Answer:

Temperature of water leaving the radiator = 160°F

Explanation:

Heat released = (ṁcΔT)

Heat released = 20000 btu/hr = 5861.42 W

ṁ = mass flowrate = density × volumetric flow rate

Volumetric flowrate = 2 gallons/min = 0.000126 m³/s; density of water = 1000 kg/m³

ṁ = 1000 × 0.000126 = 0.126 kg/s

c = specific heat capacity for water = 4200 J/kg.K

H = ṁcΔT = 5861.42

ΔT = 5861.42/(0.126 × 4200) = 11.08 K = 11.08°C

And in change in temperature terms,

10°C= 18°F

11.08°C = 11.08 × 18/10 = 20°F

ΔT = T₁ - T₂

20 = 180 - T₂

T₂ = 160°F

A turntable has an angular velocity of 3.5 rad/s. A dust bunny is on the disk of the turntable at a distance of 0.2m from the ce
diamong [38]

Answer:

E. 0.25

Explanation:

Given that

Angular speed ω = 3.5 rad/s

Distance ,r= 0.2 m

Lets take mass of dust bunny = m

We know that

Radial force F = m ω² r

The friction force on the dust bunny Fr

Fr= μ m g

To getting slung off  dust bunny from disk

m ω² r =  μ m g

ω² r =  μ  g

3.5²  x 0.2 =  μ x 10                        ( take g =10 m/s²)

μ = 0.245

μ = 0.25

Therefore answer is E

E. 0.25

The purpose of a cell (battery) is to: Question 2 options: store chemical energy and transfer it to thermal energy when a circui
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Store chemical energy and transfer it to electrical energy when a circuit is connected.

Explanation:

A battery (single cell) is a container made of one cell that can produce a particular amount of electrical energy when needed.

It works by converting chemical energy to electric energy which is then used as a power source.

It stores up chemical energy and when connected to an external circuit, it provides electrical energy (through the flow of electrical current) to the circuit.

A battery is usually made up of a positive electrode and a negative electrode.

Which statement accurately describes the motion of the objects in the ticker tape above?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: "One object speeds up before it slows to a stop "

(the top one)

Explanation:

Ok, first a little recall on how to read this type of graph.

If the points are far apart, the object is moving fast.

If the points are close together, the object is moving slow.

If the distance between the points changes then the velocity of the object changes, which means that the object is accelerated.

If we have a lot of points clustered in one location, then the object is not moving.

We can see:

The top object starts slow, then it increments the speed, then it slows down again, and then it comes to stop.

The bottom object starts fast, and it slows down.

then:

"One object speeds up before it slows to a stop "

This describes the motion of the top object, this is the only correct option that describes one of the graphs.
