Answer:

the maximum possible coefficient performance is 13.7

Explanation:

inside temperature, T_{C} = 61 F = 289.26 K

outside temperature, T_{H} = 99 F = 310.37 K

coefficient of performance, COP (real) = 3.2

according to Carnot's theorem, the coefficient of performance is

COP_{max} = \frac{T_{C} }{T_{H}-x_{C}  }

where

T_{C} is cold temperature

T_{H} is hot temperature

thus,

COP_{max}  = \frac{289.26}{310.37-289.26}

             = 13.7

A car is driving at 50 kilometers per hour. how far, in meters, does it travel in 2 seconds?
AveGali [126]
<span>Sure, Just change the 2 sec. into hrs. Since 1 hour = 3600 sec. then you can divide 2/3600 = 1/1800 hrs. Distance in kilometers = (Speed in km/hr * time in hrs) = 50*(1/1800)*1000 in meters = 27.77 meters</span>

A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two square plates, size L×L, separated by distance d. The plates are given charge ±
gladu [14]

Answer:

E(final)/E(initial)=2

Explanation:

Applying the law of gauss to two parallel plates with  charge density equal σ:

E=\sigma/\epsilon_{o}=Q/(L^{2}*\epsilon_{o})\\

So, if the charge is doubled the Electric field is doubled too

E(final)/E(initial)=2

An electron is confined to a one dimensional region, bounded by an infinite potential. If the energy of the electron in its firs
OLga [1]

Answer:

The energy in its ground state is 10 meV.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The energy of the electron in its first excited state is 40 meV.

Energy of the electron in any state is given by :

E=\dfrac{n^2\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}

For ground state, n = 1

E_1=\dfrac{\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}.............(1)

For first excited state, n = 2

40=\dfrac{2^2\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}.............(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2), we get :

\dfrac{E_1}{40}=\dfrac{1}{4}

E_1=10\ meV

So, the energy in its ground state is 10 meV. Hence, this is the required solution.
