Answer:

Hello there, the question is not complete, but not to worry you can check the explanation section to check how you can solve a similar question or to be be able to solve the exact question directly.

Explanation:

The flow of electrons is what is known or refer to as Current. When energy is used on a nuclei, the electrons are forced to move from one position to the other. The direction of flow of electron is from the negative terminal which then moves to the positive terminal.

Therefore, it can be said that the positive charge determines the direction of electron flow. The starting point is the negative terminal, in which it will now move in the direction in which the positive terminal is.

‏What is the potential energy in joules of a 12 kg ( mass ) at 25 m above a datum plane ?

Virty [35]

Answer:

E = 2940 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass, m = 12 kg

Position at which the object is placed, h = 25 m

We need to find the potential energy of the mass. It is given by the formula as follows :

E = mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

$E=12\times 9.8\times 25\\\\E=2940\ J$

So, the potential energy of the mass is 2940 J.

Determine the following parameters for the water having quality x=0.7 at 200 kPa:

ra1l [238]

Solution :

Given :

Water have quality x = 0.7 (dryness fraction) at around pressure of 200 kPa

The phase diagram is provided below.

a). The phase is a standard mixture.

b). At pressure, p = 200 kPa, T = $T_{saturated}$

Temperature = 120.21°C

c). Specific volume

$v_{f}= 0.001061, \ \ v_g=0.88578 \ m^3/kg$

$v_x=v_f+x(v_g-v_f)$

$=0.001061+0.7(0.88578-0.001061)$

$=0.62036 \ m^3/kg$

d). Specific energy ( $u_x$ )

$u_f=504.5 \ kJ/kg, \ \ u_{fg}=2024.6 \ kJ/kg$

$u_x=504.5 + 0.7(2024.6)$

$=1921.72 \ kJ/kg$

e). Specific enthalpy $(h_x)$

At $h_f = 504.71, \ \ h_{fg} = 2201.6$

$h_x=504.71+(0.7\times 2201.6)$

$= 2045.83 \ kJ/kg$

f). Enthalpy at m = 0.5 kg

$H=mh_x$

$= 0.5 \times 2045.83$

= 1022.91 kJ

List one advantage and one disadvantage of the use of the commutator?

Mariulka [41]

Answer and Explanation:

Commutator are used in DC machine commutator is mainly used for the reversing the direction of the current .It is connected to the armature of the DC generator or motor

ADVANTAGE OF COMMUTATOR The main advantage of the commutator in DC motor is to keep keep the direction of the toque always in the same direction by changing the current direction

DISADVANTAGE OF COMMUTATOR : The main disadvantage is due to the friction between the commutator and brushes there is a friction loss.

Air (cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·°C) is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. A

uysha [10]

Answer:

Q=67.95 W

T=119.83°C

Explanation:

Given that

For air

Cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·°C

T= 20°C

V=0.6 m³/s

P= 95 KPa

We know that for air

P V = m' R T

95 x 0.6 = m x 0.287 x 293

m=0.677 kg/s

For gas

Cp = 1.10 kJ/kg·°C

m'=0.95 kg/s

Ti=160°C ,To= 95°C

Heat loose by gas = Heat gain by air

[m Cp ΔT] for air =[m Cp ΔT] for gas

by putting the values

0.677 x 1.005 ( T - 20)= 0.95 x 1.1 x ( 160 -95 )

T=119.83°C

T is the exit temperature of the air.

Heat transfer

Q=[m Cp ΔT] for gas

Q=0.95 x 1.1 x ( 160 -95 )

Q=67.95 W

(a) The lower yield point for an iron that has an average grain diameter of 1 x 10-2 mm is 230 MPa. At a grain diameter of 6 x 1

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The answer is " $4.35 \times 10^{-3}\ mm$ and 157.5 MPa".

Explanation:

In point A:

The strength of its products with both the grain dimension is linked to this problem. This formula also for grain diameter of 310 MPA is represented as its low yield point

$y = yo + \frac{k}{\sqrt{x}}$

Here y is MPa is low yield point, x is mm grain size, and k becomes proportionality constant.

Replacing the equation for each condition:

$y = y_o + \frac{k}{\sqrt{(1 \times 10^{-2})}}\\\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ 230 = yo + 10k\\\\ y = yo + \frac{k}{\sqrt{(6\times 10^{-3})}}\\\\275 = yo + 12.90k$

People can get yo = 275 MPa with both equations and k= 15.5 Mpa $mm^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

To substitute the answer,

$310 = 275 + \frac{(15.5)}{\sqrt{x}}\\\\x = 0.00435 \ mm = 4.35 \times 10^{-3}\ mm$

In point b:

The equation is $\sigma y = \sigma 0 + k y d^{\frac{1}{2}}$

equation is:

$75 = \sigma o+4 ky \\\\175 = \sigma o+12 ky\\\\ky = 12.5 MPa (mm)^{\frac{1}{2}} \\\\ \sigma 0 = 25 MPa\\\\d= 8.9 \times 10^{-3}\\\\d^{- \frac{1}{2}} =10.6 mm^{-\frac{1}{2}}\\$

by putting the above value in the formula we get the $\sigma y$ value that is= 157.5 MPa
