An engine manufacturer makes the claim that the engine they have developed will, on each cycle, take 100 j of heat out of boilin

g water at 100°c, do mechanical work of 80 j, and exhaust 20 j of heat at 10°c. what, if anything, is wrong with this claim? the efficiency of this engine is greater than the ideal carnot cycle efficiency.

hot reservoir temp 100

cold res temp= 10

eff = (1- cold/hot)x100%

by temperatures eff = (1-10/100)x100 ... by heat transfers eff = (1-20/100)x100

the claims seem to disagree

eff = 90% .... very high. 80%

a carnot may be about 70% If it is reversible and is between two reservoirs

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

1.08x10⁻⁷

Explanation:

F=(GM₁M₂)/r²

=((6.67x10⁻¹¹)(70)(52))/(1.5²)

=2.42788x10⁻⁷/2.25

=1.07905778x10⁻⁷

≈1.08x10⁻⁷

An injured monkey sits perched on a tree branch 3.0 m above the ground, while a wildlife veterinarian is kneeling down in the bu
Irina18 [472]

here in the given situation if monkey starts free fall at the same instant when veterinarian shoots towards it then we know that vertical component of motion of monkey and the dart will be same as under gravity

so here the dart will always hit the monkey because they both moves under same acceleration

so here for the angle we can use

tan\theta = \frac{H}{L}

now we have

H = 3 m

L = 87.5 m

now we will have

tan\theta = \frac{3}{87.5}

tan\theta = 0.034

\theta = 1.96 degree

so angle will be 1.96 degree above the ground

The closure temperature represents the point when ________. A. a magma cools to the point where minerals begin to crystallize B.
melomori [17]

The closure temperature represents the point when isotopes are no longer free to move out of a crystal lattice.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The closure temperature can also be termed as blocking temperature. It is mostly used in radiometric dating. As the temperature decreases, below a certain point the isotopes may get freeze in their lattice positions. And there may be slowing of diffusion.

At the closure temperature, that rate of diffusion will be zero as the isotopes will be no longer free to move out of crystal lattice. So, this is termed as closure or blocking temperature. As the isotopes loose their ability to move, their concentration will remain fixed in their position leading to measurement of radiation dating.
