Answer:

The surface temperature increases when two bodies are rubbed against each other due to friction.

Explanation:

No object has a perfectly even surface. So, when two bodies with uneven surfaces are rubbed against each other, they experience friction.

Friction is a resistance experienced by the two bodies when they are moved against each other.

The friction between the two surfaces, converts the kinetic energy of the movement to the thermal energy.

Thus, resulting in rise in the surface temperature of the two bodies.

Therefore, when two bodies are rubbed against each other, the surface temperature increases due to friction.

Air enters a turbine with a stagnation pressure of 900 kPa and a stagnation temperature of 658K, and it is expanded to a stagnat
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

12.332 KW

The positive sign indicates work done by the system ( Turbine )

Explanation:

Stagnation pressure( P1 ) = 900 kPa

Stagnation temperature ( T1 ) = 658K

Expanded stagnation pressure ( P2 ) = 100 kPa

Expansion process is  Isentropic, also assume steady state condition

mass flow rate ( m ) = 0.04 kg/s

<u>Calculate the Turbine power </u>

Assuming a steady state condition

( p1 / p2 )^(r-1/r)  = ( T1 / T2 )

= (900 / 100)^(1.4-1/1.4) = ( 658 / T2 )

=  ( 9 )^0.285 = 658 / T2

∴ T2 = 351.22 K

Finally Turbine Power / power developed can be calculated as

Wt = mCp ( T1 - T2 )

    = 0.04 * 1.005 ( 658 - 351.22 )

    = 12.332 KW

The positive sign indicates work done by the system ( Turbine )

According to the amortization table, Demarco and Tanya will pay a total of in interest over the life of their loan.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

(Interest rate/number of payments)*$170000= interest for the first month.

Interest amounts for all the months of repayment plus $170000=Total loan cost

Explanation:

Interest is the amount you pay for taking a loan from a bank on top of the original amount borrowed.

Factors affecting how much interest is paid are; the principal amount, the loan terms, repayment schedule, the repayment amount and the rate of interest.

The interest paid=(rate of interest/number of payments to make)*principal amount borrowed.

You divide the interest with number of payments done in a year where monthly are divided by 12.Multiplying it by loan balance in the first month which is your principal amount gives the interest rate to pay for that month.

You new loan balance will be= Principal -(repayment-interest)

Do this for the period the loan should take.

Add all the interest amount to original borrowed amount to get total cost of the loan after the period of time.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Tech A

Explanation:

The amount of energy required to apply the same force with a 1:1 ratio is divided into 4, so you can apply 4 times as much force than a 1:1 ratio. efficiency and speed come into play here, but assuming the machine powering the gear can run at a unlimited RPM, 4:1 will have more force and a slower output speed than a 2:1 ratio.

An 1800-W toaster, a 1400-W electric frying pan, and a 75-W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15-A, 120-V circuit. The
Mila [183]

Answer:

a) Current drawn by the toaster = 15A

Current drawn by the electric frying pan = 11.67A

Current drawn by the lamp = 0.625A

b) This combination will blow the 15A fuse as the total current requirement for this setup exceeds the 15A rating of the fuse.

Explanation:

a) For parallel connection, there exists, the same voltage and different currents across all the devices.

Voltage cross each of the 3 devices = outlet voltage of 120V

From their respective power rating, current drawn by each device will be calculated.

P = IV

For the toaster, P = 1800 W, V = 120V

I = 1800/120 = 15A

For the electric frying pan, P = 1400 W, V = 120 V

I = 1400/120 = 11.67 A

For the lamp, P = 75 W, V = 120V

I = 75/120 = 0.625 A

b) Total current in a parallel connection setup = Sum total of all the currents.

Total current drawn by all 3 devices = 15 + 11.67 + 0.625 = 27.295A = 27.3 A

This total current requirement surpasses the 15A current rating of the fuse, therefore, this combination will blow the fuse.

Hope this Helps!!!
