An electrical power plant manages to send 88% of the heat produced in the burning of fossil fuel into the water-to-steam convers
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Let the x represent the amount of heat generated from the fossil fuel.

88% of x = 0.88 x

0.88 x was used to convert water to steam.

heat carried by steam = 40% × 0.88 x = 0.352 x

efficiency of the heat -to- work conversion = work output / work input = 0.352 x / x = 0.352 × 100 = 35.2 % which is less than 40 %

What speed would a proton need to achieve in order to circle Earth 1790 km above the magnetic equator, where the Earth's mag- ne
irinina [24]

Answer:

The velocity is 31.25 m/s and direction is toward west.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance h= 1790 km = 1.790\times10^{6}\ m

Magnetic field B=4\times10^{-8}\ T

Mass of proton m=1.673\times10^{-21}\ Kg

Radius of earth R =6.38\times10^{6}\ m

Radius of orbit r=R+h

r=6.38\times10^{6}+1.790\times10^{6}

r=8170000\ m

We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of magnetic field

Bvq=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v=\dfrac{Bqr}{m}

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{4\times10^{-8}\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times8170000}{1.673\times10^{-21}}

v=31.25\ m/s

Hence, The velocity is 31.25 m/s and direction is toward west.

Find the equivalent resistance of this
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Re=160ohm

Explanation:

Step#1

Rt=R1+R2 ( because both are in series)

Rt=(100+220 ) ohm

Rt=320 ohm

Step#2

Rt and R3 are parallel so,

Re= (Rt× R3) ÷ (Rt+R3)

Re= (320×320)÷( 320+320)

Re = 102,400÷ 640

Re=160ohm
