It results from the vibration of particles. ... Temperature increases the speed of sound wave as particles at higher temperatures tend to possess more energy and thus they will vibrate faster and thus the sound wave will travel faster.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

$386.2^{\circ}F$

Explanation:

We are given that

$P_1=200lbf/in^2$

$P_2=60lbf/in^2$

$v_1=200ft/s$

$v_2=1700ft/s$

$T_1=500^{\circ}F$

$Q=0$

$C_p=1BTU/lb^{\circ}F$

We have to find the exit temperature.

By steady energy flow equation

$h_1+v^2_1+Q=h_2+v^2_2$

$C_pT_1+\frac{P^2_1}{25037}+Q=C_pT_2+\frac{P^2_2}{25037}$

$1BTU/lb=25037ft^2/s^2$

Substitute the values

$1\times 500+\frac{(200)^2}{25037}+0=1\times T_2+\frac{(1700)^2}{25037}$

$500+1.598=T_2+115.4$

$T_2=500+1.598-115.4$

$T_2=386.2^{\circ}F$

Answer:

FB = 0.187 N

Explanation:

To find the magnetic force FB in the wire you use the following formula:

$|\vec{F_B}|=ILBsin\theta\\\\L=0.25m\\\\|\vec{B}|=\sqrt{(0.3y)^2+(0.4y)^2}=0.5y \ T$

the angle between B and L is given by:

$\vec{L}\cdot\vec{B}=LBcos\theta\\\\\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{\vec{L}\cdot\vec{B}}{LB})=cos^{-1}(\frac{0*0.3y+0.25*0.4y}{0.25*0.5y})=36.86\°$

Due to B depends on "y" you take into account the contribution of each element dy of the wire to the magnitude of the magnetic force. Thus, you have to integrate the following expression:

$|\vec{F_B}|=Isin\theta\int_0^{0.25}B(y)dy=Isin\theta\int_0^{0.25}(0.5y)dy\\\\|\vec{F_B}|=(2.0*10^{-3}A)(sin36.86\°)(0.5T)[\frac{0.25^2}{2}m]=0.187\ N$
