Answer:

Explanation:
the half life of the given circuit is given by

where [/tex]\tau = RC[/tex]

Given 
resistance in the circuit is 40 ohm and to extend the half cycle we added new resister of 48 ohm. the net resitance is 40+48 = 88 ohms
now the new half life is

Divide equation 2 by 1


putting all value we get new half life


Answer:
a) Zero
b) the rate of entropy generation in the system's universe = ds/dt = 0.2603 KW/K
Explanation:
a) In steady state
Net rate of Heat transfer = net rate of heat gain - net rate of heat lost
Hence, the rate of heat transfer = 0
b) In steady state, entropy generated
ds/dt = - [ Qgain/Th1 + Qgain/Th2 - Qlost/300 K]
Substituting the given values, we get –
ds/dt = -[5/1500 + 3/1000 – (5+3)/300]
ds/dt = - [0.0033 + 0.003 -0.2666]
ds/dt = 0.2603 KW/K
Answer:
company should focus on their goals
Answer:

Explanation:
,K=1.35
Clearance is 8%.
Heat added=15 KJ
We know that compression ratio 
r=13.5



We know that efficiency of otto cycle




W is the work out put and Q is the heat addition.

W=8.4 KJ
We know that Work =Mean effective pressure x swept volume.
Here swept volume 


Noe by putting the values
Work =Mean effective pressure x swept volume.
