Answer:

13.7%

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat absorbed by the engine = 97.2 kJ

Heat exhausted by the engine in each cycle = 83.8 kJ

We need to find the efficiency of the engine. It is calculated by the formula.

\eta=1-\dfrac{Q_e}{Q_a}\\\\=1-\dfrac{83.8}{97.2}\\\\=0.137\\\\=13.7\%

so, the efficiency of heat engine is 13.7%.

You illuminate the grating in a spectrometer at normal incidence θi=0° with a beam of light that has a wavelength of 6562.8 Å. T
monitta

Answer:

a) θ₁ = 23.14 ° , b) θ₂ = 51.81 °

Explanation:

An address network is described by the expression

     d sin θ = m λ

Where is the distance between lines, λ is the wavelength and m is the order of the spectrum

The distance between one lines, we can find used a rule of proportions

     d = 1/600

     d = 1.67 10⁻³ mm

    d = 1-67 10⁻³ m

Let's calculate the angle

    sin θ = m λ / d

    θ  = sin⁻¹ (m λ / d)

First order

    θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (1 6.5628 10⁻⁷ / 1.67 10⁻⁶)

    θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (3.93 10⁻¹)

    θ₁ = 23.14 °

Second order

     θ₂ = sin⁻¹ (2 6.5628 10⁻⁷ / 1.67 10⁻⁶)

     θ₂ = sin⁻¹ (0.786)

     θ₂ = 51.81 °

You have two lightweight metal spheres, each hanging from an insulating nylon thread. One of the spheres has a net negative char
kkurt [141]

Answer:attract each other

Explanation:

When two-sphere, one with a negative charge and another neutral is brought close together but do not touch then they try to attract each other.

This because of the polarization of the neutral sphere as it is placed in the vicinity of a negatively charged sphere. The negatively charged sphere will induce the positive charge in the neutral sphere and they will attract each other according to Columb law.

Calculate the number of free electrons per cubic meter for some hypothetical metal, assuming that there are 1.3 free electrons p
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The number of free electrons per cubic meter is 7.61\times 10^{28}\ m^{-3}

Explanation:

It is given that,

The number of free electrons per cubic meter is, 1.3

Electrical conductivity of metal, \sigma=6.8\times 10^7\ \Omega^{-1}m^{-1}

Density of metal, \rho=10.5\ g/cm^3

Atomic weight, A = 107.87 g/mol

Let n is the number of  free electrons per cubic meter such that,

n=1.3\ N

n=1.3(\dfrac{\rho N_A}{A})

Where

\rho is the density of silver atom

N_A is the Avogadro number

A is the atomic weight of silver

n=1.3\times (\dfrac{10.5\ g/cm^3\times 6.02\times 10^{23}\ atoms/mol}{107.87\ g/mol})

n=7.61\times 10^{22}\ cm^{-3}

or

n=7.61\times 10^{28}\ m^{-3}

Hence, this is the required solution.
