Explanation:

Thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the relation between radiation, energy, physical properties of matter.

There are 4 laws of thermodynamics namely as follows :

Zeroth Law, First Law, Second Law and Third Law.

There are 4 branches of thermodynamics:

Classical thermodynamics, Statistical mechanics, Chemical thermodynamics and Equilibrium thermodynamics.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Steam at 4 MPa and 350°C is expanded in an adiabatic turbine to 125kPa. What is the isentropic efficiency (percent) of this turb

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

$\eta_{turbine} = 0.603 = 60.3\%$

Explanation:

First, we will find actual properties at given inlet and outlet states by the use of steam tables:

AT INLET:

At 4MPa and 350°C, from the superheated table:

h₁ = 3093.3 KJ/kg

s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K

AT OUTLET:

At P₂ = 125 KPa and steam is saturated in vapor state:

h₂ = $h_{g\ at\ 125KPa}$ = 2684.9 KJ/kg

Now, for the isentropic enthalpy, we have:

P₂ = 125 KPa and s₂ = s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K

Since s₂ is less than $s_g$ and greater than $s_f$ at 125 KPa. Therefore, the steam is in a saturated mixture state. So:

$x = \frac{s_2-s_f}{s_{fg}} \\\\x = \frac{6.5843\ KJ/kg.K - 1.3741\ KJ/kg.K}{5.91\ KJ/kg.K}\\\\x = 0.88$

Now, we will find $h_{2s}$ (enthalpy at the outlet for the isentropic process):

$h_{2s} = h_{f\ at\ 125KPa}+xh_{fg\ at\ 125KPa}\\\\h_{2s} = 444.36\ KJ/kg + (0.88)(2240.6\ KJ/kg)\\h_{2s} = 2416.088\ KJ/kg$

Now, the isentropic efficiency of the turbine can be given as follows:

$\eta_{turbine} = \frac{h_1-h_2}{h_1-h_{2s}}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{3093.3\ KJ/kg-2684.9\ KJ/kg}{3093.3\ KJ/kg-2416.088\ KJ/kg}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{408.4\ KJ/kg}{677.212\ KJ/kg}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = 0.603 = 60.3\%$

Help now please evaluate using the commutative property: 40 (32) (10) (25)

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

#The commutative property of multiplication tells us that it doesn't matter in what order you multiply numbers. The formula for this property is a * b = b * a:

$40\times32\times10\times 25=320,000\\\\25\times10\times32\times 40=320,000\\\\10\times32\times25\times 40=320,000\\\\32\times25\times40\times 10=320,000$

Hence, the product of the four numbers remains 320,000 irrespective of their order.

Let be a real-valued signal for which when . Amplitude modulation is preformed to produce the signal . A proposed demodulation t

densk [106]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer : attached below

Explanation:

let ; x(t) be a real value signal for x ( jw ) = 0 , |w| > 200 $\pi$

g(t) = x ( t ) sin ( 2000 $\pi t )$

$x_{1} (t) = \frac{1}{2} x(t) sin ( 4000\pi t )$

next we apply Fourier transform

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

Who can use NIST resources?

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Federal agencies

Explanation:

NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) also called between 1901 and 1988 National Bureau of Standards (NBS), it is an agency of the Technology Administration of the United States Department of Commerce. The mission of this institute is to promote innovation and industrial competition in the United States through advances in metrology, standards and technology in ways that improve economic stability and quality of life.

As part of this mission, NIST scientists and engineers continually refine the science of measurement (metrology) by creating precise engineering and manufacturing required for most current technological advances. They are also directly involved in the development and testing of standards made by the private sector and government agencies. The NIST was originally called the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), a name it had from 1901 to 1988. The progress and technological innovation of the United States depends on the abilities of the NIST, especially if we talk about four areas: biotechnology , nanotechnology, information technologies and advanced manufacturing.
