Answer:
The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is 26.8 %.
Explanation:
Temperature of hot reservoir, TH = 100 degree C = 373 K
temperature of cold reservoir, Tc = 0 degree C = 273 K
The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is
The efficiency of Carnot's heat engine is 26.8 %.
Direction!
Velocity is a vector quantity and speed is a scalar quantity. Vector quantities includes both magnitude and direction, while scalar quantities only have magnitude. :)
Answer:
The car manufacturers could increase bore of the cylinders, place the engine in the center or back of the car, add 1 to 2 turbochargers, and lower the center of gravity of the vehicle to increase traction.
Explanation:
Turbochargers would be recommended because they significantly increase both the torque of the engine as well as the amount of horses powering the car while also increasing original efficiency both with and without the additional power. Weight adjustment allows for lightweight vehicles with good traction. This is important to both keep control of the car under acceleration, but it also makes the vehicle more efficient due to the now sheddable unnecessary weight. A more obvious approach would be to increase the base horsepower and torque of the engine by increasing the bore of the cylinders and the weight of the pistons. This acts as an inertial lever, because the extra piston weight will drag the crankshaft faster. This could also be achieved by taking away piston weight, but this could be catastrophic should a piston slip.
Answer: 
Explanation:
We are given the following formula:
(1)
Where:
is the amount of heat
is the mass of water
is the specific heat of water
is the variation in temperature, which in this case is 
Rewriting equation (1) with the known values at the right side, we will prove the result is 
:
(2)
This is the result
Answer:
Explanation:
Frequency refers to the number of occurrences of a periodic event per time and is measured in cycles/second. In this case, there is 1 cycle per 2 seconds. So the frequency is 1 cycles/2 s = 0.5 Hz.
