Answer:

Power supply relay coil

Explanation:

The power supply known as ATX used in today's PCs is very complicated kind of power supply. The main objective of ATX form of the power supply is conversion of the input supply from the line into different voltages to be supplied in order to run the desktop computer's mother board.

While the AT supply that was used many years back that supplied about 120 VAC, The ATX power supply in today's world is capable of supplying power supply of about 300 W or more.

Power supply relay coil is a solitary estimation of source voltage planned by configuration to be connected to the input or coil.

A 600-MW steam power plant, which is cooled by a nearby river, has a thermal efficiency of 54 percent. Determine the rate of hea
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW. Heat transfer can be higher if themal efficiency is lower.

Explanation:

The heat transfer rate to the river water is calculated by this expression:

\dot Q_{L} = \dot Q_{H} - \dot W

\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{\eta_{th}}-1 )\cdot \dot W\\\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{0.54}-1)\cdot (600 MW)\\\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW

The actual heat transfer can be higher if the steam power plant reports an thermal efficiency lower than expected.

What is the maximal coefficient of performance of a refrigerator which cools down 10 kg of water (and then ice) to -6C. Upper he
inysia [295]

Given:

Temperature of water, T_{1} = -6^{\circ}C =273 +(-6) =267 K

Temperature surrounding refrigerator, T_{2} = 21^{\circ}C =273 + 21 =294 K

Specific heat given for water, C_{w} = 4.19 KJ/kg/K

Specific heat given for ice, C_{ice} = 2.1 KJ/kg/K

Latent heat of fusion,  L_{fusion} = 335KJ/kg

Solution:

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for refrigerator is given by:

Max COP_{refrigerator} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}

= \frac{267}{294 - 267} = 9.89

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for heat pump is given by:

Max COP_{heat pump} = \frac{T_{1}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}\frac{294}{294 - 267} = 10.89

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

T=151 K, U=-1.848*10^6J

Explanation:

The given process occurs when the pressure is constant. Given gas follows the Ideal Gas Law:

 pV=nRT

For the given scenario, we operate with the amount of the gas- n- calculated in moles. To find n, we use molar mass: M=102 g/mol.  

Using the given mass m, molar mass M, we can get the following equation:  

 pV=mRT/M

To calculate change in the internal energy, we need to know initial and final temperatures. We can calculate both temperatures as:

T=pVM/(Rm); so initial T=302.61K and final T=151.289K

 

Now we can calculate change of U:

U=3/2 mRT/M using T- difference in temperatures

 U=-1.848*10^6 J

Note, that the energy was taken away from the system.
