Answer:

12432 cal.

Explanation:

The process to change ice at -32 ºC to steam at 182 ºC can be divided into 5 steps:

1. Heat the ice to 0 ºC, which is the fusion temperature.

2. Melt the ice (obtaining liquid water), which is a process at constant pressure and temperature, so the liquid obtained is also at 0ºC.

3. Heat the liquid water from 0 ºC to 100 ºC, which is the vaporization normal temperature of the water.

4. Vaporization of all the water; this is also a process that occurs at constant pressure and temperature, so the produced steam will be at 100ºC.

5. Heat the steam from 100 ºC to 182 ºC.

Each process has a required energy, and the sum of the energy required for each and all of the steps is the total amount of energy required for the whole process:

E_T=E_1+E_2+E_3+E_4+E_5

E_1 is a heating process for the ice, so we know that the energy required is proportional to the temperature difference through the specific heat:

E_1=m*Cp_{sol}*(T_2-T_1)\\E_1=16g*0.5\frac{cal}{gC}*(0-(-32))=256cal

E_2 is a phase change process, so we do not use the specific heat (sensible heat), but the fusion heat (latent heat), so:

E_{2}=m*dh_{f}={16g*80\frac{cal}{g}}=1280cal

Analogously,

E_3=m*Cp_{liq}*(T_3-T_2)=16g*1.00\frac{cal}{gC}*(100-0)C = 1600 cal

E_{4}=m*{dh_{vap}}\\\\E_4=16g*540\frac{cal}{g} =8640cal

E_{5}=m*Cp_{vap}*(T_{5}-T_{4})\\E_{5}={16g*0.5\frac{cal}{gK}*(182-100)K}=656cal

Finally, the total energy required is:

E_T=256cal+1280cal+1600cal+8640cal+656cal\\E_T=12432cal

A jet is travelling at a speed of 1200 km/h and drops cargo from a height of 2.5 km above the ground Calculate the time it takes
OLEGan [10]

a) Time of flight: 22.6 s

To calculate the time it takes for the cargo to reach the ground, we just consider the vertical motion of the cargo.

The vertical position at time t is given by

y(t) = h +u_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 2.5 km = 2500 m is the initial height

u_y = 0 is the initial vertical velocity of the cargo

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

The cargo reaches the ground when

y(t) = 0

So substituting it into the equation and solving for t, we find the time of flight of the cargo:

0 = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2500)}{9.8}}=22.6 s

b) 7.5 km

The range travelled by the cargo can be calculated by considering its horizontal motion only. In fact, the horizontal motion is a uniform motion, with constant velocity equal to the initial velocity of the jet:

v_x = 1200 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=333.3 m/s

So the horizontal distance travelled is

d=v_x t

And if we substitute the time of flight,

t = 22.6 s

We find the range of the cargo:

d=(333.3)(22.6)=7533 m = 7.5 km

What happens to centripetal acceleration as the radius of curvature decreases and the speed is constant, and why
lutik1710 [3]
It increases, because the centripetal acceleration is inversely proportional to the radius of the curvature.

What is perfect machine?Why is this machine not possible in the real life?​
andrezito [222]

Explanation:

The machine whose efficiency is 100% is known as perfect machine .This machine is not possible in real life because every machine is affected by the overcoming friction due to which is efficiency become less than hundred percent .

How is velocity and instantaneous speed alike
allsm [11]
<span>velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement irrespective of the length of the path travelled while speed is the average rate of covering distance. but in the liming case where the instantaneous velocity is given as v=dx/dt where dx is the small displacement in a small interval dt, both the speed and velocity have the same magnitude and the direction of velocity is the direction of the tangent to the corresponding displacement-time curve.</span>
