Answer:

The effect of lowering the condenser pressure on different parameters is explained below.

Explanation:

The simple ideal Rankine cycle is shown in figure.

Effect of lowering the condenser pressure on

(a). Pump work input :- By lowering the condenser pressure the pump work increased.

(b) Turbine work output :- By lowering the condenser pressure the turbine work increased.

(c). Heat supplied :- Heat supplied increases.

(d). Heat rejected :- The heat rejected may increased or decreased.

(e). Efficiency :- Cycle efficiency is increased.

(f). Moisture content at turbine exit :- Moisture content increases.

A. What is the RMS speed of Helium atoms when the temperature of the Helium gas is 343.0 K? (Possibly useful constants: the atom

kkurt [141]

Answer:

(a) 1462.38 m/s

(b) 2068.13 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

The Kinetic energy of the atom can be given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/k

K.E = Kinetic Energy of atoms = 343 K

T = absolute temperature of atoms

The K.E is also given as:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

Comparing both equations:

(1/2)mv² = (3/2)KT

v² = 3KT/m

v = √[3KT/m]

where,

m = mass of Helium = (4 A.M.U)(1.66 X 10⁻²⁷ kg/ A.M.U) = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

v = RMS Speed of Helium Atoms = ?

Therefore,

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(343 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 1462.38 m/s</u>

(b)

For double temperature:

T = 2 x 343 K = 686 K

all other data remains same:

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(686 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 2068.13 m/s</u>

A uniform magnetic field passes through a horizontal circular wire loop at an angle 19.5 ∘ from the vertical. The magnitude of t

nlexa [21]

To solve this problem, we will apply the concepts related to Faraday's law that describes the behavior of the emf induced in the loop. Remember that this can be expressed as the product between the number of loops and the variation of the magnetic flux per unit of time. At the same time the magnetic flux through a loop of cross sectional area is,

$\Phi = BA Cos \theta$

Here,

$\theta$ = Angle between areal vector and magnetic field direction.

According to Faraday's law, induced emf in the loop is,

$\epsilon= -N \frac{d\Phi }{dt}$

$\epsilon = -N \frac{(BAcos\theta)}{dt}$

$\epsilon = -NAcos\theta \frac{dB}{dt}$

$\epsilon = -N\pi r^2 cos\theta \frac{d}{dt} ( ( 3.75 T ) + ( 3.05T/s ) t + ( -6.95 T/s^2 ) t^2)$

$\epsilon = -N\pi r^2 cos\theta( (3.05T/s)-(13.9T/s)t )$

At time $t = 5.71s$ , Induced emf is,

$\epsilon = -(1) \pi (0.220m)^2 cos(19.5\°)( (3.05T/s)-(13.9T/s)(5.71s))$

$\epsilon = 10.9V$

Therefore the magnitude of the induced emf is 10.9V

A certain copper wire has a resistance of 13.0 Ω . At some point along its length the wire was cut so that the resistance of one

alekssr [168]

Answer with Explanation:

Let r be the resistance of short piece of copper wire.

Resistance of copper wire=R= $13\Omega$

Resistance is directly proportional to length.

If a wire has greater resistance then,the wire will be greater in length.

Therefore,resistance of long piece of wire=7r

Total resistance of copper wire=Sum of resistance of two piece of wires

$r+7r=13$

$8r=13$

$r=\frac{13}{8}$ ohm

Resistance of long piece of wire= $7\times\frac{13}{8}=\frac{91}{8}\Omega$

Resistance of short piece of wire = $\frac{13}{8}\Omega$

Resistivity of wire and cross section area of wire remains same .

Let L be the total length of wire and L' be the length of short piece of wire.

We know that

$R=\frac{\rho L}{A}$ = $\frac{\rho}{A}L=KL$

$\frac{R}{L}=K$

Where K= $\frac{\rho}{A}$ =Constant

Using the formula

$\frac{13}{L}=\frac{\frac{13}{8}}{L'}$

$\frac{L'}{L}=\frac{13}{8}\times \frac{1}{13}=\frac{1}{8}$

$L'=\frac{L}{8}$

Length of short piece of wire=L'= $\frac{L}{8}$

Length of long piece of wire= $L-L'=L-\frac{L}{8}=\frac{8L-L}{8}=\frac{7}{8}L$

% of length of short piece of wire= $\frac{\frac{L}{8}}{L}\times 100=12.5%$ %

The resistance of the short piece= $\frac{13}{8}\Omega$

The resistance of the long piece= $\frac{91}{8}\Omega$
