Answer:

Energy absorbed or hidden when water evaporates

Explanation:

The heat that is required to make a phase change is known as latent heat.

A phase change occurs when matter changes state. For example from solid to liquid, from liquid to gas, among others.

When changing from liquid to gas (for example when water evaporates), the heat necessary for this to happen is called latent heat of vaporization. The word latent means hidden, because a change in temperature is not perceived during the phase change, even when heat is being added, thus it is said that the heat is hidden or latent.

So the answer is:

  • Energy absorbed or hidden when water evaporates.

*Another type of latent heat is the latent heat of fusion, which is when a solid becomes liquid.

The calculated coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.33125.'

The rate of kinetic friction the friction force to normal force ratio experienced by a body moving on a dry, uneven surface is known as k. The friction coefficient is the ratio of the normal force pressing two surfaces together to the frictional force preventing motion between them. Typically, it is represented by the Greek letter mu (). In terms of math, is equal to F/N, where F stands for frictional force and N for normal force.

given mass of the block=10 kg

spring constant k= 2250 Nm

now according to principal of conservation of energy we observe,

the energy possessed by the block initially is reduced by the friction between the points B and C and rest is used up in work done by the spring.

mgh= μ (mgl) +1/2 kx²

10 x 10 x 3= μ(600) +(1125) (0.09)

μ(600) =300 - 101.25

μ = 198.75÷600

μ =0.33125

The complete question is- A 10.0−kg block is released from rest at point A in Fig The track is frictionless except for the portion between point B and C, which has a length of 6.00m the block travels down the track, hits a spring of force constant 2250N/m, and compresses the spring 0.300m form its equilibrium position before coming to rest momentarily. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the rough surface between point Band (C)

Lady_Fox [76]
     Your answer would be true. Because if we didn't have those pieces of evidence, we wouldn't know about a lot of the ancient civilizations that we know today without that. Small pieces of evidence like that can help us to determine how they lived, or what they used to do, or even what they ate.

A counterflow double-pipe heat exchanger is used to heat water from 20°C to 80°C at a rate of 1.2 kg/s. The heating is to be com
bixtya [17]

Answer:L=109.16 m

Explanation:

Given

initial temperature =20^{\circ}C

Final Temperature =80^{\circ}C

mass flow rate of cold fluid \dot{m_c}=1.2 kg/s

Initial Geothermal water temperature T_h_i=160^{\circ}C

Let final Temperature be T

mass flow rate of geothermal water \dot{m_h}=2 kg/s

diameter of inner wall d_i=1.5 cm

U_{overall}=640 W/m^2K

specific heat of water c=4.18 kJ/kg-K

balancing energy

Heat lost by hot fluid=heat gained by cold Fluid

\dot{m_c}c(T_h_i-T_h_e)= \dot{m_h}c(80-20)

2\times (160-T)=1.2\times (80-20)

160-T=36

T=124^{\circ}C

As heat exchanger is counter flow therefore

\Delta T_1=160-80=80^{\circ}C

\Delta T_2=124-20=104^{\circ}C

LMTD=\frac{\Delta T_1-\Delta T_2}{\ln (\frac{\Delta T_1}{\Delta T_2})}

LMTD=\frac{80-104}{\ln \frac{80}{104}}

LMTD=91.49^{\circ}C

heat lost or gain by Fluid is equal to heat transfer in the heat exchanger

\dot{m_c}c(80-20)=U\cdot A\cdot (LMTD)

A=\frac{1.2\times 4.184\times 1000\times 60}{640\times 91.49}=5.144 m^2

A=\pi DL=5.144

L=\frac{5.144}{\pi \times 0.015}

L=109.16 m

Crystal can ride her bike 10 miles in 2.1 hours. What is her velocity
masha68 [24]

Answer:

v = 4.76 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

The distance traveled by her bike, d = 10 miles

The time of her travel, t = 2.1 m/s

The velocity of an object is defined as the distance traveled by the object to the time of travel. Therefore,

                          V = d/t   m/s

                              = 10 / 2.1

                              = 4.76 m/s

Hence, The velocity of her bike is, V = 4.76 m/s
