Answer:
<em>55%</em>
Explanation:
hot reservoir = 1100 K
cold reservoir = 500 K
<em>This is a Carnot system</em>
For a Carnot system, maximum efficicency of the system is given as
Eff = 1 - 
where Tc = temperature of cold reservoir = 500K
Th = temperature of hot reservoir = 1100 K
Eff = 1 - 
Eff = 1 - 0.45 = 0.55 or<em> 55%</em>
Answer:
Nuclear fission is almost 8,000 times more efficient than traditional fossil fuels at producing energy. That's a lot of energy packed into a small space. Nuclear energy is more efficient, which means it uses less fuel to power the plant and produces less waste.
advantages:
-produces no polluting gases
-does not contribute to global warming
-very low fuel costs
-Low fuel quantity reduces mining and transportation effects on environment
-High technology research required benefits other industries
-Power station has very long lifetime
Disadvantages:
-Waste is radioactive and safe disposal is very difficult and expensive
-Local thermal pollution from wastewater affects marine life
-Large-scale accidents can be catastrophic
-Public perception of nuclear power is negative
-Costs of building and safely decommissioning are very high
-Cannot react quickly to changes in electricity demand

Answer:
The mechanical advantage is 3 to 1
Explanation:
A frictionless pulley with three support ropes carries equal tension on each of the ropes thus;
Tension in each pulley rope = T
Total tension in the 3 ropes = 3 × T = 3·T
Direction of the tension forces on each rope = Unidirectional
Total force provided by the 3 ropes = 3·T
Therefore, a force, T, applied at the end of the rope will result in a lifting force of 3·T
Hence, the mechanical advantage = 3·T to T which is presented as follows;

The mechanical advantage = 3 to 1.
