yan [13]3 years ago

Answer:

1. Large swathes of land is being devoted to the cultivation of corn and cultivation of nutritious grasses.

2. Vegetation and Rainfall

Explanation:

1. One characteristic land-use feature associated with the dairy farms is the use of large swaths of land to grow corn and nutritious alfalfa grass. Earlier, these lands were devoted to the cultivation of temperate wheat. However, the success of commercial dairy farming in the region has led to the introduction of extensive farming methods where large farms are devoted to corn and alfalfa production. Application of manures, usage of machines is very high and the overall yield of the farms is very high but yield per unit of land is low.

2. Two geographic features not shown on the map that corroborates to the above concentration pattern are-

Vegetation- Temperate grassland (Prairie) of these regions provides large and extensive ground for the cultivation of fodder grass. Prairie supports the cultivation of these grasses.

Rainfall- These areas receive plenty of rainfall from humongous freshwater lakes in their vicinity. This rainfall proves crucial for cultivation for animal feeds.

P9.28 A large vacuum tank, held at 60 kPa absolute, sucks sea- level standard air through a converging nozzle whose throat diame
eimsori [14]

Answer:

a)  m=0.17kg/s

b)  Ma=0.89

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Pressure P=60kPa

Diameter d=3cm

Generally at sea level

T_0=288k\\\\\rho_0=1.225kg/m^3\\\\P_0=101350Pa\\\\r=1.4

Generally the Power series equation for Mach number is mathematically given by

\frac{p_0}{p}=(1+\frac{r-1}{2}Ma^2)^{\frac{r}{r-1}}

\frac{101350}{60*10^3}=(1+\frac{1.4-1}{2}Ma^2)^{\frac{1.4}{1.4-1}}

Ma=0.89

Therefore

Mass flow rate

\frac{\rho_0}{\rho}=(1+\frac{1.4-1}{2}(0.89)^2)^{\frac{1.4}{1.4-1}}

\frac{1.225}{\rho}=(1+\frac{1.4-1}{2}(0.89)^2)^{\frac{1.4}{1.4-1}}

\rho=0.848kg/m^3

Generally the equation for Velocity at throat is mathematically given by

V=Ma(r*T_0\sqrt{T_e})

Where

T_e=\frac{P_e}{R\rho}\\\\T_e=\frac{60*10^6}{288*0.842\rho}

T_e=248

Therefore

V=0.89(1.4*288\sqrt{248})\\\\V=284

Generally the equation for Mass flow rate is mathematically given by

m=\rho*A*V

m=0.84*\frac{\pi}{4}*3*10^{-2}*284

m=0.17kg/s

The ________________ attraction between the Earth and the moon is ______________ on the side of the Earth that happens to be ___
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Gravitational; strongest; facing; closer; near side; toward.

Explanation:

The gravitational attraction between the Earth and the moon is strongest on the side of the Earth that happens to be facing the moon, simply because it is closer. This attraction causes the water on this “near side” of Earth to be pulled toward the moon. These forces of attraction and inertia tends to keep the water in place and consequently, leads to a bulge of water on the near side with respect to the moon.

Also, you should note that what is responsible for the moon being in orbit around the Earth is the gravitational force of attraction between the two planetary bodies (Earth and Moon).

Air enters a compressor steadily at the ambient conditions of 100 kPa and 22°C and leaves at 800 kPa. Heat is lost from the comp
telo118 [61]

Answer:

a) 358.8K

b) 181.1 kJ/kg.K

c) 0.0068 kJ/kg.K

Explanation:

Given:

P1 = 100kPa

P2= 800kPa

T1 = 22°C = 22+273 = 295K

q_out = 120 kJ/kg

∆S_air = 0.40 kJ/kg.k

T2 =??

a) Using the formula for change in entropy of air, we have:

∆S_air = c_p In \frac{T_2}{T_1} - Rln \frac{P_2}{P_1}

Let's take gas constant, Cp= 1.005 kJ/kg.K and R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K

Solving, we have:

[/tex] -0.40= (1.005)ln\frac{T_2}{295} ln\frac{800}{100}[/tex]

-0.40= 1.005(ln T_2 - 5.68697)- 0.5968

Solving for T2 we have:

T_2 = 5.8828

Taking the exponential on the equation (both sides), we have:

[/tex] T_2 = e^5^.^8^8^2^8 = 358.8K[/tex]

b) Work input to compressor:

w_in = c_p(T_2 - T_1)+q_out

w_in = 1.005(358.8 - 295)+120

= 184.1 kJ/kg

c) Entropy genered during this process, we use the expression;

Egen = ∆Eair + ∆Es

Where; Egen = generated entropy

∆Eair = Entropy change of air in compressor

∆Es = Entropy change in surrounding.

We need to first find ∆Es, since it is unknown.

Therefore ∆Es = \frac{q_out}{T_1}

\frac{120kJ/kg.k}{295K}

∆Es = 0.4068kJ/kg.k

Hence, entropy generated, Egen will be calculated as:

= -0.40 kJ/kg.K + 0.40608kJ/kg.K

= 0.0068kJ/kg.k
