maksim [4K]

As we know that force F makes an angle of 60 degree with X axis

so the X component is given as

cos60 = \frac{F_x}{F}

now we have

F_x = F cos60

F_x = 0.50 F

Similarly we know that force F makes an angle of 45 degree with Y axis

so the X component is given as

cos45 = \frac{F_y}{F}

now we have

F_y = F cos45

F_y = 0.707 F

Now for the component along z axis we know that

F_x^2 + F_y^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

now plug in all components

(0.707 F)^2 + (0.50 F)^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

0.5 F^2 + 0.25 F^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

F_z^2 = F^2(1 - 0.75)

F_z^2 = 0.25 F^2

F_z = 0.5 F

A frictionless piston-cylinder device contains 10 kg of superheated vapor at 550 kPa and 340oC. Steam is then cooled at constant
Alla [95]

Answer:

a) the work (W) done during the process is -2043.25 kJ

b) the work (W) done during the process is -2418.96 kJ

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mass of water vapor m = 10 kg

initial pressure P₁ = 550 kPa

Initial temperature T₁ = 340 °C

steam cooled at constant pressure until 60 percent of it, by mass, condenses; x = 100% - 60% = 40% = 0.4

from superheated steam table

specific volume v₁ = 0.5092 m³/kg

so the properties of steam at p₂ = 550 kPa, and dryness fraction

x = 0.4

specific volume v₂ = v_f + xv_{fg

v₂ = 0.001097 + 0.4( 0.34261 - 0.001097 )

v₂ = 0.1377 m³/kg

Now, work done during the process;

W = mP₁( v₂ - v₁ )

W = 10 × 550( 0.1377 - 0.5092 )

W = 5500 × -0.3715

W = -2043.25 kJ

Therefore, the work (W) done during the process is -2043.25 kJ

( The negative, indicates work is done on the system )

b)

What would the work done be if steam were cooled at constant pressure until 80 percent of it, by mass, condenses

x₂ = 100% - 80% = 20% = 0.2

specific volume v₂ = v_f + x₂v_{fg

v₂ = 0.001097 + 0.2( 0.34261 - 0.001097 )

v₂ = 0.06939 m³/kg

Now, work done during the process will be;

W = mP₁( v₂ - v₁ )

W = 10 × 550( 0.06939 - 0.5092 )

W = 5500 × -0.43981

W = -2418.96 kJ

Therefore, the work (W) done during the process is -2418.96 kJ

Escape velocity of an object from the surface of a planet depends upon:
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Escape velocity: Measuring the gravitational strength of an object

The escape velocity is the exact amount of energy you would need to escape the gravitational clutches of an object with mass. Since all objects have mass, they all have a measureable gravitational strength. A good way to think about escape velocity is to think about a deep well (physicists like to think of this as an energy well). If you are at the bottom of the well and want to get out (to escape), you need enough energy to climb out. The deeper the well, the more energy you will have to expend in order to climb to

the top. If you have only enough energy to get half way out, you will eventually fall back to the bottom. The escape velocity is a way of measuring the exact amount of energy needed to reach the lip of the well -- and have no energy left over for walking away.

When a ball is thrown up into the air from the surface of the Earth, it does not have enough energy to escape. So it falls back down. How might we enable the ball to escape? Throw it harder, give it more energy. How hard must we throw it? Just hard enough to get over the top, over the edge of the well.

We can find this energy directly by saying that the kinetic energy of the thrown ball must exactly equal the 'potential energy' of the well. From basic physics we know that the potential energy for an object at a height above a surface is:

Epotential= GMm/R

where

G = Newton's universal constant of gravity = 6.67 x 10-11 N-m2/kg3

M = the mass of the 'attracting object' [the planet] [in units of kg]

m = the mass of the object trying to escape [e.g., me or a ball or a rocket or a molecule] [in kg]

R = the distance between the centers of objects M and m [in units of m]

note: provided we do everything in the same units, we don't have to worry about units

while the kinetic energy we know from above:

Ekinetic=0.5 m v2

where

m = mass of the moving object [in kg]

v = the velocity of object m [in m/sec]

If we set these two energies equal to each other, and solve for v, we find the exact velocity needed to escape from the energy well:

0.5 m v2= GMm/R

v= (2GM/R)0.5

and since this velocity is exactly what is needed to 'escape,' it is called the escape velocity:

vescape= (2GM/R)0.5
