Answer:

1500Ω

Explanation:

Given data

voltage = 15 V

total Resistance = 4000Ω

potential drop V = 9.375 V

To find out

R2

Solution

we know R1 +R2 = 4000Ω

So we use here Ohm's law to find out current I

current = voltage / total resistance

I = 15 / 4000 = 3.75 × 10^{-3} A

Now we apply Kirchhoffs Voltage Law for find out R2

R2 = ( 15 - V ) / current

R2 = ( 15 - 9.375 ) / 3.75 × 10^{-3}

R2 = 1500Ω

Natali [406]

Answer:

Mechanical Efficiency =  83.51%

Explanation:

Given Data:

Pressure difference = ΔP=1.2 Psi

Flow rate = V=8ft^3/s\\

Power of Pump = 3 hp

Required:

Mechanical Efficiency

Solution:

We will first bring the change the units of given data into SI units.

P=1.2*6.895 = 8.274KPa\\V=8*0.00283=0.226 m^3/s\\P=3*0.746=2.238KW

Now we will find the change in energy.

Since it is mentioned in the statement that change in elevation (potential energy) and change in velocity (Kinetic Energy) are negligible.

Thus change in energy is

=(Mass * change in P)/density\\= \frac{M*P}{p}\\\\

As we know that Mass = Volume x density

substituting the value

Energy = Volume * density x ΔP / density

Change in energy = Volumetric flow x ΔP

Change in energy = 0.226 x 8.274 = 1.869 KW

Now mechanical efficiency = change in energy / work done by shaft

Efficiency = 1.869 / 2.238

Efficiency = 0.8351 = 83.51%

Colt1911 [192]
Answer: parabola

Explanation:

•Parabolic Trajectory:

In conclusion, projectiles travel with a parabolic trajectory due to the fact that the downward force of gravity accelerates them downward from their otherwise straight-line, gravity-free trajectory.

What colour is best for radiative heat transfer? a. Black b. Brown c. Blue d. White
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'a': Black

Explanation:

As we know that for an object which is black in color it absorbs all the electromagnetic radiation's that are incident on it. Thus if we need to transfer energy to an object by radiation the most suitable color for the process  is black.

In contrast to black color white color is an excellent reflector, reflecting all the incident radiation that may be incident on it hence is the least suitable material for radiative heat transfer.
