Answer:
See the answers below.
Explanation:
We can solve both problems using Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
∑F =m*a
where:
F = force [N] (units of newtons)
m = mass = 1000 [kg]
a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]
And the weight of any body can be calculated by means of the mass product by gravitational acceleration.
Answer:
(a) Heat transfer to the environment is: 1 MJ and (b) The efficiency of the engine is: 41.5%
Explanation:
Using the formula that relate heat and work from the thermodynamic theory as: solving to Q_out we get:
this is the heat out of the cycle or engine, so it will be heat transfer to the environment. The thermal efficiency of a Carnot cycle gives us:
where T_Low is the lowest cycle temperature and T_High the highest, we need to remember that a Carnot cycle depends only on the absolute temperatures, if you remember the convertion of K=°C+273.15 so T_Low=150+273.15=423.15 K and T_High=450+273.15=723.15K and replacing the values in the equation we get:
Answer:
20.85 years
Explanation:
2.61 km = 2610 m
2.07 kW = 2070 W
First we need to calculate the potential energy required to take m = kg of rain cloud to an altitude of 2610 m is
With a P = 2070 W power pump, this can be done within a time frame of
or 658037739/(60*60) = 182788 hours or 182788 / 24 = 7616 days or 7616 / 365.25 = 20.85 years
