Answer:

15.65 °C

Explanation:

cold temperature (Tc) = -15.5 degree C = 273.15 - 15.5 = 257.65 kelvin

minimum coefficient of performance (η) = 8.25

find the maximum hot reservoir temperature of such a generator (Th)

η = \frac{Tc}{Th-Tc}

Th = Tc x (\frac{1}{η} + 1)

Th = 257.65 x (\frac{1}{8.25} + 1)

Th = 288.8 K

Th = 288.8 - 273.15 = 15.65 °C

1. A baseball is thrown vertically at 16.7 m/s. What is the maimum height of the baseball?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

14.2 m

Explanation:

Using conservation of energy:

PE at top = KE at bottom

mgh = ½ mv²

h = v² / (2g)

h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 14.2 m

Using kinematics:

Given:

v₀ = 16.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 14.2 m
