Answer:The correct answer is 'The mechanical energy is conserved'.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy of the body is defined a sum of potential energy and kinetic energy possessed by the body in motion. It is the energy associated with position and motion of the body.

Mechanical energy = Potential energy + Kinetic Energy

The principle of Conservation of Mechanical Energy states that the mechanical energy of the body remains constant as long as the forces acting on the body are conservative forces.

From, this we can say that mechanical energy of the bowling ball with mass of 2 kg falling at speed of 4.4 m/s will remain conserved.

6 A simple ideal Rankine cycle with water as the working fluid operates between the pressure limits of 4 MPa in the boiler and 2
makvit [3.9K]

To solve this problem we will start by differentiating the values in each of the states of matter. Subsequently through the thermodynamic tables we will look for the values related to the entropy, enthalpy and respective specific volumes. Through the relationship of Power defined as the product between mass and enthalpy and mass, specific volume and pressure, we will find the energetic values in the two states investigated. We will start defining the states

State 1

T_1 = 700\°C

P_1 = 4 Mpa

From steam table

h_1 =3906.41 KJ/Kg

s_1 = 7.62 KJ/Kg.K

Now

s_1 = s_2 = 7.62 KJ/Kg.K <em>As 1-2 is isentropic</em>

State 2

P_2 = 20 Kpa

s_2 = 7.62 KJ/Kg \cdot K

From steam table

h_2 = 2513.33 KJ/Kg

PART A) The power produced by turbine is the product between the mass and the enthalpy difference, then

Power = m \times (h_1-h_2)

P = (50)(3906.41 - 2513.33)

P = 69654kW

b) Pump Work

State 3

P_3 = 20 Kpa

\upsilon= 0.001 m^3/kg

The Work done by the pump is

W= m\upsilon \Delta P

W = (50)(0.001)(4000-20)

W = 199kJ

How are adhesion and cohesion similar? how are they different?
hichkok12 [17]
<span> they're both properties of water. both involve the "sticking" property of H2O .</span><span> cohesion is "sticking" together (water sticking to water) and adhesios is water</span><span>
</span> "sticking" to something else. They are both important to life processes.

 <span>In chemistry, adhesion refers to the tendency of unlike molecules to bond with one another, while cohesion refers to the attractive force between molecules of the same type. Surface tension, which is an essential property of water, illustrates the relationship between adhesion and cohesion.</span>

What is the voltage drop across the 10.0 ohm resistor?
DochEvi [55]

The voltage across all the resistors is the same i.e 120V

Each element of the parallel circuit has the same voltage applied to it. The total current flowing from the source is equal to the sum of the currents across each path. The electric potential difference (V) across each resistor in a parallel circuit is the same. Ohm's law states that I = V / R applies to the current in a resistor. The current will be lowest where the resistance is highest since the V is the same for each resistor. The currents passing through each resistor in a parallel combination have the same voltage across them because of their different resistance values and the laws of Ohms i., If two or more components are connected in parallel, they will be having same difference of potential (voltage) across their ends Parallel circuits are then used as current dividers.
