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.

Violet light of wavelength 405 nm ejects electrons with a maximum kinetic energy of 0.890 eV from a certain metal. What is the b
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

  Ф = 2.179 eV

Explanation:

This exercise has electrons ejected from a metal, which is why it is an exercise on the photoelectric effect, which is explained assuming the existence of energy quanta called photons that behave like particles.

            E = K + Ф

the energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation

            E = h f

we substitute

           h f = K + Ф

           Ф= hf - K

the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

            c = λ f

            f = c /λ

            Φ = \frac{hc}{\lambda } - K

let's reduce the energy to the SI system

            K = 0.890 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1eV) = 1.424 10⁻¹⁹ J

calculate

           Ф = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/405 10⁻⁹  -1.424 10⁻¹⁹

           Ф = 4.911 10⁻¹⁹ - 1.424 10⁻¹⁹

           Ф = 3.4571 10⁻¹⁹ J

         

we reduce to eV

           Ф = 3.4871 10⁻¹⁹ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

           Ф = 2.179 eV

From a lake, water is pumped at a rate of 67 L/s to a storage tank positioned 14 m above while consuming 16.4 kW of electrical p
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

57 %

Explanation:

input power = 16.4 kW = 16.4 x 10^3 W = 16400 W

Water pumped per second = 67 L/s

Mass of water pumped per second, m = Volume of water pumped epr second x density of water

m = 67 x 10^-3 x 1000 = 67 kg/s

height raised, h = 14 m

Output Power = m x g x h / t = 67 x 10 x 14 = 9380 W

efficiency = output power / input power = 9380 / 16400 = 0.57

% efficiency = 57 %

thus, the efficiency of the pump is 57 %.

Stels [109]

In quantum mechanics, a central concept is that both matter and <u>energy</u> are alternate forms of the same entity and therefore both exhibit dual characteristics of particles and of <u>waves</u>.

Matter can be defined as anything that has mass and is able to occupy space.

Thus, any physical object or substance that is found on Earth is typically composed of matter.

Similarly, energy is highly affected by the mass of a any physical object or substance just like matter,

Hence, both energy and matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result of this fact, exhibit dual characteristics of particles and of waves.

A wave can be defined as a disturbance in a medium that progressively transports energy from a source location to another location without the transportation of matter.

In conclusion, this central concept makes it easier for us to better understand the behavior of tiny particles such as electrons.
