A fan that consumes 20 W of electric power when operating is claimed to discharge air from a ventilated room at a rate of 1.0 kg

/s at a discharge velocity of 8 m/s. Is the claim reasonable? What if the electric power is 40 W?

Answer:

No, the claim is not reasonable for 20 W electric power consumption.

It is reasonable for 40 W electric power consumption.

Explanation:

Power = (1/2)*mass flow rate*(square of velocity)

mass flow rate = 1 kg/s

velocity = 8 m/s

square of velocity = 64 m^2 / s^2

Power = (1/2)*(1)*(64)

Power  = 32 W

For a fan that consumes 20 W power it is not possible to deliver more power than 20 W but this one is delivering 32 W hence it is a false claim.

For a fan that consumes 40 W it is indeed possible to deliver 32 W considering the efficiency. Hence this claim is reasonable.

An electric winch operates on 140 volts​ [V] and draws 6 amperes​ [A] of current. The winch has an efficiency of 64​%. The winch
Elis [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

efficiency = (energy output / energy input)

energy input = ivt where i is current = 6 A, v is volts = 140 and t time = 11 seconds

energy input = 6 × 140 × 11 = 9240 J

energy output = 0.64 × 9240 = 5913.6 J

510 pound-force = 2268.593 N

at height h, potential energy = mgh = 5913.6 J

2268.593 × h = 5913.6

h = 5913.6 / ( 2268.593) = 2.61 m

Do plastic materials have high or low ductility? Explain why.​
Flura [38]
The impact behavior of plastic materials is strongly dependent upon the temperature. At high temperatures, materials are more ductile and have high impact toughness. At low temperatures, some plastics that would be ductile at room temperature become brittle.

How many gallons of water can you collect on a roof 40'×35' in a 1" rain?​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The answer to your question should be 630, if you have a roof the size of 40 feet, by 35 feet.

If the roof is 40 inches, by 35 inches, you would have collected 4.36 inches of rain.

Explanation: To calculate this you are going to do this:

Length of the roof ______ feet * width of roof _______ feet * .6 gallons per square feet *.75 * ________ however many inches of rain

* means multiply
