Answer:

T_f = 24.32 degree celcius

Explanation:

given details:

Q = 6279 kJ/day

V = 25 gal

T = 23°C

we know that heat released can be written as

Q = m*Cp*(T_f -T_i)

Q = 6279 kJ/24 h *2h = 523.25 kJ

V = 25 gal = 94.6353 l tr

density of water is 1 kg/cm3

so, m = 94.65 kg

then

523.25 = 94.65*4.18* (T_f - 23)

T_f = 24.32°C

An old light bulb draws only 54.3 W, rather than its original 60.0 W, due to evaporative thinning of its filament. By what facto
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of old light bulb = 54.3 W

Power = 60 W

We know that,

The resistance is inversely proportional to the diameter.

R\propto\dfrac{1}{D}

The power is inversely proportional to the resistance.

P\propto\dfrac{1}{R}

P\propto D^2

We need to calculate the factor of the diameter of the filament reduced

Using relation of power and diameter

\dfrac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}=\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}=\dfrac{54.3}{60}

\dfrac{D_{i}}{D_{f}}=0.95

D_{i}=0.95 D_{f}

Hence, The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

When an automobile moves with constant speed down a highway, most of the power developed by the engine is used to compensate for
uysha [10]

Answer:

F=5449 N

Explanation:

Work done is a product of force and displacement ie

Work done, W, = Force*Displacement

Power, P, is Work done/Time

P=\frac {W}{t}=\frac {FS}{t} where P is power, W is work done, F is force, S is displacement and t is time

In this case, F is the frictional force. Converting the power from hp to W, we multiply by 746 hence P=746*168=125328  W

Since displacement/time is velocity, then

P=FV where V is velocity in m/s

Making F the subject

F=\frac {P}{V}

F=\frac {125328}{23}=5449.043478  N

F=5449 N
