A department store expects to have 225 customers and 20 employees at peak times in summer. Determine the contribution of people

to the total cooling load of the store. The average rate of heat generation from people doing light work is 115 W, and 70% of it is in sensible form.

Answer:

<em>The  contribution of people to the cooling load of the store is 19722.5 W</em>

Explanation:

Total amount of customers = 225

Total amount of employees = 20

Total amount of people in the store at that instant n = 245 people

Average rate of heat generation Q = 115 W

percentage of these heat generated that is sensible heat = 70%

Sensible heat raises the surrounding temperature. Latent heat only causes a change of state.

The total heat generated by all the people in the store = n x Q

==> 245 x 115 = 28175 W

but only 70% of this heat is sensible heat that raises the temperature of the store, therefore, the contribution of people to the cooling load of the store = 70% of 28175 W

==> 0.7 x 28175 = <em>19722.5 W</em>

When work is done on an object, where does the energy used to do the work go?
borishaifa [10]
-- If the work is done to make the object move faster, then
the work done becomes kinetic energy of the object.

-- If work is done on the object but it doesn't move any faster,
then there must be friction holding it back.  In that case, the work
that's done just to keep the object moving becomes heat, in the
places where the friction acts on it.

A car of mass 998 kilograms moving in the positive y–axis at a speed of 20 meters/second collides on ice with another car of mas
goldfiish [28.3K]
    <span> Let’s determine the initial momentum of each car.
#1 = 998 * 20 = 19,960
#2 = 1200 * 17 = 20,400

This is this is total momentum in the x direction before the collision. B is the correct answer. Since momentum is conserved in both directions, this will be total momentum is the x direction after the collision. To prove that this is true, let’s determine the magnitude and direction of the total momentum after the collision.

Since the y axis and the x axis are perpendicular to each other, use the following equation to determine the magnitude of their final momentum.

Final = √(x^2 + y^2) = √(20,400^2 + 19,960^2) = √814,561,600

This is approximately 28,541. To determine the x component, we need to determine the angle of the final momentum. Use the following equation.

Tan θ = y/x = 19,960/20,400 = 499/510
θ = tan^-1 (499/510)

The angle is approximately 43.85˚ counter clockwise from the negative x axis. To determine the x component, multiply the final momentum by the cosine of the angle.

x = √814,561,600 * cos (tan^-1 (499/510) = 20,400</span>

The universal law of gravitation states that the force of attraction between two objects depends on which quantities?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer: The answer is the masses of the objects and the distance between them

Explanation: Gravity is affected by mass and distance between two objects becuase if and object is too far the force of gravity will not be strong. The larger the object, the stronger the force of gravity will be.
