Answer:

80% of the people that were killed weren't wearing a safety flotation device ( in correct terminology Personal Flotation Device, or PFD )

Explanation:

Hence they drowned due to the lack of safety.

A charge of +2.00 μC is at the origin and a charge of –3.00 μC is on the y axis at y = 40.0 cm . (a) What is the potential at po
Nimfa-mama [501]

a) Potential in A: -2700 V

b) Potential difference: -26,800 V

c) Work: 4.3\cdot 10^{-15} J

Explanation:

a)

The electric potential at a distance r from a single-point charge is given by:

V(r)=\frac{kq}{r}

where

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

In this problem, we have a system of two charges, so the total potential at a certain point will be given by the algebraic sum of the two potentials.

Charge 1 is

q_1=+2.00\mu C=+2.00\cdot 10^{-6}C

and is located at the origin (x=0, y=0)

Charge 2 is

q_2=-3.00 \mu C=-3.00\cdot 10^{-6}C

and is located at (x=0, y = 0.40 m)

Point A is located at (x = 0.40 m, y = 0)

The distance of point A from charge 1 is

r_{1A}=0.40 m

So the potential due to charge 2 is

V_1=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(+2.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.40}=+4.50\cdot 10^4 V

The distance of point A from charge 2 is

r_{2A}=\sqrt{0.40^2+0.40^2}=0.566 m

So the potential due to charge 1 is

V_2=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(-3.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.566}=-4.77\cdot 10^4 V

Therefore, the net potential at point A is

V_A=V_1+V_2=+4.50\cdot 10^4 - 4.77\cdot 10^4=-2700 V

b)

Here we have to calculate the net potential at point B, located at

(x = 0.40 m, y = 0.30 m)

The distance of charge 1 from point B is

r_{1B}=\sqrt{(0.40)^2+(0.30)^2}=0.50 m

So the potential due to charge 1 at point B is

V_1=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(+2.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.50}=+3.60\cdot 10^4 V

The distance of charge 2 from point B is

r_{2B}=\sqrt{(0.40)^2+(0.40-0.30)^2}=0.412 m

So the potential due to charge 2 at point B is

V_2=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(-3.00\cdot 10^{-6})}{0.412}=-6.55\cdot 10^4 V

Therefore, the net potential at point B is

V_B=V_1+V_2=+3.60\cdot 10^4 -6.55\cdot 10^4 = -29,500 V

So the potential difference is

V_B-V_A=-29,500 V-(-2700 V)=-26,800 V

c)

The work required to move a charged particle across a potential difference is equal to its change of electric potential energy, and it is given by

W=q\Delta V

where

q is the charge of the particle

\Delta V is the potential difference

In this problem, we have:

q=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C is the charge of the electron

\Delta V=-26,800 V is the potential difference

Therefore, the work required on the electron is

W=(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-26,800)=4.3\cdot 10^{-15} J

A second inventor was driving down the highway in her Prius one day with her hand out the window. She happened to be driving thr
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Explanation:

It wouldn't work because the wind energy she would be collecting would actually come from the car engine.

The relative wind velocity observed from a moving vehicle is the sum of the actual wind velocity and the velovity of the vehicle.

u' = u + v

While running a car will generate a rather high wind velocity, and increase the power generated by a wind turbine, the turbine would only be able to convert part of the wind energy into electricity while adding a lot of drag. In the end, it would generate less energy that what the drag casuses the car to waste to move the turbine.

Regenerative braking uses an electric generator connected to the wheel axle to recover part of the kinetic energy eliminated when one brakes the vehicle. Normal brakes dissipate this energy as heat, a regenerative brake uses it to recharge a batttery. Note that is is a fraction of the energy that is recovered, not all of it.

A "regenerative accelerator" makes no sense. Braking is taking kinetic energy out of the vehicle, while accelerating is adding kinetic energy to it. Cars accelerate using the power from their engines.

Consider a Carnot heat pump cycle executed in a steady-flow system in the saturated mixture region using R-134a flowing at a rat
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

7.15

Explanation:

Firstly, the COP of such heat pump must be measured that is,

              COP_{HP}=\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_L}

Therefore, the temperature relationship, T_H=1.15\;T_L

Then, we should apply the values in the COP.

                           =\frac{1.15\;T_L}{1.15-1}

                           =7.67

The number of heat rejected by the heat pump must then be calculated.

                   Q_H=COP_{HP}\times W_{nst}

                          =7.67\times5=38.35

We must then calculate the refrigerant mass flow rate.

                   m=0.264\;kg/s

                   q_H=\frac{Q_H}{m}

                         =\frac{38.35}{0.264}=145.27

The h_g value is 145.27 and therefore the hot reservoir temperature is 64° C.

The pressure at 64 ° C is thus 1849.36 kPa by interpolation.

And, the lowest reservoir temperature must be calculated.

                   T_L=\frac{T_H}{1.15}

                        =\frac{64+273}{1.15}=293.04

                        =19.89\°C

the lowest reservoir temperature = 258.703  kpa                    

So, the pressure ratio should be = 7.15

An example of a transient analysis involving the 1st law of thermodynamics and conservation of mass is the filling of a compress
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

<em>The temperature will be greater than 25°C</em>

Explanation:

In an adiabatic process, heat is not transferred to or from the boundary of the system. The gain or loss of internal heat energy is solely from the work done on the system, or work done by the system. The work done on the system by the environment adds heat to the system, and work done by the system on its environment takes away heat from the system.

mathematically

Change in the internal energy of a system ΔU = ΔQ + ΔW

in an adiabatic process, ΔQ = 0

therefore

ΔU = ΔW

where ΔQ is the change in heat into the system

ΔW is the work done by or done on the system

when work is done on the system, it is conventionally negative, and vice versa.

also W = pΔv

where p is the pressure, and

Δv = change in volume of the system.

In this case,<em> work is done on the gas by compressing it from an initial volume to the new volume of the cylinder. The result is that the temperature of the gas will rise above the initial temperature of 25°C </em>
