1 micro gram of Strontium-90 has an activity of

0.0000053 terabecquerels (TBq),

Explanation:

Given information denotes that .,one gram of Strontium-90 has an activity of 5.3 terabecquerels (TBq)

the activity of 1 micro gram is

1 gram = 1,000,000 micro gram has activities of 5.3 terabecquerels

therefore 1 micro gram has the activity of (5.3 ÷ 1,000,000 = 0.0000053 )

= $(5.3 ÷ 1,000,000 = 0.0000053 )$

Hence ., 1 micro gram of Strontium-90 has an activity of

0.0000053 terabecquerels (TBq),

Which statement is true about what will happen when the example code runs?1: main PROC2: mov edx,03: mov eax,404: push eax5: cal

saw5 [17]

Answer:

The last option is the correct answer. EDX will equal 40 on line 6

Explanation:

An element is pushed into stack at line no. 04 and call instruction at line no. 05 pushes a return address.

The return addrees is the instruction address followed by call function.In this scenario it is the address of line 6.

Now, the subroutine pops the return address from the stack,i,e. it pops 40 from the stack into edx and then puts the return address back in the stack, and returns.

Therefore, edx contains the value 40 when it returns from subroutine,

Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle. The condenser pressure is 8 kPa, and saturated vapor enters the turbine at

sergeinik [125]

Explanation:

The obtained data from water properties tables are:

Point 1 (condenser exit) @ 8 KPa, saturated fluid

$h_{f} = 173.358 \\h_{fg} = 2402.522$

Point 2 (Pump exit) @ 18 MPa, saturated fluid & @ 4 MPa, saturated fluid

$h_{2a} = 489.752\\h_{2b} = 313.2$

Point 3 (Boiler exit) @ 18 MPa, saturated steam & @ 4 MPa, saturated steam

$h_{3a} = 2701.26 \\s_{3a} = 7.1656\\h_{3b} = 2634.14\\s_{3b} = 7.6876$

Point 4 (Turbine exit) @ 8 KPa, mixed fluid

$x_{a} = 0.8608\\h_{4a} = 2241.448938\\x_{b} = 0.9291\\h_{4b} = 2405.54119$

Calculate mass flow rates

Part a) @ 18 MPa

mass flow

$\frac{100*10^6 }{w_{T} - w_{P}} = \frac{100*10^3 }{(h_{3a} - h_{4a}) - (h_{2a} - h_{f})}\\\\= \frac{100*10^ 3}{(2701.26 - 2241.448938 ) - (489.752 - 173.358)}\\\\= 697.2671076 \frac{kg}{s} = 2510161.587 \frac{kg}{hr}$

Heat transfer rate through boiler

$Q_{in} = mass flow * (h_{3a} - h_{2a})\\Q_{in} = (697.2671076)*(2701.26-489.752)\\\\Q_{in} = 1542011.787 W$

Heat transfer rate through condenser

$Q_{out} = mass flow * (h_{4a} - h_{f})\\Q_{out} = (697.2671076)*(2241.448938-173.358)\\\\Q_{out} = 1442011.787 W$

Thermal Efficiency

$n = \frac{W_{net} }{Q_{in} } = \frac{100*10^3}{1542011.787} \\\\n = 0.06485$

Part b) @ 4 MPa

mass flow

$\frac{100*10^6 }{w_{T} - w_{P}} = \frac{100*10^3 }{(h_{3b} - h_{4b}) - (h_{2b} - h_{f})}\\\\= \frac{100*10^ 3}{(2634.14 - 2405.54119 ) - (313.12 - 173.358)}\\\\= 1125 \frac{kg}{s} = 4052374.235 \frac{kg}{hr}$

Heat transfer rate through boiler

$Q_{in} = mass flow * (h_{3b} - h_{2b})\\Q_{in} = (1125.65951)*(2634.14-313.12)\\\\Q_{in} = 2612678.236 W$

Heat transfer rate through condenser

$Q_{out} = mass flow * (h_{4b} - h_{f})\\Q_{out} = (1125)*(2405.54119-173.358)\\\\Q_{out} = 2511206.089 W$

Thermal Efficiency

$n = \frac{W_{net} }{Q_{in} } = \frac{100*10^3}{1542011.787} \\\\n = 0.038275$

In the formula shown, k is a correction factor for nonideal mixing. In the worst case, k is usually estimated to be:_______. Cpp

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

d. 1.0

Explanation:

Correlation identifies the relationship between two variables. In the given scenario there is strong relation between non ideal mixing. The correction factor can be between -1 to 1 depending on the intensity of the relationship and dependency. The non ideal mixing efficiency is highly dependent on the factors that govern it this means there is high intensity relation so the k is estimated to be nearly 1.

The Reynolds number is the major parameter that relates fluid flow momentum to friction forces. How is the Reynolds number defin

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Reynolds number determines whether a flow is laminar or turbulent flow.

Explanation:

Reynolds number is defined as ratio of inertia force to the viscous force. it is a dimension less number. Reynolds number is used to describe the type of flow in a fluid whether it is laminar flow or turbulent flow. Reynolds number is denoted by Re.

When Reynolds number is in the range of 0 to 2000, the flow is considered to be laminar.

When Reynolds number is in the range of 2000 to 4000, the flow is considered to be transition.

And when Reynolds number is more than 4000, the flow is turbulent flow.

The boundary layer thickness for a fluid is given by

δ = $\frac{5\times x}{\sqrt{Re}}$

where δ is boundary layer thickness

x is distance from the leading edge

Re is Reynolds number

Thus from the above boundary layer thickness equation, we can see that the boundary layer thickness varies inversely to square root of reynolds number.
