Answer:

6.65 kPa.

- 73.3 kPa.

Explanation:

Without much ado let's jump right into the solution to the problem given. It is given that the pressure = 50 mmHg and the solution to this question is to write out the value of the pressure in kpa and kPa gauge.

P(a) = 0.05m × 133 kN/m³ = 6.65 kPa.

The P(gauge) =( [ 0.05 × 13.6 × 9810] ÷ 1000 ) - 80 = - 73.3 kPa.

A heat pump receives heat from a lake that has an average wintertime temperature of 6o C and supplies heat into a house having a

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a) $\dot W = 1.062\,kW$

Explanation:

a) Let consider that heat pump is reversible, so that the Coefficient of Performance is:

$COP_{HP} = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}$

$COP_{HP} = \frac{298.15\,K}{298.15\,K-279.15\,K}$

$COP_{HP} = 15.692$

The minimum heat received by the house must be equal to the heat lost to keep the average temperature constant. Hence:

$\dot Q_{H} = 60000\,\frac{kJ}{h}$

The minimum power supplied to the heat pump is:

$\dot W = \frac{\dot Q_{H}}{COP}$

$\dot W = \frac{\left(60000\,\frac{kJ}{h} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,h}{3600\,s} \right)}{15.692}$

$\dot W = 1.062\,kW$

A Geostationary satellite has an 8kW RF transmission pointed at the earth. How much force does that induce on the spacecraft? (N

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The force induced on the aircraft is 2.60 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Power transmitted, $P_{t} = 8 kW = 8000 W$

Now, the force, F is given by:

$P_{t} = Force(F)\times velocity(v) = Fv$ (1)

where

v = velocity

Now,

For a geo-stationary satellite, the centripetal force, $F_{c}$ is provided by the gravitational force, $F_{G}$ :

$F_{c} = F_{G}$

$\frac{mv^{2}}{R} = \frac{GM_{e}m{R^{2}}$

Thus from the above, velocity comes out to be:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{R}}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{- 11}\times 5.979\times 10^{24}}{42166\times 10^{3}}} = 3075.36 m/ s$

where

R = $R_{e} + H$

R = $\sqrt{GM_{e}(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}}$

where

G = Gravitational constant

T = Time period of rotation of Earth

R is calculated as 42166 km

Now, from eqn (1):

$8000 = F\times 3075.36$

F = 2.60 N

A furnace wall is to be built of 20-cm firebrick and building (structural) brick of same thickness. The thermal conductivities o

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

q=2313.04 $W/m^2$

T=690.86°C

Explanation:

Given that

Thickness t= 20 cm

Thermal conductivity of firebrick= 1.6 W/m.K

Thermal conductivity of structural brick= 0.7 W/m.K

Inner temperature of firebrick=980°C

Outer temperature of structural brick =30°C

We know that thermal resistance

$R=\dfrac{t}{KA}$

These are connect in series

$R=\left(\dfrac{t}{KA}\right)_{fire}+\left(\dfrac{t}{KA}\right)_{struc}$

$R=\dfrac{0.2}{1.6A}+\dfrac{0.2}{0.7A}\ K/W$

$R=\dfrac{23}{56A}\ K/W$

Heat transfer

$Q=\dfrac{\Delta T}{R}$

$Q=56A\times \dfrac{980-30}{23}\ W$

So heat flux

q=2313.04 $W/m^2$

Lets temperature between interface is T

Now by equating heat in both bricks

$\dfrac{980-T}{\dfrac{0.2}{1.6A}}=\dfrac{T-30}{\dfrac{0.2}{0.7A}}$

So T=690.86°C

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The angle of twist can be computed using the material’s shear modulus if and only if the shear stress is still in the elastic region

Explanation:

The shear modulus (G) is the ratio of shear stress to shear strain. Like the modulus of elasticity, the shear modulus is governed by Hooke’s Law: the relationship between shear stress and shear strain is proportional up to the proportional limit of the material. The angle of twist can be computed using the material’s shear modulus if and only if the shear stress is still in the elastic region.
