6 0

Answer:

32%

Explanation:

For a heat engine, efficiency is work out divided by heat in:

η = Wₒ / Qᵢ

Since energy is balanced, heat in is the sum of work out and heat out:

Qᵢ = Wₒ + Qₒ

Therefore:

η = Wₒ / (Wₒ + Qₒ)

Given Wₒ = 710 J and Qₒ = 1480 J:

η = 710 / (710 + 1480)

η = 0.32

The thermal efficiency is 32%.

You venture out on a cold winter morning to warm up your vehicle. You have layers of cotton/polyester blend clothes on and from
maxonik [38]

Answer:

A. There is a localization of positive charge near the door handle.

Explanation:

  • When on a cold morning a person wearing cotton/ polyester cloth walking on the carpet moves toward his car then due to friction between the feet and the carpet there are transfer of electrons from the carpet to our feet, and since our body is a good conductor of electricity the charges spread throughout on the surface of or body.
  • When the person brings his hands close to the neutral conducting door of the car it gets induced with equal intensity of opposite charge to our hands thus having a concentration of positive charges near to the hand on the car's door is developed as a result of polarization within the conductor.
