An electric furnace is to melt 40 kg of aluminium/hour. The initial temperature of aluminium is 32°C. Given that aluminium has s
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Part a)

P = 13.93 kW

Part b)

R = 8357.6 Cents

Explanation:

Part A)

heat required to melt the aluminium is given by

Q = ms\Delta T + mL

here we have

Q = 40(950)(680 - 32) + 40(450 \times 10^3)

Q = 24624 kJ + 18000 kJ

Q = 42624 kJ

Since this is the amount of aluminium per hour

so power required to melt is given by

P = \frac{Q}{t}

P = \frac{42624}{3600} kW

P = 11.84 kW

Since the efficiency is 85% so actual power required will be

P = \frac{11.84}{0.85} = 13.93 kW

Part B)

Total energy consumed by the furnace for 30 hours

Energy = power \times time

Energy = 13.93 kW\times 30 h

Energy = 417.9 kWh

now the total cost of energy consumption is given as

R = P \times 20 \frac{Cents}{kWh}

R = 417.9 kWh\times  20 \frac{cents}{kWh}

R = 8357.6 Cents

For this problem, we use the derived equations for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equations used for this problem are:

a = (v - v₀)/t
2ax = v² - v₀²
where
a is the acceleration
x is the distance
v is the final velocity
v₀ is the initial velocity
t is the time

The solution is as follows;

a = (60mph - 30 mph)/(3 s * 1 h/3600 s)
a = 36,000 mph²

2(36,000 mph²)(x) = 60² - 30²
Solving for x,
x = 0.0375 miles

A 0.540-kg bucket rests on a scale. Into this bucket you pour sand at the constant rate of 56.0 g/s. If the sand lands in the bu
romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 12.8212 N

b) 12.642 N

Explanation:

Mass of bucket = m = 0.54 kg

Rate of filling with sand  = 56.0 g/ sec = 0.056 kg/s

Speed of sand = 3.2 m/s

g= 9.8 m/sec2

<u>Condition (a);</u>

Mass of sand = Ms = 0.75 kg

So total mass becomes = bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

== > total weight = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N

Now impact of sand = rate of filling × velocity = 0.056 × 3.2 =  0.1792 kg. m /sec2=0.1792 N

Scale reading is sum of impact of sand and weight force ;

i-e

scale reading = 12.642 N+0.1792 N = 12.8212 N

<u>Codition (b);</u>

bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

==>weight = mg = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N (readily calculated above as well)
