Is water wet? What is your reasoning for thinking this?

Yes,because when you touch water or gets on you what do you feel it wet right? therefore water is wet

So I would say (a) water isn't always wet; wetness is always relative to a given substance and/or type of surface and (b) as to why it is wet when it is, presumably the answer is in terms of surface tension.

What does the doppler effect indicate about the motion of galaxies?

Taya2010 [7]

When galaxies move farther away the wavelength of the light is longer causing the galaxy to shift red but if it moves closer, the wavelength of the light gets smaller causing the galaxy to blue shift. The reason that the wavelength increases or decrease is due to the doppler effect.

Steam enters an adiabatic turbine at 6 MPa, 600 ℃, and 80 m/s and leaves at 50 kPa, 100 ℃, and 140 m/s. If the power output of t

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

W(r,out) = 5.81 MW

$\eta$ = 86.1 %

Explanation:

we use here steam table for get value of h1, s1 etc

so use for 6MPa and 600 degree

Enthalphy of steam h1 = 3658.8 kJ/kg

Entropy of steam s 1 is = 7.1693 kJ /kg.K

and

for 50 kPa and 100 degree

Enthalphy of steam h2 = 2682.4 kJ/kg

Entropy of steam s2 is = 7.6953 kJ /kg.K

so we use here energy balance equation that is

$m\times(h1 + \frac{v1^2}{2} = m\times(h2 + \frac{v2^2}{2} + W(out)$ ..............1

put here value and we get m

m = $\frac{5\times1000}{3658.8-2682.4+\frac{80^2-140^2}{2}\times \frac{1}{1000}}$

solve it we get

m = 5.156 kg/s

so by energy balance equation

m $\psi$ 1 = m $\psi$ 2 + W(r,out)

W(r,out) = m( $\psi$ 1 - $\psi$ 2)

W(r,out) = h1 - h2 + ΔKE + ΔPE - To(s1-s2)

W(r,out) = $m[h1-h2+ \frac{v1^2-v^2}{2}- To (s1-s2)$

W(r,out) = W(a,out) - m.To.(s1-s2) ........................2

put here value

W(r,out) = 5000 - ( 5.156 × (25 + 273) ×( 7.1693 - 7.6953)

W(r,out) = 5908.19 = 5.81 MW

and

second law deficiency is

$\eta$ = $\frac{W(a,out)}{W(r,out)}$ ..............................3

put here value

$\eta$ = \frac{5}{5.81}

$\eta$ = 86.1 %

A biker travels at an average speed of 18 km/hr along a 0.30 km straight segment of a bike path. How much time (in hours) does t

lawyer [7]

Answer: 0.016 h

Explanation:

$\text{Average speed} = \frac{\text {Total Distance}}{\text {total time taken}}$

It is given that, biker has an average speed = 18 km/h

Total distance traveled = 0.30 km

Therefore, time taken by biker to travel this distance:

$\Rightarrow \text{total time taken} = \frac{0.30 km}{18 km/h}=0.016 h$

Thus, the biker takes 0.016 hours to travel the segment of 0.30 km at an average speed of 18 km/h.
