A Carnot engine, operating between hot and cold reservoirs whose temperatures are 800.0 and 400.0 K, respectively, performs a ce

rtain amount of work W1. The temperature of the cold reservoir is then lowered to 200.0 K (see the drawing), and the work done by the engine is W2. Assuming that the input heat QH is the same in both cases, what is the ratio W2/W1?

Answer:

The ratio between W2 and W1 is

p=1.5

Explanation:

The W2/W1 ratio equals the efficiency ratio, since the heat input is constant.

Initially, the Carnot efficiency is

1 - (Tc/Th)

1 - 400/800 = 0.50

After lowering Tc, the efficiency becomes

1 - (Tc/Th)  

1 - 200/800 = 0.75

So to determine the ratio between W2 and W1

W2/W1 = 0.75/0.50 = 1.5

An inductance L, resistance R, and ideal battery of emf are wired in series. A switch in the circuit is closed at time t = 0, at
Kay [80]

Explanation:

After some time t the current does not passing through the circuit

=>so the back emf is zero

=>here the inductor opposes decay of the circuit

- Ldi/dt = Ri

di/dt = - R/Li

di/i = - R/Ldt

now we applying the integration on both sides

log i=-R/Lt+C

here t=0=>i=io

Log io=C

=>Log i=-R/L*t + Log io

logi-Log io=-R/L*t

Log[i/io]=-R/L*t

i/io=e^-Rt/L

i=ioe^-Rt/L

the option D is correct

If carbon has an atomic number of 6, how many protons and neutrons are found in the carbon-14 atom? A.
Alex Ar [27]
The correct answer is B. 6 protons and 8 neutrons

Carbon-14 has same atomic number of 6. It has a nucleon number of 14
Atomic number = proton number = 6
Neutron number = nucleon number - atomic number = 14 - 6 = 8

Hope it helped!

Two dump trucks each have a mass of 1,500 kg. The distance of the dump truck
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

6.00 x 10⁻⁸N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of each dump trucks  = 1500kg

Distance between them  = 50m

Unknown:

New gravitational force between them = ?

Solution:

From Newton's law of universal gravitation,

        F = \frac{G m1 m2}{r^{2} }  

F is the gravitational force

G is the universal gravitation constant

m is the mass

r is the distance

           F  = \frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 1500  x 1500}{50^{2} }    = 6.00 x 10⁻⁸N
