Answer:

The copper wire stretches 6.25 cm and the steel wire stretches 3.75 cm.

Explanation:

Young's modulus is defined as:

E = stress / strain

E = (F / A) / (dL / L)

E = (F L) / (A dL)

Solving for dL:

dL = (F L) / (A E)

The wires have the same force, length, and cross-sectional area.  So:

dL₁ + dL₂ = (FL/A) (1/E₁ + 1/E₂)

Given that dL₁ + dL₂ = 0.10 m, E₁ = 20×10¹⁰ N/m², and E₂ = 12×10¹⁰ N/m²:

0.10 = (FL/A) (1/(20×10¹⁰) + 1/(12×10¹⁰))

FL/A = 0.75×10¹⁰ N/m

Solving for dL₁ and dL₂:

dL₁ = (FL/A) / E₁

dL₁ = (0.75×10¹⁰ N/m) / (20×10¹⁰ N/m²)

dL₁ = 0.0375 m

dL₂ = (FL/A) / E₂

dL₂ = (0.75×10¹⁰ N/m) / (12×10¹⁰ N/m²)

dL₂ = 0.0625 m

The copper wire stretches 6.25 cm and the steel wire stretches 3.75 cm.

An inventor claims to have invented a heat engine that receives 750kJ of heat from a source at 400K and produces 250kJ of net wo
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

the claim is not valid or reasonable.

Explanation:

In order to test the claim we will find the maximum and actual efficiencies. maximum efficiency of a heat engine can be found as:

η(max) = 1 - T₁/T₂

where,

η(max) = maximum efficiency = ?

T₁ = Sink Temperature = 300 K

T₂ = Source Temperature = 400 K

Therefore,

η(max) = 1 - 300 K/400 K

η(max) = 0.25 = 25%

Now, we calculate the actual frequency of the engine:

η = W/Q

where,

W = Net Work = 250 KJ

Q = Heat Received = 750 KJ

Therefore,

η = 250 KJ/750 KJ

η = 0.333 = 33.3 %

η > η(max)

The actual efficiency of a heat engine can never be greater than its Carnot efficiency or the maximum efficiency.

<u>Therefore, the claim is not valid or reasonable.</u>

How energy and power are different ???
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy is what makes change happen and can be transferred form one object to another. ... Power is the rate at which energy is transferred. It is not energy but is often confused with energy. The watt is the most commonly used unit of measure for power.

Find the object's speeds v1, v2, and v3 at times t1=2.0s, t2=4.0s, and t3=13s.
Burka [1]
Since this is a distance/time graph, the speed at any time is the slope
of the part of the graph that's directly over that time on the x-axis.

At time  t1 = 2.0 s
That's in the middle of the first segment of the graph,
that extends from zero to 3 seconds.
Its slope is  7/3 .              v1 = 7/3 m/s .

At time  t2 = 4.0 s
That's in the middle of the horizontal part of the graph
that runs from 3 to 6 seconds.
Its slope is zero.
                                     v2 = zero .

At time  t3 = 13 s.
That's in the middle of the part of the graph that's sloping down,
between 11 and 16 seconds.
Its slope is  -3/5 .            v3 = -0.6 m/s .

3. Learn: Energy is transferred along food chains, however, the amount of available energy decreases from one
Zolol [24]

''Energy is destroyed because animals are higher levels do not need as much energy'' is not the valid reason.

<h3>What is respiration?</h3>

Respiration is the cellular process of releasing energy from food. Some of the energy released is used to produce ATP. 90 percent of energy is lost as heat energy whereas 10 percent energy is transferred to other trophic levels.

So we can conclude that ''Energy is destroyed because animals are higher levels do not need as much energy'' is not the valid reason.
