The flatbed truck is traveling at the constant speed of 60 km/h up the 15‐percent grade when the 100‐kg crate which it carries i

s given a shove which imparts to it an initial relative velocity ˙ x = 3 m / s x˙=3 m/s toward the rear of the truck. If the crate slides a distance x = 2 m measured on the truck bed before coming to rest on the bed, compute the coefficient of kinetic friction μk between the crate and the truck bed.

Answer:

μ = 0.309

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction is defined as the ratio of two forces, friction force and the normal force acting on the object.

θ = arctan(15/100)= 8.531⁰

In the vertical direction:

N = mgcosθ = 100 *9.8 *cos(8.531) = 970N

law of conservation of energy implies

mgsinθ - μNx = 1/2m(v₂²-v₁²)

100*9.8*sin (8.531) - μ(970*2) = 1/2(100)(0²-3²)

150.6 - 1940μ = 450

- 1940μ = -600.6

μ = 0.309

Steam is to be condensed on the shell side of a heat exchanger at 150 oF. Cooling water enters the tubes at 60 oF at a rate of 4
zalisa [80]

Answer:

a. 572Btu/s

b.0.1483Btu/s.R

Explanation:

a.Assume a steady state operation, KE and PE are both neglected and fluids properties are constant.

From table A-3E, the specific heat of water is c_p=1.0\ Btu/lbm.F, and the steam properties as, A-4E:

h_{fg}=1007.8Btu/lbm, s_{fg}=1.6529Btu/lbm.R

Using the energy balance for the system:

\dot E_{in}-\dot E_{out}=\bigtriangleup \dot E_{sys}=0\\\\\dot E_{in}=\dot E_{out}\\\\\dot Q_{in}+\dot m_{cw}h_1=\dot m_{cw}h_2\\\\\dot Q_{in}=\dot m_{cw}c_p(T_{out}-T_{in})\\\\\dot Q_{in}=44\times 1.0\times (73-60)=572\ Btu/s

Hence, the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger is 572Btu/s

b. Heat gained by the water is equal to the heat lost by the condensing steam.

-The rate of steam condensation is expressed as:

\dot m_{steam}=\frac{\dot Q}{h_{fg}}\\\\\dot m_{steam}=\frac{572}{1007.8}=0.5676lbm/s

Entropy generation in the heat exchanger could be defined using the entropy balance on the system:

\dot S_{in}-\dot S_{out}+\dot S_{gen}=\bigtriangleup \dot S_{sys}\\\\\dot m_1s_1+\dot m_3s_3-\dot m_2s_2-\dot m_4s_4+\dot S_{gen}=0\\\\\dot m_ws_1+\dot m_ss_3-\dot m_ws_2-\dot m_ss_4+\dot S_{gen}=0\\\\\dot S_{gen}=\dot m_w(s_2-s_1)+\dot m_s(s_4-s_3)\\\\\dot S_{gen}=\dot m c_p \ In(\frac{T_2}{T_1})-\dot m_ss_{fg}\\\\\\\dot S_{gen}=4.4\times 1.0\times \ In( {73+460)/(60+460)}-0.5676\times 1.6529\\\\=0.1483\ Btu/s.R

Hence,the rate of entropy generation in the heat exchanger. is 0.1483Btu/s.R

Which of the following statements does NOT accurately describe the Berlin Airlift?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The Berlin Airlift is best described as the aircraft used to delivered needed food and supplies to the city of Berlin through the air because all other routes were blocked by the Soviet Union.

<h3>What is Berlin Airlift?</h3>

The Berlin airlift was a 1940s military operation that supplied West Berlin with food and other vital goods by air after the Soviet Union blockaded the city.

Thus, the Berlin Airlift is best described as the aircraft used to delivered needed food and supplies to the city of Berlin through the air because all other routes were blocked by the Soviet Union.
