Answer with Explanation:
1) The advantages of fission energy are:
a) Higher concentration of energy : Concentration of energy or the energy density is defined as the amount of energy that is produced by burning a unit mass of the fuel. The nuclear energy obtained by fission has the highest energy density among all the other natural sources of energy such as coal,gas,e.t.c.
b) Cheap source of energy : The cost at which the energy is produced by a nuclear reactor after it is operational is the lowest among all the other sources of energy such as coal, solar,e.t.c
2) The disadvantages of fission energy are:
a) Highly dangerous residue: The fuel that is left unspent is highly radioactive and thus is very dangerous. Usually the residual material is taken deep into the earth for it's disposal.
b) It has high initial costs of design and development: The cost to design a nuclear reactor and to built one after it is designed is the most among all other types of energy sources and requires highly skilled personnel for operation.

Answer:
C. Welded contacts on the thermostat
Explanation:
Any fault that keeps the heating element heating when it should not is a fault that will cause the symptom described. The details <em>depend on the design of the brewer</em> (not given).
"A short at the terminals" depends on what terminals are being referenced. The device on-off switch terminals are normally connected together when the brewer is turned on, so a short there may not be observable.
"Welded contacts on the thermostat" will have the observed effect if the thermostat is the primary means of ending the brewing cycle. If the thermostat of interest is an overheat protective device not normally involved in ending the brewing cycle, then that fault may not cause the observed symptom.
__
If the heating element is open-circuit, no heating will occur. A gasket leak may cause a puddle, but may have nothing to do with the end of the brewing cycle. (Loss of water can be expected to end boiling, rather than prolong it.)
Answer:
a. V = 109.64 × 10⁵ ft/min
b. Mw = 654519.54 kg/hr
Explanation:
Given Parameters
mass flow rate of water, Mw = 90000g/min = 6607.33 kg/s
inlet temperature of water, T1 = 84 F = 28.89 C
outlet temperature of water, T2 = 68 F = 20 C
specific heat capacity of water, c = 4.18kJ/kgK
rate of heat remover from water, Qw is given by
Qw = 6607.33[28.89 - 20] * 4.18
Qw = 245529.545kw
For air, inlet condition
DBT = 70 F hi = 43.43 kJ/kg
WBT = 60 F wi = 0.00874 kJ/kg
u1 = 0.8445 m/kg
oulet condition,
DBT = 70 F RH = 100.1
h1 = 83.504kJ/kg
Wo = 0.222kJ/kg

Answer:
Explanation:
given data:
pressure 1 MPa
diameter of pipe = 30 cm
average velocity = 10 m/s
area of pipe
A = 0.070 m2
WE KNOW THAT mass flow rate is given as
for pressure 1 MPa, the density of steam is = 4.068 kg/m3
therefore we have
