Answer:

58.5 %

Explanation:

temperature of hot source, T1 = 325 K

temperature of cold source, T2 = 135 K

The efficiency of a heat engine is defined as the ratio of work done to the input energy.

the formula to find the efficiency of heat engine is given by

η = 1 - T2 / T1

η = 1 - 135 / 325

η = 0.585

η = 58.5 %

The young tree was bent and has been brought into a vertical position by the three guy cables. If tension at AB = 0, AC = 10 lb,
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The young tree, originally bent, has been brought into the vertical position by adjusting the three guy-wire tensions to AB = 7 lb, AC = 8 lb, and AD = 10 lb. Determine the force and moment reactions at the trunk base point O. Neglect the weight of the tree.

C and D are 3.1' from the y axis B and C are 5.4' away from the x axis and A has a height of 5.2'

Describe how you expect the waveform and the sound you hear changes when you hit the tuning fork harder.
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

In a tuning fork, two basic qualities of sound are considered, they are

1) The pitch of the waveform: This pitch depends on the frequency of the wave generated by hitting the tuning fork.

2) The loudness of the waveform: This loudness depends on the intensity of the wave generated by hitting the tuning fork.

Hitting the tuning fork harder will make it vibrate faster, increasing the number of vibrations per second. The number of vibration per second is proportional to the frequency, so hitting the tuning fork harder increase the frequency. From the explanation on the frequency above, we can say that by increasing the frequency the pitch of the tuning fork also increases.

Also, hitting the tuning fork harder also increases the intensity of the wave generated, since the fork now vibrates faster. This increases the loudness of the tuning fork.
