Answer:

68.25 kJ

Explanation:

The thermal energy Q required to raise the temperature of 15kg gold from 45⁰ C up to 80⁰ C is Q = mcΔθ where m = mass of gold = 15 kg, c = specific heat capacity of gold = 130 J/kg°C and Δθ = temperature change = θ₂ - θ₁ where θ₁ = 45 °C and θ₂ = 80 °C

So, Q = mcΔθ = mc(θ₂ - θ₁)

= 15 kg × 130 J/kg°C × (80 °C - 45 °C)

= 1950 J/°C × 35 °C

= 68,250 J

= 68.25 kJ

For a body moving with simple harmonic motion state the equations to represent: i) Velocity ii) Acceleration iii) Periodic Time

max2010maxim [7]

Answer with Explanation:

The general equation of simple harmonic motion is

$x(t)=Asin(\omega t+\phi)$

where,

A is the amplitude of motion

$\omega$ is the angular frequency of the motion

$\phi$ is known as initial phase

part 1)

Now by definition of velocity we have

$v=\frac{dx}{dt}\\\\\therefore v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(Asin(\omega t+\phi )\\\\v(t)=A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )$

part 2)

Now by definition of acceleration we have

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}\\\\\therefore a(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )\\\\a(t)=-A\omega ^{2}sin(\omega t+\phi )$

part 3)

The angular frequency is related to Time period 'T' as $T =\frac{2\pi }{\omega }$

where

$\omega$ is the angular frequency of the motion of the particle.

Part 4) The acceleration and velocities are plotted below

since the maximum value that the sin(x) and cos(x) can achieve in their respective domains equals 1 thus the maximum value of acceleration and velocity is $A\omega ^{2}$ and $A\omega$ respectively.

Two streams of air enter a control volume: stream 1 enters at a rate of 0.05 kg / s at 300 kPa and 380 K, while stream 2 enters

alex41 [277]

Answer:

0.08kg/s

Explanation:

For this problem you must use 2 equations, the first is the continuity equation that indicates that all the mass flows that enter is equal to those that leave the system, there you have the first equation.

The second equation is obtained using the first law of thermodynamics that indicates that all the energies that enter a system are the same that come out, you must take into account the heat flows, work and mass flows of each state, as well as their enthalpies found with the temperature.

finally you use the two previous equations to make a system and find the mass flows

When CO2 rises, temperature rises. Why do you think this is?

icang [17]

Answer:

The warming causes the oceans to release CO2. The CO2 amplifies the warming and mixes through the atmosphere, spreading warming throughout the planet. So CO2 causes warming AND rising temperature causes CO2 rise. Overall, about 90% of the global warming occurs after the CO2 increase.

Consider an infinitely thin flat plate of chord c at an angle of attack α in a supersonic flow. The pressure on the upper and lo

amm1812

Answer:

X_cp = c/2

Explanation:

We are given;

Chord = c

Angle of attack = α

p u (s) = c 1

p1(s)=c2,

and c2 > c1

First of all, we need to find the resultant normal force on the plate and the total moment about leading edge.
