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

A reversible process and an irreversible process both have the same________ between the same two states. a. Internal energy b. W
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

a) Internal energy

Explanation:

As we know that internal energy is a point function so it did not depends on the path ,it depends  at the initial and final states of process.All point function property did not depends on the path.Internal energy is a exact function.

Work and heat is a path function so these depend on the path.They have different values for different path between two states.Work and heat are in exact function.

We know that in ir-reversible process entropy will increase so entropy will be different for reversible and ir-reversible processes.

technician a says an out-of-round drum can cause a pulsating brake pedal. technician b says an out-of-round drum can cause the b
denis-greek [22]

According to the question of the pulsating brake pedal, both A and B are correct.

What causes brake pulsation?

Brake pulsation is mainly caused by warped rotors/brake discs. Excessive hard braking or quick stops, which can significantly overheat the discs, are the primary causes of deformed rotors. When the discs overheat, the composition of the metal disc material changes, resulting in imperfections in the metal's surface. Hotspots are noticeable irregularities. They appear as discoloured areas of the disc material, which are often bluish or blackish in appearance. The brake pedal is the pedal which you press with your foot to slow or stop a vehicle. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the system automatically delivers the appropriate pressure required to prevent colliding with the vehicle in front.

Identify an object in your house that contains a physical system and list three questions you could use to define the system
jonny [76]

Answer:

ALL CAREFULLY ANSWERED CORRECTLY

Explanation:

1) A loaf of Bread PHYSICAL SYSTEM

✓ How can the environment affect the edibility of the bread

✓ What are the constituents that makes up the bread

✓ What process is involved in these constituents mixing to form the loaf.

2) The law of thermodynamics makes us to understand that when heat/energy passes through a system, the systems internal energy changes with respect to the conservation of energy law. That is energy lost = energy gained. Typically, ice would melt in a cup of hot tea because of the thermal energy in the molecules of the hot tea. When you heat a material, you are adding thermal kinetic energy to its molecules and usually raising its temperature. The temperature of the ice raises due to the kinetic energy added to it and it melts to water.

3) The theory of systems view the world as a complex system of interconnected parts. If we consider the society; (financial systems, political systems, etc) we will agree that they individually have their own components and it's the summation of this components that makes the system, this implies that system thinking could be applicable in this kinda of systems as long as they are made up of components.

4) Technology has boosted every sector of our lives and it has the capacity to do more. Restricting it's importance to entertainment alone would be an underusing of its potentials. Engineering students infact should not need any drive to be encouraged about maximizing all it can do in shaping our world.

5) ~ Nature shows its splendid soul

~Never ceases to leave us in amazement

~And we are in love

A single fixed pulley is used to lift a load of 400N by the application of an effort of 480N in 10s through a vertical height of
Allushta [10]

Answer:

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R) = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A) = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E) = 83.3 %

Explanation:

Given;

load lifted by the pulley, L = 400 N

effort applied in lifting the, E = 480 N

distance moved by the effort, d = 5 m

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R);

since the effort applied moved downwards through a distance of d, the load will also move upwards through an equal distance 'd'.

V.R = distance moved by effort / distance moved by the load

V.R = 5/5 = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A);

M.A = L/E

M.A = 400 / 480

M.A = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E);

E = \frac{M.A}{V.R} \times 100\%\\\\E = 0.833 \ \times \ 100\%\\\\ E = 83.3 \ \%
