The engine efficiency is 64.73 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data

To find the engine’s efficiency we have the formula,

Energy input- 4565 KJ

Energy output - 2955KJ

Efficiency= energy output/ energy input ×100%

=2955/4565

=0.6473 ×100

η =64.73 %

The engine efficiency is 64.73 %

When light passes through sequential interfaces, there may be a change of phase upon reflection at each interface.

Lena [83]

That's true.

I have a hunch that there definitely IS a change of phase at every reflection.

Answer:

0.98kW

Explanation:

The conservation of energy is given by the following equation,

$\Delta U = Q-W$

$\dot{m}(h_1+\frac{1}{2}V_1^2+gz_1)-\dot{W} = \dot{m}(h_2+\frac{1}{2}V_2^2+gz_)$

Where

$\dot{m} =$ Mass flow

$h_1 =$ Specific Enthalpy (IN)

$h_2 =$ Specific Enthalpy (OUT)

$g =$ Gravity

$z_{1,2} =$ Heigth state (In, OUT)

$V_{1,2} =$ Velocity (In, Out)

Our values are given by,

$T_i = 10\°C$

$P_1 = 100kPa$

$\dot{m} = 5kg/s$

$z_2 = 20m$

For this problem we know that as pressure, temperature as velocity remains constant, then

$h_1 = h_2$

$V_1 = V_2$

Then we have that our equation now is,

$\dot{m}(gz_1) = \dot{m}(gz_2)+\dot{W}$

$\dot{W} = \frac{(5)(9.81)(0-20)}{1000}$

$\dot{W} = -0.98kW$

What is equilibrium????

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Explanation:

An equilibrium is a state in which opposing forces or influences are banned.

An example of equilibrium is in economics when supply and demand are equal. An example of equilibrium is when you are calm and steady. An example of equilibrium is when hot air and cold air are entering the room at the same time so that the overall temperature of the room does not change at all.
