A food department is kept at -12 °C by a refrigerator in an environment at 30 °C. The total heat gain to the food department is

estimated to be 3,300 kJ/h and the heat rejection in the condenser is 4,800 kJ/h. If the refrigeration cycle was as efficient as the Carnot cycle, how much power (in kW) would be required to remove 3,300 kJ/h heat from the cooled space?

Answer: P = 0.416 kW

Explanation:

taken a step by step process to solving this problem.

we have that from the question;

the amount of heat rejected Qn = 4800 kJ/h

the cooling effect is Ql = 3300 kJ/h

Applying the first law of thermodynamics for this system gives us

Шnet = Qn -Ql

Шnet = 4800 - 3300 = 1500 kJ/h

Next we would calculate the coefficient of performance of the refrigerator;

COPr = Desired Effect / work output = Ql / Шnet  = 3300/1500 = 2.2

COPr = 2.2

The Power as required gives;

P = Qn - Ql  = 4800 - 3300 = 1500 kJ/h = 0.416

P = 0.416 kW

cheers i hope this helps!!!!1

Define and discuss the difference between micronutrients and macronutrients. Also, discuss their importance in the body at rest
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Macronutrients are simply nutrients the body needs in a very high amount e.g Carbohydrate.

MicroNutrients are simply nutrients the body needs but in little amount e.g  Minerals.

Explanation:

So for further breakdown:

What are nutrients? Nutrients are essential elements that nourish the body in different capacities. We as humans get most of out nutrients from the food and water we ingest.

Now about Macro Nutrients: From the prefix "Macro" which means large, we can infer that macro nutrients are elements need by the body for the fundamental processes of the body, deficiency in this nutrients are very easy to spot. Examples are: Carbohydrates, Protein, Fats amd Water.

Micro Nutrients: In relation to macro nutrients this are elements that the body needs but are not needed in Large quantities. They mostly work like supporting nutrients. Most chemical activities like reaction that occur in the body are a function of micro nutrients. Defiencies in micrp nutrients may take some time to spot e.g Minerals and Vitamins

In regards to exercise: Macro nutrients are the essential ones here since they are the ones that generate energy. PS: micro nutrients dont generate energy.

In regards to rest: Both the Macro and Micro Nutrients are essentail for the overall well being of the body.

Steam at 1 MPa, 300 C flows through a 30 cm diameter pipe with an average velocity of 10 m/s. The mass flow rate of this steam i
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

\dot m = 2.74 kg/s

Explanation:

given data:

pressure 1 MPa

diameter of pipe  =  30 cm

average velocity = 10 m/s

area of pipe= \frac[\pi}{4}d^2

                 = \frac{\pi}{4} 0.3^2

A = 0.070 m2

WE KNOW THAT mass flow rate is given as

\dot m = \rho A v

for pressure 1 MPa, the density of steam is = 4.068 kg/m3

therefore we have

\dot m = 4.068 * 0.070* 10

\dot m = 2.74 kg/s

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Outside temperature =88.03°C

Explanation:

Conductivity of air-soil from standard table

   K=0.60 W/m-k

To find temperature we need to balance energy

Heat generation=Heat dissipation

Now find the value

We know that for sphere

q=\dfrac{2\pi DK}{1-\dfrac{D}{4H}}(T_1-T_2)

Given that q=500 W

so

500=\dfrac{2\pi 2\times .6}{1-\dfrac{2}{4\times 10}}(T_1-25)

By solving that equation we get

T_2=88.03°C

So outside temperature =88.03°C
