Answer:

a) 1.16 m/s

b)  1/216000

c)  (√15)/6480000

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Length of boat prototype, lp = 30 m

Speed of boat prototype = 9 m/s

Length of boat model, lm= 0.5 m

a) lm/lp = 0.5/30 = 1/60 = ∝

(vm/vp) = ∝^(1/2) = √∝ = (1/60)^(1/2)

vm = 9 × (1/60)^(1/2) = 1.16 m/s

b) The ratio of the model to prototype drag, Fm/Fp, is given as follows;

Fm/Fp = (vm/vp)²×(lm/lp)² = ∝³

Fm/Fp = (1/60)³ = 1/216000

c) The ratio of the model to prototype power  pm/p_p = (Fm/Fp) × (vm/vp) = ∝³×√∝

The ratio of the model to prototype power  pm/p_p = √(1/60) × (1/60)³

pm/p_p = √(1/60) × (1/60)³ = (√15)/6480000

Ammonia enters the expansion valve of a refrigeration system at a pressure of 1.4 MPa and a temperature of 32degreeC and exits a
AveGali [126]

Answer:

the quality of the refrigerant exiting the expansion valve is 0.2337 = 23.37 %

Explanation:

given data

pressure p1 = 1.4 MPa = 14 bar

temperature t1 = 32°C

exit pressure = 0.08 MPa = 0.8 bar

to find out

the quality of the refrigerant exiting the expansion valve

solution

we know here refrigerant undergoes at throtting process so

h1 = h2

so by table A 14 at p1 = 14 bar

t1 ≤ Tsat

so we use equation here that is

h1 = hf(t1) = 332.17 kJ/kg

this value we get from table A13

so as h1 = h2

h1 = h(f2)  + x(2) * h(fg2)

so

exit quality  = \frac{h1 - h(f2)}{h(fg2)}

exit quality  = \frac{332.17- 9.04}{1382.73)}

so exit quality = 0.2337 = 23.37 %

the quality of the refrigerant exiting the expansion valve is 0.2337 = 23.37 %

A person walks into a refrigerated warehouse with head uncovered. Model the head as a 25- cm diameter sphere at 35°C with a surf

Answer:

Hello some parts of your question is missing below is the missing part

Convection coefficient = 11 w/m^2. °c

answer : 44.83 watts

Explanation:

Given data :

surface emissivity ( ε )= 0.95

head ( sphere) diameter( D )  = 0.25 m

Temperature of sphere( T )  = 35° C

Temperature of surrounding ( T∞ )  = 25°C

Temperature of surrounding surface ( Ts ) = 15°C

б  = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

Determine the total rate of heat loss

First we calculate the surface area of the sphere

As = \pi D^{2}  

= \pi * 0.25^2 =  0.2 m^2

next we calculate heat loss due to radiation

Qrad = ε * б * As( T^{4} - T^{4} _{s} )  ---- ( 1 )

where ;

ε = 0.95

б = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

As = 0.2 m^2

T = 35 + 273 = 308 k

Ts = 15 + 273 = 288 k

input values into equation 1

Qrad = 0.95 * ( 5.67 * 10^-8 ) * 0.2 ( (308)^4 - ( 288)^4 )

         = 22.83  watts

Qrad ( heat loss due to radiation ) = 22.83 watts

calculate the heat loss due to convection

Qconv = h* As ( ΔT )

           = 11*0.2 ( 35 -25 )  = 22 watts

Hence total rate of heat loss

=  22 + 22.83

= 44.83 watts

Calculate the amount of current flowing through a 75-watt light bulb that is connected to a 120-volt circuit in your home.
vodomira [7]

Answer:

I = 0.625 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of the light bulb, P = 75 W

Voltage of the circuit, V = 120 V

We need to find the current flowing through it. We know that, Power is given by :

P=V\times I

I is the electric current

I=\dfrac{P}{V}\\\\I=\dfrac{75\ W}{120\ V}\\\\I=0.625\ A

So, the current is 0.625 A.

1.Which thematic group uses technology to direct the behavior of dynamical systems, ensuring that they behave in a predictable m
dsp73

The thematic group governing the behavior of dynamic system is control system, and the one packaging the miniature components to conduct electricity is electronic system. Thus, option E is correct.

<h3>What are thematic groups?</h3>

The thematic groups comprises of group of people that work over the same idea or the concept. The thematic groups working on different projects and ideas comprised to work with different systems.

The control of dynamic system in order to produce the desirable outcome has been the role of the control system.

The packaging of the electronic miniatures in system that performs the role of direction of electricity is the role of electronic system thematic group. Thus, option E is correct.
