Answer:

There are two different types of crust: thin oceanic crust that underlies the ocean basins, and thicker continental crust that underlies the continents. These two different types of crust are made up of different types of rock.

gladu [14]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A rocket engine has a chamber pressure 4 MPa and a chamber temperature of 2000 K. Assuming isentropic expansion through the nozzle, and an exit Mach number of 3.2, what are the stagnation pressure and temperature in the exit plane of the nozzle? Assume the specific heat ratio is 1.2.

Answer:

- stagnation pressure is 274.993 Mpa

- the stagnation temperature Tt is 4048 K

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

To determine the stagnation pressure and temperature in the exit plane of the nozzle;

we us the expression;

Pt/P = (1 + (γ-1 / 2) M²)^(γ/γ -1) = ( Tt/T )^(γ/γ -1)

where Pt is stagnant pressure = ?

P is static pressure = 4 MPa = 4 × 10⁶ Pa

Tt is stagnation temperature = ?

T is the static temperature = 2000 K

γ is ratio of specific heats = 1.2

M is Mach number M = 3.2

we substitute

Pt/P = (1 + (γ-1 / 2) M²)^(γ/γ -1)

Pt = P(1 + (γ-1 / 2) M²)^(γ/γ -1)

Pt = 4 × 10⁶(1 + (1.2-1 / 2) 3.2²)^(1.2/1.2 -1)

Pt = 4 × 10⁶ × 68.7484

Pt = 274.993 × 10⁶ Pa

Pt = 274.993 Mpa

Therefore stagnation pressure is 274.993 Mpa

Now, to get our stagnation Temperature

Pt/P = ( Tt/T )^(γ/γ -1)

we substitute

274.993 × 10⁶ Pa / 4 × 10⁶ Pa = ( Tt / 2000 )^(1.2/1.2 -1)

68.7484 = Tt⁶ / 6.4 × 10¹⁹

Tt⁶ = 68.7484 × 6.4 × 10¹⁹

Tt⁶ = 4.3998976 × 10²¹

Tt = ⁶√(4.3998976 × 10²¹)

Tt = 4047.999 ≈ 4048 K

Therefore, the stagnation temperature Tt is 4048 K

A sphere has surface area 1.25 m2, emissivity 1.0, and temperature 100.0°C. What is the rate at which it radiates heat into empt

Yuri [45]

The total power emitted by an object via radiation is:
$P=A\epsilon \sigma T^4$
where:
A is the surface of the object (in our problem, $A=1.25 m^2$
$\epsilon$ is the emissivity of the object (in our problem, $\epsilon=1$ )
$\sigma = 5.67 \cdot 10^{-8} W/(m^2 K^4)$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant
T is the absolute temperature of the object, which in our case is $T=100^{\circ} C=373 K$

Substituting these values, we find the power emitted by radiation:
$P=(1.25 m^2)(1.0)(5.67 \cdot 10^{-8}W/(m^2K^4)})(373 K)^4=1371 W = 1.4 kW$
So, the correct answer is D.

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Kinetic \ energy \ (KE) = 85 \ J}$

Given:

Mass (m) = 6.8 kg

Speed (v) = 5.0 m/s

To Find:

Kinetic energy (KE)

Explanation:

Formula:

$\boxed{ \bold{\sf KE = \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}$

Substituting values of m & v in the equation:

$\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{2} \times 6.8 \times {5}^{2}$

$\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}} \times \cancel{2} \times 3.4 \times 25$

$\sf \implies KE =3.4 \times 25$

$\sf \implies KE = 85 \: J$

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas

jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks
