(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

Normalize the equations
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Solution is in explanation

Explanation:

part a)

For normalization we have

\int_{0}^{\infty }f(x)dx=1\\\\\therefore \int_{0}^{\infty }ae^{-kx}dx=1\\\\\Rightarrow a\int_{0}^{\infty }e^{-kx}dx=1\\\\\frac{a}{-k}[\frac{1}{e^{kx}}]_{0}^{\infty }=1\\\\\frac{a}{-k}[0-1]=1\\\\\therefore a=k

Part b)

\int_{0}^{L }f(x)dx=1\\\\\therefore Re(\int_{0}^{L }ae^{-ikx}dx)=1\\\\\Rightarrow Re(a\int_{0}^{L }e^{-ikx}dx)=1\\\\\therefore Re(\frac{a}{-ik}[\frac{1}{e^{ikx}}]_{0}^{L})=1\\\\\Rightarrow Re(\frac{a}{-ik}(e^{-ikL}-1))=1\\\\\frac{a}{k}Re(\frac{1}{-i}(cos(-kL)+isin(-kL)-1))=1

\frac{a}{k}Re(\frac{1}{-i}(cos(-kL)+isin(-kL)-1))=1\\\\\frac{a}{k}Re(icos(-kL)+sin(kL)+\frac{1}{i})=1\\\\\frac{a}{k}sin(kL)=1\\\\a=\frac{k}{sin(kL)}

Can a particle with constant speed be accelarating?<br>what if it has constant velocity?​
Olin [163]

Explanation:

it can be safely concluded that an object moving in a circle at constant speed is indeed accelerating. It is accelerating because the direction of the velocity vector is changing.

When an object is moving with constant velocity, it does not change direction nor speed and therefore is represented as a straight line when graphed as distance over time.

Why is a protective apron or lab coat important to use when working with acids?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

Explanation:

A protective apron or lab coat is important when working with acids because acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

  • An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions in an aqueous solution.
  • A strong acid ionizes completely in solution.
  • When they come in contact with a fabric, they break them down violently.
  • So, if they come in contact with the skin, it causes a violent break down of body tissues.
  • The apron acts a protective layer.
