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

Suppose two comets, comet A and comet B, were orbiting the sun, having the same average orbital radii. If comet A had a higher o
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

a. A

Explanation:

Kepler's First Law says that the orbits of planets are ellipses with the sun at one focus of the ellipse. Moreover, Kepler’s Second Law says that the line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times as it moves along its orbit. Finally, Kepler’s Third Law says that the ratio of the squares of the periods for two planets is equal to the ratio of the cubes of their semi-major axes.

By these laws, the comet A will have lower orbital speed.

At what height from the surface of the earth does the value of acceleration due to gravity be 2.45 m/s square where the radius o
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Explanation: RADIUS OF EARTH = 6400X1000m =

ACC DUE GRAVITY ABOVE SURFACE OF EARTH = g' =2.45 m/s^2

ACC DUE GRAVITY ON SURFACE OF EARTH =g= 9.8 m/s^2

A/C TO FORmULA

g'/g=1-2h/Re

g'/g +2h/Re = 1

2h/Re =1- g'/g

2h= (1- g'/g)Re

2h=(1-2.45 /9.8)

6400X1000

2h = (0.75)6400X1000

2h = 4800000

h= 2400000
