Answer:

a) C_v = 1.005 KJ/kgK

b) C_v = 1005.000 J/kgC

c) C_v = 0.240 kcal/kgC

d) C_v = 0.240 Btu/lbmF

Explanation:

Given:

- constant-pressure specific heat C_v = 1.005 KJ/kgC

Find C_v in units of:

a) kJ/kg·K

b) J/g·°C

c) kcal/ kg·°C

d) Btu/lbm·°F

Solution:

a) C_v is Specific heat capacity is the quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature per unit mass. Usually, it's the heat in Joules needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of sample 1 Kelvin or 1 degree Celsius. Hence,

C_v = 1.005 KJ/kgK

b)

                           C_v = 1.005 KJ/kgC * ( 1000 J / KJ)

                           C_v = 1005.000 J/kgC

c)

                           C_v = 1.005 KJ/kgC * ( 0.239006 kcal / KJ)

                           C_v = 0.240 kcal/kgC

d)

C_v = 1.005 KJ/kgC * ( 0.947817 Btu / KJ) * ( kg / 2.205 lbm)*(Δ1 C / Δ1.8 F)

C_v = 0.240 Btu/lbmF

How would I find the Voltage across the open circuit
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

  Vab = 80V

Explanation:

The only current flowing in the circuit is supplied by the 100 V source. Its only load is the 40+60 ohm series circuit attached, so the current in that loop is (100V)/(40+60Ω) = 1A. That means V1 = (1A)(60Ω) = 60V.

Vab will be the sum of voltages around the right-side "loop" between terminals 'a' and 'b'. It is (working clockwise from terminal 'b') ...

  Vab = -10V +60V +(0A×10Ω) +30V

  Vab = 80V

A binary geothermal power plant uses geothermal water at 160°C as the heat source. The cycle operates on the simple Rankine cycl
bogdanovich [222]

A binary geothermal power operates on the simple Rankine cycle with isobutane as the working fluid. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine, the net power output, and the thermal efficiency of the cycle are to be determined

Assumptions :

1.  Steady operating conditions exist.

2.  Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.

Properties:  The specific heat of geothermal water ( c_{geo}[) is taken to be 4.18 kJ/kg.ºC.  

Analysis (a) We need properties of isobutane, we can obtain the properties from EES.

a. Turbine

PP_{3} = 3.25mPa = (3.25*1000) kPa\\= 3250kPa\\from the EES TABLE\\h_{3} = 761.54 kJ/kg\\s_{3} = 2.5457 kJ/kg\\P_{4} = 410kPa\\\\s_{4} = s_{3} \\h_{4s} = 470.40kJ/kg\\\\T_{4} = 179.5^{0} C\\\\h_{4} = 689.74 kJ/KG\\\\ The  isentropic  efficiency, n_{T} = \frac{h_{3}-h_{4}  }{h_{3}- h_{4s} }

==\frac{761.54-689.74}{761.54-670.40} \\=\frac{71.8}{91.14} \\=0.788

b. Pump

h_{1} = h_{f} @ 410kPa = 273.01kJ/kg\\v_{1} = v_{f} @ 410kPa = 0.001842 m^{3}/kgw_{p,in} =  \frac{v_{1}(P_{2}-P_{1})   }{n_{p} } \\\\= \frac{0.01842(3250-410)}{0.9} \\\\ =5.81kJ/kg\\h_{2} =h_{1} + w_{p,in}\\          = 273.01+5.81\\           = 278.82 kJ/kg\\\\w_{T,out} = m^{.}  (h_{3} -h_{4} )\\=(305.6)(761.54-689.74)\\=305.6(71.8)\\=21,942kW\\\\

W^{.} _ {P,in} = m^{.} (h_{2} -h_{1}) \\=m^{.}  w_{p,in \\=305.6(5.81)\\\\=1,777kW\\W^{.}  _{net} = W^{.} _{T, out} - W^{.}  _{P,in} \\= 21,942-1,777\\=20,166 kW\\\\HEAT EXCHANGER\\\\Q_{in} = m^{.} _{geo} c_{geo} (T_{in-T_{out} } )\\=555.9(4.18)(160-90)\\=162.656kW\\

c. The thermal efficiency of the cycle  n_{th}  =\frac{W^{.} _{net} }{Q^{._{in} } } \\\\= \frac{20,166}{162,656} \\=0.124\\=12.4%

In a home, air infiltrates from the outside through cracks around doors and windows. Consider a residence where the total length
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Time period  = 41654.08 s

Explanation:

Given data:

Internal volume is 210 m^3

Rate of air infiltration  9.4 \times 10^{-5} kg/s

length of cracks 62 m

air density = 1.186 kg/m^3

Total rate of air infiltration = 9.4\times 10^{-5} \times 62 = 582.8\times 10{-5} kg/s

total volume of air  infiltration= \frac{582.8\times 10{-5}}{1.156} = 5.04\times 10^{-3} m^3/s

Time period = \frac{210}{5.04\times 10^{-3}} = 41654.08 s

Gas chromatography separates compounds depending on their__________ . Benzene, m-xylene, and toluene have similar_________ , the
amm1812

Answer and Explanation:

Gas chromatography separates compounds depending on their **polarity and volatility**. Benzene, m-xylene, and toluene have similar **polarities**, therefore, the main basis for separation is **volatility**. The more volatile a component the ** higher its vapor pressure**, hence the more time it spends in the **gaseous mobile phase**, giving it a **shorter** retention time. Therefore, components of a liquid mixture will elute in order of **increasing boiling points/decreasing volatilities/increasing polarities with the stationary phase**.
