On July 23, 1983, Air Canada Flight 143 required 22,300 kg of jet fuel to fly from Montreal to Edmonton. The density of jet fuel

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

20, 083 L

Explanation:

The mistake was the result of not using units when converting the 7862 l to Kg. They used the density in pounds hence they multiplied by 1.77 Lb/L and obtained 13597 Lb not Kg as they assumed.

To obtain the amount needed to refuel they subtracted this quantity from the 22,300 Kg required for the trip again obtaining the wrong quantity of 8703 Kg and they converted this to liters by dividing the density to get 4916 L and then placed then 5000 L of fuel

The quantity required was

7862 L * 1.77 Lb/L = 13915.74 Lb (pounds not kilos)

then converting this pounds to Kg by multiplying by 0.454 Kg/L one gets

6173 Kg on board

Amount Required

( 22,300 -6173) : 16127 Kg

16127 Kg/ 0.803 Kg/L = 20083 L

Assume a steel pipe of inner radius r1= 20 mm and outer radius r2= 25 mm, which is exposed to natural convection at h = 50 W/m2.

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

98,614.82 W/m²

Explanation:

$Q = 2\pi hL(\frac{T_2-T_1}{Ln\frac{r_2}{r_1}})$

Where;

Q = the amount of heat loss from the pipe

h = the heat transfer coefficient of the pipe = 50 W/m².K

T₁ = the ambient temperature of the pipe = 30⁰C

T₂ = the outside temperature of the pipe = 100⁰C

L= the length of pipe

r₁ = inner radius of the pipe = 20mm

r₂ = outer radius of the pipe = 25mm

To determine the amount of heat loss from the pipe per unit length

From the equation above

$\frac{Q}{L} = 2\pi h(\frac{T_2-T_1}{Ln\frac{r_2}{r_1}})$

$\frac{Q}{L} = 2\pi* 50(\frac{100-30}{Ln\frac{25}{20}})$

$\frac{Q}{L} = 314.159(\frac{70}{0.223})$

$\frac{Q}{L} = 314.159(313.901)$ = 98,614.82 W/m²

A piston-cylinder device contains an ideal gas mixture of 3 kmol of He gas and 7 kmol of Ar gas (both gases are monatomic) at 27

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Q = 62 ( since we are instructed not to include the units in the answer)

Explanation:

Given that:

$n_{HCl} = 3 \ kmol\\n_{Ar} = 7 \ k mol$

$T_1 = 27^0 \ C = ( 27+273)K = 300 K$

$P_1 = 200 \ kPa$

Q = ???

Now the gas expands at constant pressure until its volume doubles

i.e if $V_1 = x\\V_2 = 2V_1$

Using Charles Law; since pressure is constant

$V \alpha T$

$\frac{V_2}{V_1} =\frac{T_2}{T_1}$

$\frac{2V_1}{V_1} =\frac{T_2}{300}$

$T_2 = 300*2\\T_2 = 600$

mass of He =number of moles of He × molecular weight of He

mass of He = 3 kg × 4

mass of He = 12 kg

mass of Ar =number of moles of Ar × molecular weight of Ar

mass of He = 7 kg × 40

mass of He = 280 kg

Now; the amount of Heat Q transferred = $m_{He}Cp_{He} \delta T + m_{Ar}Cp_{Ar} \delta T$

From gas table

$Cp_{He} = 5.9 \ kJ/Kg/K\\Cp_{Ar} = 0.5203 \ kJ/Kg/K$

∴ Q = $12*5.19*10^3(600-300)+280*0.5203*10^3(600-300)$

Q = $62.389 *10^6$

Q = 62 MJ

Q = 62 ( since we are instructed not to include the units in the answer)
