Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Note: This question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to solve. But I have found the similar question on the internet. So, I will be using the data from that question to solve this question for the sack of concept and understanding.

Data Given:

x = 27 , 44 , 32 , 47, 23 , 40, 34, 52

y = 30, 19,  24,  13 , 29,  19,  21,  14

It is given that,

∑x = 299

∑y = 167

∑x^{2} = 11887

∑y^{2} = 3773

We are asked to verify the above values manually in this question.

So,

1. ∑x = 299

Let's verify it:

∑x = 27 + 44 + 32 + 47 + 23 + 40 + 34 + 52

∑x = 299

Yes, it is equal to the given value. Hence, verified.

2. ∑y = 167

Let's verify it:

∑y = 30 + 19 +  24 + 13 + 29 + 19 +  21 +  14

∑y = 169

No, it is not equal to the given value.

3. ∑x^{2} = 11887

Let's verify it:

For this to find,  first we need to square all the value of x individually and then add them together to verify.

∑x^{2} = 27^{2} + 44^{2} + 32^{2} + 47^{2} + 23^{2} + 40^{2} + 34^{2} + 52^{2}

∑x^{2} = 11,887

Yes, it is equal to the given value. Hence, verified.

4. ∑y^{2} = 3773

Let's verify it:

Again, for this we need to find the squares of all the y values and then add them together to verify it.

∑y^{2} = 30^{2} + 19^{2} +  24^{2} + 13^{2} + 29^{2} + 19^{2} +  21^{2} +  14^{2}

∑y^{2}  = 3,845

No, it is not equal to the given value.

What is the maximal coefficient of performance of a refrigerator which cools down 10 kg of water (and then ice) to -6C. Upper he
inysia [295]

Given:

Temperature of water, T_{1} = -6^{\circ}C =273 +(-6) =267 K

Temperature surrounding refrigerator, T_{2} = 21^{\circ}C =273 + 21 =294 K

Specific heat given for water, C_{w} = 4.19 KJ/kg/K

Specific heat given for ice, C_{ice} = 2.1 KJ/kg/K

Latent heat of fusion,  L_{fusion} = 335KJ/kg

Solution:

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for refrigerator is given by:

Max COP_{refrigerator} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}

= \frac{267}{294 - 267} = 9.89

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for heat pump is given by:

Max COP_{heat pump} = \frac{T_{1}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}\frac{294}{294 - 267} = 10.89

At a certain location, wind is blowing steadily at 5 mph. Suppose that the mass density of air is 0.0796 lbm/ft3 and determine t
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft

The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m

Explanation:

Given;

power generation potential (PGP) = 1000 kW

Wind speed = 5 mph = 2.2352 m/s

Density of air = 0.0796 lbm/ft³ = 1.275 kg/m³

Radius of the wind turbine r = ?

Wind energy per unit mass of air, e = E/m = 0.5 v² = (0.5)(2.2352)²

Wind energy per unit mass of air = 2.517 J/kg

PGP = mass flow rate * energy per unit mass

PGP = ρ*A*V*e

PGP = \rho *\frac{\pi r^2}{2} *V*e  \\\\r^2 = \frac{2*PGP}{\rho*\pi *V*e} , r=\sqrt{ \frac{2*PGP}{\rho*\pi *V*e}} = \sqrt{ \frac{2*10^6}{1.275*\pi *2.235*2.517}}

r = 210.64 m = 691.1 ft

Thus, the radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft

PGP = CVᵃ

For best design of wind turbine Betz limit (c) is taken between (0.35 - 0.45)

Let C = 0.4

PGP = Cvᵃ

take log of both sides

ln(PGP) = a*ln(CV)

a = ln(PGP)/ln(CV)

a = ln(1000)/ln(0.4 *2.2352) = 7.73

The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m

(a) For a given material, would you expect the surface energy to be greater than, the same as, or less than the grain boundary e
aksik [14]

Answer:

(a) Surface energy is greater than grain boundary energy due to the fact that the bonds of the atoms on the surface are lower than those of the atoms at the grain boundary. The energy is also directly proportional to the number of bonds created.

(b) The energy of a high-angle grain boundary is higher than that of a small-angle grain boundary because the high-angle grain boundary has a higher misalignment and smaller number of bonds than a small-angle grain boundary.

Explanation:

(a) Surface energy is greater than grain boundary energy due to the fact that the bonds of the atoms on the surface are lower than those of the atoms at the grain boundary. The energy is also directly proportional to the number of bonds created.

(b) The energy of a high-angle grain boundary is higher than that of a small-angle grain boundary because the high-angle grain boundary has a higher misalignment and smaller number of bonds than a small-angle grain boundary.
