Parallel Resistor Equation
If the two resistances or impedances in parallel are equal and of the same value, then the total or equivalent resistance, RT is equal to half the value of one resistor. That is equal to R/2 and for three equal resistors in parallel, R/3, etc.

Your family has asked you to estimate the operating costs of your clothes dryer for the year. The clothes dryer in your home has
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The costs to run the dryer for one year are $ 9.03.

Explanation:

Given that the clothes dryer in my home has a power rating of 2250 Watts, and to dry one typical load of clothes the dryer will run for approximately 45 minutes, and in Ontario, the cost of electricity is $ 0.11 / kWh, to calculate the costs to run the dryer for one year the following calculation must be performed:

1 watt = 0.001 kilowatt

2250/45 = 50 watts per minute

45 x 365 = 16,425 / 60 = 273.75 hours of consumption

50 x 60 = 300 watt = 0.3 kw / h

0.3 x 273.75 = 82.125

82.125 x 0.11 = 9.03

Therefore, the costs to run the dryer for one year are $ 9.03.

Estimate the theoretical fracture strength of a brittle material if it is known that fracture occurs by the propagation of an el
Allisa [31]

Answer:

theoretical fracture strength  = 16919.98 MPa

Explanation:

given data

Length (L) = 0.28 mm = 0.28 × 10⁻³ m

radius of curvature (r) = 0.002 mm = 0.002 × 10⁻³ m

Stress (s₀) = 1430 MPa = 1430 × 10⁶ Pa

solution

we get here theoretical fracture strength s that is express as

theoretical fracture strength  =   s_{0} \times \sqrt{\frac{L}{r} }   .............................1

put here value and we get

theoretical fracture strength  =    1430 \times 10^6\times \sqrt{\frac{0.28\times 10^{-3}}{0.002\times 10^{-3}} }  

theoretical fracture strength  =  16919.98 \times 10^6  

theoretical fracture strength  = 16919.98 MPa

Applying the Entropy Balance: Closed Systems Five kg of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas undergoes a process in a well-insulated piston–
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a) the amount of energy produced in kJ/K is 0.73145 kJ/K

b) the amount of energy produced in kJ/K is 0.68975 kJ/K

The value for entropy production obtained using constant specific heats is approximately 6% higher than the value obtained when accounting explicitly for the variation in specific heats.

Explanation:

Draw the T-s diagram.

a)

C_p = 0.939 kJ/kg.K , m = 5 kg , T₂ = 520 K , T₁ = 280

R = [8.314 kJ / 44.01 kg.K] , P₂ = 20 bar , P₁ = 2 bar

Δs = m[c_p ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1}) - Rln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})]

Substitute all parameters in the equation

Δs = 5[(0.939) ln(\frac{520}{280}) - (\frac{8.314}{44.01})ln(\frac{20}{2})]

Δs = 5 kg × 0.14629 kJ/kg.K

    = 0.73145 kJ/K

b)

Δs = m[\frac{s^0(T_2) - s^0(T_1)}{M} - Rln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})]

Where T₁ = 280 K , s°(T₁) = 211.376 kJ/kmol.K

           T₂ = 520 K , s°(T₂) = 236.575 kJ/kmol.K

R = [8.314 kJ / 44.01 kg.K] , M = 44.01 kg.K , P₂ = 20 bar , P₁ = 2 bar

Δs = 5[\frac{236.575 - 211.376}{44.01} - (\frac{8.314}{44.01})ln(\frac{20}{2})]

    = 5 kg (0.13795 kJ/kg.K)

    = 0.68975 kJ/K

The value for entropy production obtained using constant specific heats is approximately 6% higher than the value obtained when accounting explicitly for the variation in specific heats.
