What is the formula for calculating the efficiency of a heat engine?

Physics
1 answer:
Olegator [25]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

The efficiency of a heat engine is defined as the ratio of the work output to the heat input into the system.

  •   It is highly impossible to get an engine that is 100% efficient.
  • A heat engine that is 100% efficient suggests that all the heat input into the system is used to do work completely.
  • There is no heat loss.

      Efficiency = \frac{work output}{heat input} x 100

Efficiency has no unit

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

C) one-half as great

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration of gravity in that planet, using the following kinematic equation:

\Delta x=v_0t+\frac{gt^2}{2}

In this case, the sphere starts from rest, so v_0=0. Replacing the given values and solving for g':

g'=\frac{2\Delta x}{t^2}\\g'=\frac{2(22m)}{(3s)^2}\\g'=4.89\frac{m}{s^2}

The acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface is g=9.8\frac{m}{s^2}. So, the acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet is approximately one-half of the acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface.
