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

What is the input of energy for a device that provides 50 units of useful energy and has an efficiency of 0.55?
ki77a [65]

If that's the case, then  

                          50 units = 0.55 x the input energy

Divide each side by  0.55 :        

                   50 units/0.55  =  the input energy =

Describe how work is done by a skater pulling in her arms during a spin. In particular, identify the force she exerts on each ar
liberstina [14]

Answer:

 ∑ τ =0,  L₀ = L_{f}

Explanation:

In a circular turning movement, when the arms are extended and then contracted in two possibilities:

- They are lowered the force of gravity is what pulls them, the tension of the muscle becomes zero to allow this movement.

    In this movement the force is vertical(gravity) and the movement of the center of mass of each arm is vertical, so that the work is the weight value of the arm by the distance traveled by the center of mass.

- Another possibility is that the arms have stuck to the body, in this case the person's muscles perform the force, this force is horizontal and the displacement is the horizontal of the center of mass of the arms from the extended position to the contracted

 

In these movements the torque of the external force is equal for each arm, but in the opposite direction, so they are canceled where a net torque of zero, this causes the angular momentum to be preserved, which changes is the moment of inertia of the system and therefore you must also change the angular velocity to keep your product constant

          ∑ τ =0

                L₀ = L_{f}

              I₀ w₀ = I w

Explain electrostatic force
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Electrostatics is a branch of physics that studies electric charges at rest. Since classical physics, it has been known that some materials, such as amber, attract lightweight particles after rubbing. The Greek word for amber, or electron, was thus the source of the word 'electricity'.

Which style of painting is the Peale family known for?
Misha Larkins [42]

The correct answer is option B, representational

All the painters in Peale family were involved in paintings which represent the day today life activities or were portraits or mimic some natural forms.  

Charles Willson Peale , the head of the Peale family was known for painting sixty portraits of the first American president, George Washington. He also painted portraits of portraits of notable people of the society such as  Benjamin Franklin,  Thomas Jefferson etc.  

Most of the paintings of peale family were based on the theme of family, art and science. Six of Peale’s son were known for their renaissance paintings. His oldest son Raphelle was known for still life paintings.  

Titian Ramsay Peale, Charles’ youngest son was a naturalist painter.
