Hi! bridges could have been collapse due to an error made by the engineers during construction.
Answer:
The rate of entropy change of the air is -0.10067kW/K
Explanation:
We'll assume the following
1. It is a steady-flow process;
2. The changes in the kinetic energy and the potential energy are negligible;
3. Lastly, the air is an ideal gas
Energy balance will be required to calculate heat loss;
mh1 + W = mh2 + Q where W = Q.
Also note that the rate of entropy change of the air is calculated by calculating the rate of heat transfer and temperature of the air, as follows;
Rate of Entropy Change = -Q/T
Where Q = 30Kw
T = Temperature of air = 25°C = 298K
Rate = -30/298
Rate = -0.100671140939597 KW/K
Rate = -0.10067kW/K
Hence, the rate of entropy change of the air is -0.10067kW/K
Answer:
That's either a cable-stayed bridge or a cantilever bridge
