-Haber cycle for the formation of $CsCl$ :

(1) Conversion of solid calcium into gaseous cesium atoms.

$Cs(s)\overset{\Delta H_s}\rightarrow Cs(g)$

$\Delta H_s$ = sublimation energy of calcium

(2) Conversion of gaseous cesium atoms into gaseous cesium ions.

$Ca(g)\overset{\Delta H_I}\rightarrow Ca^{+1}(g)$

$\Delta H_I$ = ionization energy of calcium

(3) Conversion of molecular gaseous chlorine into gaseous chlorine atoms.

$Cl_2(g)\overset{\frac{1}{2}\Delta H_D}\rightarrow Cl(g)$

$\Delta H_D$ = dissociation energy of chlorine

(4) Conversion of gaseous chlorine atoms into gaseous chlorine ions.

$Cl(g)\overset{\Delta H_E}\rightarrow Cl^-(g)$

$\Delta H_E$ = electron affinity energy of chlorine

(5) Conversion of gaseous cations and gaseous anion into solid cesium chloride.

$Cs^{1+}(g)+Cl^-(g)\overset{\Delta H_L}\rightarrow CsCl(s)$

$\Delta H_L$ = lattice energy of calcium chloride

To calculate the overall energy from the born-Haber cycle, the equation used will be:

$\Delta H_f^o=\Delta H_s+\Delta H_I+\Delta H_D+\Delta H_E+\Delta H_L$

Now put all the given values in this equation, we get:

$-443KJ/mole=76KJ/mole+376KJ/mole+121KJ/mole+(-349KJ/mole)+\Delta H_L$

$\Delta H_L=-667KJ/mole$

The negative sign indicates that for exothermic reaction, the lattice energy will be negative.

Therefore, the magnitude of the lattice energy for CsCl is, 667 KJ/mole

A book rest on a table which it's face having a sides 30cm by 25cm . if it exerts apressure of 200pa then determine the mass of

Simora [160]

Answer:

Approximately $1.5\; \rm kg$ . (Assuming that this table is level, and that the gravitational field strength is $g = 9.8\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

Convert the dimensions of this book to standard units:

$\displaystyle 30\; \rm cm = 30\; \rm cm \times \frac{1\; \rm m}{100\; \rm cm} = 0.30\; \rm m$ .

$\displaystyle 25\; \rm cm = 25\; \rm cm \times \frac{1\; \rm m}{100\; \rm cm} = 0.25\; \rm m$ .

Calculate the surface area of this book:

$0.30\; \rm m \times 0.25\; \rm m = 0.075\; \rm m^{2}$ .

Pressure is the ratio between normal force and the area over which this force is applied.

$\displaystyle \text{Pressure} = \frac{\text{normal Force}}{\text{contact Area}}$ .

Equivalently:

$(\text{normal Force}) = \text{Pressure} \cdot (\text{contact Area})$ .

In this question, $\text{Pressure} = 200\; \rm Pa = 200\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ .

It was found that $(\text{contact Area}) = 0.075\; \rm m^{2}$ (assuming that the entire side of this book is in contact with the table.

Hence:

$\begin{aligned}& (\text{normal Force}) \\ &= \text{Pressure} \cdot (\text{contact Area}) \\ &= 200\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2} \times 0.075\; \rm m^{2} \\ &= 15\; \rm N \end{aligned}$ .

If that the table is level, this normal force would be equal to the weight of this book:

$\text{weight} = 15\; \rm N$ .

Assuming that the gravitational field strength is $g = 9.8\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1}$ . The mass of this book would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{15\; \rm N}{9.8\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}\approx 1.5\; \rm kg\end{aligned}$ .
