Steam enters a turbine at 400K and exhausts at 360K. Calculate the maximum efficiency. =%

Physics

The maximum efficiency is 10%

Explanation:

The maximum efficiency of a machine is given by:

\eta=1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}

where

T_H is the temperature of the hot reservoir

T_C is the temperature of the cold reservoir

For the machine in this problem, we have:

T_H=400K is the temperature of the hot reservoir

T_C=360K is the temperature of the cold reservoir

substituting, we find the max efficiency:

\eta=1-\frac{360}{400}=0.1

So, the efficiency is 0.10 (10%).

(URGENT) A ball rolls off a ledge. Its velocity is 7.70m/s in a horizontal direction. It falls on the floor 1.60m below the ledg
elena-s [515]

Answer:

the horizontal distance is 4.355 meters

Explanation:

The computation of the horizontal distance while travelling in the air is shown below:

Data provided in the question is as follows

Velocity = u = 7.70 m/s

H = 1.60 m

R = horizontal direction

Based on the above information

As we know that

R = u × time

where,

Time = \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} }

So,

= 7.70\times \sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.60}{10} }

= 4.355 meters

hence, the horizontal distance is 4.355 meters

Jason places his economics book (3 kg) on a level table. He then puts his calculus book (5 kg) on top of the economics book, the
lilavasa [31]

Nothing is accelerating ... it's not even moving. Everything is just sitting there. 
That right there tells you that the forces are balanced wherever two things meet,
otherwise something would be accelerating.

At each level where two things meet, there are 2 forces:

-- The gravitational force ... the weight of everything above that place,
and
-- The upward force, exerted by everything below that place. 

Here is the stack:
_____________
| Physics ... 2kg |      weight = M G = 2 x 9.8 = 19.6 newtons
---------------------
|Calculus ..5 kg |      weight = M G = 5 x 9.8 = 49 newtons
---------------------
|Econ . . . .3 Kg |      weight = M G = 3 x 9.8 = 29.4 newtons
==================
-------- (Table) ----------
/                                  \

a).  Surface where the table meets the Economics book.
Weight of everything above = (29.4 + 49 + 19.6) = 98 newtons
Upward force exerted on the Econ book by the table = 98 newtons.

b). Surface where the Econ book meets the Calculus book.
Weight of everything above = (49 + 19.6) = 68.6 newtons.
Upward force exerted on the Calc book by the Econ book = 68.6 newtons.

c).  Surface where the Calculus book meets the Physics book.
Weight of everything above = 19.6 newtons.
Force exerted on the Physics book by the Calc book = 19.6 newtons.
