Answer:

False. Astrology is not a science.

Explanation:

Astrology is a collective term for ideas about the supposed connection between the fate of people and events on Earth and the position of the celestial bodies. It mainly concerns the places in the sky of the sun, moon and planets, which were referred to as stars in ancient times, usually against the background of the fixed stars in the Zodiac. Although astrology cannot be confirmed despite research, and scientists have long rejected the principles of astrology as pseudoscience, many people continue to practice and / or believe in it.

An ideal Diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 18 and a cutoff ratio of 1.5. Determine the (1) maximum air temperature and (2)
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

(1) The maximum air temperature is 1383.002 K

(2) The rate of heat addition is 215.5 kW

Explanation:

T₁ = 17 + 273.15 = 290.15

\frac{T_2}{T_1} =r_v^{k - 1} =18^{0.4} =3.17767

T₂ = 290.15 × 3.17767 = 922.00139

\frac{T_3}{T_2} =\frac{v_3}{v_2} = r_c = 1.5

Therefore,

T₃ = T₂×1.5 = 922.00139 × 1.5 = 1383.002 K

The maximum air temperature = T₃ = 1383.002 K

(2)

\frac{v_4}{v_3} =\frac{v_4}{v_2} \times \frac{v_2}{v_3}  = \frac{v_1}{v_2} \times \frac{v_2}{v_3} = 18 \times \frac{1}{1.5} = 12

\frac{T_3}{T_4} =(\frac{v_4}{v_3} )^{k-1} = 12^{0.4} = 2.702

Therefore;

T_4 = \frac{1383.002}{2.702} =511.859 \ k

Q_1 = c_p(T_3-T_2)

Q₁ = 1.005(1383.002 - 922.00139) = 463.306 kJ/jg

Heat rejected per kilogram is given by the following relation;

c_v(T_4-T_1)  = 0.718×(511.859 - 290.15) = 159.187 kJ/kg

The efficiency is given by the following relation;

\eta = 1-\frac{\beta ^{k}-1}{\left (\beta -1  \right )r_{v}^{k-1}}

Where:

β = Cut off ratio

Plugging in the values, we get;

\eta = 1-\frac{1.5 ^{1.4}-1}{\left (1.5 -1  \right )18^{1.4-1}}= 0.5191

Therefore;

\eta = \frac{\sum Q}{Q_1}

\therefore 0.5191 = \frac{150}{Q_1}

Heat supplied = \frac{150}{0.5191}  = 288.978 \ hp

Therefore, heat supplied = 215491.064 W

Heat supplied ≈ 215.5 kW

The rate of heat addition = 215.5 kW.

A pendulum has a 0.35\ \text{kg}0.35 kg0, point, 35, space, start text, k, g, end text mass oscillating at a small angle from a
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is 0.49 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the simple pendulum, m = 0.35 kg

Length of the string to which it is attached, l = 1 m

We need to find the frequency of oscillation. The frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}} \\\\f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8}{1}} \\\\f=0.49\ Hz

So, the frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is 0.49 Hz. Hence, this is the required solution.

A train travels 55 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 52 kilometers in 5 hours. What is its average speed?
bulgar [2K]

The formula for working out speed is distance ÷ time.

55 km ÷ 2 hours = 27.5 km/h (average speed for first part of journey)

52km ÷ 5 hours = 10.4 km/h (average speed for second part of journey)

(27.5 + 10.4) ÷ 2 = 18.95 km/h (average speed throughout the journey)

Which disadvantage of nuclear power use poses the greatest threat to the environment?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

The correct answer is The storage and management of radioactive wastes

Explanation:

In general, nuclear reactions (changes in the nucleus of an atom such as fission) release a lot of energy including a lot of heat. Moreover, this heat is used by humans to obtain electricity and other types of energy, which is known as a nuclear power. This type of power is considered positive because it does not emit carbon and it is quite efficient.

However, in most cases, it is a threat to the environment and living beings because storing and managing the wastes of this type of power is difficult and expensive. Indeed, dealing with the wastes of nuclear power requires complex infrastructure, and any accident or leaking leads to serious consequences from the death of those exposed to the wastes to permanent loss of diversity or changes in nearby areas.
