A 20000 kg subway train initially traveling at 18.5 m/s slows to a stop in a station and then stays there long enough for its br

akes to cool. The station's dimensions are 65.0 m long by 20.0 m wide by 12.0 m high.Assuming all the work done by the brakes in stopping the train is transferred as heat uniformly to all the air in the station, by how much does the air temperature in the station rise? Take the density of the air to be 1.20 kg/m3 and its specific heat to be 1020 J/(kg*K).

Answer:

rise the air temperature is 0.179241 K

Explanation:

Given data

mass = 20000 kg

velocity  = 18.5 m/s

long = 65 m

wide = 20 m

height = 12 m

density of the air = 1.20 kg/ m³

specific heat = 1020 J/(kg*K)

to find out

how much does the air temperature in the station rise

solution

we know here Energy lost by the train that is calculated by  

loss in the kinetic energy that is = 1/2 m v²

loss in the kinetic energy = 0.5 × 20000 ×18.5²

loss in the kinetic energy  is 3422500 J

and

this energy is used here to rise the air temperature that is KE / ( specific hat × mass )

so here  

air volume = 65 ×20×12

air volume = 15600 m³

air mass  =  ρ × V = 1.2 × 15600

air mass = 18720 kg

so

rise the air temperature = 3422500 / ( 1020 × 18720)

rise the air temperature is 0.179241 K

Answer:

The discharge rate is Q = 0.0192 \  m^3 /s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  diameter is  d =  60 \ mm   =  0.06 \ m

    The  head is  h  =  6 \ m

     The  coefficient of contraction is  Cc  =  0.68

     The  coefficient of  velocity is  Cv  =  0.92

The radius is mathematically evaluated as

         r =  \frac{d}{2}

substituting values

        r =  \frac{ 0.06 }{2}

        r =  0.03 \ m

The  area is mathematically represented as

      A =  \pi r^2

substituting values

      A =  3.142 *  (0.03)^2

      A = 0.00283 \ m^2

 The  discharge rate is mathematically represented as

        Q =  Cv *Cc  *  A  *  \sqrt{ 2 * g *  h}

substituting values

       Q = 0.68 *  0.92*   0.00283  *  \sqrt{ 2 * 9.8 *  6}

       Q = 0.0192 \  m^3 /s

Consider the following True/False statements:
Ainat [17]

Answer:

6) False

7) True

8) False

9) False

10) False

11) True

12) True

13) True

14) True

Explanation:

The spacing between two energy levels in an atom shows the energy difference between them. Clearly, B has a greater value of ∆E compared to A. This implies that the wavelength emitted by B is greater than A while B will emit fewer, more energetic photons.

When atoms jump from lower to higher energy levels, photons are absorbed. The kinetic energy of the incident photon determines the frequency, wavelength and colour of light emitted by the atom.

The energy level to which an atom is excited is determined by the kinetic energy of the incident electron. As the voltage increases, the kinetic energy of the electron increases, the further the atom is from the source of free electrons, the greater the required kinetic energy of free electron. When electrons are excited to higher energy levels, they must return to ground state.
