Answer:

Explanation:

CO, carbon monoxide is a toxic gas. It casues asphixiation on people and animals by interfering with hemoglobin, not allowing blood to transport oxygen to the cells in the body.

The normal emissions resulting from the combustion of fussil fuels are CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water). Carbon monoxide is formed by an incomplete combustion of fossil fuels or carbon containing fuels in general, this not only produces toxic gas, but also is an inefficient combustion that wastes energy.

There is an electric field near the Earth's surface whose magnitude is about 145 V/m . How much energy is stored per cubic meter

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

u_e = 9.3 * 10^-8 J / m^3 ( 2 sig. fig)

Explanation:

Given:

- Electric Field strength near earth's surface E = 145 V / m

- permittivity of free space (electric constant) e_o = 8.854 *10^-12 s^4 A^2 / m^3 kg

Find:

- How much energy is stored per cubic meter in this field?

Solution:

- The solution requires the energy density stored between earth's surface and the source of electric field strength. The formula for charge density is given by:

u_e = 0.5*e_o * E^2

- Plug in the values given:

u_e = 0.5*8.854 *10^-12 *145^2

u_e = 9.30777 * 10^-8 J/m^3

A gas turbine operates with a regenerator and two stages of reheating and intercooling. Air enters this engine at 14 psia and 60

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm

Explanation:

Given:

- T_1 = 60 F = 520 R

- T_6 = 940 = 1400 R

- Heat ratio for air k = 1.4

- Compression ratio r = 3

- W_net,out = 1000 hp

Find:

mass flow rate of the air

rates of heat addition and rejection

Solution:

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_2, T_4, T_10:

T_2 = T_1 * r^(k-1/k)

T_2 = T_4 = T_10 = 520*3^(.4/1.4) = 711.744 R

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_7, T_5, T_9:

T_7 = T_6 * r^(-k-1/k)

T_7 = T_5 = T_9 = 1400*3^(-.4/1.4) = 1022.84 R

- The mass flow rate is obtained by:

flow(m) = W_net,out / 2*c_p*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

flow(m) = 1000*.7068 / 2*0.24*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

- The heat input is as follows:

Q_in = c_p*(T_6 - T_5)

Q_in = 0.24*(1400 - 1022.84)

Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

- The heat output is as follows:

Q_out = c_p*(T_10 - T_1)

Q_out = 0.24*(711.744 - 520)

Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

1) For preparation of plan :

It is to gather the team and creating the timeline. Gathering the inputs for the plan and confirming the mission and vision then launching the strategy.

2) A mission would describe about the company and the specification of the company

A vision is the long term or future state of the organization to achieve in a time frame.

Both would include the OAS statements and strategic shifts.

3) The OAS and strategic shift would help to create a balanced score card that would help for data gathering and analysis

This would include the financial, customers goal, Process goals, people's goals etc.

4) To create and develop the plan's framework:

To set the objective for high level organizational goals

To measure the and accomplish the objectives

To take initiatives to achieve the objectives

Affect the amount and rate the alcohol reaches the<br> bloodstream.

just olya [345]

Answer:

Answer to the following question is as follows;

Explanation:

The amount of alcohol consumption can be influenced by a variety of things, including food.

The proportion and pace at which alcohol reaches the circulation is affected by drinking rate, body mass, and the size of the beverage. Alcohol enters your system as soon as it reaches that first sip, as per the National Institute on Drug Abuse and Alcoholism. After 10 minutes, the results are noticeable.
