Answer:

The moon’s gravity is weaker than the earth gravity due to the smaller in size as compared to the earth. As there is no atmosphere present on the moon gravity, so there are fewer chances of withstanding temperature.

$9.46x10^{15}m$

(d) How many astronomical units in a light-year?

$63325AU$

(e) How many light-years in a parsec?

Explanation:

The parallax angle can be used to find out the distance using triangulation. Making a triangle between the nearby star, the Sun and the Earth, knowing that the distance between the Earth and the Sun ( $1.496x10^{11} m$ ) is defined as 1 astronomical unit:

$\tan{p} = \frac{1AU}{d}$

Where d is the distance to the star.

Since p is small it can be represent as:

$p(rad) = \frac{1AU}{d}$ (1)

Where p(rad) is the value of in radians

However, it is better to express small angles in arcseconds

$p('') = p(rad)\frac{180^\circ}{\pi rad}.\frac{60'}{1^\circ}.\frac{60''}{1'}$

$p('') = 2.06x10^5 p(rad)$

$p(rad) = \frac{p('')}{2.06x10^5}$ (2)

Then, equation 2 can be replace in equation 1:

$\frac{p('')}{2.06x10^5} = \frac{1AU}{d}$

$\frac{d}{1AU} = \frac{2.06x10^5}{p('')}$ (3)

From equation 3 it can be see that $1pc = 2.06x10^5 AU$

<em>a) How many parsecs are there in one astronomical unit? </em>

$1AU . \frac{1pc}{2.06x10^5AU}$ ⇒ $4.85x10^{-6}pc$

<em>(b) How many meters are in a parsec? </em>

$2.06x10^{5}AU . \frac{1.496x10^{11}m}{1AU}$ ⇒ $3.081x10^{16}m$

<em>(c) How many meters in a light-year? </em>

To determine the number of meters in a light-year it is necessary to use the next equation:

$x = c.t$

Where c is the speed of light ( $c = 3x10^{8}m/s$ ) and x is the distance that light travels in 1 year.

In 1 year they are 31536000 seconds

$x = (3x10^{8}m/s)(31536000s)$

$x = 9.46x10^{15}m$

<em>(d) How many astronomical units in a light-year?</em>

$9.46x10^{15}m . \frac{1AU}{1.496x10^{11}m}$ ⇒ $63325AU$

<em>(e) How many light-years in a parsec?</em>

$2.06x10^{5}AU . \frac{1ly}{63235AU}$ ⇒ $3.26ly$

7. 13 a turbine receives steam at 6 mpa, 600°c with an exit pressure of 600 kpa. Assume the turbine is adiabatic and neglect kin

AnnyKZ [126]

The work done by the turbine will be 708.2 kJ/kg. The work done by the turbine is the difference of the enthalpy at inlet and exit.

<h3 /><h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature directs the hotness or coldness of a body. In clear terms, it is the method of finding the kinetic energy of particles within an entity. Faster the motion of particles, more the temperature.

If the given turbine is assumed to be reversible;

$\rm P_I$ (Initial pressure)=60 mpa = 60 bar
