Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

155.38424 K

2.2721 kg/m³

Explanation:

P_1 = Pressure at reservoir = 10 atm

T_1 = Temperature at reservoir = 300 K

P_2 = Pressure at exit = 1 atm

T_2 = Temperature at exit

R_s = Mass-specific gas constant = 287 J/kgK

\gamma = Specific heat ratio = 1.4 for air

For isentropic flow

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{P_1}^{\frac{\gamma-1}{\gamma}}\\\Rightarrow T_2=T_1\times \frac{P_2}{P_1}^{\frac{\gamma-1}{\gamma}}\\\Rightarrow T_2=00\times \left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^{\frac{1.4-1}{1.4}}\\\Rightarrow T_2=155.38424\ K

The temperature of the flow at the exit is 155.38424 K

From the ideal equation density is given by

\rho_2=\frac{P_2}{R_sT_2}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\frac{1\times 101325}{287\times 155.38424}\\\Rightarrow \rho=2.2721\ kg/m^3

The density of the flow at the exit is 2.2721 kg/m³

If light energy to electric energy conversion using solar cells is 12 % efficient, how many square miles of land must be covered
umka2103 [35]

Complete Question

The light energy that falls on a square meter of ground over the course of a typical sunny day is about 20 MJ . The average rate of electric energy consumption in one house is 1.0 kW .

If light energy to electric energy conversion using solar cells is 12 % efficient, how many square miles of land must be covered with solar cells to supply the electrical energy for 350000 houses? Assume there is no cloud cover.

Answer:

The area is  A = 1.26 *10^{7} m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The efficiency is  \eta =12%

      The number of houses is  N = 350000

       The light energy per day is E =  20 \ MJ

       The average rating of electric energy for a house is  E_h  =  1.0 \ k W =  1000W

   

Generally the electric energy which the solar cells covering 1 \ m^2 produces in a day is

       E_s =  \eta * E

           E_s =  0.12 * 20*10^{6}

          E_s = 2.4 MJ m^{-2}

Energy for required by one house for one day is  

        E_H  = E_h * 1 \ day  

       E_H  = 1000 * 24 * 3600  

        E_H  = 86.4 MJ

Energy needed for 350000 house is

      E_z = 86.4 *10^{6} *  350000  

     E_z = 3.02 *10^{7} MJ

The area covered is mathematically represented as

            A = \frac{3.02*10^{7} \ MJ}{2.4 \ MJ m^{-2}}

           A = 1.26 *10^{7} m^2
