two springs have different spring constants how could you identify the spring with the greater spring constant value

Steam is to be condensed on the shell side of a heat exchanger at 150 oF. Cooling water enters the tubes at 60 oF at a rate of 4

zalisa [80]

Answer:

a. 572Btu/s

b.0.1483Btu/s.R

Explanation:

a.Assume a steady state operation, KE and PE are both neglected and fluids properties are constant.

From table A-3E, the specific heat of water is $c_p=1.0\ Btu/lbm.F$ , and the steam properties as, A-4E:

$h_{fg}=1007.8Btu/lbm, s_{fg}=1.6529Btu/lbm.R$

Using the energy balance for the system:

$\dot E_{in}-\dot E_{out}=\bigtriangleup \dot E_{sys}=0\\\\\dot E_{in}=\dot E_{out}\\\\\dot Q_{in}+\dot m_{cw}h_1=\dot m_{cw}h_2\\\\\dot Q_{in}=\dot m_{cw}c_p(T_{out}-T_{in})\\\\\dot Q_{in}=44\times 1.0\times (73-60)=572\ Btu/s$

Hence, the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger is 572Btu/s

b. Heat gained by the water is equal to the heat lost by the condensing steam.

-The rate of steam condensation is expressed as:

$\dot m_{steam}=\frac{\dot Q}{h_{fg}}\\\\\dot m_{steam}=\frac{572}{1007.8}=0.5676lbm/s$

Entropy generation in the heat exchanger could be defined using the entropy balance on the system:

$\dot S_{in}-\dot S_{out}+\dot S_{gen}=\bigtriangleup \dot S_{sys}\\\\\dot m_1s_1+\dot m_3s_3-\dot m_2s_2-\dot m_4s_4+\dot S_{gen}=0\\\\\dot m_ws_1+\dot m_ss_3-\dot m_ws_2-\dot m_ss_4+\dot S_{gen}=0\\\\\dot S_{gen}=\dot m_w(s_2-s_1)+\dot m_s(s_4-s_3)\\\\\dot S_{gen}=\dot m c_p \ In(\frac{T_2}{T_1})-\dot m_ss_{fg}\\\\\\\dot S_{gen}=4.4\times 1.0\times \ In( {73+460)/(60+460)}-0.5676\times 1.6529\\\\=0.1483\ Btu/s.R$

Hence,the rate of entropy generation in the heat exchanger. is 0.1483Btu/s.R

If an airplane undergoes a displace-

PIT_PIT [208]

The formula for velocity is distance divided by time, or d/t. The distance is 500 km and the time is 1.2 hours. 500/1.2 is 416.6 km/hr.

What would happen if you place 2 Plane Mirrors parallel to each other?

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

No image will be observed.

Explanation:

Images that are created by mirrors are virtual images. This virtual image can only be seen by an observer. In this case, an infinite number of images or no image will be created here as both will be reflecting their own images. Light will continuously bounce back and forth reflecting the same image.

For each of the following pairs of gas properties, describe the relationship between the properties, describe a simple system th

asambeis [7]

Answer:

For each pair of properties of a gas, the relationships are (see the explanation for the description of the systems):

(a) Volume and pressure: The relationship between them is inversely proportional.
(b) Pressure and temperature: They have a directly proportional relationship.
(c) Volume and temperature: They relationship is directly proportional.
(d) Number of gas particles and pressure: The relationship is directly proportional between them.

Explanation:

1. Volume and pressure (temperature and amount of particles constant):

They have an inversely proportional relationship, because if volume is reduced, the pressure increases, or if the volume increases, the pressure decreases.

A simple system could be one similar to the one used by Boyle to test this relationship:

Seal the short extreme of a translucent J tube. It could be glass or plastic.
Put some water on it. As much as needed to have both sides of the tube filled.
Using a syringe, and a flexible small tube,inject a determined volume of air in the bottom in a way that the bubble is trapped in the seal side of the J tube.
Then if more water is added to the tube, it will increase the pressure (from the pressure definition is possible to in the trapped air, and is possible to measure the compression of the air bubble. The same is possible if using the syringe, and the flexible tube, some water is removed, and the increasing of volume could be observed.

2. Pressure and temperature (volume and amount of particles of the gas remains constant)

They have a directly proportional relationship, because if temperature is reduced, the pressure decreases, or if the temperature increases, the pressure would increase, also.

A simple system to show this is two cans of soda.

The can is rigid, so the volume is always constant, and the amount of gas inside the soda is the same.
Put one can under the sun, and the other in the cooler.
After a while, take it out the can in the cooler, and open both cans.
The one that was under the sun will "explode", in other words, it will liberate a lot of foam of gas and soda, meaning that the pressure inside the can was high.
The one that was in te cooler, won't liberate any foam, meaning that the pressure was low.

3. Volume and temperature (pressure and amount of particles of the gas remains constant)

They have a directly proportional relationship, because if temperature is reduced, the pressure decreases, or if the temperature increases, the pressure will increase, also.

A simple system to show this is a party balloon.

Fill the party balloon with some air, not enough to be close to explode, but enough to have it of a medium size. Tie the filling hole of the balloon.

The air inside the balloon would be at the same pressure than the atmosphere around it, so always will be at this pressure, and the close hole ensure that it has always the same amount of air inside.

Now is possible to use some heat source, for example as a hair dryer to increase the temperature of the balloon and its contents. The size of the balloon will increase. Then using water is possible to cool it down and watch how its size decreases.

4. Number of gas particles and pressure (volume and temperature of gas remains constant)

They have a directly proportional relationship, because if the amount of gas particles is reduced, the pressure decreases, or if quantity of gas particles increases, the pressure will increase, also.

A simple system to show this would be a bicycle tire:

The tire is rigid, so its volume is essentially constant, and the temperature would remains the same if not moving or driving it.

Using a tire gauge, it is possible to know the manometric pressure inside the tire, that is the difference between the actual pressure inside the tire and the atmospheric pressure.

Then each time that using an air pump some air is injected in the tire, it si possible to check the pressure inside it using the gauge, and observe how is increasing.

Also, is possible to open the valve, to allow some air to escape, then use the gauge to observe how the pressure decreases.

The orbits of most comets

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B

Comets are the frozen snowball that is made of different gases and which rotates around the sun.

Comets are generally icy but when comets come near to the sum they get warm and release gasses which can be seen from the earth.

Comet produces a visible atmosphere or coma.

examples of comets are Halley's Comet, Comet Encke.

The orbit of comets is entirely beyond the orbit of Neptune.
