Answer:The highest possible efficiency of this heat engine is 11%

Explanation:

Saturated water temperature at P1, Pressure in Heat addition,

1.1 MPa=185°C +273= 458K

Saturated water temperature at P2, Pressure in Heat rejection,

0.3MPa=133.5°C+ 273=406.5K

The highest possible efficiency of any heat engine is the Carnot efficiency given as

Carnot efficiency, ηmax = 1- (T2/ T1)

1- (406.5K/458K)

1-0.88755=0.112

=11%

A flywheel in the form of a uniformly thick disk of radius 1.33 m1.33 m has a mass of 70.6 kg70.6 kg and spins counterclockwise

ladessa [460]

Answer:

The constant torque required to stop the disk is 8.6 N-m in clockwise direction .

Explanation:

Let counterclockwise be positive direction and clockwise be negative direction .

Given

Radius of disk , r = 1.33 m

Mass of disc , m = 70.6 kg

Initial angular velocity , $\omega_i =217 rpm$

Final angular velocity , $\omega_f =0\, rpm$

Time taken to stop , t = 2.75 min

Let $\alpha$ be the angular acceleration

We know

$\omega _f=\omega _i+\alpha t$

=> $0=217+2.75\alpha =>\alpha = -78.9\frac{rev}{min^{2}}$

=> $\alpha =-\frac{78.9\times 2\pi}{60\times 60}\frac{rad}{s^{2}}=-0.138 \frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

Torque required to stop is given by

$\tau =I\alpha$

where moment of inertia , $I=\frac{mr^{2}}{2}=\frac{70.6\times 1.33^{2}}{2}kg.m^{2}=62.5 kg.m^{2}$

=> $\therefore \tau =-0.138\times 62.5\, N.m=-8.6\, N.m$

Thus the constant torque required to stop the disk is 8.6 N-m in clockwise direction .

Please help!!!! I will give brainliest if correct!!!

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The density ρ of metal block is 8.92g/cm³

So from the given density table this corresponds to copper which has density of 8.92(g/mL)

Explanation:

Oh yeah, I got the correct unit update,

Now this problem bothers on the density of substances

We know that the density of a substance is expressed as

Density ρ= mass/ volume

Given data

Mass of metal block m= 62.44g

Volume of metal block v= 7 cm³

Hence we can find the density of the metal block by plugging in our data into the expression for density

ρ of metal block = 62.44/7

ρ of metal block = 8.92g/cm³

The block is a copper block

One of your classmates, in a fit of unrestrained ego, jumps onto a lab table:

Anettt [7]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the results for the forces of the system are

a) The free body diagram is in the attachment

b) The normal force is N = 737 N

c) The mass of the table is 10.2 kg

Newton's second law indicates that the net force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is zero, it is called the equilibrium condition

∑ F = 0

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, F is the external forces

a) A free body diagram is a scheme of the forces without the details of the bodies, in the attachmentt we see a free body diagram of the system.

b) The reaction force of the ground is applied in each of the legs of the table, in general this force has the same magnitude in each leg, therefore in Newton's second law we can place it as a single force

N = N₁ + N₂ + N₃ + N₄₄

Let's apply the equilibrium condition

N - $W_m -w_{table}$ = 0

N = $W_m +w_{table}$

N = $M_m g + w_{table}$

They indicate the pose of the boy is 65 kg, for the weight of the table of a laboratory table is approximately 100 N

N = 65 9.8 + 100

N = 737 N

c) To calculate the mass of the table we use the relation

W = $m_{table}$ g

$m_{table} = \frac{w_{table}}{g}$

$m_{tabble}= \frac{100}{9.8}$

$m_{table}$ e = 10.2 kg

In conclusion using the equilibrium condition we can find the results for the forces are

a) The free body diagram is in the attachment

b) The normal force is N = 737 N

c) The mass of the table is 10.2 kg

Calculate the magnitude of the linear momentum for the following cases. (a) a proton with mass 1.67 10-27 kg, moving with a spee

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

<h2>8.0995×10^-21 kgms^-1</h2>

Explanation:

Mass of proton :

$m_P=1.67\times 10^-^2^7\:kg\\$

Speed of Proton:

$v_P=4.85\times 10^6$

Linear Momentum of a particle having mass (m) and velocity (v) :

$-> p =m->v\:\:\: (1)$

Magnitude of momentum :

$p=mv\:\:\: (2)$

Frome equation (2), magnitude of linear momentum of the proton :

$p_P=m_P\:v_P\\\\p_P=1.67\times 10^-^2^7 \:kg\times4.85\times 10^6\:ms^-^1\\\\p_P= 8.0995\times 10^-^2^1\:kgms^-^1$
