Nitrogen gas is compressed at steady state from a pressure of 14.2 psi and a temperature 60o F to a pressure of 120 psi and a te

mperature of 500o F. The gas enters a compressor with a volumetric flow rate of 1200 ft3 /min. The magnitude of the heat transfer rate from the compressor to its surroundings is 5% of the compressor power input. Using the ideal gas model (with variable specific heats) and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine (a) The compressor power input (in horsepower). (b) The volumetric flow rate at the exit (in ft3 /min).

Answer:

a) 229.4281 hp.

b) 262.15 ft3/min.

Explanation:

Given data:

P1 = 14.2 psi

T1 = 60°F = 520° R

P2 = 120 psi

T2 = 500°F = 960° R

volumetric flow rate ( Av1 ) = 1200 ft^3 /min = 20 ft^3 / sec

attached below is the detailed solution

What does the plasma membrane do
aniked [119]

<u>Answer:</u>

The plasma membrane encloses specific structures.

<u>Explanation: </u>

plasma membrane is also called as cell membrane. Plasma membrane only  allows the particle to get in and pass out of the cell by osmosis and diffusion method from the outside environment. It is responsible for the molecular traffic inside the cell.

It helps in maintaining the shape of the cell. It has many proteins in it. Therefore cell membrane are responsible for having specific structures.

State the two Carnot corollaries (principles)
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer  and Explanation:

The two principles or corollaries of Carnot Theorem are listed below:

1). The efficiencies of all the reversible heat engines between any two thermal reservoirs working between the same temperatures will be equal to each other.

2). For every Carnot engine working between any two thermal reservoirs will have the same efficiency independent of the operating conditions and the nature of working substance. It only depends on the temperature of the thermal energy reservoirs.
