The energy of the snack in calories per gram is 9983.3 Calories/gram.

<h3>What is the energy of a snack?</h3>

The energy that is contained in a snack is obtained from a calorimeter when the snack is burnt in a calorimeter. The mass of the snack that is burnt is measured in terms of energy output of the calorimeter.

If 1 calorie = 4.18J

x calorie = 41,800 J

x = 41,800 J * 1 calorie/4.18J

x = 9983.3 Calories/gram

A steam engine (assume a Carnot engine ) has an efficiency of 50.8%. If the waste heat has a temperature of 72.4 ◦C, what is the

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The temperature of the boiler is approximately 147.1 °C

Explanation:

A Carnot engine is an ideal engine that has the highest efficiency among all the engines because the second law of thermodynamics.That efficiency $\eta$ is:

$\eta=1-\frac{T_{c}}{T_{h}}$

with $T_{h}$ the temperature of the hot reservoir (the boiler temperature) and $T_{c}$ the temperature of the cold reservoir (the steam temperature). Solving for $T_{h}$ :
