Answer:

The minimum work per unit heat transfer will be 0.15.

Explanation:

We know the for a heat pump the coefficient of performance (C_{HP}) is given by

C_{HP} = \dfrac{Q_{H}}{W_{in}}

where, Q_{H} is the magnitude of heat transfer between cyclic device and    high-temperature medium at temperature T_{H} and W_{in} is the required input and is given by W_{in} = Q_{H} - Q_{L}, Q_{L} being magnitude of heat transfer between cyclic device and low-temperature T_{L}. Therefore, from above equation we can write,

&& \dfrac{Q_{H}}{W_{in}} = \dfrac{Q_{H}}{Q_{H} - Q_{L}} = \dfrac{1}{1 - \dfrac{Q_{L}}{Q_{H}}} = \dfrac{1}{1 - \dfrac{T_{L}}{T_{H}}}

Given, T_{L} = 460 K and T_{H} = 540 K. So,  the minimum work per unit heat transfer is given by

\dfrac{W_{in}}{Q_{H}} = \dfrac{T_{H} - T_{L}}{T_{H}} = \dfrac{540 - 460}{540} = 0.15

because

Explanation:

because we need eye to see if you don't have eyes how you regnise some one

if you have ears how can you know who's voice is who's

if don't have fingers how can you know what your are holding this is why they are called physical sensors

A soccer player pumps air into a soccer ball until no more air can be pushed inside. Describe the air inside the soccer ball com
inessss [21]

Answer:

the filling stops when the pressure of the pump equals the pressure of the interior air plus the pressure of the walls.

Explanation:

This exercise asks to describe the inflation situation of a spherical fultball.

Initially the balloon is deflated, therefore the internal pressure is equal to the pressure of the air outside, atmospheric pressure, when it begins to inflate the balloon with a pump this creates a pressure in the inlet valve and as it is greater than the pressure inside, the air enters it, this is repeated in each filling cycle, manual pump.

When the ball is full we have two forces, the one created by the external walls and the one aired by the pressure of the pump, these forces are directed towards the inside, but the air molecules exert a pressure towards the outside, which translates into a force. When these two forces are equal, the pump is no longer able to continue introducing air into the balloon.

Consequently the filling stops when the pressure of the pump equals the pressure of the interior air plus the pressure of the walls.
