How efficient are electric engines

Chemistry
1 answer:
raketka [301]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Electric engines have efficiencies of roughly 90% whilst combustion engines about 10% to 30%. This is because combustion engines emit much more heat, which is always energy that is not used as work, and thus increases inefficiency.

You have a gas stored in a rigid container (fixed volume). Explain the relationship between a decrease in temperature, collision
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

A decrease in temperature would decrease kinetic energy, therefore decreasing collisions possible.

Explanation:

A gas at a fixed volume is going to have collisions automatically. If you decrease the temperature (same thing as decreasing kinetic energy) you are cooling down the molecules in the container which gives them less energy and "relaxes" them. This decrease in energy causes them to move around much slower and causing less collisions, at a much slower rate. In a perfect world, these collisions do not slow down the molecule but we know that they do, just a very very small unmeasurable amount.

An ideal gas contained in a piston-cylinder assembly is compressed isothermally in an internally reversible process.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

a) \Delta S

b) entropy of the sistem equal to a), entropy of the universe grater than a).

Explanation:

a) The change of entropy for a reversible process:

\delta S=\frac{\delta Q}{T}

\Delta S=\frac{Q}{T}

The energy balance:

\delta U=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W

If the process is isothermical the U doesn't change:

0=[tex]\delta Q- \delta W

\delta Q= \delta W

Q= W

The work:

W=\int_{V1}^{V2}P*dV

If it is an ideal gas:

P=\frac{n*R*T}{V}

W=\int_{V1}^{V2}\frac{n*R*T}{V}*dV

Solving:

W=n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)

Replacing:

\Delta S=\frac{n*R*T*ln(V2/V1)}{T}

\Delta S=n*R*ln(V2/V1)}

Given that it's a compression: V2<V1 and ln(V2/V1)<0. So:

\Delta S

b) The entropy change of the sistem will be equal to the calculated in a), but the change of entropy of the universe will be 0 in a) (reversible process) and in b) has to be positive given that it is an irreversible process.
