The laws of thermodynamics state that, in a heat engine, _____.

Physics

Daniel [21]3 years ago

Answer: The correct option is "all the heat energy from a source cannot be converted to mechanical energy"

Explanation:

Heat engine is a system which converts heat energy to the mechanical energy. During this process, a lot of heat energy is lost to surrounding.

Heat engine is a device that uses heat to do work. It is impossible to extract an amount of heat from the reservoir at high temperature and use this heat to do some work.

Some heat is rejected to the reservoir at low temperature.

Therefore, the laws of thermodynamics state that, in a heat engine, all the heat energy from a source cannot be converted to mechanical energy.

A 0.200-m uniform bar has a mass of 0.795 kg and is released from rest in the vertical position, as the drawing indicates. The s
aleksklad [387]

Explanation:

Since, the rod is present in vertical position and the spring is unrestrained.

So, initial potential energy stored in the spring is U_{s} = 0

And, initial potential gravitational potential energy of the rod is U_{g} = \frac{mgL}{2}.

It is given that,

       mass of the bar = 0.795 kg

            g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

           L = length of the rod = 0.2 m

Initial total energy T = \frac{mgL}{2}

Now, when the rod is in horizontal position then final total energy will be as follows.

            T = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + I \omega^{2}

where,    I = moment of inertia of the rod about the end = \frac{mL^{2}}{3}

Also,    \omega = \frac{\nu}{L}

where,    \nu = speed of the tip of the rod

              x = spring extension

The initial unstrained length is x_{o} = 0.1 m

Therefore, final length will be calculated as follows.

              x' = \sqrt{(0.2)^{2} + (0.1)^{2}} m

Then,  x = x' - x_{o}

          x = \sqrt{(0.2)^{2} + (0.1)^{2}} m - 0.1 m

             = 0.1236 m

       k = 25 N/m

So, according to the law of conservation of energy

       \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1 \times mL^{2}}{2 \times 3}(\frac{\nu}{L})^{2}

      \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{6}mv^{2}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

   \frac{mgL}{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{6}mv^{2}

  \frac{0.795 kg \times 9.8 \times 0.2 m}{2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 27 N/m \times (0.1236)^{2} + \frac{1}{6} \times 0.795 \times v^{2}

          v = 2.079 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that tangential speed with which end A strikes the horizontal surface is 2.079 m/s.

What kind of electromagnetic radiation could be used to see molecules
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

X ray

Explanation:

To see an object the light used must have the same or smaller wavelength than the object. The size of an atom is about 10^{10} m, smaller than the wavelength, therefore we'll need radiation with a shorter wavelength <em>since X-ray wavelengths are about the same size as atoms this characteristic makes it ideal to use.</em>

I hope you find this information useful nd interesting! Good luck!

morpeh [17]

During the evacuation of a system containing large amounts of moisture, it may be necessary to prevent freezing by increasing pressure using a gas such as Nitrogen

The scientific name for nitrogen is N, and it is a flavorless and colorless element. The ground beneath our feet contains nitrogen, as does the water we drink and the air we breathe. In fact, nitrogen makes up the majority of the atmosphere on Earth, making up around 78% of the atmosphere.

Nitrogen, which is necessary for plant growth, can be "fixed" by lightning or given to soils through fertilizers. a flavorless gas with no color. The chemical industry depends on nitrogen. It is used to create explosives, nylon, nitric acid, fertilizers, and colors. Nitrogen is always represented as N2 when it is in a gaseous state. It belongs to the group of seven diatomic molecules.
