"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.

According to my guesses, he should have swung the pendulam bob and noted its time period. In order to observe the effect of mass, he would have repeated the experiment with varied pendulam bobs. Hope this helped!

Nasa has developed deep-space 1 (ds-1), a spacecraft that is scheduled to rendezvous with the asteroid named 1992 kd (which orbi
andrezito [222]
I can't give an exact number if the original velocity of ds-1 is not given. In that case, the final answer should just be in terms of an equation. Let's denote the original velocity to be v₀ and the days to be d.

Part a.)
v = v₀ + 9.23d
3440 = v₀ + 9.23d
9.23d = 3,440 - v₀
d = (3,440 - v₀)/9.23

Part b.)

The acceleration is the change in velocity per unit time. So, that would be 9.23 m/s per day. Since there are 86,400 s in a day:

a = 9.23 m/s / day * 1 day/ 86,400 s
a = 0.0001068 m/s²

A force of 30 N is applied tangentially to the rim of a solid disk of radius 0.14 m. The disk rotates about an axis through its
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

3.8 kg

Explanation:

The torque, <em>τ</em>, due to the force, <em>F</em>, is given by

\tau = F\times r

where <em>r</em> is the radius.

This torque is also given by

\tau = I\times\alpha

where <em>I</em> and <em>α</em> are respectively the moment of inertia and the angular acceleration.

For a solid disk, its moment of inertia for an axis though its centre and perpendicular to its face is given by

I = \frac{1}{2}mr^2

where <em>m</em> is its mass and <em>r</em> is its radius.

Hence, we have

\tau = F\times r = I\times\alpha=\frac{1}{2}mr^2\times\alpha

m = \dfrac{2F}{r\alpha} = \dfrac{2(30\ \text{N})}{(0.14\ \text{m})(115\ \text{rad/s}^2)} = 3.8\ \text{kg}
