To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to heat exchange in the vegetable and water.

By definition the exchange of heat is given by

Q =mc\Delta T

where,

m = mass

c = specific heat

\Delta T = Change in temperature

Therefore the total heat exchange is given as

\Delta Q = Q_w+Q_v

\Delta Q = m_wc_w(T_i-T_f)+m_vc_v(T_i-T_f)

Our values are given as,

Total mass is M_T = 200lb ,however the mass of solid vegetable and water is given as,

m_v= 0.4*200lb = 80lb

m_w=0.6*200lb=120lb

T_i = 183\°F\\T_f = 22\°F\\c_w = 1Btu/lbF\\c_v = 0.24Btu/lbF

Replacing at our equation we have,

\Delta Q = m_wc_w(T_i-T_f)+m_vc_v(T_i-T_f)

\Delta Q = (120)(1)(183-22)+(80)(0.24)(183-22)

\Delta Q = 22411.2Btu

Therefore the heat removed is 22411.2 Btu

Question 33
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

A. The waves in the water travel faster and at a higher frequency than they travel on land.

Explanation:

The main reason why human ears can hear dolphins' vocalizations while under the water but cannot hear them well on land is because water is denser than air and air particles travel faster in denser particles.

Denser particles also ensures that the frequency of the waves move faster which in turn produces a faster and louder result.

An object moving at a constant speed of 25 m/s is making a turn with a radius of curvature of 7 m (this is the radius of the "ki
prisoha [69]

Answer:

- 278.34 kg m/s^2

Explanation:

The rate of the change of momentum is the same as the force.

The force that an object feels when moviming in a circular motion is given by:

F = -mrω^2

Where ω is the angular speed and r is the radius of the circumference

Aditionally, the tangential velocity of the body is given as:

v = rω

The question tells us that

v = 25 m/s

r = 7m

mv = 78 kg m/s

Therefore:

m = (78 kg m/s) / (25 m/s) = 3.12 kg

ω = (25 m/s) / (7 m) = 3.57 (1/s)

Now, we can calculate the force or rate of change of momentum:

F = - (3.12 kg) (7 m)(3.57 (1/s))^2

F = - 278.34 kg m/s^2
