N = 1 - (QC/QH)

n = efficiency

QC = Cold Reservoir = 220 K
QH = Hot Reservoir = 680 K

n = 1 - (220 \div 680) (\div 10)\\ n = 1 - (22 \div 68) (\div 2) \\ n = 1 - (11 \div 34) \\ n = (34 - 11) \div 34 \\ n = 23 \div 34 \\ n = 0.676... \times 100\\ n = 67.6

Answer: The engine's efficiency is 67.6% .

Bright and dark fringes are seen on a screen when light from a single source reaches two narrow slits a short distance apart. Th
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the thickness of the film is t and the refractive index of the material of film is n.

When light travels through a sheet of thickness t, the optical path traveled is nt.

When the path of one of slit is covered by a sheet of thickness t, the optical path becomes

x = ( n - 1) t

As the one fringe is shift, so the optical path changed by one wavelength.

i.e., x = λ

So, λ = ( n - 1) t

t=\frac{\lambda }{n-1}

If a cart of 2 kg mass has a force of 8 newtons exerted on it, what is its acceleration?
maria [59]
This is an example of the Newton`s Second Law:
F = m * a
a = F / m
F = 8 N, m = 2 kg.
a = 8 N : 2 kg
Answer:
a = 4 m/s²

What causes earthquakes,tsunami, and volcanic eruptions to happen certain places and not others
Dafna11 [192]
These are all caused by tectonic plate movements. Some areas of the globe are more susceptible to these disasters because they are on or near a fault line where the Earth’s tectonic plates rub against one another, slip beside and under each other, or collide. The places near fault lines are more likely to see earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity.

Clara and Eli used materials they could find at home to make a simple seismograph. As Clara pulls the strip of paper through the
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The recording that Eli and Clara's Seismograph would show will be very close to that a real Seismograph would show. This is because the mechanism they have constructed is very similar to the real one.
