The human body gets its energy via the combustion of blood sugar (glucose). if all of the chemical bond energy in 10 g of glucos

e were to be released via combustion and then used to accelerate a 100 kg mass from rest, what speed would the mass attain?

Answer:

speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s

Explanation:

given data

glucose = 10 g

mass = 100 kg

to find out

speed by mass attain

solution

we know glucose have 180 g molecular weight and

that 1 g glucose produce energy = 2816/180 × 10³ J

so here 10 g of glucose produce energy = 1.56 × $10^{5}$ J

so here energy release = 1/2 × mv²

1.56 × $10^{5}$ = 1/2 × (100)v²

v² = 3.12 × 10³

and v = 55.86 m/s

so speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s

A turbojet aircraft flies with a velocity of 800 ft/s at an altitude where the air is at 10 psia and 20 F. The compressor has a

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Pressure = 115.6 psia

Explanation:

Given:

v=800ft/s

Air temperature = 10 psia

Air pressure = 20F

Compression pressure ratio = 8

temperature at turbine inlet = 2200F

Conversion:

1 Btu =775.5 ft lbf, $g_{c}$ = 32.2 lbm.ft/lbf.s², 1Btu/lbm=25037ft²/s²

Air standard assumptions:

$c_{p}$ = 0.0240Btu/lbm.°R, R = 53.34ft.lbf/lbm.°R = 1717.5ft²/s².°R 0.0686Btu/lbm.°R

k= 1.4

Energy balance:

$h_{1} + \frac{v_{1} ^{2} }{2} = h_{a} + \frac{v_{a} ^{2} }{2}\\$

As enthalpy exerts more influence than the kinetic energy inside the engine, kinetic energy of the fluid inside the engine is negligible

hence $v_{a} ^{2} = 0$

$h_{1} + \frac{v_{1} ^{2} }{2} = h_{a} \\h_{1} -h_{a} = - \frac{v_{1} ^{2} }{2} \\ c_{p} (T_{1} -T_{a})= - \frac{v_{1} ^{2} }{2} \\(T_{1} -T_{a}) = - \frac{v_{1} ^{2} }{2c_{p} }\\ T_{a}=T_{1} + \frac{v_{1} ^{2} }{2c_{p} }$

$T_{1}$ = 20+460 = 480°R

$T_{a} =480+ \frac{(800)(800}{2(0.240)(25037}$ = 533.25°R

Pressure at the inlet of compressor at isentropic condition

$P_{a } =P_{1}(\frac{T_{a} }{T_{1} }) ^{k/(k-1)}$

$P_{a}$ = $(10)(\frac{533.25}{480}) ^{1.4/(1.4-1)}$ = 14.45 psia

$P_{2}= 8P_{a} = 8(14.45) = 115.6 psia$

A concrete mix design calls for 6.5 sacks of cement, a water/cement ratio of 0.45, and an air content of 2.5%. 1. Complete the m

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

28.6 kg

Explanation:

The final weight can be calculated from the mixing data and formulae which is given as follows:

cement content = $\frac{water content}{water - cement ratio}$

Computing the parameters and checking the tables gives 28.6 kg.

A rigid tank having 25 m3 volume initially contains air having a density of 1.25 kg/m3, then more air is supplied to the tank fr

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

$\Delta m = 102.25\,kg$

Explanation:

The mass inside the rigid tank before the high pressure stream enters is:

$m_{o} = \rho_{air}\cdot V_{tank}$

$m_{o} = (1.25\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})$

$m_{o} = 31.25\,kg$

The final mass inside the rigid tank is:

$m_{f} = \rho \cdot V_{tank}$

$m_{f} = (5.34\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})$

$m_{f}= 133.5\,kg$

The supplied air mass is:

$\Delta m = m_{f}-m_{o}$

$\Delta m = 133.5\,kg-31.25\,kg$

$\Delta m = 102.25\,kg$
