Answer:

add resistance to a circuit

Explanation:

It depends on the design in which it is incorporated. A fixed resistor has many uses, including, but not limited to ...

dropping voltage
limiting current
contributing to a time delay
adjusting frequency response
eliminating (or creating) signal reflections
acting as a fuse
calibrating or trimming a response
providing protection against electrical shock or ESD
acting as a reference when measuring variable resistors

Katarina [22]

To develop the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the ideal gas law, mass flow rate and total enthalpy.

The gas ideal law is given as,

$PV=mRT$

Where,

P = Pressure

V = Volume

m = mass

R = Gas Constant

T = Temperature

Our data are given by

$T_1 = 38\°C$

$T_2 = 14\°C$

$\eta = 97\%$

$\dot{v} = 510m^3/kg$

Note that the pressure to 38°C is 0.06626 bar

PART A) Using the ideal gas equation to calculate the mass flow,

$PV = mRT$

$\dot{m} = \frac{PV}{RT}$

$\dot{m} = \frac{0.6626*10^{5}*510}{287*311}$

$\dot{m} = 37.85kg/min$

Therfore the mass flow rate at which water condenses, then

$\eta = \frac{\dot{m_v}}{\dot{m}}$

Re-arrange to find $\dot{m_v}$

$\dot{m_v} = \eta*\dot{m}$

$\dot{m_v} = 0.97*37.85$

$\dot{m_v} = 36.72 kg/min$

PART B) Enthalpy is given by definition as,

$H= H_a +H_v$

Where,

$H_a$ = Enthalpy of dry air

$H_v$ = Enthalpy of water vapor

Replacing with our values we have that

$H=m*0.0291(38-25)+2500m_v$

$H = 37.85*0.0291(38-25)-2500*36.72$

$H = 91814.318kJ/min$

In the conversion system 1 ton is equal to 210kJ / min

$H = 91814.318kJ/min(\frac{1ton}{210kJ/min})$

$H = 437.2tons$

The cooling requeriment in tons of cooling is 437.2.

What is the activation energy (Q) for a vacancy formation if 10 moles of a metal have 2.3 X 10^13 vacancies at 425°C?

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

$Activation\ Energy=2.5\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Explanation:

Using the expression shown below as:

$N_v=N\times e^{-\frac {Q_v}{k\times T}$

Where,

$N_v$ is the number of vacancies

N is the number of defective sites

k is Boltzmann's constant = $1.38\times 10^{-23}\ J/K$

${Q_v}$ is the activation energy

T is the temperature

Given that:

$N_v=2.3\times 10^{13}$

N = 10 moles

1 mole = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

So,

N = $10\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=6.023\times 10^{24}$

Temperature = 425°C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (425 + 273.15) K = 698.15 K

T = 698.15 K

Applying the values as:

$2.3\times 10^{13}=6.023\times 10^{24}\times e^{-\frac {Q_v}{1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 698.15}$

$ln[\frac {2.3}{6.023}\times 10^{-11}]=-\frac {Q_v}{1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 698.15}$

$Q_v=2.5\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Technician B is right say that hard water potting i usually jut a Surface problem that can be wahed off.

What do you mean by Hard water?

The amount of dissolved calcium and magnesium in the water determines its hardness. Calcium and magnesium are the main dissolved minerals in hard water. The last time you washed your hands, you might have actually felt the effects of hard water.

What do you mean by acid rain?

Any type of precipitation that contains acidic elements, such as sulfuric or nitric acid, that falls to the ground from the atmosphere in wet or dry forms is referred to as acid rain, also known as acid deposition. Rain, snow, fog, hail, and even acidic dust can fall under this category.

Some plants are sensitive to excessive moisture around their root zone, so it may be necessary to increase drainage when growing plants in pots. Additionally, standing water at the bottom of the pot can cause root rot.

Many university agriculture extension agencies have thoroughly debunked the old garden myth that adding rocks to the bottom of a pot will increase drainage.
