Answer:

\eta_{th} = 26.8\,\%

Explanation:

The maximum theoretical efficiency for a heat engine is given by the Carnot's Cycle. The temperatures of the hot reservoir and the cold reservoir at 1.0 atmosphere are 373.15 K and 273.15 K, respectively. Then:

\eta_{th} = \left(1 - \frac{T_{L}}{T_{H}}  \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta_{th} = \left(1-\frac{273.15\,K}{373.15\,K}  \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta_{th} = 26.8\,\%

Answer:

The correct answer is - 4.

Explanation:

As we known and also given that the total of the superscripts that is mass numbers, A in the reactants and products must be the same.The mass of products A can understand and calculated by this -

The sum of the product mass number of products = mass of reactant

237Np93 →233 Pa91 +AZX is the equation,

Solution:

Mass of reactants = 237

Mass of products are - Pa =233 and A = ?

233 + A = 237

A = 237 - 233

A = 4

So the equation will be:

237Np93 →233 Pa91 +4He2 (atomic number Z = 2 ∵ difference in the atomic number of reactant and products)
