Air flows through an adiabatic turbine that is in steady operation. The air enters at 150 psia, 900oF, and 350 ft/s and leaves a

t 20 psia, 300oF, and 700 ft/s. The inlet area of the turbine is 0.1 ft2 . Determine the mass flow rate of the air and the power output of the turbine.

Answer:

1486.5\frac{Btu}{s}

Explanation:

The inlet specific volume of air is given by:

v_1=\frac{RT_1}{P_1}\\\\v_1=\frac{(0.3704\frac{psia.ft^3}{lbm.R})(1360R)}{150psia}\\\\v_1=3.358\frac{ft^3}{lbm} \ \ \ \  \ \  \ \ \...i

The mass flow rates is expressed as:

\dot m=\frac{1}{v_1}A_1V_1\\\\\dot m=\frac{1}{3.358ft^3/psia}(0.1ft^2)(350ft/s)\\\\\dot m=10.42\frac{lbm}{s}

The energy balance for the system can the be expresses in the rate form as:

E_{in}-E_{out}=\bigtriangleup \dot E=0\\\\E_{in}=E_{out}\\\\\dot m(h_1+0.5V_1^2)=\dot W_{out}+\dot m(h_2+0.5V_2^2)+Q_{out}\\\\\dot W_{out}=\dot m(h_2-h_1+0.5(V_2^2-V_1^2))=-m({cp(T_2-t_1)+0.5(V_2^2-V_1^2)})\\\\\\\dot W_{out}=-(10.42lbm/s)[(0.25\frac{Btu}{lbm.\textdegree F})(300-900)\textdegree F+0.5((700ft/s)^2-(350ft/s)^2)(\frac{1\frac{Btu}{lbm}}{25037ft^2/s^2})]\\\\\\\\=1486.5\frac{Btu}{s}

Hence, the mass flow rate of the air is 1486.5Btu/s

What is an object doing at the moment its instantaneous acceleration is zero?
Oliga [24]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of the vellocity.

Then, if the acceleration is equal zero, the object has a constant velocity or a velocity equal to zero (also constant, of course)

Then, te correct option would be option A; resting, because an object resting has instantaneuos acceleration of zero.

Think about the difference between thermal energy and temperature. How might the melting icicles gain energy without changing te
ivann1987 [24]

No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.

Hope this helped you

What is the net charge of a metal ball if there are 21,749 extra electrons in it?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Q=3.47\times 10^{-15}\ C

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of extra electrons, n = 21749

We need to find the net charge on the metal ball. Let Q is the net charge.

We know that the charge on an electron is q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

To find the net charge if there are n number of extra electrons is :

Q = n × q

Q=21749\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Q=3.47\times 10^{-15}\ C

So, the net charge on the metal ball is 3.47\times 10^{-15}\ C. Hence, this is the required solution.
