Explanation:

A stone is thrown upward neglecting air resistance. ... Why is it important that a satellite remain above Earth's atmosphere? The air resistance will slow it down and burn it. What happens to a satellite close to Earth's surface if it is given a speed exceeding 11.2 km/s?

Refrigerant 134a enters a well-insulated nozzle at 200 lbf/in.2, 200°F, with a velocity of 120 ft/s and exits at 50 lbf/in.2 wit

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

x = 0.75801 = 75.801%

T_2 = 72..78 degree F

Explanation:

From superheated R 134 a properties table

At 200 lb/in^2 and 200 degree F

$h_1 = 138.99 Btu/lbm$

steady flow energy equation is givena s

$h_1 + \frac{v_1^2}{2} = h_2 + \frac{v_2^2}{2}$

$138.99 + \frac{120^2}{2\times 25037} = h_2 + \frac{1500^2}{2 \times 25037}$

$h_2 = 94.344 Btu/lbm$

At 90 lb/in2 Tsat = 72.78 degree F

$h_f = 35.715 Btu/lbm$

hfg = 77.345 Btu/lbm

h = hf + x hfg

$94.344 = 35.715+ x \times 77.345$

solving for x we get

x = 0.75801 = 75.801%

$T_2 = 72..78 degree F$

When two point charges are a distance d part, the electric force that each one feels from the other has magnitude F. In order to

Contact [7]

Answer:

Because the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charged particles is given by

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges

d is the distance between the two charges

We observe that the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

Therefore, when the distance changes to

$d'=\frac{d}{\sqrt{2}}$

The force will double:

$F'=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(d/\sqrt{2})^2}=2(k\frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2})=2F$

Which scenario would be classified as a conceptual model

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Heyo! (Ish Mash Potato) XD

Explanation:

A conceptual model is a representation of a system, made of the composition of concepts which are used to help people know, understand, or simulate a subject the model represents. It is also a set of concepts. Some models are physical objects; for example, a toy model which may be assembled, and may be made to work like the object it represents.

Hope Mr. Mash Potato Helped!!!
