Which has more KE a baseball traveling at 50 mph or a baseball travelling at 100 mph? Explain.

Trava [24]

A baseball traveling at 100 mph has more kinetic energy than a baseball traveling at 50 mph because the kinetic energy = 1/2 x mass x velocity. Since the baseballs should have the same mass, the velocity is what will determine which ball has more kinetic energy. Since the 100 mph baseball has a higher velocity than the 50 mph baseball, it has more kinetic energy.

Use the work—energy theorem to solve each of these problems. You can use Newton's laws to check your answers. Neglect air resist

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

a) It is moving at $43.15\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ when reaches the ground.

b) It is moving at $101.44\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ when reaches the ground.

Explanation:

Work energy theorem states that the total work on a body is equal its change in kinetic energy, this is:

$W=K_f-K_i$ (1)

with W the total work, Ki the initial kinetic energy and Kf the final kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is defined as:

$K=\frac{mv^2}{2}$ (2)

with m the mass and v the velocity.

Using (2) on (1):

$W=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_i^2}{2}$ (3)

In both cases the total work while the objects are in the air is the work gravity field does on them. Work is force times the displacement, so in our case is weight (w=mg) of the object times displacement (d):

$W=Fd=wd=mgd$ (4)

Using (4) on (3):

$mgd=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_i^2}{2}$ (5)

That's the equation we're going to use on a) and b).

a) Because the branch started form rest initial velocity (vi) is equal zero, using this and solving (5) for final velocity:

$v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2mgd}{m}}=\sqrt{2gd}=\sqrt{2*9.8*95}$

$v_f=43.15\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

b) In this case the final velocity of the boulder is instantly zero when it reaches its maximum height, another important thing to note is that in this case work is negative because weight is opposing boulder movement, so we should use -mgd:

$-mgd=-\frac{mv_i^2}{2}$

Solving for initial velocity (when the boulder left the volcano):

$v_i=\sqrt{\frac{2mgd}{m}}=\sqrt{2gd}=\sqrt{2*9.8*525}$

$v_i=101.44 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

g Warm water in a geothermal heating system enters the pipe of a radiator at 20 psia and 119oF with a flow rate of 235 cfm (ft3/

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Notice that the condenser section includes both the hot water and space heater and station (3) is specified as being in the Quality region. Assume that 50°C is a reasonable maximum hot water temperature for home usage, thus at a high pressure of 1.6 MPa, the maximum power available for hot water heating will occur when the refrigerant at station (3) reaches the saturated liquid state. (Quick Quiz: justify this statement). Assume also that the refrigerant at station (4) reaches a subcooled liquid temperature of 20°C while heating the air.

Using the conditions shown on the diagram and assuming that station (3) is at the saturated liquid state

a) On the P-h diagram provided below carefully plot the five processes of the heat pump together with the following constant temperature lines: 50°C (hot water), 13°C (ground loop), and -10°C (outside air temperature)

b) Using the R134a property tables determine the enthalpies at all five stations and verify and indicate their values on the P-h diagram.

c) Determine the mass flow rate of the refrigerant R134a. [0.0127 kg/s]

d) Determine the power absorbed by the hot water heater [2.0 kW] and that absorbed by the space heater [0.72 kW].

e) Determine the time taken for 100 liters of water at an initial temperature of 20°C to reach the required hot water temperature of 50°C [105 minutes].

f) Determine the Coefficient of Performance of the hot water heater [COPHW = 4.0] (defined as the heat absorbed by the hot water divided by the work done on the compressor)

g) Determine the Coefficient of Performance of the heat pump [COPHP = 5.4] (defined as the total heat rejected by the refrigerant in the hot water and space heaters divided by the work done on the compressor)

h) What changes would be required of the system parameters if no geothermal water loop was used, and the evaporator was required to absorb its heat from the outside air at -10°C. Discuss the advantages of the geothermal heat pump system over other means of space and water heating
