How to calculate your reaction time with a ruler

Physics

Record the point at which you caught the ruler, to the nearest cm. Measure from the bottom of your thumb. You can use this table to convert the measurement on the ruler into your reaction time in seconds. The less time it takes you to catch the ruler, the faster your reaction.

What you need to do:

Sit or stand with your arm stretched out in front of you. Hold out your thumb and your first finger.
Your partner needs to hold the ruler from the 30cm end and position the 0cm end just above the gap between your outstretched thumb and first finger. Make sure you aren’t touching the ruler!
Without giving you a warning, your partner needs to drop the ruler.
Catch the ruler, as quickly as you can, using just your thumb and finger. If you miss, make sure you watch out for your face or toes! And then have another go.

Water vapor enters a turbine operating at steady state at 500°C, 40 bar, with a velocity of 200 m/s, and expands adiabatically t
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

W = 5701 KW

Explanation:

From the question let inlet be labelled as point 1 and exit as point 2, for the fluid steam, we can get the following;

Inlet (1): P1 = 40 bar ; T1 = 500°C and V1 = 200 m/s

Exit(2) : At saturated vapour; P2 = 0.8 bar and V2 = 150 m/s

Volumetric flow rate = 15 m^(3)/s

Now, to solve this question, we assume constant average values, steeady flow and adiabatic flow.

Specific volume for steam at P2 = 0.8 bar in the saturated vapour state can be gotten from saturated steam tables(find a sample of the table attached to this answer).

So from the table,

v2 = 2.087 m^(3)/kg

Now, mass flow rate (m) = (AV) /v

Where AV is the volumetric flow rate.

Thus, the mass flow rate at exit could be calculated as;

m = 15/(2.087) = 7.17 kg/s

We also know energy equation could be defined as;

Q-W = m[(h1 - h2) + {(V2(^2) - (V1(^2)} /2)} + g(Z2 - Z1)]

Since the flow is adiabatic, potential energy can be taken to be zero. Therefore, we get;

-W = m[(h2 - h1) + {(V2(^2) - (V1(^2)} /2)}

From, table 2, i attached , at P1 = 40 bar and T1 = 500°C; specific enthalpy was calculated to be h1 = 3445.3 KJ/Kg

Likewise, at P2 = 0.8 bar; from the table, we get specific enthalpy as;

h2 = 2665.8 KJ/Kg

So we now calculate power developed;

W = - 7.17 [(2665.8 - 3445.3) + {(150^(2) - 200^(2))/2000 = 5701KW

Since the sign is not negative but positive, it means that the power is developed from the system.
