Answer:

0.163 MW

Explanation:

To get the minimum rate of energy rehection by heat transfer to cold reservoir, it implies that the power cycle operates in reversible cycle. The efficiency of reversible cycle whose value will be same as efficiency of power cycle will be given by

Efficiency of reversible cycle

n= (Th-Tc)/Th where T represent temperature, n efficiency, subscripts h and c hot and cold respectively

Substituting 500 and 310 for hot and cold temperatures respectively then efficiency

n=(500-310)/500=0.38

Efficiency of power cycle, n= Power output/Qh

Qh= 0.1/0.38= 0.263

Net power output, W= Qh- Qc

Qc=Qh-W= 0.263-0.1=0.163 MW

Which of the following statements about glycogen metabolism is FALSE?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Glycogen is the primary energy source for muscle and liver cells.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a readily mobilized storage form of glucose. It is a very large, branched polymer of glucose residues that can be broken down to yield glucose molecules when energy is needed. Most of the glucose residues in glycogen are linked by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Branches at about every tenth residue are created by α-1,6-glycosidic bonds.

Glycogen is not as reduced as fatty acids are and consequently not as energy rich. Why do animals store any energy as glycogen? Why not convert all excess fuel into fatty acids? Glycogen is an important fuel reserve for several reasons. The controlled breakdown of glycogen and release of glucose increase the amount of glucose that is available between meals. Hence, glycogen serves as a buffer to maintain blood-glucose levels. Glycogen's role in maintaining blood-glucose levels is especially important because glucose is virtually the only fuel used by the brain, except during prolonged starvation. Moreover, the glucose from glycogen is readily mobilized and is therefore a good source of energy for sudden, strenuous activity. Unlike fatty acids, the released glucose can provide energy in the absence of oxygen and can thus supply energy for anaerobic activity.

The period of a pendulum T is assumed to depend only on the mass m, the length of the pendulum `, the acceleration due to gravit
zzz [600]

Answer:

The expression is shown in the explanation below:

Explanation:

Thinking process:

Let the time period of a simple pendulum be given by the expression:

T = \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

Let the fundamental units be mass= M, time = t, length = L

Then the equation will be in the form

T = M^{a}l^{b}g^{c}

T = KM^{a}l^{b}g^{c}

where k is the constant of proportionality.

Now putting the dimensional formula:

T = KM^{a}L^{b}  [LT^{-} ^{2}]^{c}

M^{0}L^{0}T^{1} = KM^{a}L^{b+c}

Equating the powers gives:

a = 0

b + c = 0

2c = 1, c = -1/2

b = 1/2

so;

a = 0 , b = 1/2 , c = -1/2

Therefore:

T = KM^{0}l^{\frac{1}{2} } g^{\frac{1}{2} }

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

where k = 2\pi

SashulF [63]

Answer:

the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate.

Explanation:

NB: kindly check below for the attached picture.

The term ''Euler circuit'' can simply be defined as the graph that shows the edge of K once in a finite way by starting and putting a stop to it at the same vertex.

The term "Hamiltonian Circuit" is also known as the Hamiltonian cycle which is all about a one time visit to the vertex.

Here in this question, the door is the vertex and the road is the edge.

The information needed to detemine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit is;

"the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate."

Check attachment for each type of circuit and the differences.
