Methane (chemical formula Ch4), an important greenhouse gas, has a nearly constant mixing ratio throughout the lower atmosphere

(0 - 15 km) of 2.1 ppm.
a. Using your knowledge of how the total pressure varies as a function of altitude, sketch and describe the vertical profile of the CH4 number density (i.e. a plot of altitude from 0-15 km on the y-axis and number density on the x-axis, describe the basic function). For this purpose, assume a constant atmospheric temperature of 250 K

Go online and search for information about companies that have been harmed or bankrupted by a disaster. Choose one such company
tester [92]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

In recent times and in the past, so many companies have been dealt with or bankrupted by disaster.

This disasters are in the form of floods, earthquake and tsunami. This has led to many companies across world to have faced problem. As Japan is particularly vulnerable to natural disaster because of its climate and topography let me take example of japan .The tsunami that struck Japan in March this year which has lead to a debt of worth nearly $8 billion due to failed businesses. A total of 341 firms in japan with a combined 6,376 employees has got affected by this disaster.

One of company that hit hard by these disaster is Toyota. Toyota is a Japanese multinational automotive manufacturer headquartered in Toyota, Aichi, Japan. Actually due to flood in thailand toyota has faced a big loss. As flood hit thailand the parts of vehicle which is produced in thailand has stopped . It leads to interruption in the supply chain of some Thailand made components.

This lead to suspension of production as thai made component was unavailable.It has been reported until the situation of thailand will be good toyota plants in Indiana, Kentucky and Ontario, Canada, will be shut down . And production rate at plant in North America will get slow down .This flood leads to a loss of 37500 vehicles .Due to this reason toyota was forced to open its plants in Southeast asian country just to enhance the production rate.Sales of vehicle has also got reduced in thailand . Hence toyota faced a total loss of 1.6 billion dollar.

In Nigeria, due to the insurgency of the Boko Haram, many companies have entirely stopped operations in some regions, this harsh realities leads to massive loss of revenue for such companies.

Air expands through a turbine from 10 bar, 900 K to 1 bar, 500 K. The inlet velocity is small compared to the exit velocity of 1
Elis [28]

Answer:

- the mass flow rate of air is 7.53 kg/s

- the exit area is 0.108 m²

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

lets take a look at the steady state energy equation;

m" = W"_{cv / [ (h₁ - h₂ ) -\frac{V_2^2}{2} ]

Now at;

T₁ = 900K, h₁ = 932.93 k³/kg

T₂ = 500 K, h₂ = 503.02 k³/kg

so we substitute, in our given values

m" = [ 3200 kW × \frac{1\frac{k^3}{s} }{1kW} ] / [ (932.93 - 503.02  )k³/kg  -\frac{100^2\frac{m^2}{s^2} }{2}|\frac{ln}{kg\frac{m}{s^2} }||\frac{1kJ}{10^3N-m}| ]

m" = 7.53 kg/s

Therefore, the mass flow rate of air is 7.53 kg/s

now, Exit area A₂ = v₂m" / V₂

we know that; pv = RT

so

A₂ = RT₂m" / P₂V₂

so we substitute

A₂ = {[ (\frac{8.314}{28.97}\frac{k^3}{kg.K})×500 K×(7.54 kg/s) ] / [(1 bar)(100 m/s )]} |\frac{1 bar}{10N/m^2}||10^3N.m/1k^3

A₂ = 0.108 m²

Therefore, the exit area is 0.108 m²

What is a thermal reservoir?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thermal reservoir:

   It is the body which have infinite amount of heat capacity and store large amount of heat.The temperature of thermal reservoir is constant and does not change with time.The temperature of thermal reservoir is not change even heat is going out from reservoir or heat going inside the reservoir.The temperature of thermal reservoir remains constant and does not depend on the surroundings.
