The frictional force is directly proportional to the force that is perpendicular on the surface.
When the body is placed on a horizontal level with zero inclination, the only force acting on the body is the gravitational force which always pulls the body down. The gravitational force, in this case, is the perpendicular force to the surface. Accordingly, this entire force is used to generate friction
Now as the inclination of the surface increases, the gravitational force is no longer the perpendicular force of the body, its value decreases, which means only a part is used to generate frictional force. Consequently, frictional force decreases.
When the inclination reaches 90 degrees, the gravitational force does not act along the normal and accordingly, no friction force is generated.
Answer:
T_ww = 43,23°C
Explanation:
To solve this question, we use energy balance and we state that the energy that enters the systems equals the energy that leaves the system plus losses. Mathematically, we will have that:
E_in=E_out+E_loss
The energy associated to a current of fluid can be defined as:
E=m*C_p*T_f
So, applying the energy balance to the system described:
m_CW*C_p*T_CW+m_HW*C_p*T_HW=m_WW*C_p*T_WW+E_loss
Replacing the values given on the statement, we have:
1.0 kg/s*4,18 kJ/(kg°C)*25°C+0.8 kg/s*4,18 kJ/(kg°C)*75°C=1.8 kg/s*4,18 kJ/(kg°C)*T_WW+30 kJ/s
Solving for the temperature Tww, we have:
(1.0 kg/s*4,18 kJ/(kg°C)*25°C+0.8 kg/s*4,18 kJ/(kg°C)*75°C-30 kJ/s)/(1.8 kg/s*4,18 kJ/(kg°C))=T_WW
T_WW=43,23 °C
Have a nice day! :D
