In the first stage of a two-stage Carnot engine, energy is absorbed as heat Q1 at temperature T1 = 500 K, work W1 is done, and e
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Efficiency = 52%

Explanation:

Given:

First stage

heat absorbed, Q₁ at temperature T₁ = 500 K

Heat released, Q₂ at temperature T₂ = 430 K

and the work done is W₁

Second stage

Heat released, Q₂ at temperature T₂ = 430 K

Heat released, Q₃ at temperature T₃ = 240 K

and the work done is W₂

Total work done, W = W₁ + W₂

Now,

The efficiency is given as:

\eta=\frac{\textup{Total\ work\ done}}{\textup{Energy\ provided}}

or

Work done = change in heat

thus,

W₁ = Q₁ - Q₂

W₂ = Q₂ - Q₃

Thus,

\eta=\frac{(Q_1-Q_2)\ +\ (Q_2-Q_3)}{Q_1}}

or

\eta=1-\frac{(Q_1-Q_3)}{Q_1}}

or

\eta=1-\frac{(Q_3)}{Q_1}}

also,

\frac{Q_1}{T_1}=\frac{Q_2}{T_2}=\frac{Q_3}{T_3}

or

\frac{T_3}{T_1}=\frac{Q_3}{Q_1}

thus,

\eta=1-\frac{(T_3)}{T_1}}

thus,

\eta=1-\frac{(240\ K)}{500\ K}}

or

\eta=0.52

or

Efficiency = 52%

A car cruises at a constant rate of 50 miles per hour. How much time will it take to go 600 miles?
Len [333]
Speed is constant. 50 miles = 1 hour. 600/50 = 12. 1hr(12) = 12 hours.

A 99.1-kg baseball player slides into second base. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground is μk =
Stels [109]

Answer:

628.022466 N

8.61 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass

\mu = Coefficient of friction

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F_f=\mu mg\\\Rightarrow F_f=0.646\times 99.1\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_f=628.022466\ N

Magnitude of frictional force is 628.022466 N

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{F_f}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{628.022466}{99.1}\\\Rightarrow a=6.33726\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-6.33726\times 1.36\\\Rightarrow u=8.61\ m/s

Initial speed of the player is 8.61 m/s

why is a train more difficult to stop then a rolling ball even if they are traveling at the same speed? URGENT
zloy xaker [14]
Think of the formula force=mass x acceleration. even though they have the same acceleration, a train has more mass. is that helpful?
