What will be the ME of a machine that produces a 240 N work with a 300

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Efficiency = 80%

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Work output = 240 N

Work Input = 300 N

To find the mechanical efficiency of a machine;

$Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; work}{In-put \; work} * 100$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Efficiency = \frac {240}{300} * 100$

$Efficiency = 0.8 * 100$

Efficiency = 80%

Therefore, the mechanical efficiency of the machine is 80 percent.

efrigerant-134a is expanded isentropically from 600 kPa and 70°C at the inlet of a steady-flow turbine to 100 kPa at the outlet.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Inlet : $v_i=0.0646\frac{m}{s}$

Outlet: $v_o=0.171\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

1) Notation and important concepts

Flow of mass represent "the mass of a substance which passes per unit of time".

Flow rate represent "a measure of the volume of liquid that moves in a certain amount of time"

Specific volume is "the ratio of the substance's volume to its mass. It is the reciprocal of density."

Isentropic process is a "thermodynamic process, in which the entropy of the fluid or gas remains constant".

We know that the flow of mass is given by the following expression

$\dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}$ , where $\dot{V}$ represent the flow rate and $\upsilon$ the specific volume at the pressure and temperature given.

$A_i=0.5m^2$ is the inlet area

$P_i=600Kpa$ pressure at the inlet area

$T_i=70C$ temperature at the inlet area

$A_o=1m^2$ is the outlet area

$P_o=100Kpa$ pressure at the outlet area

$T_o=C$ temperature at the outlet area

$\dot{m}=0.75\frac{kg}{s}$ represent the flow of mass

If we look at the first figure attached Table A-13 we see that the specific volume for the inlet condition is

$\upsilon_i =0.04304\frac{kg}{m^3}$ and the entropy is $h_i=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}=h_o$

With the value of entropy and the outlet pressure of 100 Kpa we can find we specific volume at the outlet condition since w ehave the entropy $h_o=1.0645\frac{KJ}{KgK}$

Since on the table we don't have the exact value we need to interpolate between these two values (see the second figure attached)

$h_1=1.0531\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_1=0.22473\frac{kg}{m^3}$

$h_2=1.0829\frac{KJ}{KgK} , \upsilon_2=0.23349\frac{kg}{m^3}$

Our interest value would be given using interpolation like this:

$\upsilon=0.22473+\frac{(0.23349-0.22473)}{(1.0829-1.0531)}(1.0645-1.0531)=0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}$

2) Solution to the problem

Now since we have all the info required to solve the problem we can find the velocities on this way.

We know from the definition of flow of mass that $\dot{m}=\frac{\dot{V}}{\upsilon}$ , but since $\dot{V}=Av$ we have this:

$\dot{m}=\frac{Av}{\upsilon}$

If we solve from the velocity v we have this:

$v=\frac{\upsilon \dot{m}}{A}$ (*)

And now we just need to replace the values into equation (*)

For the inlet case:

$v_i=\frac{\upsilon_i \dot{m}}{A_i}=\frac{0.043069\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{0.5m^2}=0.0646\frac{m}{s}$

For the oulet case:

$v_o=\frac{\upsilon_o \dot{m}}{A_o}=\frac{0.228\frac{kg}{m^3}(0.75\frac{kg}{s})}{1m^2}=0.171\frac{m}{s}$

At which of the following temperature and pressure levels would a gas be most likely to follow the ideal gas law? A. 0 K and 100

bulgar [2K]

The Ideal Gas Law makes a few assumptions from the Kinetic-Molecular Theory. These assumptions make our work much easier but aren't true under all conditions. The assumptions are,

1) Particles of a gas have virtually no volume and are like single points.
2) Particles exhibit no attractions or repulsions between them.
3) Particles are in continuous, random motion.
4) Collisions between particles are elastic, meaning basically that when they collide, they don't lose any energy.
5) The average kinetic energy is the same for all gasses at a given temperature, regardless of the identity of the gas.

It's generally true that gasses are mostly empty space and their particles occupy very little volume. Gasses are usually far enough apart that they exhibit very little attractive or repulsive forces. When energetic, the gas particles are also in fairly continuous motion, and without other forces, the motion is basically random. Collisions absorb very little energy, and the average KE is pretty close.

Most of these assumptions are dependent on having gas particles very spread apart. When is that true? Think about the other gas laws to remember what properties are related to volume.

A gas with a low pressure and a high temperature will be spread out and therefore exhibit ideal properties.

So, in analyzing the four choices given, we look for low P and high T.

A is at absolute zero, which is pretty much impossible, and definitely does not describe a gas. We rule this out immediately.

B and D are at the same temperature (273 K, or 0 °C), but C is at 100 K, or -173 K. This is very cold, so we rule that out.

We move on to comparing the pressures of B and D. Remember, a low pressure means the particles are more spread out. B has P = 1 Pa, but D has 100 kPa. We need the same units to confirm. Based on our metric prefixes, we know that kPa is kilopascals, and is thus 1000 pascals. So, the pressure of D is five orders of magnitude greater! Thus, the answer is B.
