Answer:

0.2 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of a point on the edge of a disk rotating disk can be calculated as:

$v=\omega*r$

Where $\omega$ is the angular velocity and r the radius of the disk. This leads to:

$v=0.5\,rad/s\,*\,0.4\,m=0.2\,m/s$

Answer:

0.2 m/s

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>identify the given parameters

angular velocity, ω = 0.5 rad/s

radius of the disk, r = 0.4m

<u>Note</u>: the inner part of the disk and outer edge spin at the same rate. This means that the velocity at inner part of the disk is the same as the outer part.

<u>Step 2:</u> calculate the velocity of the disk at the outer edge in m/s

Velocity = Angular velocity (rad/s) X radius (m)

Velocity = 0.5 rad/s X 0.4 m

Velocity = 0.2 m/s

For a refrigerator, COP<1 a) True b) False

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

COP is Coeficient of performance, it relates useful heat moved with work consumed, it is used in refrigerators and heat pumps.

For refrigerators the useful heat is the one extracted from the cold reservoir. Therefore:

$COP = \frac{Tcold}{T.hot - Tcold}$

This often exceeds 1.

Consider 4.8 pounds per minute of water vapor at 100 lbf/in2, 500 oF, and a velocity of 100 ft/s entering a nozzle operating at

andriy [413]

Answer:

A) $v_2 = 2016.80 ft/s$

B) $\Delta s = 0.006 Btu/lbm R$

Explanation:

Given data:

P-1 = 100 lbf/in^2

$T_1 = 500$ degree f

$V_1 = 100 ft/s$

$P_2 = 40 lbf/inc^2$

effeciency = 80%

from steady flow enerfy equation

$h_1 +\frac{V_1^2}{2} = h_2 + \frac{V_2^2}{2}$

where h1 and h2 are inlet and exit enthalpy

for P1 = 100 lbf/in^2 and T1 = 500 degree F

$H_1 = 1278.8 Btu/lbm$

$s_1 = 1.708 Btu/lbm -R$

for P1 = 40 lbf/in^2

$H_1 = 1193.5 Btu/lbm$

$s_1 = 1.708 Btu/lbm -R$

exit enthalapy h_2

$\eta = \frac{h_1 - h'_2}{ h_1 - h_2}$

$0.80 = \frac{1278.8 - h'_2}{1278.8 -1193.5} = 1197.77 Btu/lbm$

from above equation

$1278.8 \times 25037 + \frac{100^2}{2} = 1197.77 \times 25037 + \frac{v_2^2}{2}$ [1 Btu/lbm = 25037 ft^2/s^2]

$v_2 = 2016.80 ft/s$

b) amount of entropy

$\Delta s = s_2 - s_1$

$s_1 = 1.708 Btu/lbm -R$

at $h_2 = 1197.77 Btu/lbm [\tex] and [tex]P_2 = 40 lbf/in^2$

$s_2 is 1.714 Btu/lbm -R$

$\Delta s = 1.714 - 1.708 = 0.006 Btu/lbm R$

Answer:

a) ≈ 30 mins

b) 8 vpm

Explanation:

<u>a) Determine how long after the first vehicle arrival will the queue dissipate</u>

The time after the arrival of the first vehicle for the queue to dissipate

= 29.9 mins ≈ 30 mins

<u>b) Determine the average service rate at the parking lot gate </u>

U = A / t

where : A = 240 vehicles , t = 30

U = 240 / 30 = 8 Vpm

A gas cylinder is connected to a manometer that contains water. The other end of the manometer is open to the atmosphere, which

horrorfan [7]

Answer: the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa

Explanation:

Given that;

patm = 79 kPa, h = 13 in of H₂O,

A sketch of the problem is uploaded along this answer.

Now

pA = patm + 13 in of H₂O ( h × density × g )

pA= 79 + (13 × 0.0254 × 9.8 × 1000/1000)

pA = 82.23596 kPa

the absolute static pressure in the gas cylinder is 82.23596 kPa
