The distance between two peaks ( or two troughs ) is called
wavelength

The deepest part of a trough or the highest part of a peak is called the
amplitude

The frequency is the number of wavelengths that pass by in
1 second

Hope this helps :)

A heat engine accepts 200,000 Btu of heat from a source at 1500 R and rejects 100,000 Btu of heat to a sink at 600 R. Calculate

diamong [38]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy through the heat transferred and the work done, as well as through the calculation of entropy due to heat and temperatra.

By definition we know that the change in entropy is given by

$\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T}$

Where,

Q = Heat transfer

T = Temperature

On the other hand we know that by conserving energy the work done in a system is equal to the change in heat transferred, that is

$W = Q_{source}-Q_{sink}$

According to the data given we have to,

$Q_{source} = 200000Btu$

$T_{source} = 1500R$

$Q_{sink} = 100000Btu$

$T_{sink} = 600R$

PART A) The total change in entropy, would be given by the changes that exist in the source and sink, that is

$\Delta S_{sink} = \frac{Q_{sink}}{T_{sink}}$

$\Delta S_{sink} = \frac{100000}{600}$

$\Delta S_{sink} = 166.67Btu/R$

On the other hand,

$\Delta S_{source} = \frac{Q_{source}}{T_{source}}$

$\Delta S_{source} = \frac{-200000}{1500}$

$\Delta S_{source} = -133.33Btu/R$

The total change of entropy would be,

$S = \Delta S_{source}+\Delta S_{sink}$

$S = -133.33+166.67$

$S = 33.34Btu/R$

Since $S\neq 0$ the heat engine is not reversible.

PART B)

Work done by heat engine is given by

$W=Q_{source}-Q_{sink}$

$W = 200000-100000$

$W = 100000 Btu$

Therefore the work in the system is 100000Btu

A certain quantity of steam has a temperature of 100.0 oC. To convert this steam into ice at 0.0 oC, energy in the form of heat

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

2452.79432 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of ice

$L_s$ = Latent heat of steam

$s_w$ = Specific heat of water

$L_i$ = Latent heat of ice

v = Velocity of ice

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

Amount of heat required for steam

$Q_1=mL_s\\\Rightarrow Q_1=m(2.256\times 10^6)$

Heat released from water at 100 °C

$Q_2=ms_w\Delta T\\\Rightarrow Q_2=m4186\times (100-0)\\\Rightarrow Q_2=m0.4186\times 10^6$

Heat released from water at 0 °C

$Q_3=mL_i\\\Rightarrow Q_3=m(333.5\times 10^3)\\\Rightarrow Q_3=m(0.3335\times 10^6)$

Total heat released is

$Q=Q_1+Q_2+Q_3\\\Rightarrow Q=m(2.256\times 10^6)+m0.4186\times 10^6+m(0.3335\times 10^6)\\\Rightarrow Q=3008100m$

The kinetic energy of the bullet will balance the heat

$K=Q\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^2=3008100m\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 3008100}\\\Rightarrow v=2452.79432\ m/s$

The velocity of the ice would be 2452.79432 m/s

Which evidence supports the big band theory select 3 options

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are different theories and evidence about the big bang, in this case, we're going to see three evidence.

The galaxies are moving from us, this means space is expanded, this in consequence Big Bang's explosion.

The cosmic microwave background radiation is related to the early warmth of the universe.

The observed abundance of hydrogen, helium, deuterium, lithium, these are checked from the spectra of the oldest stars.
