hram777 [196]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

true

Explanation:

True, there are several types of polymers, thermoplastics, thermosets and elastomers.

Thermosets are characterized by having a reticulated structure, so they have low elasticity and cannot be stretched when heated.

Because of the above, thermosetting polymers burn when heated.

An automobile weighing 2500 lbf increases its gravitational potential energy by a magnitude of 2.25 × 104 Btu in going from an e
Mila [183]

Answer:

The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.

Explanation:

The automobile weight is 2500 lbf.

The automobile increases its gravitational potential energy in 2.25 * 10^4 BTU. It means the mobile has increased its elevation.

The initial elevation is of 5183 ft.  

The first step is to convert Btu of potential energy to adequate units to work with data previously presented.

British Thermal Unit - 1 BTU = 778.17  lbf*ft

2.25 * 10^4 BTU (\frac{778.17 lbf*ft}{1BTU} ) = 1.75 * 10^7 lbf * ft

Now we have the gravitational potential energy in lbf*ft. Weight of the mobile is in lbf and the elevation is in ft. We can evaluate the expression for gravitational potential energy as follows:  

Ep = m*g*(h_2 - h_1)\\ W = m*g  

Where m is the mass of the automobile, g is the gravity, W is the weight of the automobile showed in the problem.  

h_2 is the final elevation and h_1 is the initial elevation.

Replacing W in the Ep equation

Ep = W*(h_2 -h_1)\\(h_2 -h_1) = \frac{Ep}{W} \\h_2 = h_1 + \frac{Ep}{W}\\\\

Finally, the next step is to replace the variables of the problem.  

h_2 = 5183 ft + \frac{1.75 * 10^7 lbf*ft}{2500 lbf}\\h_2 = 5183 ft + 70003.5 ft\\h_2 = 12186.5 ft

The elevation at the high point of the road is 12186.5 in ft.

Water vapor at 1.0 MPa, 300°C enters a turbine operating at steady state and expands to 15 kPa. The work developed by the turbin
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%

b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)

Please kindly see explaination and attachment.

Explanation:

a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%

b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)

The Isentropic efficiency of a turbine is a comparison of the actual power output with the Isentropic case.

Entropy can be defined as the thermodynamic quantity representing the unavailability of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system.

Please refer to attachment for step by step solution of the question.

What are the main causes of injuries when using forklifts?
vagabundo [1.1K]

The forklift overturning is a very common way of getting injured from a forklift. Overturning the forklift means it tips over onto it's side due to the operator turning it too fast.
