Answer:

(a) Relative Humidity = 48%,

Specific humidity = 0.0095

(b) Enthalpy = 65 KJ/Kg of dry sir

Specific volume = 0.86 m^3/Kg of dry air

(c/d) 12.78 degree C

(e) Specific volume = 0.86 m^3/Kg of dry air

Explanation:

the first huge step in solar penal technology came when alxendare becquerel observed the photovolatic effect in 1839,which occurs when a material produces electric current when exposed to light.it was not untill 1888 that the first solar cell was actually built by aleksander stoletov.

A particle moving on a straight line has acceleration a = 5-3t, and its velocity is 7 at time t = 2. If s(t) is the distance fro

Vikki [24]

Given acceleration a = 5-3t, and its velocity is 7 at time t = 2, the value of s2 - s1 = 7

<h3>How to solve for the value of s2 - s1</h3>

We have

= $\frac{dv}{dt} =v't = 5-3t\\\\\int\limits^a_b {v'(t)} \, dt$

$= \int\limits^a_b {(5-3t)} \, dt$

$5t - \frac{3t^2}{2} +c$

v2 = 5x2 - 3x2 + c

= 10-6+c

= 4+c

$s(t) = \frac{5t^2}{2} -\frac{t^3}{2} +3t + c$

S2 - S1

$=(5*\frac{4}{2} -\frac{8}{2} +3*2*c)-(\frac{5}{2} *1^2-\frac{1^2}{2} +3*1*c)$

= 6 + 6+c - 2+3+c

12+c-5+c = 0

7 = c

A horizontal curve of a two-lane undivided highway (12-foot lanes) has a radius of 678 feet to the center line of the roadway. A

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

maximum speed for safe vehicle operation = 55mph

Explanation:

Given data :

radius ( R ) = 678 ft

old building located ( m )= 30 ft

super elevation = 0.06

<u>Determine the maximum speed for safe vehicle operation </u>

firstly calculate the stopping sight distance

m = R ( 1 - cos $\frac{28.655*S}{R}$ ) ---- ( 1 )

R = 678

m ( horizontal sightline ) = 30 ft

back to equation 1

30 = 678 ( 1 - cos (28.655 *s / 678 ) )

( 1 - cos (28.655 *s / 678 ) ) = 30 / 678 = 0.044

cos $\frac{28.65 *s }{678}$ = 1.044

hence ; 28.65 * s = 678 * 0.2956

s = 6.99 ≈ 7 ft

next we will calculate the design speed ( u ) using the formula below

S = 1.47 ut + $\frac{u^2}{30(\frac{a}{3.2} )-G1}$ ---- ( 2 )

t = reaction time, a = vehicle acceleration, G1 = grade percentage

assuming ; t = 2.5 sec , a = 11.2 ft/sec^2, G1 = 0

back to equation 2

6.99 = 1.47 * u * 2.5 + $\frac{u^2}{30[(11.2/32.2)-0 ]}$

3.675 u + 0.0958 u^2 - 6.99 = 0

u ( 3.675 + 0.0958 u ) = 6.99

Steam enters a turbine steadily at 7 MPa and 600°C with a velocity of 60 m/s and leaves at 25 kPa with a quality of 95 percent.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a) $\dot m = 16.168\,\frac{kg}{s}$ , b) $v_{out} = 680.590\,\frac{m}{s}$ , c) $\dot W_{out} = 18276.307\,kW$

Explanation:

A turbine is a steady-state devices which transforms fluid energy into mechanical energy and is modelled after the Principle of Mass Conservation and First Law of Thermodynamics, whose expressions are described hereafter:

Mass Balance

$\frac{v_{in}\cdot A_{in}}{\nu_{in}} - \frac{v_{out}\cdot A_{out}}{\nu_{out}} = 0$

Energy Balance

$-q_{loss} - w_{out} + h_{in} - h_{out} = 0$

Specific volumes and enthalpies are obtained from property tables for steam:

Inlet (Superheated Steam)

$\nu_{in} = 0.055665\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

$h_{in} = 3650.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

Outlet (Liquid-Vapor Mix)

$\nu_{out} = 5.89328\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

$h_{out} = 2500.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$

a) The mass flow rate of the steam is:

$\dot m = \frac{v_{in}\cdot A_{in}}{\nu_{in}}$

$\dot m = \frac{\left(60\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (0.015\,m^{2})}{0.055665\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} }$

$\dot m = 16.168\,\frac{kg}{s}$

b) The exit velocity of steam is:

$\dot m = \frac{v_{out}\cdot A_{out}}{\nu_{out}}$

$v_{out} = \frac{\dot m \cdot \nu_{out}}{A_{out}}$

$v_{out} = \frac{\left(16.168\,\frac{kg}{s} \right)\cdot \left(5.89328\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} \right)}{0.14\,m^{2}}$

$v_{out} = 680.590\,\frac{m}{s}$

c) The power output of the steam turbine is:

$\dot W_{out} = \dot m \cdot (-q_{loss} + h_{in}-h_{out})$

$\dot W_{out} = \left(16.168\,\frac{kg}{s} \right)\cdot \left(-20\,\frac{kJ}{kg} + 3650.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 2500.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}\right)$

$\dot W_{out} = 18276.307\,kW$
