As per second law of thermodynamics, The amount of energy that must be lost to the environment for the process to take place is known as nature's heat tax.

What is second law of thermodynamics?

The second law of thermodynamics is a physical principle founded on the knowledge of how heat and energy are transformed throughout the world. Explanation of the law is that, without energy input to change the direction of heat flow, heat always goes "downhill," or from hotter to colder objects. The phrase "not all heat energy can be turned into work in a cyclic process" is another definition.

Every energy exchange is subject to the inevitable energy reduction known as "nature's heat tax." The majority of energy transactions lose some energy to the environment, making each transaction only marginally efficient. As a result, the energy is used most effectively when there are fewest number of transactions.

A circuit breaker is rated for a current of 25 a rms at a voltage of 240 v rms. (a) what is the largest value of imax that the b
Mademuasel [1]

The largest value of current that the breaker can carry = Imax=35.4A

Explanation:

Rms value of current= Irms= 25 A

The rms current and the maximum current are related as

Imax= √2 Irms

Imax=√2 (25)

Imax=35.4 A

Thus the maximum current carried by the breaker= 35.4 A

A 300 MHz electromagnetic wave in air (medium 1) is normally incident on the planar boundary of a lossless dielectric medium wit
Masja [62]

Answer:

Wavelength of the incident wave in air = 1 m

Wavelength of the incident wave in medium 2 = 0.33 m

Intrinsic impedance of media 1 = 377 ohms

Intrinsic impedance of media 2 = 125.68 ohms

Check the explanation section for a better understanding

Explanation:

a) Wavelength of the incident wave in air

The frequency of the electromagnetic wave in air, f = 300 MHz = 3 * 10⁸ Hz

Speed of light in air, c =  3 * 10⁸ Hz

Wavelength of the incident wave in air:

\lambda_{air} = \frac{c}{f} \\\lambda_{air} = \frac{3 * 10^{8} }{3 * 10^{8}} \\\lambda_{air} = 1 m

Wavelength of the incident wave in medium 2

The refractive index of air in the lossless dielectric medium:

n = \sqrt{\epsilon_{r} } \\n = \sqrt{9 }\\n =3

\lambda_{2} = \frac{c}{nf}\\\lambda_{2} = \frac{3 * 10^{6} }{3 * 3 * 10^{6}}\\\lambda_{2} = 1/3\\\lambda_{2} = 0.33 m

b) Intrinsic impedances of media 1 and media 2

The intrinsic impedance of media 1 is given as:

n_1 = \sqrt{\frac{\mu_0}{\epsilon_{0} } }

Permeability of free space, \mu_{0} = 4 \pi * 10^{-7} H/m

Permittivity for air, \epsilon_{0} = 8.84 * 10^{-12} F/m

n_1 = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi * 10^{-7}  }{8.84 * 10^{-12}  } }

n_1 = 377 \Omega

The intrinsic impedance of media 2 is given as:

n_2 = \sqrt{\frac{\mu_r \mu_0}{\epsilon_r \epsilon_{0} } }

Permeability of free space, \mu_{0} = 4 \pi * 10^{-7} H/m

Permittivity for air, \epsilon_{0} = 8.84 * 10^{-12} F/m

ϵr = 9

n_2 = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi * 10^{-7} *1 }{8.84 * 10^{-12} *9 } }

n_2 = 125.68 \Omega

c) The reflection coefficient,r  and the transmission coefficient,t at the boundary.

Reflection coefficient, r = \frac{n - n_{0} }{n + n_{0} }

You didn't put the refractive index at the boundary in the question, you can substitute it into the formula above to find it.

r = \frac{3 - n_{0} }{3 + n_{0} }

Transmission coefficient at the boundary, t = r -1

d) The amplitude of the incident electric field is E_{0} = 10 V/m

Maximum amplitudes in the total field is given by:

E = tE_{0} and E = r E_{0}

E = 10r, E = 10t

Who invented the wedge simple machine and why?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Gene Sarazen began to win tournaments in 1935 with a new club he had invented that was specialized for sand play. He is hailed as the inventor of the sand wedge.

Explanation:

A wedge is a triangular shaped tool, and is a portable inclined plane, and one of the six classical simple machines. It can be used to separate two objects or portions of an object, lift up an object, or hold an object in place. It functions by converting a force applied to its blunt end into forces perpendicular (normal) to its inclined surfaces. The mechanical advantage of a wedge is given by the ratio of the length of its slope to its width.[1][2] Although a short wedge with a wide angle may do a job faster, it requires more force than a long wedge with a narrow angle.

The force is applied on a flat, broad surface. This energy is transported to the pointy, sharp end of the wedge, hence the force is transported.

The wedge simply transports energy and collects it to the pointy end, consequently breaking the item. In this way, much pressure is put on a thin area.
