Liquid Hydrogen is the fuel used by rockets.

Explanation:

Liquid hydrogen which can be chemically denoted as " $LH_{2}$ " is often considered as the significant fuels for rocket.

However rocket in its lower stages uses fuels such as Kerosene and oxygen where as in the higher stages such as second and third stages it uses liquid hydrogen.

Liquid hydrogen is known to easily cool the nozzle and then also other parts of the rocket before mixing with the oxidizer such as the oxygen.

Thus liquid hydrogen helps in preventing nozzle erosion and also reduces combustion chamber.
Liquid hydrogen one the other hand is very expensive as 384,071 gallons of it will cost approximately $376,389.58 .

Thus liquid hydrogen is effectively used as a fuel for rocket.

Answer:

Go to explaination for the details of the answer.

Explanation:

In order to determine the lifetime (75 years) chronic daily exposure for each individual, we have to first state the terms of our equation:

CDI = Chronic Daily Intake

C= Chemical concentration

CR= Contact Rate

EFD= Exposure Frequency and Distribution

BW= Body Weight

AT = Average Time.

Having names our variables lets create the equations that will be used to derive our answers.

Please kindly check attachment for details of the answer.

Consider two Carnot heat engines operating in series. The first engine receives heat from the reservoir at 1400 K and rejects th

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The temperature T= 648.07k

Explanation:

T1=input temperature of the first heat engine =1400k

T=output temperature of the first heat engine and input temperature of the second heat engine= unknown

T3=output temperature of the second heat engine=300k

but carnot efficiency of heat engine = $1 - \frac{Tl}{Th} \\$

where Th =temperature at which the heat enters the engine

Tl is the temperature of the environment

since both engines have the same thermal capacities <em> $n_{th}$ </em> therefore $n_{th} =n_{th1} =n_{th2}\\n_{th }=1-\frac{T1}{T}=1-\frac{T}{T3}\\ \\= 1-\frac{1400}{T}=1-\frac{T}{300}\\$

We have now that

$\frac{-1400}{T}+\frac{T}{300}=0\\$

multiplying through by T

$-1400 + \frac{T^{2} }{300}=0\\$

multiplying through by 300

- $420000+ T^{2} =0\\T^2 =420000\\\sqrt{T2}=\sqrt{420000} \\T=648.07k$

The temperature T= 648.07k
