A Carnot engine operates between temperature levels of 600 K and 300 K. It drives a Carnot refrigerator, which provides cooling

KATRIN_1 [288]

Explanation:

Formula for maximum efficiency of a Carnot refrigerator is as follows.

$\frac{W}{Q_{H_{1}}} = \frac{T_{H_{1}} - T_{C_{1}}}{T_{H_{1}}}$ ..... (1)

And, formula for maximum efficiency of Carnot refrigerator is as follows.

$\frac{W}{Q_{C_{2}}} = \frac{T_{H_{2}} - T_{C_{2}}}{T_{C_{2}}}$ ...... (2)

Now, equating both equations (1) and (2) as follows.

$Q_{C_{2}} \frac{T_{H_{2}} - T_{C_{2}}}{T_{C_{2}}}$ = $Q_{H_{1}} \frac{T_{H_{1}} - T_{C_{1}}}{T_{H_{1}}}$

$\gamma = \frac{Q_{C_{2}}}{Q_{H_{1}}}$

= $\frac{T_{C_{2}}}{T_{H_{1}}} (\frac{T_{H_{1}} - T_{C_{1}}}{T_{H_{2}} - T_{C_{2}}})$

= $\frac{250}{600} (\frac{(600 - 300)K}{300 K - 250 K})$

= 2.5

Thus, we can conclude that the ratio of heat extracted by the refrigerator ("cooling load") to the heat delivered to the engine ("heating load") is 2.5.

A wheel 1.0 m in radius rotates with an angular acceleration of 4.0rad/s2 . (a) If the wheel’s initial angular velocity is 2.0 r

Oliga [24]

Answer:

(a) ωf= 42 rad/s

(b) θ = 220 rad

(c) at = 4 m/s² , v = 42 m/s

Explanation:

The uniformly accelerated circular movement, is a circular path movement in which the angular acceleration is constant.

There is tangential acceleration (at ) and is constant.

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated :

ωf= ω₀ + α*t Formula (1)

θ= ω₀*t + (1/2)*α*t² Formula (2)

at = α*R Formula (3)

v= ω*R Formula (4)

Where:

θ : angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

α : angular acceleration (rad/s²)

t : time interval (s)

ω₀ : initial angular velocity ( rad/s)

ωf: final angular velocity ( rad/s)

R : radius of the circular path (cm)

at : tangential acceleration (m/s²)

v : tangential speed (m/s)

Data

α = 4.0 rad/s² : wheel’s angular acceleration

t = 10 s

ω₀ = 2.0 rad/s : wheel’s initial angular velocity

R = 1.0 m : wheel’s radium

(a) Wheel’s angular velocity after 10 s

We replace data in the formula (1):

ωf= ω₀ + α*t

ωf= 2 + (4)*(10)

ωf= 42 rad/s

(b) Angle that rotates the wheel in the 10 s interval

We replace data in the formula (2):

θ= ω₀*t + (1/2)*α*t²

θ= (2)*(10) + (1/2)*(4)*(10)²

θ= 220 rad

θ= 220 rad

(c) Tangential speed and acceleration of a point on the rim of the wheel at the end of the 10-s interval

We replace data in the Formula (3)

at = α*R = (4)(1)

at = 4 m/s²

We replace data in the Formula (4)

v= ω*R = (42)*(1)

v = 42 m/s

How does state-dependence impact memory recall?

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The state of the person under the influence of alcohol

The place in which the memory was initially encoded for the retrieval of information.

Retrieval of information is generally better given similar rather than different contextual cues Motivational and emotional factors

These are also likely to affect recall and forgetting.

bumper car A (281 kg) moving +2.82 m/s makes an elastic collision with bumper car B (209 kg) moving -1.72 m/s. what is the veloc

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The final velocity of the car A is -1.053 m/s.

Explanation:

For an elastic collision both the kinetic energy and the momentum of the system are conserved.

Let us call

$m_A$ = mass of car A;

$v_{A1}$ = the initial velocity of car A;

$v_{A2}$ = the final velocity of car A;

and

$m_B$ = mass of car B;

$v_{B1}$ = the initial velocity of car B;

$v_{B2}$ = the final velocity of car B.

Then, the law of conservation of momentum demands that

$m_Av_{A1}+m_Bv_{B1} =m_Av_{A2}+m_Bv_{B2}$

And the conservation of kinetic energy says that

$\dfrac{1}{2} m_Av_{A1}^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m_Bv_{B1}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}m_Av_{A2}^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m_Bv_{B2}^2$

These two equations are solved for final velocities $v_{A2}$ and $v_{B2}$ to give

$v_{A2} =\frac{m_A-m_B}{m_A+m_B} v_{A1}+\frac{2m_B}{m_A+m_B} v_{B1}$

$v_{B2} =\frac{2m_A}{m_A+m_B} v_{A1}+\frac{m_B-m_A}{m_A+m_B} v_{B1}$

by putting in the numerical values of the variables we get

$v_{A2} =\frac{281-209}{281+209} (2.82)+\frac{2*209}{281+209} (-1.72)$

$\boxed{v_{A2} = -1.05m/s}$

and

$v_{B2} =\frac{2*281}{281+209} (2.82)+\frac{209-281}{281+209} (-1.72)$

$\boxed{v_{B2} = 3.49m/s}$

Thus, the final velocity of the car A is -1.053 m/s and of car B is 3.49 m/s.
