A 0.245 kg ball is thrown straight up from 2.07 m above the ground. Its initial vertical speed is 8.00 m/s. A short time later,

it hits the ground. Calculate the total work done by the force of gravity during that time.

Answer:

The work done by gravity is 4.975 \: Joules

Explanation:

The data given in the question is :

Mass is 0.245 kg

Height from ground is 2.07 m

As we know , the work done is state function , it depends on initial and final position not on the path followed.

So, work done by gravity = change in potential energy

Work done = Initial potential energy - final potential energy

Insert values from question

Work done = mass \times gravity \times (change \: in \: height)

Work done = 0.245 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2.07 m

So, work done = 4.975 Joules

Hence the work done by gravity is 4.975 \: Joules

Argon gas enters steadily an adiabatic turbine at 900 kPa and 450C with a velocity of 80 m/s and leaves at 150 kPa with a veloc
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Temperature at the exit = 267.3 C

Explanation:

For the steady energy flow through a control volume, the power output is given as

W_{out}= -m_{f}(h_{2}-h_{1} + \frac{v_{2}^{2}}{2} - \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2})

Inlet area of the turbine = 60cm^{2}= 0.006m^{2}

To find the mass flow rate, we can apply the ideal gas laws to estimate the specific volume, from there we can get the mass flow rate.

Assuming Argon behaves as an Ideal gas, we have the specific volume v_{1}

as

v_{1}=\frac{RT_{1}}{P_{1}}=\frac{0.2081\times723}{900}=0.1672m^{3}/kg

m_{f}=\frac{1}{v_{1}}\times A_{1}V_{1} = \frac{1}{0.1672}\times(0.006)(80)=2.871kg/sec

for Ideal gasses, the enthalpy change can be calculated using the formula

h_{2}-h_{1}=C_{p}(T_{2}-T_{1})

hence we have

W_{out}= -m_{f}((C_{p}(T_{2}-T_{1}) + \frac{v_{2}^{2}}{2} - \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2})

250= -2.871((0.5203(T_{2}-450) + \frac{150^{2}}{2\times 1000} - \frac{80^{2}}{2\times 1000})

<em>Note: to convert the Kinetic energy term to kilojoules, it was multiplied by 1000</em>

evaluating the above equation, we have T_{2}=267.3C

Hence, the temperature at the exit = 267.3 C

The magnitude of the electric current is directly proportional to the _____________ of the electric field.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer;

the potential difference

The magnitude of the electric current is directly proportional to the potential difference of the electric field

Explanation;

An electric current results from the collective movement of free charges under the effect of an electric field. An electric field exists and can be observed in the space around a single charge or a number of charges.

Electric fields cause charges to move. It stands to reason that an electric field applied to some material will cause currents to flow in that material. In other words, the current density is directly proportional to the electric field. The constant of proportionality σ is called the material’s conductivity.

Charge is distributed uniformly on the surface of a large flat plate. the electric field 2 cm from the plate is 30 n/c. the elec
AysviL [449]
The electric field produced by a large flat plate with uniform charge density on its surface can be found by using Gauss law, and it is equal to
E= \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}
where
\sigma is the charge density
\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

We see that the intensity of the electric field does not depend on the distance from the plate. Therefore, the strenght of the electric field at 4 cm from the plate is equal to the strength of the electric field at 2 cm from the plate:
E=30 N/C
