Explanation:

Ohm's law is used here. V = IR, and variations. The voltage across all elements is the same in this parallel circuit. (V1 =V2 =V3)

The total supply current is the sum of the currents in each of the branches. (It = I1 +I2 +I3)

Rt = (8 V)/(8 A) = 1 Ω . . . . supply voltage divided by supply current

I3 = 8A -3A -4A = 1 A . . . . supply current not flowing through other branches

R1 = (8 V)/(3 A) = 8/3 Ω

R2 = (8 V)/(4 A) = 2 Ω

R3 = (8 V)/(I3) = (8 V)/(1 A) = 8 Ω

V1 = V2 = V3 = 8 V

A power company desires to use groundwater from a hot spring to power a heat engine. If the groundwater is at 95 deg C and the a

prisoha [69]

Answer:

W = 12.8 KW

Explanation:

given data:

mass flow rate = 0.2 kg/s

Engine recieve heat from ground water at 95 degree ( 368 K) and reject that heat to atmosphere at 20 degree (293K)

we know that maximum possible efficiency is given as

$\eta = 1- \frac{T_L}{T_H}$

$\eta = 1 - \frac{ 293}{368}$

$\eta = 0.2038$

rate of heat transfer is given as

$Q_H = \dot m C_p \Delta T$

$Q_H = 0.2 * 4.18 8(95 - 20)$

$Q_H = 62.7 kW$

Maximuim power is given as

$W = \eta Q_H$

W = 0.2038 * 62.7

W = 12.8 KW
