Answer:

T_C=256.2^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given that,

Efficiency of heat engine, \eta=40\%=0.4

Temperature of hot source, T_H=427^{\circ}C

We need to find the temperature of cold sink i.e. T_C. The efficiency of heat engine is given by :

\eta=1-\dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

T_C=(1-\eta)T_H

T_C=(1-0.4)\times 427

T_C=256.2^{\circ}C

So, the temperature of the cold sink is 256.2°C. Hence, this is the required solution.

In order to create an electromagnet, you would ?
Yakvenalex [24]
In order to create an electromagnet, you would wrap an insulated wire around a metal with ferromagnetic properties and apply electric current. Magnetic fields are made when entirely the electrons are turning in the same direction either as a natural phenomenon, in an artificially created magnet or when they are persuaded to do so by an electromagnetic field.

The eyes of many older people have lost the ability to accommodate, and so an older person’s near point may be more than 25 cm f
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Smaller refractive power

Explanation:

The refractive power of an eye is the extent to which it can converge or diverge the light rays.

Near point is the the closest point for an eye such that when an object is placed at that point the image it forms is sharp and clearly visible to the eye.

A the person ages, the ciliary muscles of the eyes weakens and as a result the lens contracts and the formation of the image takes place behind the retina instead of forming at the retina.

Thus the near point also increases and the refractive power becomes smaller.

The frequency of violet light is 7.5x10 to the 14th power hertz. What is the wavelength?
Verizon [17]
Wavelength times frequency = speed of light
7.5E14 x wavelength = 300,000 m/s

Wavelength in meters = 300,000 divided by 7.5E14
