An electric motor is used to operate a Carnot refrigerator with an interior temperature of 0.00 ◦C. Liquid water at 0.00 ◦C is p

laced into the refrigerator and transformed to ice at 0.00 ◦C. If the room temperature is 300. K, what mass of ice can be produced in one day by a 0.50 hp motor that is running continuously? Assume that the refrigerator is perfectly insulated and operates at the maximum theoretical efficiency.

Answer:

732492 g

Explanation:

Given that

Room Temperature = 300 K

Cold T = 0°C = 0 + 273 =273 K

Work done = 0.375 hp

ΔH of fusion of water is 6008 J per mol

The first thing we do is to Convert the power into J/s

Given that 1 hp = 746 W (J/s), then

0.375 hp = 0.375 * 746 W/hp

0.375 = 280 J/s

Then we find the heat per unit time

Q = (cold T / hot T - cold T ) x power

Q = [273 / (300 - 273)] * 280

Q =273/27 * 280

Q = 10.1

Q = 2831 J/s

Moles of ice per second = Q/ ΔH fusion

Moles of ice per second = 2831/6008 = Moles of ice per second = 0.471 mol /s

If we convert 1 day into second, we have

1 day = 1 day * ( 24 hours/day) * ( 60 minutes/hour) * (60 seconds/minutes)

1 * 24 * 3600 = 86400 second

moles of ice /day

0.471 mol / s ) x 86400 s / day =

40694 mols of ice

Molar mass is 18 g/mol

Mass of ice

40694 * 18 = 732492 g

Mass of ice produced per day is 732492 g

An astronaut has a mass of 75 kg and is floating in space 500 m from his 125,000 kg spacecraft. What will be the force of gravit
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1. 2.5×10¯⁹ N

2. 3.33×10¯¹¹ m/s²

Explanation:

1. Determination of the force of attraction.

Mass of astronaut (M₁) = 75 Kg

Mass of spacecraft (M₂) = 125000 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 500 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force of attraction (F) =?

The force of attraction between the astronaut and his spacecraft can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ /r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 75 × 125000 / 500²

F = 2.5×10¯⁹ N

Thus, the force of attraction between the astronaut and his spacecraft is 2.5×10¯⁹ N

2. Determination of the acceleration of the astronaut.

Mass of astronaut (m) = 75 Kg

Force (F) = 2.5×10¯⁹ N

Acceleration (a) of astronaut =?

The acceleration of the astronaut can be obtained as follow:

F = ma

2.5×10¯⁹ N = 75 × a

Divide both side by 75

a = 2.5×10¯⁹ / 75

a = 3.33×10¯¹¹ m/s²

Thus, the acceleration the astronaut is 3.33×10¯¹¹ m/s²

Use the techniques to find the unit for speed​
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The formula for speed is speed=<u>d</u><u>i</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u>a</u><u>n</u><u>c</u><u>e</u>

time

Explanation:

to work out what the units are for speed,you need to know the units for distance and time.In this example,distance is in metres(m) and time is in seconds (s) , so the units for speed is metre per second (m/s).

There is a 3-kg toy cart moving at 4 m/s. Calculate the kinetic<br> energy of the cart.
m_a_m_a [10]

The kinetic energy of the cart is 24 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The acceleration of a given mass from rest to the velocity is known as kinetic energy. It gains energy from acceleration and remains in this state until the speed of the object changes.  

The kinetic energy is the given by,

                           K.E = 1/2 mv^2

Given the mass m = 3 kg,        v = 4 m / s.

                            K.E = 1/2 \times 3 \times (4)^2          

                          K.E  = 24 J.
