A Carnot engine whose high-temperature reservoir is at 464 K has an efficiency of 25.0%. By how much should the temperature of t
nexus9112 [7]

Answer

given,

high temperature reservoir (T_c)= 464 K

efficiency  of reservoir (ε)= 25 %

temperature to decrease = ?

increase in efficiency = 42 %

now, using equation

 \epsilon = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

 0.25 = 1 - \dfrac{T_C}{464}

 T_C= (1 - 0.25) \times 464

 T_C= 0.75 \times 464

      T_C = 348 K

now,

if the efficiency is equal to 42$ = 0.42

 T_C= (1 - 0.42) \times 464

 T_C= 0.58 \times 464

 T_C= 269.12\ K

Stellar nurseries, such as the orion nebula, contain hundreds or more fragmenting and contracting regions, as well as many proto
Natasha_Volkova [10]

The hydrogen fusion process will begin after the protostar reaches a temperature of 10 million degrees kelvin, and it will then turn into a stable star.

<h3>How does a protostar become a stable star?</h3>

The interstellar medium can sometimes be gathered into a large nebula, which is a cloud of gas and dust. A nebula can span a number of light years. These nebulae are where gas and dust can combine to produce stars. Until a star can combine hydrogen into helium, it cannot be considered a star. They are referred to as protostars before then. As gravity starts to gather the gases into a ball, a protostar is created. Accrution is the term for this procedure.

Gravitational energy starts to heat the gasses as gravity draws them into the ball's core, which causes the gasses to radiate radiation. Radiation initially just dissipates into space. However, much of the radiation is retained inside the protostar as it draws in stuff and becomes denser, which causes the protostar to heat up even more quickly.

The hydrogen fusion process will begin after the protostar reaches a temperature of 10 million degrees kelvin, and it will then turn into a star.

An object falls from the top of a building that is 25 m high. Air resistance is negligible.
Vlada [557]

The velocity of the object s calculated as 22.1 m/s.

<h3>What is the speed of the object?</h3>

Given that we can write that;

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh

Now u = 0 m/s because the object was dropped from a height

v^2 = 2gh

v = √2 * 9.8 * 25

v = 22.1 m/s

Explain why engineers leave a gap in a concrete bridge (answer must relate to density)
seraphim [82]
<span>Different materials expand and contract at different rates based on temperature. Just like if you leave a plastic bottle full of water in a freezer it will burst, but if you leave it partially full no problem.....Ok?Expansion joints do the same for bridges. There is a gap to allow for temperature related expansions and contractions. Sometimes you drive over bridges and roadways where this movement is constricted and you might notice a bumpy ride. Engineers can predict the variation of structural length based on span lengths and leave the necessary gaps.....btw, NICE QUESTION:)</span>

a 0.40kg soccer ball approaches a player horizontally with a velocity of 18m/s north. the player strikes the ball and causes it
denis23 [38]
Impulse = Ft = (m)(delta v)
delta v = change in velocity = velocity final - velocity initial.
= -22m/s - +18m/s = -40m/s.
mdeltav = (0.40kg)(-40m/s) = -16kgm/s or -16Ns.
