Answer:

the equilibrium temperature Te = 19.9°C

Explanation:

Given;

specific heat for copper Cc is 390 J/kg⋅°C

for aluminun Ca is 900 J/kg⋅°C,

for water Cw is 4186 J/kg⋅°C

Mass of copper Mc= 265 g = 0.265kg

Temperature of copper Tc = 235°C

Mass of aluminium Ma = 135g = 0.135 kg

Temperature of aluminium Ta = 14.0°C

Mass of water Mw= 865 g = 0.865kg

Temperature of water Tw = 14.0°C

The equilibrium temperature can be derived by;

Te = (MaCaTa + McCcTc + MwCwTw)/(MaCa + McCc+ MwTw)

Substituting the values;

Te = ( 0.135×900×14 + 0.265×390×235 + 0.865×4186×14)/(0.135×900 + 0.265×390 + 0.865×4186)

Te = 19.939°C

Te = 19.9°C

A power supply has an open-circuit voltage of 40.0 V and an internal resistance of 2.00 V. It is used to charge two storage batt

Natali [406]

Complete Question

A power supply has an open-circuit voltage of 40.0 V and an internal resistance of 2.00 $\Omega$ . It is used to charge two storage batteries connected in series, each having an emf of 6.00 V and internal resistance of 0.300 $\Omega$ . If the charging current is to be 4.00 A, (a) what additional resistance should be added in series? At what rate does the internal energy increase in (b) the supply, (c) in the batteries, and (d) in the added series resistance? (e) At what rate does the chemical energy increase in the batteries?

Answer:

a

The additional resistance is $R_z = 4.4 \Omega$

b

The rate at which internal energy increase at the supply is $Z_1 = 32 W$

c

The rate at which internal energy increase in the battery is $Z_1 = 32 W$

d

The rate at which internal energy increase in the added series resistance is $Z_3 = 70.4 W$

e

the increase rate of the chemically energy in the battery is $C = 48 W$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The open circuit voltage is $V = 40.0V$

The internal resistance is $R = 2 \Omega$

The emf of each battery is $e = 6.00 V$

The internal resistance of the battery is $r = 0.300V$

The charging current is $I = 4.00 \ A$

Let assume the the additional resistance to to added to the circuit is $R_z$

So this implies that

The total resistance in the circuit is

$R_T = R + 2r +R_z$

Substituting values

$R_T = 2.6 +R_z$

And the difference in potential in the circuit is

$E = V -2e$

=> $E = 40 - (2 * 6)$

$E = 28 V$

Now according to ohm's law

$I = \frac{E}{R_T}$

Substituting values

$4 = \frac{28}{R_z + 2.6}$

Making $R_z$ the subject of the formula

So $R_z = \frac{28 - 10.4}{4}$

$R_z = 4.4 \Omega$

The increase rate of internal energy at the supply is mathematically represented as

$Z_1 = I^2 R$

Substituting values

$Z_1 = 4^2 * 2$

$Z_1 = 32 W$

The increase rate of internal energy at the batteries is mathematically represented as

$Z_2 = I^2 r$

Substituting values

$Z_2 = 4^2 * 2 * 0.3$

$Z_2 = 9.6 \ W$

The increase rate of internal energy at the added series resistance is mathematically represented as

$Z_3 = I^2 R_z$

Substituting values

$Z_3 = 4^2 * 4.4$

$Z_3 = 70.4 W$

Generally the increase rate of the chemically energy in the battery is mathematically represented as

$C = 2 * e * I$

Substituting values

$C = 2 * 6 * 4$

$C = 48 W$

svetoff [14.1K]

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied unbalanced force. The mathematical expression is given by:

$F=\dfrac{d(mv)}{dt}$

Where

F is the applied force

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity with which it is moving

$F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

Momentum of a particle is given by the product of mass and velocity as :

$p=mv$

Hence, this is the required solution.
