Answer:
(a) Heat transfer to the environment is: 1 MJ and (b) The efficiency of the engine is: 41.5%
Explanation:
Using the formula that relate heat and work from the thermodynamic theory as: solving to Q_out we get:
this is the heat out of the cycle or engine, so it will be heat transfer to the environment. The thermal efficiency of a Carnot cycle gives us:
where T_Low is the lowest cycle temperature and T_High the highest, we need to remember that a Carnot cycle depends only on the absolute temperatures, if you remember the convertion of K=°C+273.15 so T_Low=150+273.15=423.15 K and T_High=450+273.15=723.15K and replacing the values in the equation we get:
Answer:
W = 2352 J
Explanation:
Given that:
- mass of the bucket, M = 10 kg
- velocity of pulling the bucket, v = 3
- height of the platform, h = 30 m
- time taken, t = 10 min
- rate of loss of water-mass, m =
Here, according to the given situation the bucket moves at the rate,
The mass varies with the time as,
Consider the time interval between t and t + ∆t. During this time the bucket moves a distance
∆x = 3∆t meters
So, during this interval change in work done,
∆W = m.g∆x
