A jetliner flying at an altitude of 10,000 m has a Mach number of 0.5. If the jetliner has to drop down to 1000 m but still main

tain the Mach number (0.5), how much faster must the jetliner fly?

Answer

Assuming

At 10000 m height temperature T = -55 C = 218 K

At 1000 m height temperature T = 0 C = 273 K

$\dfrac{V_1}{C_1} =\dfrac{V_2}{C_2} = 0.5$

R = 287 J/kg K

$C_1 = \sqrt{\gamma RT_1} = \sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 218} = 295 m/s$

$C_2 = \sqrt{\gamma RT_2} = \sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 273} = 331 m/s$

$V_2 = \dfrac{V_1}{C_1}\timesC_2$

V₂ = V₁ ×1.1222

V₁ = 0.5 × C₁ = 0.5 × 295 = 147.5 m/s

V₂ = 1.1222 × 147.5 = 165.49 m/s

so, the jetliner need to increase speed by ( V₂ -V₁ )

= 165.49 - 147.5

= 17.5 m/s

A rigid tank whose volume is 2 m3, initially containing air at 1 bar, 295 K, is connected by a valve to a large vessel holding a

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$Q_{cv}=-339.347kJ$

Explanation:

First we calculate the mass of the aire inside the rigid tank in the initial and end moments.

$P_iV_i=m_iRT_i$ (i could be 1 for initial and 2 for the end)

State1

$1bar*|\frac{100kPa}{1}|*2=m_1*0.287*295$

$m_1=232kg$

State2

$8bar*|\frac{100kPa}{1bar}|*2=m_2*0.287*350$

$m_2=11.946$

So, the total mass of the aire entered is

$m_v=m_2-m_1\\m_v=11.946-2.362\\m_v=9.584kg$

At this point we need to obtain the properties through the tables, so

For Specific Internal energy,

$u_1=210.49kJ/kg$

For Specific enthalpy

$h_1=295.17kJ/kg$

For the second state the Specific internal Energy (6bar, 350K)

$u_2=250.02kJ/kg$

At the end we make a Energy balance, so

$U_{cv}(t)-U_{cv}(t)=Q_{cv}-W{cv}+\sum_i m_ih_i - \sum_e m_eh_e$

No work done there is here, so clearing the equation for Q

$Q_{cv} = m_2u_2-m_1u_1-h_1(m_v)$

$Q_{cv} = (11.946*250.02)-(2.362*210.49)-(295.17*9.584)$

$Q_{cv}=-339.347kJ$

The sign indicates that the tank transferred heat<em> to</em> the surroundings.

An 1800-W toaster, a 1400-W electric frying pan, and a 75-W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15-A, 120-V circuit. The

Mila [183]

Answer:

a) Current drawn by the toaster = 15A

Current drawn by the electric frying pan = 11.67A

Current drawn by the lamp = 0.625A

b) This combination will blow the 15A fuse as the total current requirement for this setup exceeds the 15A rating of the fuse.

Explanation:

a) For parallel connection, there exists, the same voltage and different currents across all the devices.

Voltage cross each of the 3 devices = outlet voltage of 120V

From their respective power rating, current drawn by each device will be calculated.

P = IV

For the toaster, P = 1800 W, V = 120V

I = 1800/120 = 15A

For the electric frying pan, P = 1400 W, V = 120 V

I = 1400/120 = 11.67 A

For the lamp, P = 75 W, V = 120V

I = 75/120 = 0.625 A

b) Total current in a parallel connection setup = Sum total of all the currents.

Total current drawn by all 3 devices = 15 + 11.67 + 0.625 = 27.295A = 27.3 A

This total current requirement surpasses the 15A current rating of the fuse, therefore, this combination will blow the fuse.

Hope this Helps!!!

k0ka [10]

Answer:

A.) 0.3088

B.) 0.0017

C.) part A

Explanation:

A.)

$z1=$ $\frac{\left(150-137\right)}{27.7}$ $=0.4693$

$z2=\frac{\left(201-137\right)}{27.7}=2.3105$

$P(0.4693$

B.)

$z1=\frac{150-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}} =2.9309\\z2=\frac{201-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}}=14.4289$

$\\P(2.9309$

C.) Since the seat performance for an individual pilot is more important than 39 different pilots.
