The efficiency of a carnot engine is more when the temperature of the sink is increased by 50% is 33.33%

<h3>What is Efficiency?</h3>

The efficiency is defined as the work done by the engine divided by the heat supplied.

Work done is the difference between the heat supplied and heat rejected.

So, efficiency η = 1 - T₁/T₂

Where T₁ is the lower temperature and T₂ is the higher temperature.

The temperature of the sink is increased by 50%. If the lower temperature is T₁, then the higher temperature will be 1.50T₁

Substitute the value into the expression , we get

η = 1 - T₁ / 1.5T₁ x 100 %

η = 33.33 %

Thus, the efficiency of the carnot engine is 33.33 %

Would water molecules in Venus’ atmosphere, whose temperature is 740 K, escape into outer space? A water molecule has a mass tha

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus.

Explanation:

The average speed of gas molecules is given by:

$v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}$

R is the gas constant, T is the temperature and M the molar mass of the gas.

We know that a water molecule has a mass that is 18 times that of a hydrogen atom:

$M_H=1.01*10^{-3}\frac{kg}{mol}\\M_{H2O}=18M_H=0.02\frac{kg}{mol}$

So, we have:

$v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3(8.314\frac{J}{mol \cdot K})740K}{0.02\frac{kg}{mol}}}\\v_{rms}=960.65\frac{m}{s}*\frac{1km}{1000m}=0.96\frac{km}{s}$

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus:

$10\frac{km}{s}*\frac{1}{6}=1.6\frac{km}{s}\\0.96\frac{km}{s}$

Why does the sky change colors at sunset?

KiRa [710]

Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height. ... Refraction not only affects visible light rays, but all electromagnetic radiation, although in varying degrees.

So in short, the answer is D.
