Answer:

Since the maximum thermal efficiency is higher than 55 percent, there can be a power cycle with these reservoir temperature with an efficiency higher than 55 percent.

Explanation:

The maximum thermal efficiency is determined from the given temperature

nth Carnot = 1- TL/TH

Where TL= 17+273= 290k

TH= 627*273= 900K.

nth Carnot = 1- 290/900 = 0.68

0.68*100 = 68 percent

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Friction force on the bullet is 58.7 N opposite to its velocity

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the bullet is 55 m/s

after travelling into the sand bag by distance d = 1.34 m it comes to rest

so final speed

v_f = 0

now we can use kinematics top find the acceleration of the bullet

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

so we have

0 - 55^2 = 2(a)(1.34)

a = -1128.7 m/s^2

now by Newton's II law we know that

F = ma

so we have

F = (0.052)(-1128.7)

F = -58.7 N
