The power grid is the system that transfers electricity to homes and businesses. A power plant produces electricity. The output

electricity is an input for the wires that lead to power sub stations. The power substations regulate the flow of electricity and send it as an output through different wires. Transformers adjust the electricity along the way until it becomes an input for a home. What is the primary type of input and output that is used in the power grid system

Answer:

First of all, input electricity is just indicating the direction of that energy, in this case, it refers to the  electrity that is being received in a sub-system. On the other hand, output electricity is the energy that is being produced to another sub-system.

For example, in this case the power plant represents the production of energy, which offer output electricity because produces the energy for other sub-system. Then, those sub-systems receive this energy, that's why at this level it becomes input energy.

<em>Being said that, we can say that energy is the primary type of input and output, it's what is being used in the power g</em>rid.

efrigerant-134a is expanded isentropically from 600 kPa and 70°C at the inlet of a steady-flow turbine to 100 kPa at the outlet.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Inlet : v_i=0.0646\frac{m}{s}

Outlet:  v_o=0.171\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

1) Notation and important concepts

Flow of mass represent "the mass of a substance which passes per unit of time".

Flow rate represent "a measure of the volume of liquid that moves in a certain amount of time"

Specific volume is "the ratio of the substance's volume to its mass. It is the reciprocal of density."

Isentropic process is a "thermodynamic process, in which the entropy of the fluid or gas remains constant".

We know that the flow of mass is given by the following expression

\dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}, where \dot{V} represent the flow rate and \upsilon the specific volume at the pressure and temperature given.

A_i=0.5m^2 is the inlet area

P_i=600Kpa pressure at the inlet area

T_i=70C temperature at the inlet area

A_o=1m^2 is the outlet area

P_o=100Kpa pressure at the outlet area

T_o=C temperature at the outlet area

\dot{m}=0.75\frac{kg}{s} represent the flow of mass

If we look at the first figure attached Table A-13 we see that the specific volume for the inlet condition is

\upsilon_i =0.04304\frac{kg}{m^3} and the entropy is h_i=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}=h_o

With the value of entropy and the outlet pressure of 100 Kpa we can find we specific volume at the outlet condition since w ehave the entropy h_o=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}

Since on the table we don't have the exact value we need to interpolate between these two values (see the second figure attached)

h_1=1.0531\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_1=0.22473\frac{kg}{m^3}

h_2=1.0829\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_2=0.23349\frac{kg}{m^3}

Our interest value would be given using interpolation like this:

\upsilon=0.22473+\frac{(0.23349-0.22473)}{(1.0829-1.0531)}(1.0645-1.0531)=0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}

2) Solution to the problem

Now since we have all the info required to solve the problem we can find the velocities on this way.

We know from the definition of flow of mass that \dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}, but since \dot{V}=Av we have this:

\dot{m}=\frac{Av}{\upsilon}

If we solve from the velocity v we have this:

v=\frac{\upsilon \dot{m}}{A}   (*)

And now we just need to replace the values into equation (*)

For the inlet case:

v_i=\frac{\upsilon_i \dot{m}}{A_i}=\frac{0.043069\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{0.5m^2}=0.0646\frac{m}{s}

For the oulet case:

v_o=\frac{\upsilon_o \dot{m}}{A_o}=\frac{0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{1m^2}=0.171\frac{m}{s}

A cat walks along a plank with mass M= 6.00 kg. The plank is supported by two sawhorses. The center of mass of the plank is a di
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

d₂ = 1.466 m

Explanation:

In this case we must use the rotational equilibrium equations

        Στ = 0

        τ = F r

we must set a reference system, we use with origin at the easel B and an axis parallel to the plank , we will use that the counterclockwise ratio is positive

      + W d₁ - w_cat d₂ = 0

      d₂ = W / w d₁

      d₂ = M /m d₁

      d₂ = 5.00 /2.9    0.850

      d₂ = 1.466 m

A car moving at 30 m/s slows uniformly to a speed of 10 m/s in a time of 5 s. Determine 1. The acceleration of the car. 2. The d
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity , u = 30 m/s

final velocity , v = 10 m/s

time , t = 5 seconds

1. Acceleration = v - u / t

= 10 - 30 / 5

= -20 / 5

= <u><em>- 4 m/s</em></u>

A 25.0 kg box of textbooks rests on a loading ramp that makes an angle α with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic frictio
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The minimum angle at which the box starts to slip (rounded to the next whole number) is α=19°

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must start by drawing a sketch of the problem and its corresponding fre body diagram (See picture attached).

So, when we are talking about friction, there are two types of friction coefficients. Static and kinetic. Static friction happens when the box is not moving no matter what force you apply to it. You get to a certain force that is greater than the static friction and the box starts moving, it is then when the kinetic friction comes into play (kinetic friction is generally smaller than static friction). So in order to solve this problem, we must find an angle such that the static friction is the same as the force applie by gravity on the box. For it to be easier to analyze, we must incline the axis of coordinates, just as shown on the picture attached.

After doing an analysis of the free-body diagram, we can build our set of equations by using Newton's thrid law:

\sum F_{x}=0

we can see there are only two forces in x, which are the weight on x and the static friction, so:

-W_{x}+f_{s}=0

when solving for the static friction we get:

f_{s}=W_{x}

We know the weight is found by multiplying the mass by the acceleration of gravity, so:

W=mg

and:

W_{x}=mg sin \alpha

we can substitute this on our sum of forces equation:

f_{s}=mg sin \alpha

the static friction will depend on the normal force applied by the plane on the box, static friction is found by using the following equation:

f_{s}=N\mu_{s}

so we can substitute this on our equation:

N\mu_{s}=mg sin \alpha

but we don't know what the normal force is, so we need to find it by doing a sum of forces in y.

\sum F_{y}=0

In the y direction we got two forces as well, the normal force and the force due to gravity, so we get:

N-W_{y}=0

when solving for N we get:

N=W_{y}

When seeing the free-body diagram we can determine that:

W_{y}=mg cos \alpha

so we can substitute that in the sum of y-forces equation, so we get:

N=mg cos \alpha

we can go ahead and substitute this equation in the sum of forces in x equation so we get:

mg cos \alpha \mu_{s}=mg sin \alpha

we can divide both sides of the equation into mg so we get:

cos \alpha \mu_{s}=sin \alpha

as you may see, the angle doesn't depend on the mass of the box, only on the static coefficient of friction. When solving for \mu_{s} we get:

\mu_{s}=\frac{sin \alpha}{cos \alpha}

when simplifying this we get that:

\mu_{s}=tan \alpha

now we can solve for the angle so we get:

\alpha= tan^{-1}(\mu_{s})

and we can substitute the given value so we get:

\alpha= tan^{-1}(0.350)

which yields:

α=19.29°

which rounds to:

α=19°
