An engine manufacturer makes the claim that the engine they have developed will, on each cycle, take 100J of heat out of boiling

water at 100∘C, do mechanical work of 80J, and exhaust 20J of heat at 10∘C. What, if anything, is wrong with this claim?

Answer:

Explanation:

Intake heat, QH = 100 J

output heat, Qc = 20 J

Work, W = 80 J

TH = 100°C = 373 K

Tc = 10°C = 283 K

TH/ Tc =  373 / 283 = 1.318

QH/Qc = 100 / 20 = 5

for a heat engine, those ratios should be same. so temperature is not correct.

It is determined that a certain light wave has a wavelength of 3.012 ×10−12 m. The light travels at 2.99 ×108 m/s. What is the f
horsena [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity=frequency*wavelength

velocity = 2.99*10^8 m/s

frequency = ?

wavelength = 3.012*10^-12

2.99*10^8m/s = (f)(3.012*10^-12)

f=9.58*10^19 Hertz

A person pushes a 10 kg box from rest and accelerates it to a speed of 4 m/s with a constant force. If the box is pushed for a t
lutik1710 [3]

The box is accelerated from rest to 4 m/s in a matter of 2.5 s, so its acceleration <em>a</em> is such that

4 m/s = <em>a</em> (2.5 s)   →   <em>a</em> = (4 m/s) / (2.5 s) = 1.6 m/s²

Then the force applied to the box has a magnitude <em>F</em> such that

<em>F</em> = (10 kg) (1.6 m/s²) = 16 N
