Answer:

496.7 K

Explanation:

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is given by the equation:

\eta = 1 - \frac{T_H}{T_L}

where:

T_H is the temperature of the hot reservoir

T_C is the temperature of the cold reservoir

For the engine in the problem, we know that

\eta = 0.400 is the efficiency

T_C = 298.0 K is the temperature of the cold reservoir

Solving for T_H, we find:

\frac{T_C}{T_H}=1-\eta\\T_H = \frac{T_C}{1-\eta} =\frac{298.0}{1-0.400}=496.7 K

Dominik [7]

Answer:

14.8m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed  = 17m/s

Unknown:

Maximum height  = ?

Solution:

At the maximum height, the final speed will be 0m/s;

 We use of the kinematics equation to solve this problem.

     V²   = U²   - 2gH

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

         0²   = 17²  -  (2  x 9.8 x h )

          0 = 289  - (9.6h)

         -289  = -19.6h

            h  = 14.8m

How does temperature affect chemical reaction​
Elis [28]
When its temperature increases, the reactants have more kinetic energy so the frequency of effective collision increases, resulting in a faster rate of chemical reaction.

Is it possible for two different atoms of carbon to have different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei? Explain.
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Yes , it is possible  for two different atoms of carbon to have different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei .

Explanation:

Isotopes -

Atoms of the element with same number of the electrons and protons , but differ in the number of neutrons , are called as the isotopes .

The isotopes of the element have the same number of protons and electrons , hence have the same chemical and physical properties .

Many isotopes occurs naturally .

In case of Carbon ,  

Carbon too have isotopes ,  

i.e.  

Carbon - 13 and Carbon - 14

carbon - 13 , have seven neutrons  

Carbon - 14 , have eight neutrons .
