Answer

given,

high temperature reservoir (T_c)= 464 K

efficiency  of reservoir (ε)= 25 %

temperature to decrease = ?

increase in efficiency = 42 %

now, using equation

 \epsilon = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

 0.25 = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{464}

 T_C= (1 - 0.25) \times 464

 T_C= 0.75 \times 464

      T_C = 348 K

now,

if the efficiency is equal to 42$ = 0.42

 T_C= (1 - 0.42) \times 464

 T_C= 0.58 \times 464

 T_C= 269.12\ K

An object has a mass of 30 grams and measures 3cmx2cmx1cm. What is the density of the object?
dimulka [17.4K]
The density of the object is the ratio of its mass and volume. From the given dimensions above, we determine the volume through the equation,

      V = L x W x H

Substituting,

    V = (3 cm)(2 cm)(1 cm) = 6 cm³

From the idea presented above,
    d = m/V

Substituting the known values,

   d = (30 g)/ (6 cm³) = 5 g/cm³

ANSWER: 5 g/cm³
