Air as an ideal gas enters a diffuser operating at steady state at 5 bar, 280 K with a velocity of 510 m/s. The exit velocity is

Nataly [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculating the exit temperature for K = 1.4

The value of $c_p$ is determined via the expression:

$c_p = \frac{KR}{K_1}$

where ;

R = universal gas constant = $\frac{8.314 \ J}{28.97 \ kg.K}$

k = constant = 1.4

$c_p = \frac{1.4(\frac{8.314}{28.97} )}{1.4 -1}$

$c_p= 1.004 \ kJ/kg.K$

The derived expression from mass and energy rate balances reduce for the isothermal process of ideal gas is :

$0=(h_1-h_2)+\frac{(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2}$ ------ equation(1)

we can rewrite the above equation as :

$0 = c_p(T_1-T_2)+ \frac{(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2}$

$T_2 =T_1+ \frac{(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2 c_p}$

where:

$T_1 = 280 K \\ \\ v_1 = 510 m/s \\ \\ v_2 = 120 m/s \\ \\c_p = 1.0004 \ kJ/kg.K$

$T_2= 280+\frac{((510)^2-(120)^2)}{2(1.004)} *\frac{1}{10^3}$

$T_2 = 402.36 \ K$

Thus, the exit temperature = 402.36 K

The exit pressure is determined by using the relation: $\frac{T_2}{T_1} = (\frac{P_2}{P_1})^\frac{k}{k-1}$

$P_2=P_1(\frac{T_2}{T_1})^\frac{k}{k-1}$

$P_2 = 5 (\frac{402.36}{280} )^\frac{1.4}{1.4-1}$

$P_2 = 17.79 \ bar$

Therefore, the exit pressure is 17.79 bar

A hand lifts a block vertically upward at constant velocity. The work done by gravity on the block ____ if the system consists o

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

If the system consists of the block only, the work done by the gravity is negative.

If the system consists of the block and the earth the work done by the gravity is zero.

Explanation:

If the system consists of the block only, then the system experiences two external forces: one exerted by the hand that lifts the block vertically upward and other exerted by the earth (gravity), which is opposed to the movement of the system, so the work done by gravity is negative.

On the other hand, if the system consists of the block and the earth, then only exists a external force which is the exerted by the hand. So, the force exerted by gravity is zero.

Which quantity can be calculated using Newton’s second law of motion?

DiKsa [7]

Newton's 2nd law of motion:

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

The law shows the relationship among an object's mass
and acceleration, and the net force acting on it.

If you know any two of the quantities in the formula,
the law can be used to calculate the third one.

This illustration shows two opposing forces pulling on a wagon. Which description best describes how the wagon will move?

Talja [164]

Answer:

The wagon will move to the right.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 30 N

Direction of the wagon =.?

To determine the direction in which the wagon will move, we shall determine the net force acting on the wagon. This can be obtained as follow:

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 30 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fᵣ – Fₗ

Fₙ = 30 – 10

Fₙ = 20 N to the right

From the calculations made above, the net force acting on the wagon is 20 N to the right. Hence the wagon will move to the right.
