Answer: e = 3.333% or 33 1/3%
                       ^
                  repeated

Identify the given information.
Work input (Wi)= 600 K
Work output (Wo) = 200 K

Choose which formula you should use. In this case, you are finding efficiency.
e =  (Wo/Wi) x 100%

Substitute and solve. 
e = (200 K/600 K) X 100%
e = 0.333 X 100%
e = 33.333% or 33 1/3%

Answer: If in you machine you put some heat X, the machine will return some work W and some heat Y. In this case, X = 600k and Y = 200k.

The efficiency of a machine is the ratio of heat transformed into work, so

E = W/X = 1 - Y/X = 1 - 200/600 = 1 - 1/3 = 0.66.

So the efficiency of the turbine is of the 66%

A 350-g mass is attached to a spring whose spring constant is 64 N/m. Its maximum acceleration is 5.3 m/s2. What is the frequenc
max2010maxim [7]

The frequency of oscillation is 2.153 Hz

What is the frequency of spring?

Spring Frequency is the natural frequency of spring with a weight at the lower end. Spring is fixed from the upper end and the lower end is free.

For the mass-spring system in this problem,

The Frequency of spring is calculated with the equation:

f = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

Where,

f = frequency of spring

k = spring constant = 64 N/m

m = mass attached to spring = 350g = 0.350 kg

a = maximum acceleration = 5.3 m/s^2

Substituting the values in the equation,

f = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{64}{0.350} }

f = \frac{1}{2\pi } ( 13.522)

f = 2.1535 Hz

Hence,

The frequency of oscillation is 2.153 Hz

Can we use a clinical thermometer to measure the temperature of a candle flame​
miv72 [106K]

In theory, yes. The 2 problems are the materials used for clinical thermometers, & the temperature capacity of the clinical thermometer. If anything, change the material & extend the measurement threshold. At that point, it wouldn´t be used for clinical garbage anymore.

Suppose you wish to whirl a pail full of water in a vertical circle at a constant speed without spilling any of its contents (ev
Yanka [14]

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.

For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m

and solving the above equation we get:

9.81 = V^2 / 0.84

V^2 = 8.2404

V = 2.87 m/s
