In an electric vehicle, each wheel is powered by its own motor. The vehicle weight is 4,000 lbs. By regenerative braking, its sp

eed is decreased linearly from 60 mph to 30 mph in 10 seconds. Calculate the theoretical maximum energy in kWh that can be recovered during this interval. Ignore all losses.

Answer:

the theoretical maximum energy in kWh that can be recovered during this interval is 0.136 kWh

Explanation:

Given that;

weight of vehicle = 4000 lbs

we know that 1 kg = 2.20462

so

m = 4000 / 2.20462 = 1814.37 kg

Initial velocity $V_{i}$ = 60 mph = 26.8224 m/s

Final velocity $V_{f}$ = 30 mph = 13.4112 m/s

now we determine change in kinetic energy

Δk = $\frac{1}{2}$ m( $V_{i}$ ² - $V_{f}$ ² )

we substitute

Δk = $\frac{1}{2}$ ×1814.37( (26.8224)² - (13.4112)² )

Δk = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 1814.37 × 539.5808

Δk = 489500 Joules

we know that; 1 kilowatt hour = 3.6 × 10⁶ Joule

so

Δk = 489500 / 3.6 × 10⁶

Δk = 0.13597 ≈ 0.136 kWh

Therefore, the theoretical maximum energy in kWh that can be recovered during this interval is 0.136 kWh

Some element can be either solid or liquid. At the melting point, the liquid has 8 × 10-22 J more enthalpy per atom than the sol

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

481.76 J/mol

133.33 K

Explanation:

$N_A$ = Avogadro's number = $6.022\times 10^{23}$

Change in enthalpy is given by

$\Delta H=8\times 10^{-22}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\\\Rightarrow \Delta H=481.76\ J/mol$

Entropy is given by

$\Delta S=6\times 10^{-24}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\\\Rightarrow \Delta S=3.6132\ J/mol K$

Latent heat of fusion is given by

$L_f=\Delta H\\\Rightarrow L_f=481.76\ J/mol$

The latent heat of fusion is 481.76 J/mol

Melting point is given by

$T_m=\dfrac{L_f}{\Delta S}\\\Rightarrow T_m=\dfrac{8\times 10^{-22}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}}{6\times 10^{-24}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}}\\\Rightarrow T_f=133.33\ K$

Melting occurs at 133.33 K

Water with a volume flow rate of 0.001 m3/s, flows inside a horizontal pipe with diameter of 1.2 m. If the pipe length is 10m an

galben [10]

Answer:

$\triangle P=1.95*10^{-4}$

Explanation:

Mass $m=0.001$

Diameter $d=1.2m$

Length $l=10m$

Generally the equation for Volume flow rate is mathematically given by

$Q=AV$

$V=\frac{Q}{\pi/4D^2}$

$V=\frac{0.001}{\pi/4(1.2)^2}$

$V=8.84*10^{-4}$

Generally the equation for Friction factor is mathematically given by

$F=\frac{64}{Re}$

Where Re

Re=Reynolds Number

$Re=\frac{pVD}{\mu}$

$Re=\frac{1000*8.84*10^{-4}*1.2}{1.002*10^{-3}}$

$Re=1040$

Therefore

$F=\frac{64}{Re}$

$F=\frac{64}{1040}$

$F=0.06$

Generally the equation for Friction factor is mathematically given by

$Head loss=\frac{fLv^2}{2dg}$

$H=\frac{0.06*10*(8.9*10^-4)^2}{2*1.2*9.81}$

$H=19.9*10^{-9}$

Where

$H=\frac{\triangle P}{\rho g}$

$\triangle P=\frac{19.9*10^{-9}}{10^3*(9.81)}$

$\triangle P=H*\rho g$

$\triangle P=1.95*10^{-4}$
