Answer:

<em>Heat of the reservoir is 461.38 K or 188.1 °C</em>

<em>The heating load is 18.705 kW</em>

Explanation:

COP = 8.7

working temperature T_{h} = 248 °C = 248 + 273.3 = 521.3 K

work power W = 2.15 kW

reservoir temperature T_{c} = ?

heating load Q = ?

We know that

COP = Q/W

Q = COP x W = 8.7 x 2.15 = <em>18.705 kW</em>

Also,

COP = \frac{T_{h} }{T_{h}- T_{c}  } = \frac{521.3}{521.3- T_{c}  }

8.7 = \frac{521.3}{521.3- T_{c}  }

4535.31 - 8.7T_{c}  = 521.3

4535.31 - 521.3 = 8.7T_{c}  

4014.01 = 8.7T_{c}  

T_{c}  = 4014.01/8.7 = <em>461.38 K</em>

or 461.38 -273.3 = <em>188.1 °C</em>

Which of the following statements are incorrect? a) The state of matter for an object that has a definite volume but not a defin
hoa [83]

Answer:

a), b), d), and e) are correct.

Explanation:

c) is incorrect because an object that has a definite shape cannot be in a gaseous state as gaseous objects take the shape of their container.

a) is correct because objects that are liquid have definite volumes but no definite shapes as they take the shape of their containers,

b) is correct as this is the definition of an object which is in a solid state.

d) is correct as this is the definition of an object which is in a gaseous state.

e) is correct as rigidness, the quality of having a definite shape is only exhibited by objects that are in solid state.

In a butcher shop, a horizontal steel bar of mass 4.94 kg and length 1.46 m is supported by two vertical wires attached to its e
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Tension in right wire = 25.9N

Explanation:

I have attached a free body diagram to depict this question.

From the diagram, i have labelled the tensions in the strings T1 and T2.

While i labelled the weight of the bar as Wb and weight of sausage as Ws.

Now, when solving a problem like this we want to first remember that the beam is static; meaning it is not moving. From simple physics, this means that the sum of the forces in the y direction equals zero (i.e. the total downward forces equal the total upward forces)

Thus, from the diagram, the upward forces are T1 and T2 while the downward forces are Ws and Wb.

Thus;

T1 + T2 = Wb + Ws

We know that mass of bar = 4.94kg. Thus, Weight of bar(Wb) = mg = 4.94 x 9.81 = 48.46N

Also, weight of sausage (Ws) = mg = 2.49 x 9.81 = 24.43N

Thus,

T1 + T2 = 48.46N + 24.43

T1 + T2 = 72.89N - - - - - (eq 1)

Now, let's take moments about the left end of the bar.

The maximum weight of the bar will act at the centre, so distance from the Wb to left end = 1.46/2 = 0.73m

So, moments about left end;

T2 x 1.46 = (Wb x 0.73) + (Ws x 0.1)

1.46T2 = (48.46 x 0.73) + (24.43 x 0.1)

1.46T2 = 35.373 + 2.443

1.46T2 = 37.816

T2 = 37.816/1.46 = 25.9N

A 4 kg and 6 kg bowling ball are dropped from the same height at the same time. The two balls strike the ground at the same time
Ray Of Light [21]
The force of gravity on objects is proportional to the mass of each object.

(That's a big part of the reason why, when you eat more and your mass
increases, you weigh more.)

The forces of gravity between the Earth and the 6kg ball are 50% greater
than the forces of gravity between the Earth and the 4kg ball.

(The gravitational forces between the 4kg ball and the 6kg ball, or between
both bowling balls and you, are so small that they may be ignored.)

A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.35 kg to a friend standing in front of him
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

a) u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}       &        m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta

b) v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}

c) p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the book, m_b=1.35\ kg

combined mass of the student and the skateboard, m_c=97\ kg

initial velocity of the book, v_b=4.61\ m.s^{-1}

angle of projection of the book from the horizontal, \theta=28^{\circ}

a)

velocity of the student before throwing the book:

Since the student is initially at rest and no net force acts on the student so it remains in rest according to the Newton's first law of motion.

u_c=0\ m.s^{-1}

where:

u_c= initial velocity of the student

velocity of the student after throwing the book:

Since the student applies a force on the book while throwing it and the student standing on the skate will an elastic collision like situation on throwing the book.

m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta

where:

v_c= final velcotiy of the student after throwing the book

b)

m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b\times \cos\theta

97\times v_c=1.35\times 4.61\cos28

v_c=0.0566\ m.s^{-1}

c)

Since there is no movement of the student in the vertical direction, so the total momentum transfer to the earth will be equal to the momentum of the book in vertical direction.

p_e=m_b.v_b\sin\theta

p_e=1.35\times 4.61\times \sin28^{\circ}

p_e=2.9218\ kg.m.s^{-1}
