When air is blown above the surface of liquid, it will take away the liquid carrying air particles from the air above the liquid, resulting in decrease in humidity and increase in rate of evaporation.

Hope that this was helpful :)

Answer:

Temperature: The greater the temperature of the liquid and its surroundings, the faster the rate of evaporation.The Surface area occupied by the liquid: Since evaporation is a surface phenomenon, the greater the surface area occupied by the liquid, the quicker it undergoes evaporation.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!

Steam at 100°C is condensed into a 38.0 g aluminum calorimeter cup containing 280 g of water at 25.0°C. Determine the amount of

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

7.2g

Explanation:

From the expression of latent heat of steam, we have

Heat supplied by steam = Heat gain water + Heat gain by calorimeter

mathematically,

$m_{s}c_{w} \alpha _{w}$ + $m_{s}l$ = $m_{w}c_{w} \alpha _{w}$ + $m_{c}c_{c} \alpha c_{c}$

L=specific latent heat of water(steam)=2268J/g

$c_{w}$ =specific heat capacity=4.2J/gK

$c_{c}$ =specific heat capacity of calorimeter =0.9J/gk

$m_{w}$ =280g

$m_{c}$ =38g

α=change in temperature

$\alpha _{c}$ =(40-25)=15

$\alpha _{w}$ =(40-25)=15

$\alpha _{s}$ =(100-40)=60

Note: the temperature of the calorimeter is the temperature of it content.

From the equation, we can make $m_{s}$ the subject of formula

$m_{s}=\frac{m_{w}c_{w} \alpha +m_{c}c_{c}\alpha}{c_{w}\alpha +l}$

Hence

$m_{s}=\frac{(280*4.2*15) +(38*0.9*15)}{(4.2*60) +2268} \\m_{s}=\frac{18153}{2520}\\ m_{s}=7.2g$

Hence the amount of steam needed is 7.2g

A motor keep a Ferris wheel (with moment of inertia 6.97 × 107 kg · m2 ) rotating at 8.5 rev/hr. When the motor is turned off, t

Talja [164]

Answer:

$P = 133.13 Watt$

Explanation:

Initial angular speed of the ferris wheel is given as

$\omega_i = 2\pi f$

$\omega_i = 2\pi(8.5/3600)$

$\omega_i = 0.015 rad/s$

final angular speed after friction is given as

$\omega_f = 2\pi f$

$\omega_f = 2\pi(7.5/3600)$

$\omega_f = 0.013 rad/s$

now angular acceleration is given as

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\Delta t}$

$\alpha = \frac{0.015 - 0.013}{15}$

$\alpha = 1.27 \times 10^{-4} rad/s^2$

now torque due to friction on the wheel is given as

$\tau = I \alpha$

$\tau = (6.97 \times 10^7)(1.27 \times 10^{-4})$

$\tau = 8875.3 N m$

Now the power required to rotate it with initial given speed is

$P = \tau \omega$

$P = 8875.3 \times 0.015$

$P = 133.13 Watt$

The seismic activity density of a region is the ratio of the number of earthquakes during a given time span to the land area aff

Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.0059

Explanation:

According to the question the seismic activity density is given by

$\text{Seismic activity density}=\frac{\text{Number of Earthquakes over a given time span}}{\text{The land area affected}}$

Here,

Number of Earthquakes over a given time span = 424

The land area affected = 71300 mi²

So,

$\text{Seismic activity density}=\frac{424}{71300}\\\Rightarrow \text{Seismic activity density}=0.0059$

The seismic activity density is 0.0059
