Answer:

 Primary succession begins in barren areas, such as on bare rock exposed by a retreating glacier. The first inhabitants are lichens or plants—those that can survive in such an environment. Over hundreds of years these “pioneer species” convert the rock into soil that can support simple plants such as grasses. These grasses further modify the soil, which is then colonized by other types of plants. Each successive stage modifies the habitat by altering the amount of shade and the composition of the soil. The final stage of succession is a climax community, which is a very stable stage that can endure for hundreds of years.

What is the maximal coefficient of performance of a refrigerator which cools down 10 kg of water (and then ice) to -6C. Upper he
inysia [295]

Given:

Temperature of water, T_{1} = -6^{\circ}C =273 +(-6) =267 K

Temperature surrounding refrigerator, T_{2} = 21^{\circ}C =273 + 21 =294 K

Specific heat given for water, C_{w} = 4.19 KJ/kg/K

Specific heat given for ice, C_{ice} = 2.1 KJ/kg/K

Latent heat of fusion,  L_{fusion} = 335KJ/kg

Solution:

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for refrigerator is given by:

Max COP_{refrigerator} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}

= \frac{267}{294 - 267} = 9.89

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for heat pump is given by:

Max COP_{heat pump} = \frac{T_{1}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}\frac{294}{294 - 267} = 10.89

An equal-tangent sag vertical curve (with a negative initial and a positive final grade) is designed for 55 mi/h. The PVI is at
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.

Explanation:

Length of curve is given as

L=2(PVT-PVI)\\L=2(242+30-240+00)\\L=2(230)\\L=460 ft

G_2 is given as

G_2=\frac{E_{PVT}-E_{PVI}}{0.5L}\\G_2=\frac{127.5-122}{0.5*460}\\G_2=0.025=2.5 \%

The K value is given from the table 3.3 for 55 mi/hr is 115. So the value of A is given as

A=\frac{L}{K}\\A=\frac{460}{115}\\A=4

A is given as

-G_1=A-G_2\\-G_1=4.0-2.5\\-G_1=1.5\\G_1=-1.5\%

With initial grade, the elevation of PVC is

E_{PVC}=E_{PVI}+G_1(L/2)\\E_{PVC}=122+1.5%(460/2)\\E_{PVC}=125.45 ft\\

The station is given as

St_{PVC}=St_{PVI}-(L/2)\\St_{PVC}=24000-(230)\\St_{PVC}=237+70\\

Low point is given as

x=K \times |G_1|\\x=115 \times 1.5\\x=172.5 ft

The station of low point is given as

St_{low}=St_{PVC}-(x)\\St_{low}=23770+(172.5)\\St_{low}=239+42.5 ft\\

The elevation is given as

E_{low}=\frac{G_2-G_1}{2L} x^2+G_1x+E_{PVC}\\E_{low}=\frac{2.5-(-1.5)}{2*460} (1.72)^2+(-1.5)*(1.72)+125.45\\E_{low}=124.16 ft

So the lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.

A piston-cylinder device contains 0.58 kg of steam at 300°C and 0.5 MPa. Steam is cooled at constant pressure until one-half of
Mumz [18]

Answer:

a) Tբ = 151.8°C

b) ΔV = - 0.194 m³

c) The T-V diagram is sketched in the image attached.

Explanation:

Using steam tables,

At the given pressure of 0.5 MPa, the saturation temperature is the final temperature.

Right from the steam tables (A-5) with a little interpolation, Tբ = 151.793°C

b) The volume change

Using data from A-5 and A-6 of the steam tables,

The volume change will be calculated from the mass (0.58 kg), the initial specific volume (αᵢ) and the final specific volume

(αբ) (which is calculated from the final quality and the consituents of the specific volumes).

ΔV = m(αբ - αᵢ)

αբ = αₗ + q(αₗᵥ) = αₗ + q (αᵥ - αₗ)

q = 0.5, αₗ = 0.00109 m³/kg, αᵥ = 0.3748 m³/kg

αբ = 0.00109 + 0.5(0.3748 - 0.00109)

αբ = 0.187945 m³/kg

αᵢ = 0.5226 m³/kg

ΔV = 0.58 (0.187945 - 0.5226) = - 0.194 m³

c) The T-V diagram is sketched in the image attached
