A refrigerator is used to cool water from 23°C to 5°C in a continuous manner. The heat rejected in the condenser is 570 kJ/min a

nd the power is 2.65 kW. Determine the rate at which water is cooled in L/min and the COP of the refrigerator. The specific heat of water is 4.18 kJ/kg·°C and its density is 1 kg/L.

Answer: Q=5.46 L/s

COP=2.58

Explanation:

Given that

Cp = 4.18 kJ/(kg.C

density  = 1 kg/L

Heat rejected Qr= 570 kJ/min

Power in put W= 2.65 KW

From first law of thermodynamics

U = W+ q

q = Heat absorbed

U = internal energy

W = workdone

U = 570 kJ/min  = 9.5 KW

9.5 = 2.65 + q

q = 6.85 KW

COP = q/W

COP = 6.58 / 2.65

COP=2.58

Lets take volume flow rate is Q

So mass flow rate of water m = ρ Q

q = m Cp ΔT

6.85 = 1 x Q x 4.18 ( 23-5)

Q=0.091 L/min

Q=5.46 L/s

Calculate the speed of a gamma ray with a frequency of 3.0 x 10^19 Hz and a wavelength of 1.0 x 10^-11 m.
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of gamma ray = 3 x 10¹⁹ Hz

Wavelength of gamma rays = 1 x 10⁻¹¹ meter

Find:

Speed of gamma rays

Computation:

Velocity = Frequency x wavelength

Speed of gamma rays = Frequency of gamma ray x Wavelength of gamma rays

Speed of gamma rays = [3 x 10¹⁹][1 x 10⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10¹⁹⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10⁸]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

A person stands at the base of a hill that is a straight incline making an angle φ with the horizontal. For a given initial spee
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

θ = sin⁻¹\sqrt{2gd}

Explanation:

From one of the equations of motion, v² = u² + 2as.......... equation 1

Since the object thrown was moving against gravity, then the acceleration, a would change to -g and the initial velocity u would change to V₀ sin θ because the object is travelling at angle of θ to the horizontal. By inputting all these parameter into equation 1, we would arrive at:

v² = (u sin θ)² - 2gd

(u sin θ)² = 2gd

d = (u sin θ)²/2g

sin² θ = 2gd

sin θ = \sqrt{2gd}

θ = sin⁻¹ \sqrt{2gd}
