One of the most efficient engines built so far has the following characteristics: combustion chamber temperature = 1900°C, exhau
suter [353]

Answer:

actual efficiency is  47.78 %

Carnot efficiency  is 67.65 %

power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp

Explanation:

given data

temperature = 1900°C = 1900+ 273 K = 2173 K

exhaust temperature = 430°C = 430 + 273 K = 703 K

fuel = 7.0 × 10^9 cal

work = 1.4 × 10^10 J

to find out

actual efficiency  and Carnot efficiency and power output of engine

solution

first we find actual efficiency that is = work / heat input

put the value and

input energy  = 7.0 × 10^9 cal  (4.184 J/1 cal)  = 29.29 × 10^9 J

actual efficiency  =  1.4 × 10^10 / ( 29.29 × 10^9 )

actual efficiency  =  0.4778

actual efficiency is  47.78 %

and

Carnot efficiency  is = 1 - ( 703 / 2173 )

so Carnot efficiency  is  = 0.67648

Carnot efficiency  is 67.65 %

and

power output  = work / time

power output  =  1.4 × 10^10 / 3600 sec

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W / 746 hp

so power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp

When a second student joins the first, the height difference between the liquid levels in the right and left pistons is 40 cm .
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

m = 56.5 kg

Explanation:

Since the addition of mass on one piston caused a change in pressure head at the other. Diameter of the piston calculated is used as 0.46 m

Δm*g / Area = p * g * Δh   ..... Eq1

m = \frac{p*h*A}{g}

m = \frac{850 * 0.4 * pi*0.46^2}{4*9.81}\\\\m= 56.5 kg

A diver can change his rotational inertia by drawing his arms andlegs close to his body in the tuck position. After he leaves th
NeX [460]

Answer:

3.14946 rad/s

Explanation:

I_i = Intial moment of inertia

I_f = Final moment of inertia

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity

\omega_f = Final angular velocity = \dfrac{2}{1.33}\times 2\pi\ rad/s

\dfrac{I_f}{I_i}=\dfrac{1}{3}

In this system the angular momentum is conserved

L_i=L_f\\\Rightarrow I_i\omega_i=I_f\omega_f\\\Rightarrow \omega_i=\dfrac{I_f\omega_f}{I_i}\\\Rightarrow \omega_i=\dfrac{1\times \dfrac{2}{1.33}\times 2\pi}{3}\\\Rightarrow \omega_i=3.14946\ rad/s

The angular velocity when the diver left the board is 3.14946 rad/s
