Answer:

the rate of entropy change of the air is -0.1342 kW/K

the assumptions made in solving this problem

- Air is an ideal gas.

- the process is isothermal ( internally reversible process ). the change in internal energy is 0.

- It is a steady flow process

- Potential and Kinetic energy changes are negligible.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

From the first law of thermodynamics;

dQ = dU + dW ------ let this be equation 1

where dQ is the heat transfer, dU is internal energy and dW is the work done.

from the question, the process is isothermal ( internally reversible process )

Thus, the change in internal energy is 0

dU = 0

given that; Air is compressed by a 40-kW compressor from P1 to P2

since it is compressed, dW = -40 kW

we substitute into equation 1

dQ = 0 + ( -40 kW )

dQ = -40 kW

Now, change in entropy of air is;

ΔS_{air = dQ / T

given that T = 25 °C = ( 25 + 273.15 ) K = 298.15 K

so we substitute

ΔS_{air =  -40 kW / 298.15 K

ΔS_{air =  -0.13416 ≈ -0.1342 kW/K

Therefore, the rate of entropy change of the air is -0.1342 kW/K

the assumptions made in solving this problem

- Air is an ideal gas.

- the process is isothermal ( internally reversible process ). the change in internal energy is 0.

- It is a steady flow process

- Potential and Kinetic energy changes are negligible.

Specify whether the statements are true or false.
NISA [10]

Answer:

1. False

2. True

3. True

4. True

5. False

Explanation:

Moment of a force is not a free vector. There are certain quantities along the line with which force is applied.

Force can be moved in any direction along the line of the action without changing the external reaction.

The magnitude of equivalent resultant force is distributed along the centroid point.

The resultant force of a couple force system is zero as it form opposite forces which balances off each other.

"At 195 miles long, and with 7,325 miles of coastline, the Chesapeake Bay is the largest and most complex estuary in the United
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

see explaination

Explanation:

Part a) Width of bay at Potomac River:

Given Data:

· Actual Width at Potomac River = 30 miles

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

In fluid mechanics models of real structures are prepared in simulation so that they can be analyzed accurately. A model is known to have simulation if model carries same geometric, kinematic and dynamic properties at a small scale.

Length of any part in model = Actual length x Lr

Hence,

Model Width of bay at Potomac River = 30 x 1/1000 = 0.03 miles

Since 1 mile = 5280 ft

Model Width of bay at Potomac River = 0.03 x 5280 = 158.4 ft

Part b) Model Length of bay bridge in model:

Given Data:

· Actual Length of bay bridge = 4.3 miles

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model Length = Actual Length x Lr = 4.3 x 1/1000 = 0.0043 miles

Since 1 mile = 5280 ft

Model Length in feet = 0.0043 x 5280 = 22.704 ft

Part c) Model Length of bay bridge in model:

Given Data:

· Model Area = 8 acre

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model Area = Actual Area x Lr x Lr

8 Model Area :: Actual Area =- (Lp)2 2 = 8,000,000 acre 1000

Since 1 square mile = 640 acre,

Actual Area in square miles = 8,000,000/640 = 12,500 square miles

Part d) Average and maximum depth of model:

Given Data:

· Actual Average depth = 28 ft

· Actual Maximum depth = 174 ft

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model average depth = Actual average depth x Lr = 28 x 1/1000 = 0.028 feet

Since 1 ft = 12 inch

Model average depth in inch = 0.028 x 12 = 0.336 in

Model maximum depth = Actual maximum depth x Lr = 174 x 1/1000 = 0.174 feet

Since 1 ft = 12 inch

Model maximum depth in inch = 0.174 x 12 = 2.088 in

How will the delay and active power per device change as you increase the doping density of both the N- and the P-MOSFET?
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing part of the  question

Consider an inverter operating a power supply voltage VDD. Assume that matched condition for this inverter. Make the necessary assumptions to get to an answer for the following questions.

answer : Nd ∝ rt

Explanation:

Determine how the delay and active power per device will change as the doping density of N- and P-MOSFET increases

Pactive ( active power ) = Efs * F

Pactive = \frac{q^2Nd^2*Xn^2}{6Eo} * f

also note that ; Pactive ∝ Nd2 (

tD = K . \frac{Vdd}{(Vdd - Vt )^2}  since K = constant

Hence : Nd ∝ rt
