A transmission system at a radio station uses an oscillator to convert a direct current into a high frequency alternating current.
We shall convert all of the densities to lbs/gal, so the product of
BTU/lbs and lbs/gal gives us the basis of comparison, which was "ratio of energy to volume".
grams / ml x 1 lbs/454 grams → 1 lbs/ 454 ml
1 lbs/454 ml x 3785.41 ml/gal → 3785.41 lbs/454gal
Conversion of g/ml = 8.34 lbs/gal
Looking at each fuel:
Kerosene:
18,500 x (8.34 x 0.82) = 126,517 BTU/gal
Gasoline:
20,900 x (8.34 x 0.737) = 128,463 BTU/gal
Ethanol:
11,500 x (8.34 x 0.789) = 75,673 BTU/gal
Hydrogen:
61,000 x (8.34 x 0.071) = 36,120 BTU/gal
The best fuel in terms of energy to volume ratio is Gasoline.
Gallons required:
BTU needed / BTU per gallon
= 85.2 x 10⁹ / 128,463
= 6.6 x 10⁵ gallons
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The reason why no current is produced are basically that, the wavelengths of light in the Balmer transition are reflected, not absorbed in solar panels, hence no current is produced.
The Balmer series consists of lines in the visible spectrum. It corresponds to emission of a photon of light when electrons descend from higher energy levels to the n=2 level in the hydrogen spectrum. The various wavelengths in the Balmer series can be separated by a prism since they are all in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
In solar panels, light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series is merely reflected by the panel and not absorbed. Since light is not absorbed, no current can be produced when the panel is irradiated with light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series.
Answer:
129 J/Kg°C
Explanation:
Given :
Mass of gold, m = 1.2kg
Quantity of heat applied, Q = 3096 J
Temperature, t2 = 40°C
Temperature, t1 = 20°C
Change in temperature, dt = (40-20)°C = 20°C
Using the relation :
Q = mcdt
Where, C = specific heat capacity of gold
3096 = 1.2kg * C * 20°C
3096 J = 24kg°C * C
C = 3096 J / 24 kg°C
C = 129 J/Kg°C
