A particular car engine operates between temperatures of 440°C (inside the cylinders of the engine) and 20°C (the temperature of
1 answer:
One of the concepts to be used to solve this problem is that of thermal efficiency, that is, that coefficient or dimensionless ratio calculated as the ratio of the energy produced and the energy supplied to the machine.
From the temperature the value is given as
Where,
T_L = Cold focus temperature
T_H = Hot spot temperature
Our values are given as,
T_L = 20\° C = (20+273) K = 293 K
T_H = 440\° C = (440+273) K = 713 K
Replacing we have,
Therefore the maximum possible efficiency the car can have is 58.9%

Answer:
K = 1.29eV
Explanation:
In order to calculate the kinetic energy of the proton you first take into account the uncertainty principle, which is given by:
(1)
Δx : uncertainty of position = 2.0pm = 2.0*10^-12m
Δp: uncertainty of momentum = ?
h: Planck's constant = 6.626*10^-34 J.s
You calculate the minimum possible value of Δp from the equation (1):
The minimum kinetic energy is calculated by using the following formula:
(2)
m: mass of the proton = 1.67*10^{-27}kg
in eV you have:
The kinetic energy of the proton is 1.29eV
Answer:
a 15.22 m/s
b 45.65 m
Explanation:
Using the same formula,
x = vt, where
x is now 45.65, and
t is 3 s, then
45.65 = 3v
v = 45.65/3
v = 15.22 m/s
