Answer:

What is the minimum altitude for orbit?

Technically, objects in low-Earth orbit are at an altitude of between 160 to 2,000 km (99 to 1200 mi) above the Earth's surface. Any object below this altitude will being to suffer from orbital decay and will rapidly descend into the atmosphere, either burning up or crashing on the surface.

Explanation:

orbital-mechanics orbit low-earth-orbit altitude. The altitude of a satellite is the distance between the Earth's surface and the satellite, but the Earth itself is not spherical. At the equator the Earth's radius is 21 km more than at the poles, and in fact the shape of the Earth is not even a perfect oblate spheroid.A Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) satellite has been certified by Guiness World Records as setting a new altitude orbit record. However, while most satellites orbit high above the Earth, the JAXA satellite Tsubame was recognized for achieving the lowest altitude, of only 167.4 kilometers.

A block of ice weighing 20 lb is taken from the freezer where it was stored at -15"F. How many Btu of heat will be required to c

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Heat required =7126.58 Btu.

Explanation:

Given that

Mass m=20 lb

We know that

1 lb =0.45 kg

So 20 lb=9 kg

m=9 kg

Ice at -15° F and we have to covert it at 200° F.

First ice will take sensible heat at up to 32 F then it will take latent heat at constant temperature and temperature will remain 32 F.After that it will convert in water and water will take sensible heat and reach at 200 F.

We know that

Specific heat for ice $C_p=2.03\ KJ/kg.K$

Latent heat for ice H=336 KJ/kg

Specific heat for ice $C_p=4.187\ KJ/kg.K$

We know that sensible heat given as

$Q=mC_p\Delta T$

Heat for -15F to 32 F:

$Q=mC_p\Delta T$

$Q=9\times 2.03(32+15) KJ$

Q=858.69 KJ

Heat for 32 Fto 200 F:

$Q=mC_p\Delta T$

$Q=9\times 4.187(200-32) KJ$

Q=6330.74 KJ

Total heat=858.69 + 336 +6330.74 KJ

Total heat=7525.43 KJ

We know that 1 KJ=0.947 Btu

So 7525.43 KJ=7126.58 Btu

So heat required to covert ice into water is 7126.58 Btu.

Discuss the organizational system that you believe would be the most effective for the safety officer in a medium-sized (100-200

marin [14]

Answer:

A safety manager is a person who designs and maintains the safety elements at workplace. A balance should be required for production and the job in providing work environment. As a safety officer in a medium sized manufacturing facility the following organizational system can be designed and maintained:

Maintaining a workplace as per the guidelines by Occupational safety and health association. The rules and regulation should be such that maintains the manufacturing facilities.

For warning to workers proper labelling, floor mapping, signs, posters should be used.

Procurement and usage of safe tools.

A guideline that describes safety standard and precautionary measures should be available to the workers. They should be aware about all the steps that needs to be taken in crisis.

Ensuring that the workers have enough training safety and health or accident prevention.

Identify and eliminate the hazardous elements from the workplace.

A strict action should be taken against the worker in case of violation of rules and not adhering with guidelines.

.a. What size vessel holds 2 kg water at 80°C such that 70% is vapor? What are the pressure and internal energy? b. A 1.6 m3 ves

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Part a: The volume of vessel is 4.7680 $m^3$ and total internal energy is 3680 kJ.

Part b: The quality of the mixture is 90.3% or 0.903, temperature is 120 °C and total internal energy is 4660 kJ.

Explanation:

Part a:

As per given data

m=2 kg

T=80 °C =80+273=353 K

Dryness=70% vapour =0.7

<em>From the steam tables at 80 °C</em>

Specific volume of saturated vapours=v_g=3.40527 $m^3/kg$

Specific volume of saturated liquid=v_f=0.00102 $m^3/kg$

Now the relation of total specific volume for a specific dryness value is given as

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

Substituting the values give

$v=v_f+x(v_g-v_f)\\v=0.00102+0.7(3.40527-0.00102)\\v_f=2.38399 m^3/kg$

Now the volume of vessel is given as

$v=\frac{V}{m}\\V=v \times m\\V=2.38399 \times 2\\V=4.7680 m^3$

So the volume of vessel is 4.7680 $m^3$ .

Similarly for T=80 and dryness ratio of 0.7 from the table of steam

Pressure=P=47.4 kPa

Specific internal energy is given as u=1840 kJ/kg

So the total internal energy is given as

$u=\frac{U}{m}\\U=u \times m\\U=1840 \times 2\\U=3680 kJ$

The total internal energy is 3680 kJ.

So the volume of vessel is 4.7680 $m^3$ and total internal energy is 3680 kJ.

Part b

Volume of vessel is given as 1.6

mass is given as 2 kg

Pressure is given as 0.2 MPa or 200 kPa

Now the specific volume is given as

$v=\frac{V}{m}\\v=\frac{1.6}{2}\\v=0.8 m^3/kg$

So from steam tables for Pressure=200 kPa and specific volume as 0.8 gives

Temperature=T=120 °C

Quality=x=0.903 ≈ 90.3%

Specific internal energy =u=2330 kJ/kg

The total internal energy is given as

$u=\frac{U}{m}\\U=u \times m\\U=2330 \times 2\\U=4660 kJ$

So the quality of the mixture is 90.3% or 0.903, temperature is 120 °C and total internal energy is 4660 kJ.

A circular hoop sits in a stream of water, oriented perpendicular to the current. If the area of the hoop is doubled, the flux (

natka813 [3]

Answer:

The flux (volume of water per unit time) through the hoop will also double.

Explanation:

The flux = volume of water per unit time = flow rate of water through the hoop.

The Flow rate of water through the hoop is proportional to the area of the hoop, and the velocity of the water through the hoop.

This means that

Flow rate = AV

where A is the area of the hoop

V is the velocity of the water through the hoop

This flow rate = volume of water per unit time = Δv/Δt =Q

From all the above statements, we can say

Q = AV

From the equation, if we double the area, and the velocity of the stream of water through the hoop does not change, then, the volume of water per unit time will also double or we can say increases by a factor of 2
