Answer:

Q = 2450 KJ/day

Explanation:

We are given;

The amount of moisture produced by a person while taking shower; m = 0.25 kg/person

Total number of persons in the family; N = 4

Latent heat of vaporization of water:

h_fg = 2450 KJ/kg

Since amount of moisture per person is 0.25kg per day,thus for 4 people, total mass; m_total = 4 x 0.25 = 1 kg per day

The formula for the amount of latent heat added to the space due to shower per day, is given as;

Q = m_total x h_fg

Plugging in the relevant values;

Q = 1 x 2450 = 2450 KJ/day

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Refrigerant R-134a is to be cooled by waterin a condenser.The refrigerant enters thecondenser with a mass flow rate of 6 kg/minat 1 MPa and 70 C and exits at 35 C. The cool-ing water enters at 300 kPa and 15 C andleaves at 25 C. Neglecting pressure drops,determine a) the required mass flow rate ofthe cooling water, and b) the heat transferrate from the refrigerant to the water.SolutionFirst consider the condenser as the control volume. The process is steady,adiabatic and no work is done. Thus over any time intervalΔt,ΔEΔt=0and thusXin˙E=Xout˙Ewhere˙E=˙m h+12V2+gz650:351 Thermodynamics·Prof. Doyle Knight37

A brass alloy is known to have a yield strength of 275 MPa (40,000 psi), a tensile strength of 380 MPa (55,000 psi), and an elas
zlopas [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of the load can be computed  because it is mandatory in order to produce the change in length ( elongation )

Explanation:

Yield strength = 275 Mpa

Tensile strength = 380 Mpa

elastic modulus = 103 GPa

The magnitude of the load can be computed  because it is mandatory in order to produce the change in length ( elongation ) .

Given that the yield strength, elastic modulus and strain that is experienced by the test spectrum are given

strain = yield strength / elastic modulus

          = 0.0027
