Answer:

Centripetal force is the force on a body moving in a circle that points inward toward the point around which the object moves. The force in the opposite direction, pointing outward from the center of rotation, is called centrifugal force. For a rotating body, the centripetal and centrifugal forces are equal in magnitude, but opposite in direction

You knew that this question is ridiculously easy. So, just to
make it harder, you decided not to let us see the picture, so
that we could not "examine the circuit".

The description is talking about a parallel circuit. The other
kind is a series circuit, and that one has no forks in the road.

A Carnot engine operates with an efficiency of 26.0% when the temperature of its cold reservoir is 281 K. Assuming that the temp

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

Explanation:

In first case we have given efficiency of Carnot engine = 26 % = 0.26

Temperature of cold reservoir $T_L=281K$

We know that efficiency of Carnot engine is given by

$\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

$0.26 =1-\frac{281}{T_H}$

$T_H=379.72K$

For second Carnot engine efficiency is given as 35% = 0.35

And temperature of hot reservoir is same so $T_H=379.72K$

So $0.35=1-\frac{T_L}{379.72}$

$T_L=246.818K$

So the temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

Note that:

The gravitational potential energy = $mgh$

where m: is the mass, g: the acceleration due to the gravity and h is the height from the earth surface

Then, we can increase the gravitational potential energy by increasing the mass or the height from the earth surface

In our question, we can increase the gravitational potential energy by

Hydroelectric power relies on the transfer of energy from waves through what medium

Sedaia [141]

Through the medium of electromagnetism, energy from waves get transferred which a hydroelectric power plant heavily rely on. The turbine eventually converts the energy from the waves into mechanical energy which is transformed to electrical energy using a generator.
