A well insulated rigid tank contains 4 kg of argon gas at 450 kPa and 30 C. A valve is opened, allowing the argon to escape unti

l the tank pressure drops to 200 kPa. Assuming that the argon remaining in the tank experiences a reversible adiabatic process, find the final mass of argon in the tank. Since you don't have argon gas tables, assume cp, cv, k as needed at some appropriate temperature(s).

Answer:

Final mass of Argon=  2.46 kg

Explanation:

Initial mass of Argon gas ( M1 ) = 4 kg

P1 = 450 kPa

T1 = 30°C = 303 K

P2 = 200 kPa

k ( specific heat ratio of Argon ) = 1.667

assuming a reversible adiabatic process

<u>Calculate the value of the M2 </u>

Applying ideal gas equation ( PV = mRT )

P₁V / P₂V = m₁ RT₁ / m₂ RT₂

hence : m2 = P₂T₁ / P₁T₂ * m₁

                   = (200 * 303 ) / (450 * 219 ) * 4

                   = 2.46 kg

<em>Note: Calculation for T2 is attached below</em>

An 1,840 W toaster, a 1,420 W electric frying pan, and a 70 W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15 A, 120 V circuit. (T
Viktor [21]

Answer:

A)

Current drawn by toaster = 15.33 A

Current drawn by electric frying pan = 11.83 A

Current drawn by lamp = 0.58 A

B)

The fuse will definitely blow up since the current drawn by three devices (27.74 A) is way higher than 15 A fuse rating.

Explanation:

There are three devices plugged into the same outlet.

Toaster = 1840 W

Electric frying pan = 1420 W

Lamp = 70 W

Since the three devices are connected in parallel therefore, the voltage across them will be same but the current drawn by each will be different.

A) What current is drawn by each device?

The current flowing through the device is given by

I = P/V

Where P is the power and V is the voltage.

Current drawn by toaster:

I = 1840/120

I = 15.33 A

Current drawn by electric frying pan:

I = 1420/120

I = 11.83 A

Current drawn by lamp:

I = 70/120

I = 0.58 A

B) Will this combination blow the 15-A fuse?

The total current drawn by all three devices is

Total current = 15.33 + 11.83 + 0.58

Total current = 27.74 A

Therefore, the fuse will definitely blow up since the current drawn by three devices (27.74 A) is way higher than 15 A fuse rating.

What Advantage does a voltmeter have over a noncontact voltage indicator when testing for voltage
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Obviously you shouldn't rely just on the meter for your safety. You'd disconnect wall fuses or kill main switches before you start, using the meter just gives you some extra protection: with the meter you might notice for example that you've disconnected the wrong fuse and the unit is still live.

Explanation:

Hope it helps! :)

A hair dryer is basically a duct of constant diameter in which a few layers of electric resistors are placed. A small fan pulls
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

the percent increase in the velocity of air is 25.65%

Explanation:

Hello!

The first thing we must consider to solve this problem is the continuity equation that states that the amount of mass flow that enters a system is the same as what should come out.

m1=m2

Now remember that mass flow is given by the product of density, cross-sectional area and velocity

(α1)(V1)(A1)=(α2)(V2)(A2)

where

α=density

V=velocity

A=area

Now we can assume that the input and output areas are equal

(α1)(V1)=(α2)(V2)

\frac{V2}{V1} =\frac{\alpha1 }{\alpha 2}

Now we can use the equation that defines the percentage of increase, in this case for speed

i=(\frac{V2}{V1} -1) 100

Now we use the equation obtained in the previous step, and replace values

i=(\frac{\alpha1 }{\alpha 2} -1) 100\\i=(\frac{1.2}{0.955} -1) 100=25.65

the percent increase in the velocity of air is 25.65%

The lattice constant of a simple cubic lattice is a0.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

A)The sketches for the required planes were drawn in the first attachment.

B)The sketches for the required directions were drawn in the second attachment.

To draw a plane in a simple cubic lattice, you have to follow these instructions:

1- the cube has 3 main directions called "a", "b" and "c" (as shown in the first attachment)

2- The coordinates of that plane are written as: π:(1/a₀ 1/b₀ 1/c₀) (if one of the coordinates is 0, for example (1 1 0), c₀ is ∞, therefore that plane never cross the direction c).

3- Identify the points a₀, b₀, and c₀ at the plane that crosses this main directions and point them in the cubic cell.

4- Join the points.

To draw a direction in a simple cubic lattice, you have to follow these instructions:

1- Identify the points a₀, b₀, and c₀ in the cubic cell.

2- Draw the direction as a vector-like (a₀ b₀ c₀).
