A 2.5kg metal bar is quenched from 800°C by immersion in a closed insulated tank of water containing 50 litres of water initiall

y at 20°C. Assuming that both water and the metal bar can be treated as incompressible, determine the final temperature of the metal bar and the water, whose specific heat capacities are 0.500 and 4.18 kJ/kg.K respectively, and hence, using Gibbs' equation, calculate the amount of entropy produced by the quenching process.

Answer:

The amount of entropy produced by the quenching process is 0.303 kJ/K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.5 kg

Temperature = 800°C

The mass of 50 L of water is 50 kg

Temperature = 20°C

Energy = 4.18 kJ/kg.K

If the final temperature of the metal bar and water is T₀°C, then

The heat lost by the bar = heat gained by water

m_{w}C_{w}(T_{0}-T)=m_{B}c_{B}(T-T_{0})

Put the value into the formula

4.18\times50(T-20)=0.5\times2.5(80-T)

209T-4180=1000-1.25T

210.25T=5180

T=\dfrac{5180}{210.25}

T=24.64^{\circ}C

Now, heat exchange between the systems

\Delta Q=m_{w}C_{w}(T-20)

\Delta Q=4.18\times50(24.64-20)

\Delta Q=969.76\ kJ

We need to calculate the entropy

Using formula of entropy

S=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{\dfrac{T+T_{0}}{2}+T'}-\dfrac{\Delta Q}{\dfrac{T+T_{0}}{2}+T'}

Where, T' = 273.15\ K

Put the value into the formula

S=\dfrac{969.76}{\dfrac{20+24.64}{2}+273.15}}-\dfrac{969.76}{\dfrac{80+24.64}{2}+273.15}

S=3.28209293668-2.97956800934

S=0.303\ kJ/K

Hence, The amount of entropy produced by the quenching process is 0.303 kJ/K.

A certain digital camera having a lens with focal length 7.50 cmcm focuses on an object 1.70 mm tall that is 4.70 mm from the le
Crank

Answer:

a. 7.62cm

b. Real and inverted

c. 2.76 cm

d. 3450

Explanation:

We proceed as follows;

a. the lens equation that relates the object distance to the image distance with the focal length is given as follows;

1/f = 1/p + 1/q

making q the subject of the formula;

q = pf/p-f

From the question;

p = 4.70m

f = 7.5cm = 0.075m

Substituting these, we have ;

q = (4.7)(0.075)/(4.7-0.075) = 0.3525/4.625 = 0.0762 = 7.62 cm

b. The image is real and inverted since the image distance is positive

c. We want to calculate how tall the image is

Mathematically;

h1 = (q/p)h0

h1 = (7.62/4.70)* 1.7

h1 = 2.76 cm

d. We want to calculate the number of pixels that fit into this image

Mathematically:

n = h1/8 micro meter

n = 2.76cm/8 micro meter = 2.76 * 10^-2/8 * 10^-6 = 3450
