Answer:

It's impossible for an ideal heat engine to have non-zero power.

Explanation:

Option A is incomplete and so it's possible.

Option B is possible

Option D is related to the first lae and has nothing to do with the second law.

Hence, the correct option is C.

The ideal engine follows a reversible cycle albeit an infinitely slow one. If the work is being done at this infinitely slow rate, the power of such an engine is zero.

We can also stat the second law of thermodynamics in this manner;

It is impossible to construct a cyclical heat engine whose sole effect is the continuous transfer of heat energy from a colder object to a hotter one.

This statement is known as second form or Clausius statement of the second law.

Thus, it is possible to construct a machine in which a heat flow from a colder to a hotter object is accompanied by another process, such as work input.

220V is applied to two different conductors made of the same material. One conductor is twice as long and twice as thick as the
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

For calculating resistance of a conductor , the formula is

R = ρ l / A , ρ is specific resistance , l is length and A is cross sectional area of wire.

For first wire length is l₁ , area is A₁ resistance is R₁, for second resistance is R₂ , length is l₂ and area is A₂

Given , l₁ = 2l₂ , A₁ = 4A₂ , area is proportional to square of thickness.

R₁ / R₂ = I₁A₂ / I₂A₁

= 2l₂ x A₁ / 4 I₂A₁

= 1 / 2

2R₁ = R₂

Power = V² / R

Ratio of power = (V² / R₁) x (R₂ / V²)

= R₂ / R₁

= 2 .

When hydrogen is burned in the presence of oxygen it will form water as per the equation: 2h2
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

B. In the first case, a combination reaction takes place and in the second case, a decomposition reaction takes place.

Explanation:

When hydrogen burns in oxygen, water is formed and when water is electrolysed then hydrogen and oxygen are produced. What type of a reaction takes place?

(i) In the first case,

(ii) In the second case?

A. In both the cases, i.e. (i) and (ii), a combination reaction takes place.

B. In the first case, a combination reaction takes place and in the second case, a decomposition reaction takes place.

C. In the first case, a combination reaction takes place and in the second case, a displacement reaction takes place.

D. In the first case, a displacement reaction takes place and in the second case, a decomposition reaction takes place.

Answer :

Hint: When hydrogen burns in air, H2H2 reacts with O2O2 to form water molecules. Here two reactants combine to form a single product. And, when water is electrolysed into hydrogen and oxygen, here a single compound decomposes into more than one product.

Complete step by step answer:

In the First case:

When hydrogen burns in oxygen, water is formed.

Hydrogen + Oxygen = Water

2H2+O2→2H2O2H2+O2→2H2O

When two reactants elements combine to form a single component, then this reaction is called the combination reaction. So, in this case, two reactants i.e. Hydrogen and oxygen combine to form a single product i.e. water molecules and heat is also released.

In the Second case:

When water is electrolysed then hydrogen and oxygen are produced.

2H2O→2H2+O22H2O→2H2+O2

When a single reactant is decomposed or broken down into two or more products, it is known as decomposition reaction. Here, a single reactant i.e. water, breaks or decomposes up to form two or more simple products i.e. hydrogen and oxygen. This decomposition reaction takes place by the action of electricity. So, we can see that in the first case, a combination reaction takes place and in the second case, a decomposition reaction takes place.

Therefore, the correct answer is option (B).

Note: Hydrogen is combustible and it burns with a popping sound in oxygen with an almost colourless flame to form water molecules and release heat. This reaction is highly exothermic. Hydrogen must be handled very carefully as the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen can be explosive when two are present in a particular ratio.

A top fuel dragster with a mass of 500.0 kg starts from rest and completes a quarter mile (402 m) race in a time of 5.0 s. The d
blsea [12.9K]

The average power needed to produce this final speed is 1069.1 hp.

Mass of the dragster,  m = 500.0 kg,

Displacement travelled by the dragster,  s = 402 m,

Time taken in this travel,  t = 5.0 s,

Final velocity of the dragster,  v = 130 m/s.

Let the initial velocity of the dragster be u and acceleration be a.

Using kinematical equation,  s = ut + (1/2)at^2.

402  =  u*5  + (1/2)*a*5^2

10*u + 25*a  = 804.      ...........(1)

Using kinematical equation, v = u +at.

130 = u + 5*a

5*u + 25*a = 650.       .............(2)

Solving (1)and (2), we get,

u =  30.8 m/s.

According to work-energy theorem,

Work done = change in kinetic energy

W  = (1/2)*m*(v^2 - u^2)

W = (1/2)*500*(130^2 - 30.8^2)

W  =  3987840. J

Therefore power rating of the dragster is given by,

P  ⇒  W/t. =  3987840/5 = 797568 watt.

P  ⇒ 797568/746 =  1069.1 hp.
