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%

car was moving in a straight road of length 320 km it covered 240 km with an average velocity 75 km/hr then it ran out of fuel a
Stella [2.4K]

The average velocity of the car for the whole journey is 69.57 km/h.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Length of the road, L = 320 km</em>
  • <em>Distance covered = 240 km at 75 km/h</em>
  • <em>time spent refueling, t₂ = 0.6 hr</em>
  • <em>Final velocity, = 100 km/hr</em>

The time spent by the before refueling is calculated as follows;

t = \frac{d}{v} \\\\t_1 = \frac{240}{75} \\\\t_1 = 3.2 \ hours

The time spent by the car for the remaining journey;

t_3 = \frac{320 - 240}{100} \\\\t_3 = 0.8 \ hr

The total time of the journey is calculated as follows;

t = t_1 + t_2 + t_3\\\\t = 3.2 \ hr \ + \ 0.6 \ hr \ + \ 0.8 \ hr\\\\t = 4.6 \ hours

The average velocity of the car for the whole journey is calculated as follows;

v = \frac{total \ distance }{total \ time} \\\\v = \frac{320}{4.6} \\\\v = 69.57 \ km/h

If there is a huge boulder on your lawn and you want to determine its density, but it is
Olin [163]

There are different options here but all of them work by approximating and assuming.

i) that the boulder is above ground.

ii) that the bottom surface of the boulder is known.

iii) the shape of the boulder is taken into account.

The most accurate way is measuring it by displacement method but the boulder is immovable hence the volume can be calculated by measuring the boulder or a waterproof box to be built around the boulder and calculate the volume occupied by boulder.

All the above methods are estimating methods.

*Another way to find the density is through specific gravity.

S.G = <u>Density</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>object</u>

Density of water

If the material that makes the boulder is known that is if it's stone or a mineral then the specific gravity can be found.

If the boulder is purely rock then S.G lies between 3 - 3.5 and the density of water is known thus the density of the boulder can be found without moving the boulder.

This is what I think after correction and allthe best!
