Answer:

mass flow rate = 11.464 kg/sec

Explanation:

given data

P = 200 kPa = 2 × $10^{5}$ Pa

temperature = 150°C = 423 k

volumetric flow rate = 7000 liters/s

solution

first we get here molar flow rate that is express as

molar flow rate = $\frac{Pv}{RT}$ .................1

put here value

molar flow rate = $\frac{2 \times 10^5 \times 7}{8.314\times 423}$

molar flow rate = 398.06 mol/sec

and

now we get mass flow rate

mass flow rate = molar flow rate × average mol weight ..............2

mass flow rate = 398.06 × 28.8

mass flow rate = 11464.3 g/sec

mass flow rate = 11.464 kg/sec

An Atwood machine consists of two masses, mA = 6.8 kg and mB = 8.0 kg , connected by a cord that passes over a pulley free to ro

Lisa [10]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concewptos related to Torque, kinetic movement and Newton's second Law.

By definition Newton's second law is described as

F= ma

Where,

m= mass

a = Acceleration

Part A) According to the information (and as can be seen in the attached graph) a sum of forces is carried out in mass B, it is obtained that,

$\sum F = m_b a$

$m_Bg-T_B = m_Ba$

$T_B = m_Bg-m_Ba$

In the case of mass A,

$\sum F = m_A a$

$T_A = m_Ag-m_Aa$

Making summation of Torques in the Pulley we have to

$\sum\tau = I\alpha$

$T_BR_0-T_AR_0=I\alpha$

$T_B-T_A=I\frac{a}{R^2_0}$

Replacing the values previously found,

$(m_Bg-m_Ba )-(m_Ag-m_Aa )=I\frac{a}{R^2_0}$

$(m_B-m_A)g-(m_B+m_A)a=I\frac{a}{R^2_0}$

$a = \frac{(m_B-m_A)g}{\frac{I}{R_0^2}+(m_B+m_A)}$

$a = \frac{(m_B-m_A)g}{\frac{MR^2_0^2/2}{R_0^2}+(m_B+m_A)}$

$a =\frac{(m_B-m_A)g}{\frac{M}{2}+(m_B+m_A)}$

Replacing with our values

$a =\frac{(8-6.8)(9.8)}{\frac{0.8}{2}+(8+6.8)}$

$a=0.7736m/s^2$

PART B) Ignoring the moment of inertia the acceleration would be given by

$a' =\frac{(m_B-m_A)g}{(m_B+m_A)}$

$a' =\frac{(8-6.8)(9.8)}{(8+6.8)}$

$a' = 0.7945$

Therefore the error would be,

$\%error = \frac{a'-a}{a}*100$

$\%error = \frac{0.7945-0.7736}{0.7736}*100$

$\%error = 2.7%$

During a test, a NATO surveillance radar system, operating at 37 GHz at 182 kW of power, attempts to detect an incoming stealth

Marta_Voda [28]

(a) $2.68\cdot 10^{-6} W/m^2$

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave is given by

$I=\frac{P}{A}$

where

P is the power

A is the area of the surface considered

For the waves in the problem,

$P=182 kW = 1.82\cdot 10^5 W$ is the power

The area is a hemisphere of radius

$r=104 km=1.04\cdot 10^5 m$

so

$A=2\pi r^2=2\pi (1.04\cdot 10^5 m)^2=6.8\cdot 10^{10} m^2$

So, the intensity is

$I=\frac{1.82\cdot 10^5 W}{6.8\cdot 10^{10}m^2}=2.68\cdot 10^{-6} W/m^2$

(b) $5.9\cdot 10^{-7} W$

In this case, the area of the reflection is

$A=0.22 m^2$

So, if we use the intensity of the wave that we found previously, we can calculate the power of the aircraft's reflection using the same formula:

$P=IA=(2.68\cdot 10^{-6} W/m^2)(0.22 m^2)=5.9\cdot 10^{-7} W$

(c) $8.7\cdot 10^{-18} W/m^2$

We said that the power of the waves reflected by the aircraft is

$P=5.9\cdot 10^{-7} W$

If we assume that the reflected waves also propagate over a hemisphere of radius

$r=104 km=1.04\cdot 10^5 m$

which has an area of

$A=2\pi r^2=2\pi (1.04\cdot 10^5 m)^2=6.8\cdot 10^{10} m^2$

Then the intensity of the reflected waves at the radar site will be

$I=\frac{P}{A}=\frac{5.9\cdot 10^{-7} W}{6.8\cdot 10^{10} m^2}=8.7\cdot 10^{-18} W/m^2$

(d) $8.1\cdot 10^{-8} V/m$

The intensity of a wave is related to the maximum value of the electric field by

$I=\frac{1}{2}c\epsilon_0 E_0^2$

where

c is the speed of light

$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

$E_0$ is the maximum value of the electric field vector

Solving the equation for $E_0$ ,

$E_0=\sqrt{\frac{2I}{c\epsilon_0}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(8.7\cdot 10^{-18} W/m^2)}{(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m)}}=8.1\cdot 10^{-8} V/m$

(e) $1.9\cdot 10^{-16} T$

The maximum value of the magnetic field vector is given by

$B_0 = \frac{E_0}{c}$

Substituting the values,

$B_0 = \frac{(8.1\cdot 10^{-8} V/m)}{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}=2.7\cdot 10^{-16} T$

And the rms value of the magnetic field is given by

$B_{rms} = \frac{B_0}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{2.7\cdot 10^{-16} T}{\sqrt{2}}=1.9\cdot 10^{-16} T$

What does the positive sign tell you about any vector<br> quantity ?

vredina [299]

Answer:

With a vector, however, the sign simply tells you about the direction of the vector. If you're travelling with a velocity of 20 km/hr east, it means you're travelling east, and your speed is 20 km/hr.
