Answer:

Explanation:

Theoretical efficiency = T₁ - T₂ / T₁ where T₁ and T₂ is absolute temperature of hot and cold end of the heat engine.

= 600 / (273 + 700 )

= 600 / 973

= .6166

operating efficiency = 40% of .6166

= .4 x .6166

= .2466 = 24.66 %

efficiency = work output / heat input

= 5000 / heat input = .2466

heat input = 5000 / .2466

= 20275.75 J .

HEAT EXTRACED = 20275.75 J.

What is the length a rubberband was stretched if it has a spring constant of 5700N/m and is currently holding 8600J OF POTENTIAL

lozanna [386]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m$

Explanation:

<u>Elastic Potential Energy </u>

Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.

$\displaystyle PE = \frac{1}{2}k(\Delta x)^2$

Given a rubber band of a spring constant of k=5700 N/m that is holding potential energy of PE=8600 J, it's required to find the change of length under these conditions.

Solving for Δx:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\swrt{\frac{2PE}{k}}$

Substituting:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{\frac{2*8600}{5700}}$

Calculating:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{3.0175}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m}$

Indicate the result of each of the following unit vector cross products (unit vector hat-symbols not shown): . kxi = . jxi= -jxk

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cross product of two vectors is given by

$\overrightarrow{A}\times \overrightarrow{B}=\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |Sin\theta \widehat{n}$

Where, θ be the angle between the two vectors and \widehat{n} be the unit vector along the direction of cross product of two vectors.

Here, K x i = - j

As K is the unit vector along Z axis, i is the unit vector along X axis and j be the unit vector along axis.

The direction of cross product of two vectors is given by the right hand palm rule.

So, k x i = j

j x i = - k

- j x k = - i

i x i = 0

What does the person in back of the ambulance experience? A) a lower frequency of the siren B) a lower amplitude of the siren C)

hoa [83]

The answer to your question is "A. a lower frequency of the siren.

Because the person in back of the ambulance will hear a lower frequency of the siren. This is because the waves are stretched out. A longer wavelength results in a lower frequency.

Typically, water runs through the baseboard copper tubing and, therefore, fresh hot water is constantly running through the pipi

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: The temperature of the water falls by 3.3°C

Explanation:

The heat change is related to the change in temperature by the equation

dH = m Cp dT

In this example, -2665 J = 193 g x 4.184 J/g°C x dT

so dT = -3.3 °C

A 100 kg box is suspended from two ropes. The "left rope makes an angle of 20" degrees with the vertical, and the right rope mak

GarryVolchara [31]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 100 kg

Left rope makes an angle of 20 degrees with the vertical, and the right rope makes an angle of 40 degrees.

From the attached figure, the x and y component of forces is given by :

$T_{1x} =-T_1 cos (20)$

$T_{2x} = T_2 cos (40)$

$mg_x = 0$

$T_{1y} = T_1 sin (20)$

$T_{2y} = T_2 sin (40)$

$mg_y= -mg$

Let $R_x$ and $R_y$ is the resultant in x and y direction.

$R_x=-T_1 cos (20)+T_2 cos (40)+0$

$R_y=T_1 sin(20)+T_2 sin(40)-mg$

As the system is balanced the net force acting on it is 0. So,

$-T_1 cos (20)+T_2 cos (40)+0=0$ .............(1)

$T_1 sin(20)+T_2 sin(40)-100\times 9.8=0$ ..................(2)

On solving equation (1) and (2) we get:

$T_1=866.86\ N$ (tension on the left rope)

$T_2=1063.36\ N$ (tension on the right rope)

So, the tension on the right rope is 1063.36 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
