Explain the concept of energy conversion as applied to the generation of electricity also known as electrical energy.

1 answer:

postnew [5]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

Electrical energy is energy derived as a result of movement of electrons. When used loosely, electrical energy refers to energy that has been converted from electric potential energy. ... Once converted from potential energy, electrical energy can always be called another type of energy (heat, light, motion, etc.).

(8 points) Air is used as the working fluid in a simple ideal Brayton cycle that has a pressure ratio of 12, a compressor inlet

trapecia [35]

Answer:

a ) $\dot m = 351.49 kg/s$

b) $\dot m_{actual} = 1046.15 kg/s$

Explanation:

given data:

pressure ration rp = 12

inlet temperature = 300 K

TURBINE inlet temperature = 1000 K

AT the end of isentropic process (compression) temperature is

$\frac{T_2'}{T_1} = rp ^{\frac{\gamma -1}{\gamma}}$

$\frac{T_2'}{300} = 12^{\frac{1.4 -1}{1.4}}$

$T_2' = 610.181 K$

AT the end of isentropic process (expansion) temperature is

$\frac{T_3}{T_4'} = rp ^{\frac{\gamma -1}{\gamma}}$

$\frac{1000'}{T_4'} = 12^{\frac{1.4 -1}{1.4}}$

$T_4' = 491.66 K$

isentropic work is given as

$w(compressor) = CP (T_2' -T_1)$

w = 1.005(610.18 - 300)

w = 311.73 kJ/kg

w(turbine) = 1.005( 1000 - 491.66)

w(turbine) = 510.88 kJ/kg

a) mass flow rate for isentropic process is given as

$\dot m = \frac{70000}{510.88 - 311.73}$

$\dot m = 351.49 kg/s$

b) actual mass flow rate uis given as

$\dot m_{actual} = \frac{70000}{51.088\times 0.85 - \frac{311.73}{0.85}}$

$\dot m_{actual} = 1046.15 kg/s$

Gold, which has a density of 19.32 g/cm3, is the most ductile metal and can be pressed into a thin leaf or drawn out into a long

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

a) 578.0 cm²

b) 25.18 km

Explanation:

We're given the density and mass, so first calculate the volume.

D = M / V

V = M / D

V = (6.740 g) / (19.32 g/cm³)

V = 0.3489 cm³

a) The volume of any uniform flat shape (prism) is the area of the base times the thickness.

V = Ah

A = V / h

A = (0.3489 cm³) / (6.036×10⁻⁴ cm)

A = 578.0 cm²

b) The volume of a cylinder is pi times the square of the radius times the length.

V = πr²h

h = V / (πr²)

h = (0.3489 cm³) / (π (2.100×10⁻⁴ cm)²)

h = 2.518×10⁶ cm

h = 25.18 km

Calculate the percentage increase in speed of the cyclist when the power output changes from 200 W to 300 W.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

<em>50%</em>

Explanation:

Given

Initial power = 200W

Final power = 300W

Increment = 300 - 200 = 100W

percentage increase = increment/initial power * 100

percentage increase = 100/200 * 100%

percentage increase = 0.5 * 100

percentage increase = 50%

<em>Hence the percentage increase in speed is 50%</em>
