Answer:

In chemical weathering, minerals that were stable inside the crust must change to minerals that are stable at Earth's surface. ... Water is the most important agent of chemical weathering. Two other important agents of chemical weathering are carbon dioxide and oxygen.

Assume you need to design a hydronic system that can deliver 80,000 Btu/hr. What flow rate of water is required if the temperatu

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

At 10°F change in temperature

Mass flowrate = 1.01 kg/s = 2.227 lbm/s

Volumetric flowrate = 1010 m³/s = 35667.8 ft³/s

At 20°F change in temperature

Mass flowrate = 0.505 kg/s = 1.113 lbm/s

Volumetric flowrate = 505 m³/s = 17833.9 ft³/s

Explanation:

80000 btu/hr = 23445.7 W

P = ṁc(ΔT)

ṁ = MASS flowrate

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4182 J/kg.K,

ΔT = change in temperature = 10°F

To convert, a change of 18°F is equal to a change of 10°C

A change of 10°F = 10×10/18 = 5.556°C = 5.556K

P = ṁc(ΔT)

23445.7 = ṁ(4182 × 5.556)

ṁ = 23445.7/(4182 × 5.556)

ṁ = 1.01 kg/s = 2.227 lbm/s

In volumetric flow rate, Q = density × mass flowrate = 1000 × 1.01 = 1010 m³/s = 35667.8 ft³/s

For a change of 20°F,

ΔT = change in temperature = 20°F

To convert, a change of 18°F is equal to a change of 10°C

A change of 20°F = 20×10/18 = 11.1111°C = 11.111K

P = ṁc(ΔT)

23445.7 = ṁ(4182 × 11.111)

ṁ = 23445.7/(4182 × 11.111)

ṁ = 0.505 kg/s = 1.113 lbm/s

In volumetric flow rate, Q = density × mass flowrate = 1000 × 0.505 = 505 m³/s = 17833.9 ft³/s

Hope this Helps!!!

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed

Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s

What is 7.832 rounded to the nearest 10th?

Galina-37 [17]

When rounding you look at the number right after the one you want to round. The tenth place is the one right after the decimal. If the number after it is more than five it goes up by one, it it's less than five it stays the same. So since the number after the 8 is a 3 it stays the same.

The answer is 7.8

Two positive charges of same magnitude are separated by some distance if we bring a unit positive charge from one charge to anot

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Increases.

Explanation:

The electric potential increases when the two positive charges of same magnitude bring close to one charge to another because there is repulsive force between them due to same charge and when the two opposite charges move away from each other, the potential energy decreases. When two opposite charges are brought closer together, electric potential energy decreases while on the other hand, when we move opposite charges apart from each other than the work done against the attractive force that leads to an increase in electric potential energy.
