Answer:
Explanation:
Speed given = 125 m /min
125 /60 m /s
In 450 second it will travel
= 450 x 125 / 60
=937.5 m.
As the distance is covered in less than 450 seconds , The distance must be less than 937.5 m
In 400 seconds , it will travel
= 400 x 125 / 60
833.33 m
Since the distance is covered in more than 400 seconds , the distance must be more than ie 833.33 .
Hence the distance covered is more than .833 m but less than 937.5
In either case these distance are more than .8 km .
Answer:
a. 572Btu/s
b.0.1483Btu/s.R
Explanation:
a.Assume a steady state operation, KE and PE are both neglected and fluids properties are constant.
From table A-3E, the specific heat of water is
, and the steam properties as, A-4E:

Using the energy balance for the system:

Hence, the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger is 572Btu/s
b. Heat gained by the water is equal to the heat lost by the condensing steam.
-The rate of steam condensation is expressed as:

Entropy generation in the heat exchanger could be defined using the entropy balance on the system:

Hence,the rate of entropy generation in the heat exchanger. is 0.1483Btu/s.R
<h2>
Answer: The Transit method</h2>
Detecting extrasolar planets by direct observation (with a telescope) is a complicated task. This is because any planet constitutes an extremely dim light source compared to the star around which it orbits.
So, to detect this extremely dim source is quite difficult due to the glare of the star's light that dulls it.
In this sense, scientists and astronomers have made several methods to find these extrasolar planets, among which the most successful has been the transit method.
This method is based on <u>astronomical transit</u>, a phenomenon in which a body (a planet in this case) passes in front of a larger one (the star), blocking (eclipsing) its vision to some extent.
It should be noted that this is the method currently used in the search for extrasolar planets. Space agencies such as ESA (Europe) and NASA (USA) have put into orbit satellites with extremely sensitive photometric sensors to observe even the smallest variations of intensity of a star due to the passage of a planet.
Answer:
0.4778 m/s
Explanation:
To solve this question, we will make use of law of conservation of momentum.
We are given that the rock's velocity is 12 m/s at 35°. Thus, the horizontal component of this velocity is;
V_x = (12 m/s)(cos(35°)) = 9.83 m/s.
Thus, the horizontal component of the rock's momentum is;
(3.5 kg)(9.83 m/s) = 34.405 kg·m/s.
Since the person is not pushed up off the ice or down into it, his momentum will have no vertical component and so his momentum will have the same magnitude as the horizontal component of the rock's momentum.
Thus, to get the person's speed, we know that; momentum = mass x velocity
Mass of person = 72 kg and we have momentum as 34.405 kg·m/s
Thus;
34.405 = 72 x velocity
Velocity = 34.405/72
Velocity = 0.4778 m/s
