Suppose you could rig up a pair of pulley systems and get a friend, who is as strong as you, to pull one of them. You'd still have trouble, but you might be able to do it because each pulley would lift half the weight, or 1,000 pounds, and a quarter of that weight is 250 pounds

Type the correct answer in the box. use numerals instead of words. anne has a sample of a substance. its volume is 20 cm3, and i
CaHeK987 [17]

The density of sample is 5 g/cm3

Given:

volume of sample = 20 cm3

mass of sample = 100 grams

To Find:

density of sample

Solution: Density is the measure of how much “stuff” is in a given amount of space. For example, a block of the heavier element lead (Pb) will be denser than the softer, lighter element gold (Au). A block of Styrofoam is less dense than a brick. It is defined as mass per unit volume

density = mass/volume

d = 100/20

d = 5 g/cm3

So, density of sample is 5 g/cm3

A copper cylinder is initially at 21.1 ∘C . At what temperature will its volume be 0.163 % larger than it is at 21.1 ∘C?
fomenos

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the final volume of a body after undergoing a thermal expansion. To determine the temperature, we will use the given relationship as well as the theoretical value of the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion of copper. This is, for example to the initial volume defined as V_1, the relation with the final volume as

V_2 = V_1 +0.163\% V_1

V_2 = V_1 +0.00163V_1

V_2 = 1.00163V_1

Initial temperature = 21.1\°C

Let T be the temperature after expanding by the formula of volume expansion

we have,

V_2 = V_1 (1+\gamma \Delta t)

Where \gamma is the volume coefficient of copper 5.1*10^{-5}/C

1.00163V_1 = V_1(1+\gamma(T-21.1\°))

1.00163 = 1+5.1*10^{-5}(T-21.1\°)

0.00163 = 0.000051T-0.0010761

T = 53.0608\°C

Therefore the temperature is 53.06°C

An inventor claims to have invented a heat engine that receives 750kJ of heat from a source at 400K and produces 250kJ of net wo
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

the claim is not valid or reasonable.

Explanation:

In order to test the claim we will find the maximum and actual efficiencies. maximum efficiency of a heat engine can be found as:

η(max) = 1 - T₁/T₂

where,

η(max) = maximum efficiency = ?

T₁ = Sink Temperature = 300 K

T₂ = Source Temperature = 400 K

Therefore,

η(max) = 1 - 300 K/400 K

η(max) = 0.25 = 25%

Now, we calculate the actual frequency of the engine:

η = W/Q

where,

W = Net Work = 250 KJ

Q = Heat Received = 750 KJ

Therefore,

η = 250 KJ/750 KJ

η = 0.333 = 33.3 %

η > η(max)

The actual efficiency of a heat engine can never be greater than its Carnot efficiency or the maximum efficiency.

<u>Therefore, the claim is not valid or reasonable.</u>
