intensity is the answer. i just got it on the test
The first choice is the answer.
Answer: minimum theoretical value of T = 750k
Explanation:
Assuming the the cycle is reversible and is ideal then
Wnet/Qh = Nmin .... equa 1
Equation 1 can be rewritten as
(Th -TL)/ Th ...equation 2
Th= temp of hot reservoir
TL= temp of low reservoir= 300
Wnet = power generated=10kw
He = energy transfer=10kj per cycle
Qhe = power transfer = (100/60)*10Kj = 16.67kw
Sub into equat 1
Nmin = 10/16.67 = 0.6
Sub Nmin into equation 2
Th = -TL/(Nmin -1) = -300k/(0.6 - 1)
Th =750k
That depends on a number of things that we don't know because you haven't told us.
If any of the things on this list changes, then the answer to the question changes:
-- What is "it" ?
-- Was it dropped, thrown, fired, or launched ?
-- From what height above the ground ?
-- With what speed ?
-- In what direction ?
-- What is the acceleration of gravity where this took place ?
-- Did any drag act on it, due to liquid or gas, before it hit the ground ?
