"Heat engines and heat pumps are similar in that they both operate on the principle that heat flows naturally from a hot substan

ce to a colder one and, in the process, can be made to do work. However, there is an importance difference between them."

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The difference between a heat engine and a heat pump is that a heat engine is a device that converts Thermal energy into Mechanical Energy while a heat pump is a system that extracts heat from a cold body and delivers it to a hot body.

A Heat Engine generates mechanical energy (work) from the temperature difference between two thermal reservoirs while a  Heat pump extract heat from a low temperature reservoir and delivers the heat energy to a high temperature reservoir.

Aleksandr [31]
Pitch is directly related to the frequency of the sound. In this item, we are given that the frequency of the sound is higher compared to those which are audible to the human being's ears. The pitch therefore of the dog's whistle is high. 

On the other hand, the frequency and the wavelength of a certain wave are inversely proportional. This means that the high frequency wave will have a short wavelength. 

Hence, the answer to this item would have to be "high pitch with a short wavelength" 

The answer to this item is the second option.

Drupady [299]

The phases of the moon are the changing appearances of the moon, as seen from Earth. Which phase happens immediately after a third quarter moon are the following

Explanation:

  • After the full moon (maximum illumination), the light continually decreases. So the waning gibbous phase occurs next. Following the third quarter is the waning crescent, which wanes until the light is completely gone -- a new moon.

waning gibbous phase

  • The waning gibbous phase occurs between the full moon and third quarter phases. The last quarter moon (or a half moon) is when half of the lit portion of the Moon is visible after the waning gibbous phase.

Time takes by the moon to go through all the phases

about 29.5 days

  • It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant “fixed” stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon).
  • At 3rd quarter, the moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. Then we see only a crescent. At new, the moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset, and we don't see any of the illuminated side!

A camera has a single converging lens with a fixed focal length f. (a) How far should the lens be from the film (or in a present
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

a) Due to the characteristic that a converging lens focuses light rays from infinity and parallel to its main axis. Therefore, the lens should be placed at a distance "f" from the film, in this way it will form the image of the object placed at infinity in said film.

b) Since the converging lens produces an image of an object placed at a distance of 2f, the lens must be placed at the same distance (2f), so that this object that is placed at a distance of 2f is focused.
