A domestic water heater holds 189 L of water at 608C, 1 atm. Determine the exergy of the hot water, in kJ. To what elevation, in

A.

The energy of the hot water is 482630400 J

Using Q = mcΔT where Q = energy of hot water, m = mass of water = ρV where ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³ and V = volume of water = 189 L = 0.189 m³,

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg-°C and ΔT = temperature change of water = T₂ - T₁ where T₂ = final temperature of water = 608 °C. If we assume the water was initially at 0°C, T₁ = 0 °C. So, the temperature change ΔT = 608 °C - 0 °C = 608 °C

Substituting the values of the variables into the  equation, we have

Q = mcΔT

Q = ρVcΔT

Q = 1000 kg/m³ × 0.189 m³ × 4200 J/kg-°C × 608 °C

Q = 482630400 J

So, the energy of the hot water is 482630400 J

B.

The elevation <u>the mass would have to be raised from zero elevation relative to the reference environment for its exergy to equal that of the hot water</u> is 49248 m.

Using the equation for gravitational potential energy ΔU = mgΔh where m = mass of object = 1000 kg, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and Δh = h - h' where h = required elevation and h' = zero level elevation = 0 m

Since the energy of the mass equal the energy of the hot water, ΔU = 482630400 J

So, ΔU = mgΔh

ΔU = mg(h - h')

making h subject of the formula, we have

h = h' + ΔU/mg

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

h = h' + ΔU/mg

h = 0 m + 482630400 J/(1000 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 0 m + 482630400 J/(9800 kgm/s²)

h = 0 m + 49248 m

h = 49248 m

So, the elevation <u>the mass would have to be raised from zero elevation relative to the reference environment for its exergy to equal that of the hot water</u> is 49248 m.

Mkey [24]

When it rains, dust particles and oil residues float on the water and this reduces the traction of tires.

<h3>What is traction?</h3>

This concept refers to a force between the tires and road that causes the movement of the wheels or vehicle is slower.

<h3>What happens with traction when it rains?</h3>

It is well-known more accidents occur when it rains, which is caused by cars slidding on the road. This is because when it rains traction or the grip of the wheel drastically reduces.

When Alana moving 19km/h, a stationary object will be perceived by her as moving toward her with 19km/h velocity. If the object is not stationary(velocity isn't zero), the speed will increase by the object velocity.

the speed of Alana + true speed of the tennis ball
19km/h+ 11km/h= 30km/h

The Earth can be approximated as a sphere of uniform density, rotating on its axis once a day. The mass of the Earth is 5.97×102
svetlana [45]

Answer:

I = 97.2 10³⁶ kg m²

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of a body the expression of inertia in the rotational movement and is described by the expression

      I = ∫ r² dm

In this problem we are told to use the moment of inertia of a uniform sphere, the expression of this moment of inertia is

     I = 2/5 M r²

where m is the mass of the earth and r is the radius of the earth.

Let's calculate

      I = 2/5  5.97 10²⁴ (6.38 10⁶)²

      I = 97.2 10³⁶ kg m²
