Hunter-Best [27]2 years ago

Answer:

The value is   \eta  =  0.2145  or  21.45%

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The first reservoir is at steam point  T_s =  100^o C =  100 + 273 = 373 \ K  

    The  second reservoir is at room temperature T_r  =  20^o C = 293 \ K

Generally the  maximum theoretical efficiency of a Carnot engine  is mathematically evaluated as

     \eta  =  1- \frac{T_r}{T_s}

=>    1 - \frac{ 293}{373}

=>    \eta  =  0.2145

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Kinetic Energy.

Explanation:

The movement of a roller coaster is accomplished by the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy. The roller coaster cars gain potential energy as they are pulled to the top of the first hill. As the cars descend the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Two charges, Q1 and Q2, are separated by 6·cm. The repulsive force between them is 25·N. In each case below, find the force betw
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

a) 5 N b) 225 N c) 5 N

Explanation:

a) Per Coulomb's Law the repulsive force between 2 equal sign charges, is directly proportional to the product of the charges, and inversely proportional to the square of  the distance between them, acting along  the  line that joins the charges, as follows:

F₁₂ = K Q₁ Q₂ / r₁₂²

So, if we make Q1 = Q1/5, the net effect will be to reduce the force in the same factor, i.e. F₁₂ = 25 N / 5 = 5 N

b) If we reduce the distance, from r, to r/3, as the  factor is squared, the net effect will be to increase the force in a factor equal to 3² = 9.

So, we will have F₁₂ = 9. 25 N = 225 N

c) If we make Q2 = 5Q2, the force would be increased 5 times, but if at the same , we increase the distance 5 times, as the factor is squared, the net factor will be 5/25 = 1/5, so we will have:

F₁₂ = 25 N .1/5 = 5 N

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 30 POINTS!
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Gallium

Explanation:

Gallium is one such element used as a do/pant in a p-type semiconductor.

A do/pant is an impurity added to a semi-conductor used to alter its properties. Semi-conductors have a wide range of applications. They will conduct heat and electricity only under certain conditions. This property is highly desirable and find a wide application in electronics.

For p-type conductors, they are best do/ped with elements with 3 valence electrons. These are group 3 elements. From the choices, only gallium belongs to this group.

Other elements given are good do/pants for n-type semiconductors. They have 5 valence electrons.

How do magnetic forces repel or attract?
Lerok [7]

“Magnets are surrounded by an invisible magnetic field that is made by the movement of electrons, the subatomic particles that circle the nucleus of an atom”



“Every magnet has both a north and a south pole. When you place the north pole of one magnet near the south pole of another magnet, they are attracted to one another. When you place like poles of two magnets near each other (north to north or south to south), they will repel each other.”
