Starting from the results of Examples 5.4 and 5.5, estimate the number of cubic meters of water that would flow each second through an OTEC plant large enough ( 1000 M W e 1000 MWe) to provide electricity for Miami. Use the approximation of an ideal heat engine as in the examples. If this water flows at a velocity of 4 m / s 4 m/s, what would be the necessary diameter of the pipes?

Abaseball has a mass of 0.145 kg and approaches a bat at 40.0 m/s. after it is hit, the ball leaves the bat at 50.0 m/s directly back. find the impulse of the bat on the ball. 7.25 kg*m/s 13.1 kg*m/s 5.80 kg*m/s 1.45 kg*m/s

The astronauts on the space shuttle flights experienced an acceleration of 29 m/s2 (about 3 "g's") during lift-off. what upward force must the astronaut's seat apply to the astronaut in order to cause this acceleration? assume the astronaut's mass is 70 kg, and compute this force when the acceleration is near the earth's surface so their weight equals latex: mg m g .

The bubbles in a carbonated soft drink are produced when carbonic acid decomposes to form carbon dioxide and water. in a closed system, this equilibrium exists as why does a carbonated soft drink lose carbonation when the container is left open? a.water evaporates, which favors the formation of h2co3. b.pressure decreases, which favors the formation of h2co3. c.the open container warms up, which causes more gas to escape. d.co2is removed, which favors the formation of h2co3.
