Answer:

434.3727 °C

Explanation:

Given :

The low temperature reservoir, TL = 19.5 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:  

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15    

So,  

TL = (19.5 + 273.15) K = 292.65 K  

Given: E₁ = 23.0 %

Let the temperature of the gas is , TH₁ = x K  

The engine's efficiency of a Carnot engine is:

Carnot's\ Efficiency=\frac {T_H-T_L}{T_H}\times 100 \%

So,

23.0 \%=\frac {(x)-292.15}{x}\times 100 \%

x = 379.4156 K

Now,

Given: E₂ = 64.1 %

Let the temperature of the gas is , TH₂ = y K  

The engine's efficiency of a Carnot engine is:

Carnot's\ Efficiency=\frac {T_H-T_L}{T_H}\times 100 \%

So,

64.1 \%=\frac {(y)-292.15}{y}\times 100 \%

y = 813.7883 K

Also,

The conversion of T(K)  to T( °C)is shown below:  

T( °C) = T(K)  - 273.15  

x = 379.4156 K = 106.2656 °C

y = 813.7883 K = 540.6383 °C

<u>The temperature that must be increased = 540.6383 °C - 106.2656 °C = 434.3727 °C</u>

What comes first the color orange or the fruit orange
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Given the exoticism of the orange fruit, you could be forgiven that the color came first as it naturally occurs independent of the fruit such as in sunsets or leaves in autumn. Orange actually comes from the Old French word for the citrus fruit - 'pomme d'orenge' - according to the Collins dictionary.

Air bags are designed to deploy in 10 ms. Given that the air bags expand 20 cm as they deploy, estimate the acceleration of the
joja [24]

As it is given that the air bag deploy in time

t = 10 ms = 0.010 s

total distance moved by the front face of the bag

d = 20 cm = 0.20 m

Now we will use kinematics to find the acceleration

d = v_i*t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

0.20 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}a*0.010^2

0.20 = 5 * 10^{-5}* a

a = 4000 m/s^2

now as we know that

g = 10 m/s^2

so we have

a = 400g

so the acceleration is 400g for the front surface of balloon

A trumpet creates a sound wave that has a wave speed of 350m/s and a wavelength of 0.8 m . What is the frequency of the sound wa
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The frequency of sound wave created by trumpet is 437.5Hz

Explanation:

Given

the speed of sound wave = 350 ms^{-1}

the wavelength of sound wave = 0.8 m

the frequency of sound wave = ?

All the waves have same relationship among wavelength, frequency and speed, which is given by the equation:

v = fλ, where

v is speed of the wave

f is frequency of the wave

λ is wavelength of the wave

therefore frequency of sound wave is given by

f = v/λ

 = 350ms^{-1}/0.8m

 = 437.5s^{-1}

 = 437.5Hz (since 1 s^{-1} = 1 Hz (Hertz)

Hence the frequency of sound wave created by trumpet is 437.5Hz

The small spherical planet called "Glob" has a mass of 7.88×1018 kg and a radius of 6.32×104 m. An astronaut on the surface of G
timama [110]

The orbiting speed of the satellite orbiting around the planet Glob is 60.8m/s.

To find the answer, we need to know about the orbital velocity a satellite.

<h3>What's the expression of orbital velocity of a satellite?</h3>
  • Mathematically, orbital velocity= √(GM/r)
  • G= gravitational constant= 6.67×10^(-11) Nm²/kg², M = mass of sun , r= radius of orbit

<h3>What's the orbital velocity of the satellite in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×10⁵ m around the planet Glob of mass 7.88×10¹⁸ kg?</h3>
  • Here, M= 7.88×10¹⁸ kg, r= 1.45×10⁵ m
  • Orbital velocity of the orbiting satellite = √(6.67×10^(-11)×7.88×10¹⁸/1.45×10⁵)

= 60.8m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the speed of the satellite orbiting the planet Glob is 60.8m/s.
