Starting from rest, a 6.79 kg block slides 2.82 m down a rough 20.7 ◦ incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the b

lock and the incline is 0.425. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Find the work done by the force of gravity. Answer in units of J.

Answer:

23.52092 J

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = 6.79 kg

s = Sliding distance = 2.82 m

\theta = Angle of slide = 20.7°

\mu = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.425

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Work done by the force of gravity is given by

W=mgsin\theta\\\Rightarrow W=6.79\times 9.8\times sin20.7\\\Rightarrow W=23.52092\ J

The work done by the force of gravity is 23.52092 J

igomit [66]

Suppose car A is moving with a velocity Va, and car b with a velocity Vb,

According the principle of conservation of momentum:

Va x Ma + Vb x Mb = (Ma + Mb) V

V = (Va x Ma + Vb x Mb)/(Ma +Mb)

V = speed of cars after coupling

V = (Va x 20 mg + Vb x  15 mg)/(20 mg + 15 mg)

Put in the values of Va and Vb, and get the V

Steam enters a counterflow heat exchanger operating at steady state at 0.07 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 2431.6 kJ/kg and exi
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Steam Mass rate, ms = 1.5 kg/min

= 1.5 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec

= 0.025 kg/s

Air Mass rate, ma = 100 kg/min

= 100 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec

= 1.67 kg/s

A.

Extracting the specific enthalpy and temperature values from property table of “Saturated water – Pressure table” which corresponds to temperature at 0.07 MPa.

xf, quality = 0.9.

Tsat = 89.9°C

hf = 376.57 kJ/kg

hfg = 2283.38 kJ/kg

Using the equation for specific enthalpy,

hi = hf + (hfg × xf)

= 376.57 + (2283.38 × 0.9)

= 2431.552 kJ/kg

The specific enthalpy of the outlet, h2 = hf

= 376.57 kJ/kg

B.

Rate of enthalpy (heat exchange), Q = mass rate, ms × change in specific enthalpy

= ms × (hi - h2)

= 0.025 × (2431.552 - 376.57)

= 0.025 × 2055.042

= 51.37455 kW

= 51.38 kW.

Explain how a voltage is produced in the secondary coil of the transformer.
Tema [17]

Answer:

the primary coil current produces a magnetic field, which changes as the current changes. the iron core increases the strength of the magnetic field. the changing magnetic field induces a changing potential difference (voltage) in the secondary coil.
