Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

The efficiency of the engine is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_{c}}{T_{H}}

to increase the efficiency of the engine, the temperature of the cold reservoir should be decreased and thus the temperature of hot reservoir be increased.

So, decrease the ratio of Tc/TH.

option (C)

Answer:B,C,D

Explanation:

Thermodynamic  efficiency is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_C}{T-H}

\eta efficiency can be increased by Keeping _c constant and increasing T_H

Keeping T_H constant and decreasing T_c

by increasing \Delta T=T_H-T_c

by decreasing \frac{T_C}{T_H} ratio

10. A sound wave has a frequency of 400 Hz and a wavelength of 20 meters. What is the speed?
Dmitry [639]

Speed of wave is 8000 m/s.

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed is the measure of ratio of distance to time taken to cover that distance. In other words, speed is the measure of how fast the object can be move in a given time interval. So in this case, the wave is considered as object .  And wave consists of wavelength in place of distance and frequency as reciprocal of time interval.

So speed of wave is calculated as the product of wavelength and frequency.

As the wavelength is given as 20 m and the frequency is given as 400 Hz, then the speed will be

Speed = wavelength × Frequency = 20 × 400

Speed of wave = 8000 m/s.

So speed of wave is 8000 m/s.

A wildlife researcher is tracking a flock of geese. the geese fly 3.5 km due west, then turn toward the north by 40 ∘ and fly an
kaheart [24]

To solve this problem, we can use the cosine formula for calculating the length of the displacement:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 – 2 a b cos θ

 

where c is the displacement, a = 3.5 km, b = 4.5 km, and θ is the angle inside the triangle

 

Since the geeze turned 40° from west to north, so the angle inside the triangle must be:

θ = 180 – 40 = 140°

 

c^2 = 3.5^2 + 4.5^2 – 2 (3.5) (4.5) cos 140

c^2 = 56.63

c = 7.53 km

 

<span>So the magnitude of the displacement is 7.53 km</span>

An elevator accelerates upward at 1.2 m/s 2 . the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . what is the upward force exerted by the
Marysya12 [62]
We can find the force by using the following formula;
N = ma +  mg
Fa = ma = 76 x 1.2 = 91.2
Fg = mg = 76 x 9.8 = 744.8
N = 91.2 + 744.8 = 836
So, the force is 836 N.
