Answer : The temperature of the hot reservoir (in Kelvins) is 1128.18 K

Explanation :

Efficiency of carnot heat engine : It is the ratio of work done by the system to the system to the amount of heat transferred to the system at the higher temperature.

Formula used for efficiency of the heat engine.

\eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}

where,

\eta = efficiency = 0.780

T_h = Temperature of hot reservoir = ?

T_c = Temperature of cold reservoir = -24.8^oC=273+(-24.8)=248.2K

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}

0.780=1-\frac{248.2K}{T_h}

T_h=1128.18K

Therefore, the temperature of the hot reservoir (in Kelvins) is 1128.18 K

una onda longitudinal tiene una frecuencia de 200 hz y una longitud de onda de 4.2m ¿cual es la rapidez de la onda?​
swat32

Answer:

v = 8.4 m/s

Explanation:

The question ays, "A longitudinal wave has a frequency of 200 Hz and a wavelength of 4.2m. What is the speed of the wave?".

Frequency of a wave, f = 200 Hz

Wavelength = 4.2 cm = 0.042 m

We need to find the speed of the wave. The formula for the speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda\\\\v=200\times 0.042\\\\=8.4\ m/s

So, the speed of the wave is equal to 8.4 m/s.

What would happen if I removed the battery from the circuit?
ira [324]

Answer:

The current would stop

Explanation:

Electric currents are interesting because they carry little to no momentum. As soon as you remove a power source, the whole current halts.
