Answer:

This can spread their weight.

Explanation:

The ladder has a much larger surface area than the firefighter. Hence, his weight is spread out much more than usual, decreasing the pressure on the ice, preventing the ice from breaking/cracking.

Hope this helped!

A mass of 5 kg of saturated water vapor at 150 kPa is heated at constant pressure until the temperature reaches 200°C. Calculate
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 5 kg

Pressure = 150 kPa

Temperature = 200°C

We need to calculate the specific volume

Using formula of work done

W=Pm\DeltaV

W=Pm(\dfrac{RT_{1}}{P_{atm}}-\dfrac{RT_{2}}{P_{atm}}

W=\dfrac{PmR}{P_{atm}}(T_{2}-T_{1})

Where,R = gas constant

T = temperature

P = pressure

P_{atm}=Atmosphere pressure

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

W=\dfrac{150\times10^{3}\times5\times287.05}{1.01\times10^{5}}\times(473-373)

W=213\ kJ

Hence, The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.
