A 1.5m wire carries a 8A current when a potential difference of 67v is applied what is the resistance of the wire
Drupady [299]

Data is inappropriate

  here, we need gauge of the wire i.e., diameter of the wire, so that we calculate the resistance by using the formula

                              R  = ρl/A            

            where R= resistance ; Ω

                       l = length of wire ; m

                       A = area of wire ; m²

                       ρ = resistivity ; Ω-m

But in general ohms law is

                    V = I R

                    R = V/I ;

but here we also calculate "R" from length of wire in which the current is flowing.

I hope it is helpful to you.

A 50-kg copper block initially at 140°C is dropped into an insulated tank that contains 90 L of water at 10°C. Determine the fin
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

16.33°C

Explanation:

Applying,

Heat lost by copper = heat gained by water

cm(t₁-t₃) = c'm'(t₃-t₂).............. Equation 1

Where c = specific heat capacity of copper, m = mass of copper, c' = specific heat capacity of water, m' = mass of water, t₁ = initial temperature of copper, t₂ = initial temperature of water, t₃ = final equilibrium temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 50 kg, t₁ = 140°C, m' = 90 L = 90 kg, t₂ = 10°C

Constant: c = 385  J/kg°C, c' = 4200J/kg°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

50(385)(140-t₃) = 90(4200)(t₃-10)

(140-t₃) = 378000(t₃-10)/19250

(140-t₃) = 19.64(t₃-10)

140-t₃ = 19.64t₃-196.6

19.64t₃+t₃ = 196.4+140

20.64t₃ = 336,4

t₃ = 336.4/20.6

t₃ = 16.33°C

Steam enters an adiabatic turbine steadily at 7 MPa, 5008C, and 45 m/s, and leaves at 100 kPa and 75 m/s. If the power output of
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

a) \dot m = 6.878\,\frac{kg}{s}, b) T = 104.3^{\textdegree}C, c) \dot S_{gen} = 11.8\,\frac{kW}{K}

Explanation:

a) The turbine is modelled by means of the First Principle of Thermodynamics. Changes in kinetic and potential energy are negligible.

-\dot W_{out} + \dot m \cdot (h_{in}-h_{out}) = 0

The mass flow rate is:

\dot m = \frac{\dot W_{out}}{h_{in}-h_{out}}

According to property water tables, specific enthalpies and entropies are:

State 1 - Superheated steam

P = 7000\,kPa

T = 500^{\textdegree}C

h = 3411.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

s = 6.8000\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot K}

State 2s - Liquid-Vapor Mixture

P = 100\,kPa

h = 2467.32\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

s = 6.8000\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot K}

x = 0.908

The isentropic efficiency is given by the following expression:

\eta_{s} = \frac{h_{1}-h_{2}}{h_{1}-h_{2s}}

The real specific enthalpy at outlet is:

h_{2} = h_{1} - \eta_{s}\cdot (h_{1}-h_{2s})

h_{2} = 3411.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 0.77\cdot (3411.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 2467.32\,\frac{kJ}{kg} )

h_{2} = 2684.46\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

State 2 - Superheated Vapor

P = 100\,kPa

T = 104.3^{\textdegree}C

h = 2684.46\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

s = 7.3829\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot K}

The mass flow rate is:

\dot m = \frac{5000\,kW}{3411.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg} -2684.46\,\frac{kJ}{kg}}

\dot m = 6.878\,\frac{kg}{s}

b) The temperature at the turbine exit is:

T = 104.3^{\textdegree}C

c) The rate of entropy generation is determined by means of the Second Law of Thermodynamics:

\dot m \cdot (s_{in}-s_{out}) + \dot S_{gen} = 0

\dot S_{gen}=\dot m \cdot (s_{out}-s_{in})

\dot S_{gen} = (6.878\,\frac{kg}{s})\cdot (7.3829\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot K} - 6.8000\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot K} )

\dot S_{gen} = 11.8\,\frac{kW}{K}
