Q1. (20 marks) Entropy Analysis of the heat engine: consider a 35% efficient heat engine operating between a large, high- temper

ature reservoir at 1000 K (727 °C) and a large, cold reservoir at 308 K (35°C). If it withdraws 1.2 MJ/s from the high-temperature reservoir, what would be the rate of loss of entropy from that reservoir and what would be the rate of gain by the low-temperature reservoir? (4 marks) b. Express the work done by the engine in watts. (3 marks) What would be the total entropy gain of the system? d. Determine Carnot efficiency and recalculate the a, b, and c, accordingly.

The rate of gain for the high reservoir would be 780 kj/s.

A. η = 35%

$\frac{w}{Q1} = \frac{35}{100}$

W = $1.2*\frac{35}{100}*1000kj/s$

W = 420 kj/s

Q2 = Q1-W

= 1200-420

= 780 kJ/S

<h3>What is the workdone by this engine?</h3>

B. W = 420 kj/s

= 420x1000 w

= 4.2x10⁵W

The work done is 4.2x10⁵W

c. 780/308 - 1200/1000

= 2.532 - 1.2

= 1.332kj

The total enthropy gain is 1.332kj

D. Q1 = 1200

T1 = 1000

$\frac{1200}{1000} =\frac{Q2}{308} \\\\Q2 = 369.6 KJ$

<h3>Cournot efficiency = W/Q1</h3>

= 1200 - 369.6/1200

= 69.2 percent

change in s is zero for the reversible heat engine.

La probabilidad de que un nuevo producto tenga éxito es de 0.85. Si se eligen 10 personas al azar y se les pregunta si compraría

liq [111]

Answer:

La probabilidad pedida es $0.820196$

Explanation:

Sabemos que la probabilidad de que un nuevo producto tenga éxito es de 0.85. Sabemos también que se eligen 10 personas al azar y se les pregunta si comprarían el nuevo producto. Para responder a la pregunta, primero definiremos la siguiente variable aleatoria :

$X:$ '' Número de personas que adquirirán el nuevo producto de 10 personas a las que se les preguntó ''

Ahora bien, si suponemos que la probabilidad de que el nuevo producto tenga éxito se mantiene constante $(p=0.85)$ y además suponemos que hay independencia entre cada una de las personas al azar a las que se les preguntó ⇒ Podemos modelar a $X$ como una variable aleatoria Binomial. Esto se escribe :

$X$ ~ $Bi(n,p)$ en donde $''n''$ es el número de personas entrevistadas y $''p''$ es la probabilidad de éxito (una persona adquiriendo el producto) en cada caso.

Utilizando los datos ⇒ $X$ ~ $Bi(10,0.85)$

La función de probabilidad de la variable aleatoria binomial es :

$p_{X}(x)=P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}n&x\end{array}\right)p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}$ con $x=0,1,2,...,n$

Si reemplazamos los datos de la pregunta en la función de probabilidad obtenemos :

$P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}10&x\end{array}\right)(0.85)^{x}(0.15)^{10-x}$ con $x=0,1,2,...,10$

Nos piden la probabilidad de que por lo menos 8 personas adquieran el nuevo producto, esto es :

$P(X\geq 8)=P(X=8)+P(X=9)+P(X=10)$

Calculando $P(X=8), P(X=9)$ y $P(X=10)$ por separado y sumando, obtenemos que $P(X\geq 8)=0.820196$

In the fully developed region of flow in a circular pipe, does the velocity profile change in the flow direction?

taurus [48]

Answer:

<em>No, the velocity profile does not change in the flow direction.</em>

Explanation:

In a fluid flow in a circular pipe, the boundary layer thickness increases in the direction of flow, until it reaches the center of the pipe, and fill the whole pipe. If the density, and other properties of the fluid does not change either by heating or cooling of the pipe, <em>then the velocity profile downstream becomes fully developed, and constant, and does not change in the direction of flow.</em>

A second inventor was driving down the highway in her Prius one day with her hand out the window. She happened to be driving thr

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Explanation:

It wouldn't work because the wind energy she would be collecting would actually come from the car engine.

The relative wind velocity observed from a moving vehicle is the sum of the actual wind velocity and the velovity of the vehicle.

u' = u + v

While running a car will generate a rather high wind velocity, and increase the power generated by a wind turbine, the turbine would only be able to convert part of the wind energy into electricity while adding a lot of drag. In the end, it would generate less energy that what the drag casuses the car to waste to move the turbine.

Regenerative braking uses an electric generator connected to the wheel axle to recover part of the kinetic energy eliminated when one brakes the vehicle. Normal brakes dissipate this energy as heat, a regenerative brake uses it to recharge a batttery. Note that is is a fraction of the energy that is recovered, not all of it.

A "regenerative accelerator" makes no sense. Braking is taking kinetic energy out of the vehicle, while accelerating is adding kinetic energy to it. Cars accelerate using the power from their engines.

For which of 'water' flow velocities at 200C can we assume that the flow is incompressible ? a.1000 km per hour b. 500 km per ho

ad-work [718]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given

Temperature $=200^{\circ}\approc 473 K$

Also $\gamma for air=1.4$

R=287 J/kg

Flow will be In-compressible when Mach no.<0.32

Mach no. $=\frac{V}{\sqrt{\gamma RT}}$

(a) $1000 km/h\approx 277.78 m/s$

Mach no. $=\frac{277.78}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}$

Mach no.=0.63

(b) $500 km/h\approx 138.89 m/s$

Mach no. $=\frac{138.89}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}$

Mach no.=0.31

(c) $2000 km/h\approx 555.55 m/s$

Mach no. $=\frac{555.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}$

Mach no.=1.27

(d) $200 km/h\approx 55.55 m/s$

Mach no. $=\frac{55.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}$

Mach no.=0.127

From above results it is clear that for Flow at velocity 200 km/h ,it will be incompressible.
