Efficiency η of a Carnot engine is defined to be: 
<span>η = 1 - Tc / Th = (Th - Tc) / Th </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>Tc is the absolute temperature of the cold reservoir, and </span>
<span>Th is the absolute temperature of the hot reservoir. </span>

<span>In this case, given is η=22% and Th - Tc = 75K </span>
<span>Notice that although temperature difference is given in °C it has same numerical value in Kelvins because magnitude of the degree Celsius is exactly equal to that of the Kelvin (the difference between two scales is only in their starting points). </span>

<span>Th = (Th - Tc) / η </span>
<span>Th = 75 / 0.22 = 341 K (rounded to closest number) </span>
<span>Tc = Th - 75 = 266 K </span>

<span>Lower temperature is Tc = 266 K </span>
<span>Higher temperature is Th = 341 K</span>

Define kinetic energy and derive its relation.
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy that it possessed due to its motion. Kinetic energy can be defined as the work needed to accelerate an object of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Kinetic energy depends upon the velocity and the mass of the body.

A 100 W incandescent lightbulb emits about 5 W of visible light. (The other 95 W are emitted as infrared radiation or lost as he
frutty [35]

Answer:

n = 1.89 x 10¹⁹ photons/s

Explanation:

given,

Power of bulb = 100 W

Visible light = 5 W

wavelength of the visible light = 600 nm

number of photons emitted per second

using formula of wavelength

\lambda = \dfrac{c}{\nu}

\nu= \dfrac{c}{\lambda}

\nu= \dfrac{3 \times 10^8}{600 \times 10^{-9}}

\nu=5 \times 10^{14}\ Hz

energy of photon

U = h υ

U = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ x 4 x 10¹⁴

U = 2.65 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

number of photon

n = \dfrac{P}{U}

n = \dfrac{5}{2.65 \times 10^{-19}}

n = 1.89 x 10¹⁹ photons/s
