Answer:

The specific heat addition is 773.1 kJ/kg

Explanation:

from table A.5 we get the properties of air:

k=specific heat ratio=1.4

cp=specific heat at constant pressure=1.004 kJ/kg*K

We calculate the pressure range of the Brayton cycle, as follows

n=1-(1/(P2/P1)^(k-1)/k))

where n=thermal efficiency=0.5. Clearing P2/P1 and replacing values:

P2/P1=(1/0.5)^(1.4/0.4)=11.31

the temperature of the air at state 2 is equal to:

P2/P1=(T2/T1)^(k/k-1)

where T1 is the temperature of the air enters the compressor. Clearing T2

11.31=(T2/290)^(1.4/(1.4-1))

T2=580K

The temperature of the air at state 3 is equal to:

P2/P1=(T3/T4)^(k/(k-1))

11.31=(T3/675)^(1.4/(1.4-1))

T3=1350K

The specific heat addition is equal to:

q=Cp*(T3-T2)=1.004*(1350-580)=773.1 kJ/kg

In a closed system, a cart with a mass of 1.5 kg is rolling to the right at 1.4 m/s, while another cart of mass 1.0 kg is rollin
bija089 [108]

Answer: The correct option is (c.).

Explanation:

Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg

Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right

Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg

Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left

Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity

P_A=1.5 kg\times 1.4 m/s=2.1 kg m/s

P_B=1.0 kg\times (-1.4m/s)=-1.4 kg m/s

(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)

Total Momentum =P_A+P_B=2.10 kg m/s-1.40 kg m/s=0.70 kg m/s

Hence, the correct option is (c.).

A car speeds up from 13 m/s to 23 m/s in 30 seconds. What is the
Lapatulllka [165]

acceleration of the car = 0.33 m/s²

Explanation:

To calculate the acceleration of the car we use the following formula:

acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

change in velocity = 23 m/s - 13 m/s = 10 m/s

change in velocity = 10 m/s

acceleration = 10 m/s / 30 s

acceleration = 0.33 m/s²

The two measurements necessary for calculating average speed are
alisha [4.7K]

The correct answer is Option (C) distance and time

Explanation:

Average speed of any object is defined as the total distance that object travels over the time it takes to travel that distance. In other words, average speed is the total distance divided by the elapsed time.

Average \thinspace Speed = \frac{Total \thinspace Distance}{Elapsed \thinspace Time}

Therefore, as you can see in the above equation, the two measurements that are essential for the calculation of the average speed are the (total) distance and the (elapsed) time.

Hence, the correct option is C.
