Why do you think a clothes dryer requires a 220-volt outlet, while a toaster only requires a 110-volt outlet?

A toaster needs a 110-volt outlet because it doesn’t need too much electricity.  Electricity can be converted to heat, and toaster only needs to be heated and nothing else that requires extra electricity while clothes dyer requires higher voltage because it needs more effort and electricity in order to do its function.

Assume you need to design a hydronic system that can deliver 80,000 Btu/hr. What flow rate of water is required if the temperatu
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

At 10°F change in temperature

Mass flowrate = 1.01 kg/s = 2.227 lbm/s

Volumetric flowrate = 1010 m³/s = 35667.8 ft³/s

At 20°F change in temperature

Mass flowrate = 0.505 kg/s = 1.113 lbm/s

Volumetric flowrate = 505 m³/s = 17833.9 ft³/s

Explanation:

80000 btu/hr = 23445.7 W

P = ṁc(ΔT)

ṁ = MASS flowrate

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4182 J/kg.K,

ΔT = change in temperature = 10°F

To convert, a change of 18°F is equal to a change of 10°C

A change of 10°F = 10×10/18 = 5.556°C = 5.556K

P = ṁc(ΔT)

23445.7 = ṁ(4182 × 5.556)

ṁ = 23445.7/(4182 × 5.556)

ṁ = 1.01 kg/s = 2.227 lbm/s

In volumetric flow rate, Q = density × mass flowrate = 1000 × 1.01 = 1010 m³/s = 35667.8 ft³/s

For a change of 20°F,

ΔT = change in temperature = 20°F

To convert, a change of 18°F is equal to a change of 10°C

A change of 20°F = 20×10/18 = 11.1111°C = 11.111K

P = ṁc(ΔT)

23445.7 = ṁ(4182 × 11.111)

ṁ = 23445.7/(4182 × 11.111)

ṁ = 0.505 kg/s = 1.113 lbm/s

In volumetric flow rate, Q = density × mass flowrate = 1000 × 0.505 = 505 m³/s = 17833.9 ft³/s

Hope this Helps!!!

A man is sitting on a chair with wheels. He grabs a 2.1 kg book from the desk and throws
geniusboy [140]

The speed of the man and the chair after the book is thrown is 0.2 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>mass of the book, m₁ = 2.1 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the book, u₁ = 7.2 m/s</em>
  • <em>mass of the man, M = 70 kg</em>
  • <em>mass of the book, m = 9.2 kg</em>

<em />

The total mass of the man and the book is calculated as follows;

m₂ = 70 kg + 9.2 kg

m₂ = 79.2 kg

The speed of the man and the chair after the book is thrown is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m_1 u_1 = m_2u_2\\\\u_2 = \frac{m_1u_1}{m_2} \\\\u_2 = \frac{2.1 \times 7.2}{79.2} \\\\u_2 = 0.2 \ m/s

Thus, the speed of the man and the chair after the book is thrown is 0.2 m/s.

Shelley is in an elevator that is traveling downward and slowing down at a rate of
liraira [26]

Answer:

N = 648.55[N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

∑F =  Forces applied [N]

m = mass = 73.2 [kg]

a = acceleration = 0.950 [m/s²]

Let's assume the direction of the upward forces as positive, just as if the movement of the box is upward the acceleration will be positive.

By performing a summation of forces on the vertical axis we obtain all the required forces and other magnitudes to be determined.

-m*g + N = -m*a\\

where:

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

N = normal force (or weight) measured by the scale = 83.4 [N]

Now replacing:

-(73.2*9.81)+N=-73.2*0.950\\-718.092+N=-69.54\\N = -69.54+718.092\\N = 648.55[N]

The acceleration has a negative sign, this means that the elevator is descending at that very moment.
