Answer:

The particles that make up Saturn's rings revolve around the planet. ... As Saturn spins around, so do its rings, rotating with the planet. More exactly, it is the millions of particles that make up these rings which rotate in the same direction as Saturn

How can I solve 23.5 million Nona meters to millimeters using no calculator because I have to show my work

lozanna [386]

Answer:

its so simple. u must mind some formulas.

Explanation:

mili->10^(-3)

micro->10^(-6)

nano->10^(-9)

so write the exact number and move "." to left or right depend question.

in this one:

23.5 is 23500000.0 nano with a default dot at the end

for turning to mili u must move the dot 6 steps to left so it will be: 23.5 milimeter.

A 50 Hz, four pole turbo-generator rated 100 MVA, 11 kV has an inertia constant of 8.0 MJ/MVA. (a) Find the stored energy in the

raketka [301]

Given Information:

Frequency = f = 60 Hz

Complex rated power = G = 100 MVA

Intertia constant = H = 8 MJ/MVA

Mechanical power = Pmech = 80 MW

Electrical power = Pelec = 50 MW

Number of poles = P = 4

No. of cycles = 10

Required Information:

(a) stored energy = ?

(b) rotor acceleration = ?

Answer:

(a) stored energy = 800 Mj

(b) rotor acceleration = 337.46 elec deg/s²

Explanation:

(a) Find the stored energy in the rotor at synchronous speed.

The stored energy is given by

$E = G \times H$

Where G represents complex rated power and H is the inertia constant of turbo-generator.

$E = 100 \times 8 \\\\E = 800 \: MJ$

(b) If the mechanical input is suddenly raised to 80 MW for an electrical load of 50 MW, find rotor acceleration, neglecting mechanical and electrical losses.

The rotor acceleration is given by

$P_a = P_{mech} - P_{elec} = M \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}$

Where M is given by

$M = \frac{E}{180 \times f}$

$M = \frac{800}{180 \times 50}$

$M = 0.0889 \: MJ \cdot s/ elec \: \: deg$

So, the rotor acceleration is

$P_a = 80 - 50 = 0.0889 \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}$

$30 = 0.0889 \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}$

$\frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} = \frac{30}{0.0889}$

$\frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} = 337.46 \:\: elec \: deg/s^2$

(c) If the acceleration calculated in part(b) is maintained for 10 cycles, find the change in torque angle and rotor speed in revolutions per minute at the end of this period.

The change in torque angle is given by

$\Delta \delta = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}\cdot (t)^2$

Where t is given by

$1 \: cycle = 1/f = 1/50 \\\\10 \: cycles = 10/50 = 0.2 \\\\t = 0.2 \: sec$

So,

$\Delta \delta = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 337.46 \cdot (0.2)^2$

$$ \Delta \delta = 6.75 \: elec \: deg$

The change in torque in rpm/s is given by

$\Delta \delta = \frac{337.46 \cdot 60}{2 \cdot 360\circ }$

$\Delta \delta =28.12 \: \: rpm/s$

The rotor speed in revolutions per minute at the end of this period (10 cycles) is given by

$Rotor \: speed = \frac{120 \cdot f}{P} + (\Delta \delta)\cdot t$

Where P is the number of poles of the turbo-generator.

$Rotor \: speed = \frac{120 \cdot 50}{4} + (28.12)\cdot 0.2$

$Rotor \: speed = 1500 + 5.62$

$$ Rotor \: speed = 1505.62 \:\: rpm$

An asbestos pad is square in cross section, measuring 5 cm on a side at its small end increasing linearly to 10 cm on a side at

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

q = 1.73 W

Explanation:

given data

small end = 5 cm

large end = 10 cm

high = 15 cm

small end is held = 600 K

large end at = 300 K

thermal conductivity of asbestos = 0.173 W/mK

solution

first we will get here side of cross section that is express as

$S = S1 + \frac{S2-S1}{L} x$ ...............1

here x is distance from small end and S1 is side of square at small end

and S2 is side of square of large end and L is length

put here value and we get

S = 5 + $\frac{10-5}{15} x$

S = $\frac{0.15 + x}{3}$ m

and

now we get here Area of section at distance x is

area A = S² ...............2

area A = $(\frac{0.15 + x}{3})^2$ m²

and

now we take here small length dx and temperature difference is dt

so as per fourier law

heat conduction is express as

heat conduction q = $\frac{-k\times A\ dt}{dx}$ ...............3

put here value and we get

heat conduction q = $-k\times (\frac{0.15 + x}{3})^2 \ \frac{dt}{dx}$

it will be express as

$q \times \frac{dx}{(\frac{0.15 + x}{3})^2} = -k (dt)$

now we intergrate it with limit 0 to 0.15 and take temp 600 to 300 K

$q \int\limits^{0.15}_0 {\frac{dx}{(\frac{0.15 + x}{3})^2 } = -0.173 \int\limits^{300}_{600} {dt}$

solve it and we get

q (30) = (0.173) × (600 - 300)

q = 1.73 W
