Ignoring any losses, estimate how much energy (in units of Btu) is required to raise the temperature of water in a 90-gallon hot

-water tank from 60°F to 110°F. The specific heat of water is approximated as a constant, whose value is 0.999 Btu/·lbmR at the average temperature of (60 + 110)/2 = 85ºF. In fact, c remains constant at 0.999 Btu/lbm·R (to three digits) from 60ºF to 110ºF. For this same temperature range, the density varies from 62.36 lbm/ft3 at 60ºF to 61.86 lbm/ft3 at 110ºF. We approximate the density as remaining constant, whose value is 62.17 lbm/ft3 at the average temperature of 85ºF.

Answer:

Q=36444.11 Btu

Explanation:

Given that

Initial temperature = 60° F

Final temperature = 110° F

Specific heat of water = 0.999 Btu/lbm.R

Volume of water = 90 gallon

Mass = Volume x density

1\ gallon = 0.13ft^3

Mass ,m= 90 x 0.13 x 62.36 lbm

m=729.62 lbm

We know that sensible heat given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

Now by putting the values

Q= 729.62 x 0.999 x (110-60) Btu

Q=36444.11 Btu

Compare a series circuit powered by six 1.5-volt batteries to a series circuit powered by a single 9-volt battery. Make sure the
lana [24]

Answer:

Both series circuits provide a total voltage of 9 volts to the two bulbs connected in series and the voltage will be equally divided among two bulbs and they will have same brightness. Therefore, both circuits will have same characteristics.

Explanation:

We are asked to compare two series circuits having equal number of light bulbs.

1st circuit is powered by 6 batteries each having a voltage of 1.5V

2nd circuit is powered by a single battery having a voltage of 9V.

The six batteries in the 1st circuit can be connected together in series or in parallel.

When the batteries are connected in series (positive terminal of one battery connected to negative terminal of another battery) their voltage gets added which means

Voltage of pack = number of batteries*voltage of each battery

Voltage of pack = 6*1.5

Voltage of pack = 9 volts

But the current remains same in the series connection since there is only path for the current to flow.

On the other hand, when the batteries are connected in parallel, the voltage remains same but the current increases.

Circuit 1:

In this circuit, we have 6 batteries each of 1.5 volts connected in series to provide a voltage of 9 volts.

We have connected 2 bulbs in this series circuit.

The voltage will be equally divided between two bulbs if both bulbs are identical in construction.

So there will be 4.5 volts across each bulb and both bulbs will have same brightness.

Circuit 2:

In this circuit, we have 1 battery which provide a voltage of 9 volts.

We have connected 2 bulbs in this series circuit just like in circuit 1.

The voltage will be equally divided between two bulbs if both bulbs are identical in construction.

So there will be 4.5 volts across each bulb and both bulbs will have same brightness.

Conclusion:

Both series circuits provide a total voltage of 9 volts to the two bulbs connected in series and the voltage will be equally divided among two bulbs and they will have same brightness. Therefore, both circuits will have same characteristics.
