A freezer is maintained at 20°F by removing heat from it at a rate of 75 Btu/min. The power input to the freezer is 0.70 hp, and

the surrounding air is at 75°F. Determine (a) the reversible power, (b) the irreversibility, and (c) the second-law efficiency of this freezer.

Answer:

Explanation:

Cop of reversible refrigerator = TL / ( TH - TL)

TL = low temperature of freezer = 20 °F

TH = temperature of air around = 75 °F

Heat removal rate QL = 75 Btu/min

W actual, power input = 0.7 hp

conversion on F to kelvin = (T (°F) + 460 ) × 5 / 9

COP ( coefficient of performance) reversible = (20 + 460) × 5/9 / (5/9 ( ( 75 +460) - (20 + 460) ))

COP reversible = 480 / 55 = 8.73

irreversibility expression, I = W actual - W rev

COP r = QL / Wrev

W rev = QL /  COP r  where 75 Btu/min = 1.76856651 hp  where W actual = 0.70 hp

a) W rev =  1.76856651 hp  /  8.73  = 0.20258 hp is reversible power

I = W actual - W rev

b) I = 0.7 hp - 0.20258 hp = 0.4974 hp

c) the second-law efficiency of this freezer = W rev / W actual =  0.20258 hp / 0.7 hp = 0.2894 × 100 = 28.94 %

A single-cylinder pump feeds a boiler through a delivery
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Net discharge per hour will be 3.5325 m^3/hr

Explanation:

We have given internal diameter d = 25 mm

Time = 1 hour = 3600 sec

So radius r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{25}{2}=12.5mm=12.5\times 10^{-3}m

We know that area is given by

A=\pi r^2=3.14\times (12.5\times 10^{-3})^2=490.625\times 10^{-6}m^2

We know that discharge is given by Q=AV, here A is area and V is velocity

So Q=AV=490.625\times 10^{-6}\times 2=981.25\times 10^{-6}m^3/sec

So net discharge in 1 hour = 981.25\times 10^{-6}m^3/sec\times 3600=3.5325m^3/hour

Use phasor techniques to determine the impedance seen by the source given that R = 4 Ω, C = 12 μF, L = 6 mH and ω = 2000 rad/sec
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Z = 29.938Ω ∠22.04°

I = 2.494A

Explanation:

Impedance Z is defined as the total opposition to the flow of current in an AC circuit. In an R-L-C AC circuit, Impedance is expressed as shown:

Z² = R²+(Xl-Xc)²

Z = √R²+(Xl-Xc)²

R is the resistance = 4Ω

Xl is the inductive reactance = ωL

Xc is the capacitive reactance =

1/ωc

Given C = 12 μF, L = 6 mH and ω = 2000 rad/sec

Xl = 2000×6×10^-3

Xl = 12Ω

Xc = 1/2000×12×10^-6

Xc = 1/24000×10^-6

Xc = 1/0.024

Xc = 41.67Ω

Z = √4²+(12-41.67)²

Z = √16+880.31

Z = √896.31

Z = 29.938Ω (to 3dp)

θ = tan^-1(Xl-Xc)/R

θ = tan^-1(12-41.67)/12

θ = tan^-1(-29.67)/12

θ = tan^-1 -2.47

θ = -67.96°

θ = 90-67.96

θ = 22.04° (to 2dp)

To determine the current, we will use the relationship

V = IZ

I =V/Z

Given V = 12V

I = 29.93/12

I = 2.494A (3dp)

What affect results when there is an impact between earth and is astroids check all that apply.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Massive destruction

Explanation:

If the asteroid collides with the ground, a massive volume of dust will be blasted into the environment. If it collides with water, the amount of water vapour in the atmosphere will rise. This would result in more rain, which would cause earthquakes and mudslides.

As the asteroid collided with the Earth, massive volumes of dust were ejected into to the atmosphere. The sun's light were stopped from entering the Earth's surface, which is terrible news for plants.
