Saturated steam at 125 kpa is compressed adiabatically in a centrifugal compressor to 700 kpa at the rate of 2.5 kg⋅s−1. the com
Tpy6a [65]
M° = 2.5 kg/sec
For saturated steam tables
at p₁ = 125Kpa
hg = h₁ = 2685.2 KJ/kg
SQ = s₁ = 7.2847 KJ/kg-k
for isotopic compression
S₁ = S₂ = 7.2847 KJ/kg-k
at 700Kpa steam with S = 7.2847
h₂ 3051.3 KJ/kg
Compressor efficiency
h =  0.78
0.78 = h₂ - h₁/h₂-h₁
0.78 = h₂-h₁ → 0.78 = 3051.3 - 2685.2/h₂ - 2685.2
h₂ = 3154.6KJ/kg
at 700Kpa with 3154.6 KJ/kg
enthalpy gives
entropy S₂ = 7.4586 KJ/kg-k
Work = m(h₂ - h₁) = 2.5(3154.6 - 2685.2
W = 1173.5KW

A student drops an object out the window of the top floor of a high-rise dormitory.
seropon [69]

-- The acceleration due to gravity is 32.2 ft/sec² .  That  means that the
speed of a falling object increases by an additional 32.2 ft/sec every second.

-- If dropped from "rest" (zero initial speed), then after falling for 4 seconds,
the object's speed is (4.0) x (32.2) = <em>128.8 ft/sec</em>.

-- 128.8 ft/sec = <em>87.8 miles per hour</em>

Now we can switch over to the metric system, where the acceleration
due to gravity is typically rounded to 9.8 meters/sec² .

-- Distance = (1/2) x (acceleration) x (time)²

       D = (1/2) (9.8) x (4)² =<em>  78.4 meters</em>

-- At 32 floors per 100 meters,  78.4 meters = dropped from the <em>25th floor</em>.


The 5 points are certainly appreciated, but I do wish they were Celsius points.

Caso #1 Leo Messi está jugando la final de la Champion league 2019-2020 y va a cobrar un tiro libre importante, necesita aplicar
kramer

Answer:

Tiene que patear el balón cerca del nivel del suelo para conseguir el gol.

Explicación:

Leo Messi necesita patear el balón no en el aire, en el nivel del suelo para poder meter el gol para el equipo. Delante del fútbol hay muchos jugadores del equipo contrario dispuestos a detener el tiro libre de Leo Messi. Cuando Leo Messi patea el balón en el aire, los jugadores también saltan en el aire para detener el tiro libre que atraviesa la cabeza y para conseguir el gol Leo Messi tiene que evitar patear el balón en el aire y patear el balón cerca del nivel del suelo. que puede atravesar a los jugadores oponentes cuando lo saltan para detener el balón a través de sus cabezas para que el balón pase por debajo de sus pies y llegue a la portería.

Which observation confused scientists regarding the photoelectric effect? A. Low-intensity light does not always cause electrons
e-lub [12.9K]
Light does not always cause electrons to be emitted.
If it doesn't, then you might think that making the light brighter
would cause electrons to be emitted. That DOESN't work, but
making the light higher FREQUENCY causes electrons to be
emitted !

Did you catch that ? ==> If you light a match next to a piece of metal, and the match burns with a red flame and NO electrons are emitted from the metal, then you can move in with a military searchlight or a ginormous high-power laser that has the same red color and shine it on the metal, and still no electrons will be emitted. But if you light a little match next to the metal and the match burns with a BLUE flame, then electrons WILL be emitted. Knocking electrons out of the metal has nothing to do with how strong and bright the light is. It only depends on the FREQUENCY (color) of the light !

This observation was confusing until the beginning of the 20th Century,
even to the smartest scientists. There was no way to explain it until 1905,
when Albert Einstein pretty much invented Quantum Mechanics to explain
this "Photoelectric Effect".

Of all of Einstein's great discoveries, THIS was the one for which he was
awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics ... in 1922. He never won a Nobel for
his theories of Relativity.
