Answer:

<em>Heat rejected to cold body = 3.81 kJ</em>

Explanation:

Temperature of hot thermal reservoir Th = 1600 K

Temperature of cold thermal reservoir Tc = 400 K

<em>efficiency of the Carnot's engine = 1 - </em>\frac{Tc}{Th}<em> </em>

eff. of the Carnot's engine = 1 - \frac{400}{600}

eff = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

<em>efficiency of the heat engine = 70% of 0.75 = 0.525</em>

work done by heat engine = 2 kJ

<em>eff. of heat engine is gotten as = W/Q</em>

where W = work done by heat engine

Q = heat rejected by heat engine to lower temperature reservoir

from the equation, we can derive that

heat rejected Q = W/eff = 2/0.525 = <em>3.81 kJ</em>

The fractional_part function divides the numerator by the denominator, and returns just the fractional part (a number between 0
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Here is the fractional_part() function:

def fractional_part(numerator, denominator):

   if denominator != 0:

       return (numerator % denominator)/denominator

   else:

       return 0

Explanation:

I will explain the code line by line.

The first statement it the definition of function fractional_part() which takes two parameters i.e. numerator and denominator to return the fractional part of the division.

Next is an if statement which checks if the value of denominator is 0. If this is true then the function returns 0. If this condition evaluates to false which means that the value of denominator is not 0 then return (numerator % denominator)/denominator  is executed. Now lets see how this statement works with the help of an example.

Lets say the value of numerator is 5 and denominator is 4. (numerator % denominator)/denominator will first compute the modulus of these two values. 5 % 4 is 1 because when 5 is divided by 4 , then the remainder is 1. Now this result is divided by denominator to get the fractional part. When 1 is divided by 4 the answer is 0.25. So this is how we get the fractional part which is 0.25.  

The program with output is attached.

Help pleasee I'm bad in this thing:(
topjm [15]

Answer:

f = 0.05Hz

Explanation:

Look at the graph. You can see that the wave complete one cycle in 20 seconds, so we can say that the period is 20s.

T = 20

frequency is just the inverse the period so

f = 1/T = 1/20 = 0.05Hz

At a certain location, wind is blowing steadily at 5 mph. Suppose that the mass density of air is 0.0796 lbm/ft3 and determine t
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft

The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m

Explanation:

Given;

power generation potential (PGP) = 1000 kW

Wind speed = 5 mph = 2.2352 m/s

Density of air = 0.0796 lbm/ft³ = 1.275 kg/m³

Radius of the wind turbine r = ?

Wind energy per unit mass of air, e = E/m = 0.5 v² = (0.5)(2.2352)²

Wind energy per unit mass of air = 2.517 J/kg

PGP = mass flow rate * energy per unit mass

PGP = ρ*A*V*e

PGP = \rho *\frac{\pi r^2}{2} *V*e  \\\\r^2 = \frac{2*PGP}{\rho*\pi *V*e} , r=\sqrt{ \frac{2*PGP}{\rho*\pi *V*e}} = \sqrt{ \frac{2*10^6}{1.275*\pi *2.235*2.517}}

r = 210.64 m = 691.1 ft

Thus, the radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft

PGP = CVᵃ

For best design of wind turbine Betz limit (c) is taken between (0.35 - 0.45)

Let C = 0.4

PGP = Cvᵃ

take log of both sides

ln(PGP) = a*ln(CV)

a = ln(PGP)/ln(CV)

a = ln(1000)/ln(0.4 *2.2352) = 7.73

The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m
