Answer:
False
Explanation:
According to the big bang theory, matter was an infinitely small and very high density point which at one point exploded and expanded in all directions, creating what we know as our Universe, which also includes space and time . This happened about 13.8 billion years ago. Theoretical physicists have managed to reconstruct this chronology of events from 1/100 of a second after the Big Bang. After the explosion, while the Universe expanded, it cooled sufficiently and the first subatomic particles were formed: Electrons, Positrons, Mesons, Barions, Neutrinos, Photons among others. Today more than 90 particles are known. This theory solves many unknowns and is very well received by the scientific community, however there is still much to solve, for example, one of the great unsolved scientific problems in the expanding Universe model is whether the Universe is open or closed.
An attempt to solve this problem is to determine if the average density of matter in the Universe is greater than the critical value in Friedmann's model. The mass of a galaxy can be measured by observing the movement of its stars; multiplying the mass of each galaxy by the number of galaxies, it is seen that the density is only 5 to 10% of the critical value.
Answer:
Final temperature, T2 = 314.9 Kelvin
Explanation:
Given the following data:
Mass = 0.9kg
Initial temperature, T1 = 10°C to Kelvin = 10 + 273 = 283K
Quantity of heat = 120,000 J
Specific heat capacity = 4182 j/kgK
To find the final temperature;
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
Where;
Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
m represents the mass of an object.
c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
dt represents the change in temperature.
Making dt the subject of formula, we have;
Substituting into the equation, we have;
dt = 31.9K
Now, the final temperature T2 is;
But, dt = T2 - T1
T2 = dt + T1
T2 = 31.9 + 283
T2 = 314.9 Kelvin

Explanation:
Notice that the condenser section includes both the hot water and space heater and station (3) is specified as being in the Quality region. Assume that 50°C is a reasonable maximum hot water temperature for home usage, thus at a high pressure of 1.6 MPa, the maximum power available for hot water heating will occur when the refrigerant at station (3) reaches the saturated liquid state. (Quick Quiz: justify this statement). Assume also that the refrigerant at station (4) reaches a subcooled liquid temperature of 20°C while heating the air.
Using the conditions shown on the diagram and assuming that station (3) is at the saturated liquid state
a) On the P-h diagram provided below carefully plot the five processes of the heat pump together with the following constant temperature lines: 50°C (hot water), 13°C (ground loop), and -10°C (outside air temperature)
b) Using the R134a property tables determine the enthalpies at all five stations and verify and indicate their values on the P-h diagram.
c) Determine the mass flow rate of the refrigerant R134a. [0.0127 kg/s]
d) Determine the power absorbed by the hot water heater [2.0 kW] and that absorbed by the space heater [0.72 kW].
e) Determine the time taken for 100 liters of water at an initial temperature of 20°C to reach the required hot water temperature of 50°C [105 minutes].
f) Determine the Coefficient of Performance of the hot water heater [COPHW = 4.0] (defined as the heat absorbed by the hot water divided by the work done on the compressor)
g) Determine the Coefficient of Performance of the heat pump [COPHP = 5.4] (defined as the total heat rejected by the refrigerant in the hot water and space heaters divided by the work done on the compressor)
h) What changes would be required of the system parameters if no geothermal water loop was used, and the evaporator was required to absorb its heat from the outside air at -10°C. Discuss the advantages of the geothermal heat pump system over other means of space and water heating
Answer:The small, individual helium molecules can escape through the tiny holes in the latex far more easily than the conjoined oxygen or nitrogen molecules can. ... This is why your helium balloons deflate faster than the ones you fill with air.
