How much heat must be removed from 200 pounds of blanched vegetables at 189 degrees F to freeze them to a temperature of 22 degr

Virty [35]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to heat exchange in the vegetable and water.

By definition the exchange of heat is given by

$Q =mc\Delta T$

where,

m = mass

c = specific heat

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

Therefore the total heat exchange is given as

$\Delta Q = Q_w+Q_v$

$\Delta Q = m_wc_w(T_i-T_f)+m_vc_v(T_i-T_f)$

Our values are given as,

Total mass is $M_T$ = 200lb ,however the mass of solid vegetable and water is given as,

$m_v= 0.4*200lb = 80lb$

$m_w=0.6*200lb=120lb$

$T_i = 183\°F\\T_f = 22\°F\\c_w = 1Btu/lbF\\c_v = 0.24Btu/lbF$

Replacing at our equation we have,

$\Delta Q = m_wc_w(T_i-T_f)+m_vc_v(T_i-T_f)$

$\Delta Q = (120)(1)(183-22)+(80)(0.24)(183-22)$

$\Delta Q = 22411.2Btu$

Therefore the heat removed is 22411.2 Btu

A potential difference of 1.20 V will be applied to a 33.0 m length of 18-gauge copper wire (diameter = 0.0400 in.). Calculate (

Nostrana [21]

Answer:A) Current = 1.739A, B)current density, J = 2.147x10^6 A/m2

magnitude of electric field , E = 0.036 N/C

)rate of thermal energy, P =2.086W

Explanation:

Resistance = R = ρL/A

But the cross-section area of the wire. is given as

Diameter / 2 = 0.04/2 =0.02in to m = 0.02 / 39.37= 0.000508

A = πr^2 = π x 0.000508^2 = 8.10 x 10^-7

since resistivity of copper,ρ= 17x10-9 ohm.m

so resistance is R = ρL/A

17x10-9 x 33 / 8.1x10-7

= 0.69 ohm.

A) Current = I = Voltage /Resistance =1.20/0.69 =1.739A

B)current density, J = Current /Area

= 1.739/8.1x10-7

= 2.147x10^6 A/m2

c)magnitude of electric field , E = Current density x resistivity =J ρ

E = 2.147 x 10^6 x 17 x 10^-9

E = 0.036 N/C

D)rate of thermal energy, P = I² R =1.739² X 0.69

=2.086W

Colt1911 [192]

The change in the gravitational potential energy is represented by the equation
u = ΔPE = Δmgh
since the mass of the system will remain constant and the acceleration due to gravity will also remain constant, the equation will become
u = mg Δh
