Aviation refers to flying using an aircraft, like an aeroplane. It also includes the activities and industries related to flight, such as air traffic control. The biggest of the many uses of aviation are in air travel and military aircraft . The main difference between aeronautics and aviation is their focus. Aeronautics involves the study of the science, design, and manufacture of flying vehicles while aviation involves flying or operating an aircraft and various activities surrounding mechanical flight and the aircraft industry

Coal fire burning at 1100 k delivers heat energy to a reservoir at 500 k. Find maximum efficiency.
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

<em>55%</em>

Explanation:

hot reservoir = 1100 K

cold reservoir = 500 K

<em>This is a Carnot system</em>

For a Carnot system, maximum efficicency of the system is given as

Eff = 1 - \frac{Tc}{Th}

where Tc = temperature of cold reservoir = 500K

Th = temperature of hot reservoir = 1100 K

Eff = 1 - \frac{500}{1100}

Eff = 1 - 0.45 = 0.55 or<em> 55%</em>

Define Viscosity. What are the main differences between viscous and inviscid flows?
Evgesh-ka [11]

1. Define <em>Viscosity</em>

In physics, <em>Viscosity</em> refers to the level of resistance of a fluid to flow due to internal friction, in other words, viscosity is the result of the magnitude of internal friction in a fluid, as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow. For example, the honey is a fluid with high viscosity while the water has low viscosity.

What are the main differences between viscous and inviscid flows?

Viscous flows are flows that has a thick, sticky consistency between solid and liquid, contain and conduct heat, does not have a rest frame mass density and whose motion at a fixed point always remains constant. Inviscid flows, on the other hand, are flows characterized for having zero viscosity (it does not have a thick, sticky consistency), for not containing or conducting heat, for the lack of steady flow and for having a rest frame mass density

Furthermore, viscous flows are much more common than inviscid flows, while this latter is often considered an idealized model since helium is the only fluid that can become inviscid.

Tech A says that horsepower is a measurement simply of the amount of work being performed. Tech B says that horsepower can be ca
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Tech B

Explanation:

Horsepower (hp) refers to a unit of measurement of power in respect of the output of engines or motors.

Horsepower is the common unit of power. It indicates the rate at which work is done.

The formula \frac{rpm*T}{5252}, where rpm is the engine speed, T is the torque, and 5,252 is radians per second.

So,

Tech B is correct

The Stefan-Boltzmann law can be employed to estimate the rate of radiation of energy H from a surface, as in
Mazyrski [523]

Explanation:

A.

H = Aeσ^4

Using the stefan Boltzmann law

When we differentiate

dH/dT = 4AeσT³

dH/dT = 4(0.15)(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(650)³

= 8.4085

Exact error = 8.4085x20

= 168.17

H(650) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(650)⁴

= 1366.376watts

B.

Verifying values

H(T+ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10)^-8(670)⁴

= 1542.468

H(T+ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(630)⁴

= 1205.8104

Error = 1542.468-1205.8104/2

= 168.329

ΔT = 40

H(T+ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10)^-8(690)⁴

= 1735.05

H(T-ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(610)⁴

= 1735.05-1059.83/2

= 675.22/2

= 337.61

When moving cylinders always remove and make
Karolina [17]

Unless cylinders are firmly secured on a special carrier intended for this purpose, regulators shall be removed and valve protection caps put in place before cylinders are moved. A suitable cylinder truck, chain, or other steadying device shall be used to keep cylinders from being knocked over while in use.
