Answer:

Initial temperature = 170. 414 °C

Total mass = 94.478 Kg

Final volumen = 33.1181 m^3

Diagram  = see picture.

Explanation:

We can consider this system as a close system, because there is not information about any output or input of water, so the mass in the system is constant.  

The information tells us that the system is in equilibrium with two phases: liquid and steam. When a system is a two phases region (equilibrium) the temperature and pressure keep constant until the change is completed (either condensation or evaporation). Since we know that we are in a two-phase region and we know the pressure of the system, we can check the thermodynamics tables to know the temperature, because there is a unique temperature in which with this pressure (800 kPa) the system can be in two-phases region (reach the equilibrium condition).  

For water in equilibrium at 800 kPa the temperature of saturation is 170.414 °C which is the initial temperature of the system.  

to calculate the total mass of the system, we need to estimate the mass of steam and liquid water and add them. To get these values we use the specific volume for both, liquid and steam for the initial condition. We can get them from the thermodynamics tables.

For the condition of 800 kPa and 170.414 °C using the thermodynamics tables we get:

Vg (Specific Volume of Saturated Steam) = 0.240328 m^3/kg

Vf (Specific Volume of Saturated Liquid) = 0.00111479 m^3/kg

if you divide the volume of liquid and steam provided in the statement by the specific volume of saturated liquid and steam, we can obtain the value of mass of vapor and liquid in the system.

Steam mass = *0.9 m^3 / 0.240328 m^3/kg = 3.74488 Kg

Liquid mass = 0.1 m^3 /0.00111479 m^3/kg = 89.70299 Kg  

Total mass of the system = 3.74488 Kg + 89.70299 Kg = 93,4478 Kg

If we keep the pressure constant increasing the temperature the system will experience a phase-change (see the diagram) going from two-phase region to superheated steam. When we check for properties for the condition of P= 800 kPa and T= 350°C we see that is in the region of superheated steam, so we don’t have liquid water in this condition.  

If we want to get the final volume of the water (steam) in the system, we need to get the specific volume for this condition from the thermodynamics tables.  

Specific Volume of Superheated Steam at 800 kPa and 350°C = 0.354411 m^3/kg

We already know that this a close system so the mass in it keeps constant during the process.

 

If we multiply the mass of the system by the specific volume in the final condition, we can get the final volume for the system.  

Final volume = 93.4478 Kg * 0.354411 m^3/kg = 33.1189 m^3

You can the P-v diagram for this system in the picture.  

For the initial condition you can calculate the quality of the steam (measure of the proportion of steam on the mixture) to see how far the point is from for the condition on all the mix is steam. Is a value between 0 and 1, where 0 is saturated liquid and 1 is saturated steam.  

Quality of steam = mass of steam / total mass of the system

Quality of steam = 3.74488 Kg /93.4478 Kg = 0,040 this value is usually present as a percentage so is 4%.  

Since this a low value we can say that we are very close the saturated liquid point in the diagram.

The modern hydraulic lifts make use of biodegradable fluid to transmit hydraulic power

<em>Question: The options are left out in the question. The details and facts about the modern hydraulic lift are presented here</em>

<em />

Details about the modern hydraulic lifts include;

The development of the  modern hydraulic occurred in the Industrial Revolution to perform task done previously by steam powered elevators  

The power of the hydraulic lift come from the hydraulic cylinder known as the actuator, which in turn is powered by pressurized hydraulic fluid such as oil

The hydraulic fluid is pushed by a piston rod through which energy is capable of being transferred, such that the applied force is multiplied, to provide more power for lifting

<u>Facts about the modern hydraulic lifts include;</u>

  • The dry motor in the modern hydraulic lift is more efficient and consumes 20% less energy
  • It comprises of valves that are controlled electronically such that the response is much rapid and the energy consumption is reduced by a further 20%
  • The cars used in the modern lift are lighter, as well as the slings, which reduces the power usage by 20%
  • It makes use of chemicals which are environmentally friendly as hydraulic fluid
  • The flash point of the fluid used is higher, as well as it posses 50% lower compressibility as well elasticity

Define factors that can change the performance of a polymer, such are additives
inna [77]

Answer:

 The performance of the polymer is basically change by the various type of factors like shape, tensile strength and color.

The polymer based products are basically influenced by the environmental factors like light, acids or alkalis chemicals, salts and also heat.

The additives is one of the type of chemical polymer which basically include polymer matrix for improving the ability of processing of the polymer. It also helps to enhance the production and requirement of the polymer products in the environment.

What are the de Broglie frequencies and wavelengths of (a) an electron accelerated to 50 eV (b) a proton accelerated to 100 eV
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

(a) De-Brogie wavelength is 0.173 nm and frequency is 2.42 x 10^16 Hz

(b) De-Brogie wavelength is 2.875 pm and frequency is 4.8 x 10^16 Hz

Explanation:

(a)

First, we need to find velocity of electron. Since, it is accelerated by electric potential. Therefore,

K.E of electron = (1/2)mv² = (50 eV)(1.6 x 10^-19 J/1 eV)

(1/2)mv² = 8 x 10^(-18) J

Mass of electron = m = 9.1 x 10^(-31) kg

Therefore,

v² = [8 x 10^(-18) J](2)/(9.1 x 10^(-31) kg)

v = √1.75 x 10^13

v = 4.2 x 10^6 m/s

Now, the de Broglie's wavelength is given as:

λ = h/mv

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10^(-34) kg.m²/s

Therefore,

λ = (6.626 x 10^(-34) kg.m²/s)/(9.1 x 10^(-31) kg)(4.2 x 10^6 m/s)

<u>λ = 0.173 x 10^(-9) m = 0.173 nm</u>

The frequency is given as:

Frequency = f = v/λ

f = (4.2 x 10^6 m/s)/(0.173 x 10^(-9) m)

<u>f = 2.42 x 10^16 Hz</u>

(b)

First, we need to find velocity of proton. Since, it is accelerated by electric potential. Therefore,

K.E of proton = (1/2)mv² = (100 eV)(1.6 x 10^-19 J/1 eV)

(1/2)mv² = 1.6 x 10^(-17) J

Mass of proton = m = 1.67 x 10^(-27) kg

Therefore,

v² = [1.6 x 10^(-17) J](2)/(1.67 x 10^(-27) kg)

v = √1.916 x 10^10

v = 1.38 x 10^5 m/s

Now, the de Broglie's wavelength is given as:

λ = h/mv

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10^(-34) kg.m²/s

Therefore,

λ = (6.626 x 10^(-34) kg.m²/s)/(1.67 x 10^(-27) kg)(1.38 x 10^5 m/s)

<u>λ = 2.875 x 10^(-12) m = 2.875 pm</u>

The frequency is given as:

Frequency = f = v/λ

f = (1.38 x 10^5 m/s)/(2.875 x 10^(-12) m)

<u>f = 4.8 x 10^16 Hz</u>
