A) The pressure (p)=400kPa=0.400MPa
Mass of mixture =M
quality (X)= 0.60
Volume of mixture (V)=10 m3
From steam table at P=0.400MPa
Specific volume of saturated water (vf)=0.00108355 m3/kg
Specific volume of saturated steam (vg)=0.46238 m3/kg
Therefore, the volume of steam having X=0.6 is given by
V=M[vf+X(vg-vf)]
10= M[0.00108355+0.6(0.46238-0.00108355)]
M=36.04748 kg
If pressure is lowered to 300kPa
p=0.300MPa
From steam table we get,
Specific volume of saturated water (vf)=0.00107317 m3/kg
Specific volume of saturated steam (vg)=0.60576 m3/kg
Therefore, the volume of steam having X=0.6 is given by
V=M[vf+X(vg-vf)]
10= M[0.001007317+0.6(0.60576-0.00107317)]
M= 26.4825 kg

A heat engine that receives heat from a furnace at 1200°C and rejects waste heat to a river at 20°C has a thermal efficiency of
viktelen [127]

Answer:

second-law efficiency  = 62.42 %

Explanation:

given data

temperature T1 = 1200°C = 1473 K

temperature T2 = 20°C  =  293 K

thermal efficiency η = 50 percent

solution

as we know that thermal efficiency of reversible heat engine between same  temp reservoir

so here

efficiency ( reversible ) η1 = 1 - \frac{T2}{T1}      ............1

efficiency ( reversible ) η1  = 1 - \frac{293}{1473}  

so efficiency ( reversible ) η1  = 0.801

so here second-law efficiency of this power plant is

second-law efficiency = \frac{thernal\ efficiency}{0.801}

second-law efficiency = \frac{50}{0.801}  

second-law efficiency  = 62.42 %

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

a.0.0199

b.0.1765

c.0.0785

d.0.1268

e.Yes

Explanation:

It is given that   X follows a  Binomial distribution with (n= 500, p = 0.05)

The  probabilities  are computed using the EXCEL .

a) The required probability here is:

P(X less of equal to  15)

= binom.dist(15,500,0.05,TRUE)

=0.0199

Therefore the probability is 0.0199 .

b) The required probability here is:

P(X greater or equal to 30) = 1 - P(X less or equal to  29)  

=1 - binom.dist(29,500,0.05,TRUE)

=0.1765

Therefore the probability is 0.1765

c) P(X = 26 )

= binom.dist(26,500,0.05,FALSE)  

=0.0785

Therefore the probability is 0.0785

d) The required probability here is computed as:

P(10 less or equal to X less or equal to 20 ) = P(X less or equal to 19) - P(X less or equal to 10)

= binom.dist(19,500,0.05,TRUE) - binom.dist(10,500,0.05,TRUE)

=0.1268

Therefore the probability 0.1268

e) Yes . Therefore the probability because that is the assumption used to apply binomial distribution .

Answer:<em>, Locke believed that human nature gave people the chance to be selfish. This is apparent with the introduction of currency. In a natural state, all people were equal and independent and alone at times, and everyone had a natural right to defend his "life, health, liberty, or possessions.."</em>

What are the benefits of using the engineering design process
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Some of the benefits are tangible for they are visible in the design and production process, while the other benefits are intangible which may not be visible directly but result in improvement in the quality of product, better control over designing and production process, reduction of stress on the designers etc.
