<u>Answer</u>:

Say no!

Explanation:

<u>Remember</u>, this scenario is an ethical dilemma. Been ethical implies doing what's professionally right, and as such saying no to that request is the right need to do. In the workplace a company's policies should be obeyed always by individual employees even though some may resent it.

The steady-state data listed below are claimed for a power cycle operating between hot and cold reservoirs at 1200K and 400K, re

Anni [7]

Answer:

a) W_cycle = 200 KW , n_th = 33.33 % , Irreversible

b) W_cycle = 600 KW , n_th = 100 % , Impossible

c) W_cycle = 400 KW , n_th = 66.67 % , Reversible

Explanation:

Given:

- The temperatures for hot and cold reservoirs are as follows:

TL = 400 K

TH = 1200 K

Find:

For each case W_cycle , n_th ( Thermal Efficiency ) :

(a) QH = 600 kW, QC = 400 kW

(b) QH = 600 kW, QC = 0 kW

- Determine whether the cycle operates reversibly, operates irreversibly, or is impossible.

Solution:

- The work done by the cycle is given by first law of thermodynamics:

W_cycle = QH - QC

- For categorization of cycle is given by second law of thermodynamics which states that:

n_th < n_max ...... irreversible

n_th = n_max ...... reversible

n_th > n_max ...... impossible

- Where n_max is the maximum efficiency that could be achieved by a cycle with Hot and cold reservoirs as follows:

n_max = 1 - TL / TH = 1 - 400/1200 = 66.67 %

And, n_th = W_cycle / QH

a) QH = 600 kW, QC = 400 kW

- The work done by cycle according to First Law is:

W_cycle = 600 - 400 = 200 KW

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle is given by n_th:

n_th = W_cycle / QH

n_th = 200 / 600 = 33.33 %

- The type of process according to second Law of thermodynamics:

n_th = 33.333 % n_max = 66.67 %

n_th < n_max

Hence, Irreversible Process

b) QH = 600 kW, QC = 0 kW

- The work done by cycle according to First Law is:

W_cycle = 600 - 0 = 600 KW

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle is given by n_th:

n_th = W_cycle / QH

n_th = 600 / 600 = 100 %

- The type of process according to second Law of thermodynamics:

n_th = 100 % n_max = 66.67 %

n_th > n_max

Hence, Impossible Process

c) QH = 600 kW, QC = 200 kW

- The work done by cycle according to First Law is:

W_cycle = 600 - 200 = 400 KW

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle is given by n_th:

n_th = W_cycle / QH

n_th = 400 / 600 = 66.67 %

- The type of process according to second Law of thermodynamics:

n_th = 66.67 % n_max = 66.67 %

n_th = n_max

Hence, Reversible Process

A conical enlargement in a vertical pipeline is 5 ft long and enlarges the pipe diameter from 12 in. to 24 in. diameter. Calcula

makkiz [27]

Answer:

F_y = 151319.01N = 15.132 KN

Explanation:

From the linear momentum equation theory, since flow is steady, the y components would be;

-V1•ρ1•V1•A1 + V2•ρ2•V2•A2 = P1•A1 - P2•A2 - F_y

We are given;

Length; L = 5ft = 1.52.

Initial diameter;d1 = 12in = 0.3m

Exit diameter; d2 = 24 in = 0.6m

Volume flow rate of water; Q2 = 10 ft³/s = 0.28 m³/s

Initial pressure;p1 = 30 psi = 206843 pa

Thus,

initial Area;A1 = π•d1²/4 = π•0.3²/4 = 0.07 m²

Exit area;A2 = π•d2²/4 = π•0.6²/4 = 0.28m²

Now, we know that volume flow rate of water is given by; Q = A•V

Thus,

At exit, Q2 = A2•V2

So, 0.28 = 0.28•V2

So,V2 = 1 m/s

When flow is incompressible, we often say that ;

Initial mass flow rate = exit mass flow rate.

Thus,

ρ1 = ρ2 = 1000 kg/m³

Density of water is 1000 kg/m³

And A1•V1 = A2•V2

So, V1 = A2•V2/A1

So, V1 = 0.28 x 1/0.07

V1 = 4 m/s

So, from initial equation of y components;

-V1•ρ1•V1•A1 + V2•ρ2•V2•A2 = P1•A1 - P2•A2 - F_y

Where F_y is vertical force of enlargement pressure and P2 = 0

Thus, making F_y the subject;

F_y = P1•A1 + V1•ρ1•V1•A1 - V2•ρ2•V2•A2

Plugging in the relevant values to get;

F_y = (206843 x 0.07) + (1² x 1000 x 0.07) - (4² x 1000 x 0.28)

F_y = 151319.01N = 15.132 KN

A buret is a device designed to precisely dispense liquids. The scale is calibrated in mL with the zero point at the top with nu

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

As there was no attached picture, I will explain how to take the measurement of liquids in any buret which you can then apply to the specific question

Explanation:

A buret is a laboratory apparatus used to precisely measure the volume of liquids (usually alkalise or bases) used in a titration experiment. The standard buret has a capacity of 50 ml and graduated in 0.1ml though burets with smaller capacities exist.

From the question, your buret is filled to the top (0.00ml) with liquid. It is very important when taking buret readings to place the buret below your eye level so that the bottom meniscus (lower part of the liquid) can be read.

To take the buret reading, note your initial buret reading (in this case 0.00ml) then titrate the liquid base in the buret against the acid by opening the tap located at the bottom of the buret.

When the titration or reaction is complete, note the final reading against the calibration of buret. You can do this by observing the lower meniscus of the liquid remaining in the buret. (Remember to keep the buret at eye level to avoid parallax error),

The difference between your final buret reading and the initial buret reading gives you the precise volume of liquid used in the reaction.
