The efficiency of a Stirling cycle depends on the temperatures of the hot and cold isothermal parts of the cycle.If you increase

the upper temperature, keeping the lower temperature the same, does the efficiency increase,decrease, or remain the same?A. increaseB. decreaseC. remain the same

Answer:

A. increase

Explanation:

Stirling cycle having four processes

1.Two processes are constant temperature processes

2.Two processes are constant volume processes

The efficiency of Stirling cycle is same as the efficiency of Carnot cycle.

The efficiency of Stirling cycle given as

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

T_L=Lower temperature

T_H=Upper temperature

If we increase then upper temperature while the lower temperature is constant then the efficiency of Stirling cycle will increase because the ratio of lower and upper temperature will decreases.

Therefore answer is

A. increase

Dump Tower is 96 stories tall. A small, 1.2-kg object is dropped over the side of the roof of the tower and accelerates toward t
laiz [17]

Answer:

6.0 s

98 m/s

Explanation:

The radius of the planet is much bigger than the height of the tower, so we will assume the acceleration is constant.  Neglect air resistance.

Acceleration due to gravity on this planet is:

a = GM / r²

a = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ m³/kg/s²) (2.7 × 1.48×10²³ kg) / (1.7 × 750,000 m)²

a = 16.4 m/s²

The height of the tower is:

Δy = 96 × 3.05 m

Δy = 293 m

Given v₀ = 0 m/s, find t and v.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(293 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (16.4 m/s²) t²

t = 6.0 s

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (16.4 m/s²) (293 m)

v = 98 m/s

One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a s
DedPeter [7]

Complete Question

One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a small patch of light on the far wall. Having recently studied optics in your physics class, you're not too surprised to see that the patch of light seems to be a circular diffraction pattern. It appears that the central maximum is about 2 cm across, and you estimate that the distance from the window shade to the wall is about 5 m.

Required:

Estimate the diameter of the pinhole.  

Answer:

The diameter is  d =0.000336 m

Explanation:

     From the question we are told that

            The central maxima is D= 2cm = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02m

            The distance from the window shade is L = 5m

     The  average wavelength of the  sun is mathematically evaluated as

                         \lambda_{ave } = \frac{\lambda_i  + \lambda_f}{2}

 Generally the visible light spectrum  has a wavelength  range  between  400 nm  to 700 nm  

        So  the initial wavelength of the sun is \lambda _i = 400nm

           and the final wavelength is  \lambda_f = 700nm

  Substituting this into the above equation

                 \lambda_{sun} = \frac{400nm  +700nm}{2}

                        = 550nm

The diameter is evaluated as

              d = \frac{2.44 \lambda_{sun} L}{D}

substituting values

              d = \frac{2.44 * 550*10^{-9} * 5 }{0.02}

                d =0.000336 m

A pogo stick has a spring with a force constant of 2.50 × 104 N/m , which can be compressed 11.2 cm. what maximum height, in met
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

h = 36.4 cm

Explanation:

given,

spring constant = 2.5 x 10⁴ N/m

compressed distance = 11.2 cm = 0.112 m

mass of the child = 44 kg

maximum height = ?

by energy of conservation

K.E_i +P.E_i= K.E_f + P.E_f

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2 = mgh

\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.5 \times 10^4 \times 0.112^2 = 44\times 9.8 \times h

\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.5 \times 10^4 \times 0.112^2 = 44\times 9.8 \times h

156.8 = 44 \times 9.8 \times h

h = \dfrac{156.8}{44 \times 9.8}

h = 0.364 m

h = 36.4 cm
