(Power Cycle)​ Your new boss announces at a team meeting that she has developed atechnology that will perform a power cycle that

operates between hot and cold reservoirs at 902 °C and 22 °C that produces a power output of 28 kW while receiving 150,000 kJ/hof energy via heat transfer from the hot reservoir. You are suspicious that this cyclesounds too good to be true, so you decide to check. What do you find

Answer:

answered

Explanation:

The maximum possible efficiency is  

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

\eta= 1-\frac{295}{1175}

= 0.7489

W_out= 28 KW

Q_in= 15000/3600= 41.67 KW

now

\eta= \frac{W_out}{Q_H}

\eta= \frac{28}{41.67} =0.6791

which is less than \eta_{max}

claim is true

Explain Sound level intensity with mathematical steps?
yan [13]

Answer:

Sound intensity levels are quoted in decibels (dB) much more often than sound intensities in watts per meter squared. Decibels are the unit of choice in the scientific literature as well as in the popular media. The reasons for this choice of units are related to how we perceive sounds. How our ears perceive sound can be more accurately described by the logarithm of the intensity rather than directly to the intensity. The sound intensity level β in decibels of a sound having an intensity I in watts per meter squared is defined to be β(dB)=10log10(II0)β(dB)=10log10⁡(II0), where I0 = 10−12 W/m2 is a reference intensity. In particular, I0 is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound a person with normal hearing can perceive at a frequency of 1000 Hz. Sound intensity level is not the same as intensity. Because β is defined in terms of a ratio, it is a unitless quantity telling you the level of the sound relative to a fixed standard (10−12 W/m2, in this case). The units of decibels (dB) are used to indicate this ratio is multiplied by 10 in its definition. The bel, upon which the decibel is based, is named for Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone.

What is the relationship between the angle of an incline and the acceleration of an object moving down the incline? How would yo
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The relationship between angle of an incline and the acceleration of an object moving down the incline.

As the angle of an incline increases, so does the acceleration of the body moving down the incline increases, resolving the force acting on an inclined object

Parallel force = mgsin, perpendicular = mgcosΘ

With th weigh component 'mg' of the parallel force accounting for the acceleration of the body down the incline.

mgsinΘ = ma

Fnet = ma

B.) From Fnet = ma

Fnet = ma

a = Fnet / m

Where Fnet = Net force = mgsinΘ, a = acceleration

which of the following objects is considered negatively charged A - one with excess electrons on the surface B - one with excess
Ne4ueva [31]
An object that could be considered as negatively charged would be when it has an excess of an electron in its atom. However, when it loses an electron, it could go back to its stable state which is "uncharged" or when there is an excess proton, it could be a positively charged object.
