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%).

Gwar [14]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

the north end to the south end.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Magnetic field lines from a bar magnet form lines that are closed. The direction of magnetic field is taken to be outward from the North pole of the magnet and in to the South pole of the magnet.
  • A magnetic field refers to  the area surrounding a magnet where a force is exerted on certain objects. These lines are spread out of the north end of the magnet.
  • The magnetic field lines resemble a bubble.

A very small sphere with positive charge 5.00uC is released from rest at a point 1.20cm from a very long line of uniform linear
JulijaS [17]
Let us situate this on the x axis, and let our uniform line of charge be positioned on the interval <span>(−L,0]</span> for some large number L. The voltage V as a function of x on the interval <span>(0,∞)</span> is given by integrating the contributions from each bit of charge. Let the charge density be λ. Thus, for an infinitesimal length element <span>d<span>x′</span></span>, we have <span>λ=<span><span>dq</span><span>d<span>x′</span></span></span></span>.<span>V(x)=<span>1/<span>4π<span>ϵ0</span></span></span><span>∫line</span><span><span>dq/</span>r</span>=<span>λ/<span>4π<span>ϵ0</span></span></span><span>∫<span>−L</span>0</span><span><span>d<span>x/</span></span><span>x−<span>x′</span></span></span>=<span>λ/<span>4π<span>ϵ0</span></span></span><span>(ln|x+L|−ln|x|)</span></span>

Given the following specific heat capacities, which material was have the largest change in temperature if 10 grams of each subs
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Comment

You could calculate it out by assuming the same starting temperature for each substance. (You have to assume that the substances do start at the same temperature anyway).

That's like shooting 12 with 2 dice. It can be done, but aiming for a more common number is a better idea.

Same with this question.

You should just develop a rule.  The rule will look like this

The greater the heat capacity the (higher or lower) the change in temperature.

The greater the heat capacity the lower the change in temperature

That's not your question. You want to know which substance will have the greatest temperature change given their heat capacities.

Answer

lead. It has the smallest heat capacity and therefore it's temperature change will be the greatest.
