In midair in the international space station a 1 kg chunk of putty moving at 1 m/s collides with and sticks to a 5 kg chunk of p

utty initially at rest. at what speed does the 6 kg chunk travel after the collision?

<span>We know that the momentum keeps constant in a inelastic collisions, so the product of mass and speed do not change:
m1 * v1 + m2 * v2 = m * v
1 * 1 + 5 * 0 = (1 + 5) * v
1 = 6 * v
v = 1/6 m/s
So the final speed of the 6 kg chunk will travel at 0.167 m/s</span>

A counterflow double-pipe heat exchanger is used to heat water from 20°C to 80°C at a rate of 1.2 kg/s. The heating is to be com

bixtya [17]

Answer:L=109.16 m

Explanation:

Given

initial temperature $=20^{\circ}C$

Final Temperature $=80^{\circ}C$

mass flow rate of cold fluid $\dot{m_c}=1.2 kg/s$

Initial Geothermal water temperature $T_h_i=160^{\circ}C$

Let final Temperature be T

mass flow rate of geothermal water $\dot{m_h}=2 kg/s$

diameter of inner wall $d_i=1.5 cm$

$U_{overall}=640 W/m^2K$

specific heat of water $c=4.18 kJ/kg-K$

balancing energy

Heat lost by hot fluid=heat gained by cold Fluid

$\dot{m_c}c(T_h_i-T_h_e)= \dot{m_h}c(80-20)$

$2\times (160-T)=1.2\times (80-20)$

$160-T=36$

$T=124^{\circ}C$

As heat exchanger is counter flow therefore

$\Delta T_1=160-80=80^{\circ}C$

$\Delta T_2=124-20=104^{\circ}C$

$LMTD=\frac{\Delta T_1-\Delta T_2}{\ln (\frac{\Delta T_1}{\Delta T_2})}$

$LMTD=\frac{80-104}{\ln \frac{80}{104}}$

$LMTD=91.49^{\circ}C$

heat lost or gain by Fluid is equal to heat transfer in the heat exchanger

$\dot{m_c}c(80-20)=U\cdot A\cdot$ (LMTD)

$A=\frac{1.2\times 4.184\times 1000\times 60}{640\times 91.49}=5.144 m^2$

$A=\pi DL=5.144$

$L=\frac{5.144}{\pi \times 0.015}$

$L=109.16 m$

Select the correct answer.

natali 33 [55]

The wave speed completely depends on the characteristics and properties of the medium . . . physical properties for mechanical waves, electrical properties for electromagnedtic waves.

So if you want to change the speed of a wave, you have to change the medium . . . shoot it through some different kind of stuff. <em>(B) </em>
