Answer:

(a) Work done is 1.59642 kJ

(b) Useful power supplied = 0.1298 kW

Explanation:

(a) Work done = mass of crate × acceleration due to gravity × distance = 90.5 kg × 9.8 m/s^2 × 1.8 m = 1596.42 kgm^2/s^2 × 1 J/1 kgm^2/s^2 × 1 kJ/1000 J = 1.59642 kJ

(b) Useful power supplied = work done ÷ time = 1.59642 kJ ÷ 12.3 s = 0.1298 kJ/s × 1 kW/1 kJ/s = 0.1298 kW

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 1.629 kJ

(b) 0.132 kW

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The workdone (W) on a body is the product of the force (F) acting on the body and the displacement (s) caused by the force. This can be written as;

W = F x s             ----------------(i)

Where;

F = m x a     [From Newton's law]          ------------------(ii)

m = mass of the body

a = acceleration of the body

Since the direction of motion is upwards, the acceleration acting on the body is the one due to gravity.

i.e a = g = 10m/s²

From the question, the mass of the crate is 90.5kg.

Substitute these values into equation (ii) to get the force acting on the body as follows;

F = 90.5 x 10

F = 905N

From the question;

The displacement (s) of the crate is 1.80m

Substitute the values of the force F and the displacement s into equation (i) as follows;

W = 905 x 1.8

W = 1629 J

Convert the result to kJ by dividing by 1000 as follows;

W = (1629/1000) kJ

W = 1.629 kJ

Therefore, the work done on the crate is 1.629 kJ

(b) Power (P) is the ratio of work done (W) to the time taken (t) to do the work. i.e;

P = W / t            -----------------(ii)

From the question;

t = 12.3s

Also;

W = 1.629 kJ   [as calculated in a]

Substitute these values into equation(ii) as follows;

P = 1.629 / 12.3

P = 0.132 kW

Therefore the useful power supplied to the crate is 0.132 kW

Air is compressed in a reversible, isothermal, steady- flow process from 15 psia, 100°F to 100 psia. Calculate the work of compr
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

|W|=169.28 KJ/kg

ΔS = -0.544 KJ/Kg.K

Explanation:

Given that

T= 100°F

We know that

1 °F = 255.92 K

100°F = 310 .92 K

P _1= 15 psia

P _1= 100 psia

We know that work for isothermal process  

W=mRT\ln \dfrac{P_1}{P_2}

Lets take mass is 1 kg.

So work per unit mass

W=RT\ln \dfrac{P_1}{P_2}

We know that for air R=0.287KJ/kg.K

W=RT\ln \dfrac{P_1}{P_2}

W=0.287\times 310.92\ln \dfrac{15}{100}

W= - 169.28 KJ/kg

Negative sign indicates compression

|W|=169.28 KJ/kg

We know that change in entropy at constant volume

\Delta S=-R\ln \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}

\Delta S=-0.287\ln \dfrac{100}{15}

ΔS = -0.544 KJ/Kg.K

For automobile engines, identify the best choice of motor oil.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

C. Low viscosity for Maine in the winter and high viscosity for Florida in the summer.

Explanation:

The choice of motor oil or engine oil depends on the type of engine and also on the type of climate on which the engine runs.

In winter climates, we should use oil with low viscosity as at lower temperatures, the it flows more readily if its viscosity is low.

But the summer season needs a relatively thicker oil so as to reduce the thinning effect of the oil out of the engine.

Thus for Maine in the winter season, we need a low viscosity oil and for Florida a high viscosity oil in the summer season.

Therefore, option (c) is correct.

Which of the following explains the purpose of a convertible screwdriver?
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The correct option is;

To be able to switch between different heads quickly and easily

Explanation:

A screwdriver is a tool or device that has a grip handle which surrounds an extension shaft that has a forged tip that fits into the complementary groove  on a screw head such that by turning the handle while the forged head of the screwdriver sits in a screw head, the screw is turned

A convertible screw driver is built with the capability to easily change the tip or other attributes of the screwdriver quickly.

The separation and purification process is used for which of the following purposes?
Svetach [21]

The separation and purification process is used for DEVELOPING VACCINES. The development of vaccines must follow strict guidelines.

A vaccine is a biological preparation used to protect against harmful diseases (e.g., viruses) in a simple and safe manner.

Vaccine purification is a strict process consisting of clarification, concentration and chromatography in order to separate the extract that contains the active principle of the vaccine.

The techniques used for vaccine filtration include membrane filtration, depth filtration and centrifugation.
