A carnot engine operates between two heat reservoirs at temperatures th and tc. an inventor proposes to increase the efficiency

by running one engine between th and an intermediate temperature t and a second engine between t and tc using as input the heat expelled by the first engine.

The efficiency of the first Carnot engine is 
n1 = 1 - Th/T
The efficiency of the second Carnot engine is
n2 = 1 - T/Tc
The total efficiency of the engines put in series is
n = 1 - Th/Tc

What is kinematics..???​
swat32

Answer:

Kinematics is the study of motion, without any reference to the forces that cause the motion. It basically means studying how things are moving, not why they're moving. It includes concepts such as distance or displacement, speed or velocity, and acceleration, and it looks at how those values vary over time.

A disk of radius 25 cm spinning at a rate of 30 rpm slows to a stop over 3 seconds. What is the angular acceleration? B. How man
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:  

A. α = - 1.047 rad/s²  

B. θ = 14.1 rad  

C. θ = 2.24 rev  

Explanation:  

A.  

We can use the first equation of motion to find the acceleration:

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t  

where,  

ωf = final angular speed = 0 rad/s  

ωi = initial angular speed = (30 rpm)(2π rad/1 rev)(1 min/60 s) = 3.14 rad/s  

t = time = 3 s  

α = angular acceleration = ?  

Therefore,

0\ rad/s = 3.14\ rad/s + \alpha(3\ s)  

<u>α = - 1.047 rad/s²</u>

B.  

We can use the second equation of motion to find the angular distance:

\theta = \omega_it +\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\theta = (3.14\ rad/s)(3\ s) + \frac{1}{2}(1.04\ rad/s^2)(3)^2  

<u>θ = 14.1 rad</u>

C.  

θ = (14.1 rad)(1 rev/2π rad)  

<u>θ = 2.24 rev</u>
