Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

As we know that heat transfer take place from high temperature body to low temperature body.

In the given problem ,the temperature of the air is high as compare to the temperature  of can of bear ,so the heat transfer will take place from air to can of bear and at the last stage when temperature of can of bear will become to the temperature of air then heat transfer will be stop.Because temperature of the  both body will become at the same  and this stage is called thermal equilibrium.

So an office worker claim is correct.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

a) 1 m^3/Kg  

b) 504 kJ

c) 514 kJ

Explanation:

<u>Given  </u>

-The mass of C_o2 = 1 kg  

-The volume of the tank V_tank = 1 m^3  

-The added energy E = 14 W  

-The time of adding energy t = 10 s  

-The increase in specific internal energy Δu = +10 kJ/kg  

-The change in kinetic energy ΔKE = 0 and The change in potential energy  

ΔPE =0  

<u>Required  </u>

(a)Specific volume at the final state v_2

(b)The energy transferred by the work W in kJ.  

(c)The energy transferred by the heat transfer W in kJ and the direction of  

the heat transfer.  

Assumption  

-Quasi-equilibrium process.  

<u>Solution</u>  

(a) The volume and the mass doesn't change then, the specific volume is constant.

 v= V_tank/m ---> 1/1= 1 m^3/Kg  

(b) The added work is defined by.  

W =E * t --->  14 x 10 x 3600 x 10^-3 = 504 kJ  

(c) From the first law of thermodynamics.  

Q - W = m * Δu

Q = (m * Δu) + W--> (1 x 10) + 504 = 514 kJ

The heat have (+) sign the n it is added to the system.

An 1,840 W toaster, a 1,420 W electric frying pan, and a 70 W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15 A, 120 V circuit. (T
Viktor [21]

Answer:

A)

Current drawn by toaster = 15.33 A

Current drawn by electric frying pan = 11.83 A

Current drawn by lamp = 0.58 A

B)

The fuse will definitely blow up since the current drawn by three devices (27.74 A) is way higher than 15 A fuse rating.

Explanation:

There are three devices plugged into the same outlet.

Toaster = 1840 W

Electric frying pan = 1420 W

Lamp = 70 W

Since the three devices are connected in parallel therefore, the voltage across them will be same but the current drawn by each will be different.

A) What current is drawn by each device?

The current flowing through the device is given by

I = P/V

Where P is the power and V is the voltage.

Current drawn by toaster:

I = 1840/120

I = 15.33 A

Current drawn by electric frying pan:

I = 1420/120

I = 11.83 A

Current drawn by lamp:

I = 70/120

I = 0.58 A

B) Will this combination blow the 15-A fuse?

The total current drawn by all three devices is

Total current = 15.33 + 11.83 + 0.58

Total current = 27.74 A

Therefore, the fuse will definitely blow up since the current drawn by three devices (27.74 A) is way higher than 15 A fuse rating.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

a)Δs = 834 mm

b)V=1122 mm/s

a=450\ mm/s^2

Explanation:

Given that

s = 15t^3 - 3t\ mm

a)

When t= 2 s

s = 15t^3 - 3t\ mm

s = 15\times 2^3 - 3\times 2\ mm

s= 114 mm

At t= 4 s

s = 15t^3 - 3t\ mm

s = 15\times 4^3- 3\times 4\ mm

s= 948 mm

So the displacement between 2 s to 4 s

Δs = 948 - 114 mm

Δs = 834 mm

b)

We know that velocity V

V=\dfrac{ds}{dt}

\dfrac{ds}{dt}=45t^2-3

At t=  5 s

V=45t^2-3

V=45\times 5^2-3

V=1122 mm/s

We know that acceleration a

a=\dfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}

\dfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}=90t

a= 90 t

a = 90 x 5

a=450\ mm/s^2

Fofino [41]

Answer:

the minimum shaft diameter is 35.026 mm

the maximum shaft diameter is 35.042mm

Explanation:

Given data;

D-maximum = 35.020mm and d-minimum = 35.000mm

we have to go through Tables "Descriptions of preferred Fits using the Basic Hole System" so from the table, locational interference fits H7/p6

so From table, Selection of International Trade Grades metric series

the grade tolerance are;

ΔD = IT7(0.025 mm)

Δd = IT6(0.016 mm)

Also from Table "Fundamental Deviations for Shafts" metric series

Sf = 0.026

so  

D-maximum

Dmax = d + Sf + Δd

we substitute

Dmax = 35 + 0.026 + 0.016

Dmax = 35.042 mm

therefore the maximum diameter of shaft is 35.042mm

d-minimum

Dmin = d + Sf

Dmin = 35 + 0.026

Dmin = 35.026 mm

therefore the minimum diameter of shaft is 35.026 mm

The current entering the positive terminal of a device is i(t)= 6e^-2t mA and the voltage across the device is v(t)= 10di/dtV.
liberstina [14]

Answer:

a) 2,945 mC

b) P(t) = -720*e^(-4t) uW

c) -180 uJ

Explanation:

Given:

                           i (t) = 6*e^(-2*t)

                           v (t) = 10*di / dt

Find:

( a) Find the charge delivered to the device between t=0 and t=2 s.

( b) Calculate the power absorbed.

( c) Determine the energy absorbed in 3 s.

Solution:

-  The amount of charge Q delivered can be determined by:                      

                                       dQ = i(t) . dt

                  Q = \int\limits^2_0 {i(t)} \, dt = \int\limits^2_0 {6*e^(-2t)} \, dt = 6*\int\limits^2_0 {e^(-2t)} \, dt

- Integrate and evaluate the on the interval:

                   = 6 * (-0.5)*e^-2t = - 3*( 1 / e^4 - 1) = 2.945 C

- The power can be calculated by using v(t) and i(t) as follows:

                 v(t) = 10* di / dt = 10*d(6*e^(-2*t)) /dt

                 v(t) = 10*(-12*e^(-2*t)) = -120*e^-2*t mV

                 P(t) = v(t)*i(t) = (-120*e^-2*t) * 6*e^(-2*t)

                 P(t) = -720*e^(-4t) uW

- The amount of energy W absorbed can be evaluated using P(t) as follows:

                 W = \int\limits^3_0 {P(t)} \, dt = \int\limits^2_0 {-720*e^(-4t)} \, dt = -720*\int\limits^2_0 {e^(-4t)} \, dt

- Integrate and evaluate the on the interval:

                  W = -180*e^-4t = - 180*( 1 / e^12 - 1) = -180uJ
