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

How long will a plane have to fly continuously with 900 miles per hour in order to cover the same distance as that from Earth to
hammer [34]

I'm not sure about the distance to the nearest star, but it's probably about        4 light-years (L-y).

1 L-y = 1.86 * 10E5 mi/sec * 3600 sec/hr * 24 hr/day * 365 day/yr

1 L-y = 5.9 *10E12 mi   and 4 L-y = 2.3 *10E13 mi    distance to star

2.3 * 10E13 mi / 900 mi/hr = 2.6 * 10E10 hr       hours to star

2.6 * 10E10 hr / (24 hr/day) = 1.1 * 10E9 day     days to star

1.1 * 10E9 day / 365 day/yr = 3 * 10E6 yr = 3 million years to star

What information could you gather about a star if its light curve had multiple
yanalaym [24]

The information that could be gathered about a star whose light curve has multiple symmetrical depths is ; The shape and surface variegation of the star

The light curves of a KBO ( moons and stars ) are measured as a rate of the brightness of a star in relation to time. therefore the study of the light curve having multiple symmetrical depths ( depth of brightness ) will give an information about the shape/size and the surface variegation of the star

Hence we can conclude that The information that could be gathered about a star whose light curve has multiple symmetrical depths is ; The shape and surface variegation of the star

Minority group
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Minority group - People who are singled  out for unequal treatment  and who regard  themselves as objects of  collective discrimination.

Ethnicity - A shared identity based on  cultural elements such as  heritage, language, and  religion.

Majority group - A group's subset that  consists of more than half  of the entire group's  members.

Race - A socially constructed  group of people who share  physical characteristics  that are considered  significant by a society  and that are used to  distinguish them from  other groups.

Explanation:

To better understand the above-mentioned definitions we would use some examples:

Elder people can be considered as a minority group in the United States because of their reduced status as a consequence of popular discrimination and prejudice against them. In contrast to them, young men consisting of more than half the population in the age category is an example of the majority group.

Groups of people like Hispanic Americans, Jews, Italian America, Irish are some examples of people belonging to different ethnic backgrounds residing in the U.S.

African Americans who are distinguished based on their skin color is an example of race.

A cellist tunes the C string of her instrument to a fundamental frequency of 65.4 Hz. The vibrating portion of the string is 0.5
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

a

\lambda  = 1.18 \  m

b

v  =  77.172 \  m/s

c

T  = 151.41 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequency is  f =  65.4 \  Hz

   The  length of the vibrating string is  L  =  0.590 \  m

   The  mass is  m  =  15.0 \ g  =  0.015 \  kg

Generally the wavelength is mathematically represented as

           \lambda =  2 *  L

=>        \lambda  =  2 *   0.590

=>         \lambda  = 1.18 \  m

Generally the wave speed is  

          v  =  \lambda  *  f

=>       v  =  1.18 * 65.4

=>       v  =  77.172 \  m/s

Generally the tension on the wire is mathematically represented as

        T  =  v^2  *  \frac{ m }{L }

=>      T  =  77.172 ^2  *  \frac{  0.015  }{0.590}

=>      T  = 151.41 \  N
