seraphim [82]

Answer:

change in internal energy 3.62*10^5 J kg^{-1}

change in enthalapy  5.07*10^5 J kg^{-1}

change in entropy 382.79 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}

Explanation:

adiabatic constant \gamma =1.4

specific heat is given as =\frac{\gamma R}{\gamma -1}

gas constant =287 J⋅kg−1⋅K−1

Cp = \frac{1.4*287}{1.4-1} = 1004.5 Jkg^{-1} k^{-1}

specific heat at constant volume

Cv = \frac{R}{\gamma -1} = \frac{287}{1.4-1} = 717.5 Jkg^{-1} k^{-1}

change in internal energy = Cv(T_2 -T_1)

                            \Delta U = 717.5 (800-295)  = 3.62*10^5 J kg^{-1}

change in enthalapy \Delta H = Cp(T_2 -T_1)

                                 \Delta H = 1004.5*(800-295) = 5.07*10^5 J kg^{-1}

change in entropy

\Delta S =Cp ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1}) -R*ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})

\Delta S =1004.5 ln(\frac{800}{295}) -287*ln(\frac{8.74*10^5}{1.01*10^5})

\Delta S = 382.79 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}

A wheel free to rotate about its axis that is not frictionless is initially at rest. A constant external torque of +46 N·m is ap
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let Torque due to friction be

F  

Net torque

= 46 - F

Angular impulse = change in angular momentum

=(  46 - F ) x 17  = I X 580

When external torque is removed , only friction creates torque reducing its speed to zero in 120 s so

Angular impulse = change in angular momentum

F  x 120 = I X 580

(  46 - F ) x 17 = F  x 120

137 F = 46 x 17

F = 5.7 Nm

b )

Putting this value in first equation

5.7 x 120 = I x 580

I = 1.18 kg m²

A 51-kg woman runs up a vertical flight of stairs in 5.0 s. Her net upward displacement is 5.0 m. Approximately, what average po
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The average power the woman exerts is 0.5 kW

Explanation:

We note that power, P = The rate at which work is done = Work/Time

Work = Energy

The total work done is the potential energy gained which is the energy due to vertical displacement

Given that the vertical displacement = 5.0 m, we have

Total work done = Potential energy gained = Mass, m × Acceleration due to gravity, g × Vertical height, h

m = 51 kg

g = Constant = 9.81 m/s²

h = 5.0 m

Also, time, t = 5.0 s

Total work done = 51 kg × 9.81 m/s²× 5 m = 2501.55 kg·m²/s² = 2501.55 J

P = 2501.55 J/(5 s) = 500.31 J/s = 500.31 W ≈ 500 W = 0.5 kW.
