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.

The tops of the towers of the Golden Gate Bridge in San franciscoo , are 227 m above the water. Suppose a worker drops a 655 g w
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is 1425.11 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the wrench is, m=655\ g=0.655\ kg

Height of fall is, h=227\ m

Force of resistance is, F=0.141\ N

Now, the total energy at the top is equal to the potential energy of the wrench at the top since the kinetic energy at the top is 0.

Now, potential energy at the top is given as:

U=mgh\\U=0.655\times 9.8\times 227\\U=1457.113\ J

Now, the potential energy at the top is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom and some energy is wasted in overcoming the resistance force by air.

Potential Energy = Kinetic energy + Energy to overcome resistance.

⇒ Kinetic energy = Potential Energy - Energy to overcome resistance.

Energy to overcome resistance force is the work done by the wrench against the resistance force and is given as:

W_{res}=Fh=0.141\times 227=32.007\ J

Therefore, Kinetic energy at the bottom is given as:

K=U-W_{res}\\\\K=1457.113\ J - 32.007\ J\\\\K=1425.106\approx1425.11\ J

Hence, the kinetic energy of the wrench be when it hits the water is 1425.11 J.

A jet airliner moving initially at 889 mph
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

1500 mph

Explanation:

Take east to be +x and north to be +y.

The x component of the velocity is:

vₓ = 889 cos 0° + 830 cos 59°

vₓ = 1316.5 mph

The y component of the velocity is:

vᵧ = 889 sin 0° + 830 sin 59°

vᵧ = 711.4 mph

The speed is found with Pythagorean theorem:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v² = (1316.5 mph)² + (711.4 mph)²

v = 1496 mph

Rounded to two significant figures, the jet's speed relative to the ground is 1500 mph.

Which of the following best describes the human population from early times to the present?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.

Explanation:

From the figure attached we see the evolution of the human population since early times (1050).

We see that from 1050 until 1750-1850 we have an increase slowly with a low value for the increase per year.

But after these years (1750-1850) we see a considerable increase of the population, like an exponential model.

So then we can conclude in general terms this:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.
