Answer:

a) temperature: random error

b) parallax: systematic error

c) using incorrect value: systematic error

Explanation:

Systematic errors are associated with faulty calibration or reading of the equipments used and they could be avoided refining your method.

A 78-percent efficient 12-hp pump is pumping water from a lake to a nearby pool at a rate of 1.5 ft3/s through a constant-diamet
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

irreversible head loss is 38.51 ft

mechanical power 6.55 hp

Explanation:

Given data:

Pump Power 12 hp = 8948.39 watt = 6600 lbs ft/sec

Q = 1.5 ft^3/s

Pump actually delivers P'  = \eta P = 0.78 \times 8948.39 = 6979.74 watt

Power that water gains= mgh = \rho \phi gh = r \phi h

P = 62.4 \times 1.5 \times 32 = 2995.2 lbs ft/sec

hence Power lost = 6600 - 2995.2  3604.8 lbs ft/sec = 6.55 hp

head losshl = \frac{3604.8}{r \phi} = \frac{3604.8}{62.4 \times 1.5}

hl = 38.51 ft

A 50kg block of nickel at 90°C is dropped into an insulated tank that contains 0.5 m3 of liquid water at 25°C. Determine the fol
Valentin [98]

Answer:

a).Control volume

b). C_{nickel} = 502.416 J/kg-K

c).  C_{water} = 4.187 kJ/kg-K

d). T_{2} = 87.91°C

Explanation:

a). It is a control volume system because mass is varying in the system.

b). Specific heat of nickel is C_{nickel} =   502.416 J/kg-K

c). Specific heat of water is  C_{water} = 4.187 kJ/kg-K

d).We know that

   net  energy transfer = change in internal energy

m_{nickel}\times c_{nickel}(T_{2}-T_{nickel})=m_{water}\times c_{water}(T_{2}-T_{water})

m_{nickel}\times c_{nickel}(T_{2}-T_{nickel})=(volume_{water}\times density_{water})\times c_{water}(T_{2}-T_{water})

50\times 502.416\times (T_{2}-90)=(0.5\times 1000)\times 4.187\times (T_{2}-25)

25120.8\times (T_{2}-90)=2093.5\times  (T_{2}-25)

T_{2} = 87.91°C

Identify an object in your house that contains a physical system and list three questions you could use to define the system
jonny [76]

Answer:

ALL CAREFULLY ANSWERED CORRECTLY

Explanation:

1) A loaf of Bread PHYSICAL SYSTEM

✓ How can the environment affect the edibility of the bread

✓ What are the constituents that makes up the bread

✓ What process is involved in these constituents mixing to form the loaf.

2) The law of thermodynamics makes us to understand that when heat/energy passes through a system, the systems internal energy changes with respect to the conservation of energy law. That is energy lost = energy gained. Typically, ice would melt in a cup of hot tea because of the thermal energy in the molecules of the hot tea. When you heat a material, you are adding thermal kinetic energy to its molecules and usually raising its temperature. The temperature of the ice raises due to the kinetic energy added to it and it melts to water.

3) The theory of systems view the world as a complex system of interconnected parts. If we consider the society; (financial systems, political systems, etc) we will agree that they individually have their own components and it's the summation of this components that makes the system, this implies that system thinking could be applicable in this kinda of systems as long as they are made up of components.

4) Technology has boosted every sector of our lives and it has the capacity to do more. Restricting it's importance to entertainment alone would be an underusing of its potentials. Engineering students infact should not need any drive to be encouraged about maximizing all it can do in shaping our world.

5) ~ Nature shows its splendid soul

~Never ceases to leave us in amazement

~And we are in love

A 900 kg car is accelerated from a speed of 10 m/s to 30 m/s. An estimated heat loss of 20 BTU's occurs during the acceleration.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Work = 651,1011 kJ

Explanation:

Let´s take the car as a system in order to apply the first law of thermodynamics as follows:

E_{in}- E_{out}=E_{system,final}- E_{system,initial}

Where

E_{in}- E_{out}=(Q_{in}-Q_{out})_{heat}+(W_{in}-W_{out})_{work}+(Em_{in}-Em_{out})_{mass}

And considering that there is no mass transfer and that the only energy flows that interact with the system are the heat losses and the work needed to move the car we have:

E_{in}- E_{out}=-Q_{out}+W_{in}

Regarding the energy system we have the following:

E_{system,final}- E_{system,initial}=(U_{f}-U_{i})_{internal}+(1/2m(V^2_{f}-V^2_{i}))_{kinetic}+(mg(h_{f}-h_{i}))_{potential}

By doing the calculations we have:

E_{system,final}- E_{system,initial}=[0,1*900]_{internal}+[0,5*900(30^2-10^2)/1000)_{kinetic}+(900*10*(20-0)/1000)_{potential}\\E_{system,final}- E_{system,initial}=90+360+180=630kJ

Consider that in the previous calculation, the kinetic and potential energy terms were divided by 1.000 to change the units from J to kJ.

Finally, the work needed to move the car under the required conditions is calculated as follows:

W_{in}=Q_{out}+E_{system,final}- E_{system,initial}\\W_{in}=21,1011+630=651,1011kJ

Consider that in the previous calculation, the heat loss was changed previously from BTU to kJ.
