USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Option C

In the membrane that covers axons

Explanation:

Voltage-regulated channels allow for selective passage of different beneficial ions such as potassium and are found on the surface of a wide variety of cells such as nerve, muscle, and secretory cells. They mainly regulate cell membrane excitability, repetitive low frequency firing in some neurons, and recover the nerve fiber membrane.

Liquid water enters an adiabatic piping system at 15°C at a rate of 8kg/s. If the water temperature rises by 0.2°C during flow d

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

23 W/K

Explanation:

Entropy of water at 15°C is 224.5 J/kg/K.

Entropy of water at 15.2°C is approximately 227.4 J/kg/K (interpolated).

The increase in entropy is therefore:

227.4 J/kg/K − 224.5 J/kg/K = 2.9 J/kg/K.

So the rate of entropy generation is:

2.9 J/kg/K × 8 kg/s = 23.2 W/K

Rounded to two significant figures, the rate is 23 W/K.

Air initially at 120 psia and 500o F is expanded by an adiabatic turbine to 15 psia and 200o F. Assuming air can be treated as a

Goshia [24]

Answer:

a. Wa = 73.14 Btu/lbm

b. Sgen = 0.05042 Btu/lbm °R

c. Isentropic efficiency is 70.76%

d. Minimum specific work for compressor W = -146.2698 Btu/lbm [It is negative because work is being done on the compressor]

Explanation:

Complete question is as follows;

Air initially at 120 psia and 500oF is expanded by an adiabatic turbine to 15 psia and 200oF. Assuming air can be treated as an ideal gas and has variable specific heat.

a) Determine the specific work output of the actual turbine (Btu/lbm).

b) Determine the amount of specific entropy generation during the irreversible process (Btu/lbm R).

c) Determine the isentropic efficiency of this turbine (%).

d) Suppose the turbine now operates as an ideal compressor (reversible and adiabatic) where the initial pressure is 15 psia, the initial temperature is 200 oF, and the ideal exit state is 120 psia. What is the minimum specific work the compressor will be required to operate (Btu/lbm)?

A five legged intersection has safety issues. in 2018, the number of crashes reported was 48 and the average 24 hour volume ente

sashaice [31]

Answer:

The crash rate is 22 vehicles per 1 million vehicles

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to determine the crash rate per million vehicles.

Crash rate is calculated using average crash frequency.

The crash rates are calculated based on the number of crashes per million vehicle miles travelled in a year.

Mathematically;

crash rate = (48 * 1,000,000)/ [(980 + 1560 + 1230 + 900 + 1435)* 365]

= 48,000,000/(6105*365)

= 21.54 approximately 22
