To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the heat exchange of a body.

By definition heat exchange in terms of mass flow can be expressed as

W = \dot{m}c_p \Delta T

Where

C_p = Specific heat

\dot{m}= Mass flow rate

\Delta T = Change in Temperature

Our values are given as

C_p = 1.005kJ/kgK \rightarrow Specific heat of air

T_1 = 50\°C

\dot{m} = 2kg/s

W = 8kW

From our equation we have that

W = \dot{m}c_p \Delta T

W = \dot{m}c_p (T_2-T_1)

Rearrange to find T_2

T_2 = \frac{W}{\dot{m}c_p}+T_1

Replacing

T_2 = \frac{8}{2*1.005}+(50+273)

T_2 = 326.98K \approx 53.98\°C

Therefore the exit temperature of air is 53.98°C

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:Vb=-6i-(-0.1ωab+8)j m/s

Explanation:

Va=V0+Va0

Va=V0+(ra0 x ωao)

ω=Angular velocity of link A0

Using r0a=0.1m;

Va=V0+(0.1i x ω0a K)

Va=0

ixk=j

Va=0+0.1ω0aj

Calculating te velocity of using te equation below

Vb=Va+Vba

Vb=Va+ωab x rba

ωab=40rad/s

rab=-0.21i+0.15j

Va=0.1ω0aj

Vb=Va+ωabxrba

Vb=0.1ω0aj+40k x -(0.21i+0.15j)

Vb=0.1ω0aj-8j-6i

Vb=-6i-(-0.1ωab+8)j m/s

A heat pump receives heat from a lake that has an average wintertime temperature of 6o C and supplies heat into a house having a
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a) \dot W = 1.062\,kW

Explanation:

a) Let consider that heat pump is reversible, so that the Coefficient of Performance is:

COP_{HP} = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}

COP_{HP} = \frac{298.15\,K}{298.15\,K-279.15\,K}

COP_{HP} = 15.692

The minimum heat received by the house must be equal to the heat lost to keep the average temperature constant. Hence:

\dot Q_{H} = 60000\,\frac{kJ}{h}

The minimum power supplied to the heat pump is:

\dot W = \frac{\dot Q_{H}}{COP}

\dot W = \frac{\left(60000\,\frac{kJ}{h}  \right)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,h}{3600\,s}  \right)}{15.692}

\dot W = 1.062\,kW

A metal bar has a 0.6 in. x 0.6 in. cross section and a gauge length of 2 in. The bar is loaded with a tensile force of 50,000 l
Aleks [24]

Answer:

modulus =3.97X10^6 Ib/in^2, Poisson's ratio = 0.048

Explanation:

Modulus is the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain

Poisson's ratio is the ratio of transverse contraction strain to longitudinal extension strain within the direction of the stretching force

And contraction occur from 0.6 in x 0.6 in to 0.599 in x 0.599 in while 2 in extended to 2.007, with extension of 0.007 in
