Answer:

The source temperature is 1248 R.

Explanation:

Second law efficiency of the engine is the ratio of actual efficiency to the maximum possible efficiency that is reversible efficiency.

Given:  

Temperature of the heat sink is 520 R.

Second law efficiency is 60%.

Actual thermal efficiency is 35%.

Calculation:  

Step1

Reversible efficiency is calculated as follows:

\eta_{II}=\frac{\eta_{a}}{\eta_{rev}}

0.6=\frac{0.35}{\eta_{rev}}

\eta_{rev}=0.5834

Step2

Source temperature is calculated as follows:

\eta_{rev}=1-\frac{T_{L}}{T}

\eta_{rev}=1-\frac{520}{T}

0.5834=1-\frac{520}{T}

T = 1248 R.

The heat engine is shown below:

Thus, the source temperature is 1248 R.

Why is logging done during drilling?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Logging while drilling (LWD) is a technique of conveying well logging tools into the well borehole downhole as part of the bottom hole assembly (BHA). ... In these situations, the LWD measurement ensures that some measurement of the subsurface is captured in the event that wireline operations are not possible

Sveta_85 [38]

La altura es de 169.4 metros.

Dado que las dos torres que sostienen un puente colgante tienen una separación de 240m y una altura de 110m a partir de la carretera, si el cable tensor más corto mide 10m, para determinar cuál es altura de un cable que se encuentra a 100m de distancia del centro se debe realizar los siguientes cálculos, aplicando la ecuación parabólica:  

  • (240)² = 4P x (110-10)
  • 57600 = 4P x 100
  • 57600 = 400P
  • 57600/400 = P
  • 144 = P
  • 200 x 200 = 4 x 144 x (Altura - 100)
  • 40000 = 576Altura - 57600
  • 40000 + 57600 / 576 = Altura
  • 169.4 metros = Altura

Por lo tanto, la altura es de 169.4 metros.

I have a molten Ni-Cu alloy with 60 wt%Ni. (ii) I cool it down to a temperature where I have both solid and liquid phases. At th
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The percentage of the remaining alloy would become solid is 20%

Explanation:

Melting point of Cu = 1085°C

Melting point of Ni = 1455°C

At 1200°C, there is a 30% liquid and 70% solid, the weight percentage of Ni in alloy is the same that percentage of solid, then, that weight percentage is 70%.

The Ni-Cu alloy with 60% Ni and 40% Cu, and if we have the temperature of alloy > temperature of Ni > temperature of Cu, we have the follow:

60% Ni (liquid) and 40% Cu (liquid) at temperature of alloy

At solid phase with a temperature of alloy and 50% solid Cu and 50% liquid Ni, we have the follow:

40% Cu + 10% Ni in liquid phase and 50% of Ni is in solid phase.

The percentage of remaining alloy in solid is equal to

Solid = (10/50) * 100 = 20%
