"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.

The first law of thermodynamics is sometimes called
Leona [35]

Answer:

d) Law of Conservation of Energy

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only change from one form to another.

For multiple choice you can use an elimination method. If you remember the law then you know it's not A or C because "energy cannot be created nor destroyed", and it's not B because it has nothing to do with mass.

Hope this helps!

Name TWO WEAKNESSES of the model pictured below
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Here are a few:

1) The orbital radius of these planets is ridiculously small an in no way representative of their actual radii.

2) The planets will only line up like that once every 5200 years, making this very unrepresentative of their usual relations - although this does make their order in distance from the sun.

3) The nebulae, comet, lens flare,  and other junk in the background is incorrect.

4) If this is meant as a representation of the planets, then Pluto should not be there as it is now considered a planetoid.

5) The planets are incorrectly scaled both to each other and to the sun.
