Answer:

power output = 30730.71 kJ/s

Explanation:

given data

pressure p1 = 10 MPa

temperature = 500° C

pressure p2 = 10 kPa

quality = 50.027 % = 0.50027

mass flow rate m = 15.469

to find out

power output in MW

solution

we know energy balance equation here that is

Energy (in) = Energy (out)

mh1 = P(out) + mh2

P(out) = - m ( h2 - h1) .................1

we know here h1 from steam table that is

h1 = 3375.1 kJ/kg and

hf = 191.81 and hfg = 2392.1 kJ/kg

h2 = hf + quality hfg

h2 = 191.81 + 0.50027 (2392.1) = 1388.50 kJ/kg

so from equation 1 we get power output

P(out) = - m ( h2 - h1)

P(out) = - 15.469 ( 1388.50 - 3375.1 )

power output = 30730.71 kJ/s

Light with an intensity of 1 kW/m2 falls normally on a surface and is completely absorbed. The radiation pressure is

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The radiation pressure of the light is 3.33 x 10⁻⁶ Pa.

Explanation:

Given;

intensity of light, I = 1 kW/m²

The radiation pressure of light is given as;

$Radiation \ Pressure = \frac{Flux \ density}{Speed \ of \ light}$

I kW = 1000 J/s

The energy flux density = 1000 J/m².s

The speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Thus, the radiation pressure of the light is calculated as;

$Radiation \ pressure = \frac{1000}{3*10^{8}} \\\\Radiation \ pressure =3.33*10^{-6} \ Pa$

Therefore, the radiation pressure of the light is 3.33 x 10⁻⁶ Pa.

Substances that move to the stronger parts of a magnetic field are termed ______ substances; the atomic feature responsible for

Arisa [49]

Substances that move to the stronger parts of a magnetic field are termed paramagnetic substances; the atomic feature responsible for this property is presence of unpaired electrons in atoms.

<h3>What is a paramagnetic substance?</h3>

A paramagnetic substance is the substance that possess unpaired electrons that are heavily attracted in a magnetic field.

A magnetic field is defined as the field that exists around a magnet that produces a field of force.

Examples of paramagnetic substance include the following:

aluminum,
gold,
copper.
Chromium, and
Manganese.

These substances are known as paramagnetic substances because they possess a high number of unpaired electrons.

Other properties of a paramagnetic substance include the following:

They have a permanent dipole moment or permanent magnetic moment.
They are weakly magnetized in the direction of the magnetizing field.
They usually have constant relative permeability (μr) slightly greater than 1.

Therefore, Substances that move to the stronger parts of a magnetic field are termed paramagnetic substances; the atomic feature responsible for this property is presence of unpaired electrons in atoms.

Elect the correct answer. Two identical projectiles, A and B, are launched with the same initial velocity, but the angle of laun

allsm [11]

Answer:

A. The range of A and B are equal.

Explanation:

Let u be the initial speed of both the projectile.

The gravitational force acting in the projectile is in the downward direction, sp the speed of the projectile in the horizontal direction remains constant and equals to the initial horizontal speed.

For projectile, a projectile having initial velocity u at an angle \theta with the horizontal direction,

The speed in the horizontal direction $= u\cos\theta$

and the speed in the vertical direction is $= u\sin\theta$ upward.

For A:

The speed in the horizontal direction $= u\cos75^{\circ}$

and the speed in the vertical direction is $= u\sin75^{\circ}$ upward.

For B:

The speed in the horizontal direction $= u\cos15^{\circ}$

and the speed in the vertical direction is $= u\sin15^{\circ}$ upward.

Let $t_A$ and $t_B$ are the time of flight for projectile A and B respectively.

As the range is the horizontal distance traveled by the projectile, so

The range for the projectile A $= u\cos75^{\circ}\times t_A\cdots(i)$

The range for the projectile B = $u\cos15^{\circ}\times t_B\cdots(ii)$

At the highest point, the vertical velocity is 0.

Bu using the equation of motion $v^2=u^2 +2a s.$

Here, the final velocity v=0, the initial velocity $u = u \sin \theta$ , h= vertical distance up to the highest point, and $a= -g$ (as per sign convention).

So, $s= \frac{u^2\sin^2 \theta}{2g}$

For projectile A: The maximum height attained.

$s_A= \frac{u^2\sin^2 75^{\circ}}{2g}$

For projectile B: The maximum height attained.

$s_B= \frac{u^2\sin^2 15^{\circ}}{2g}$

As $\sin^2 75^{\circ} > \sin^2 15^{\circ}$ , the height of A is attained by A is more than the heigHt attained by B.

Now, the times required to reach the highest point from the ground and again form the highest point to the ground are the same.

So, the total time of flight = 2 x (Time to reach the highest point)

In a similar way, by using the equation of motion v=u+at,

The time to reach the highest point $=\frac {u\sin\theta}{g}$

where g is the acceleration due to gravity.

So, the total time of flight

$= 2 \times \frac {u\sin\theta}{g}$

The total time of flight for A

$=2 \times \frac {u\sin75^{\circ}}{g}$

The total time of flight for A

$=2 \times \frac {u\sin15^{\circ}}{g}$

Now, from equations (i) and (ii),

The range for the projectile A =

$u\cos75^{\circ}\times \frac {2u\sin75^{\circ}}{g}=\frac {u^2 \sin 150^{\circ}}{g}= \frac {u^2 \sin 30^{\circ}}{g}$

The range for the projectile B =

$u\cos15^{\circ}\times \frac {2u\sin15^{\circ}}{g}=\frac {u^2 \sin 30^{\circ}}{g}.$

Both the projectile have the same range.

Hence, option (A) is correct.
