Consider a Carnot cycle executed in a closed system with 0.6 kg of air. The temperature limits of the cycle are 300 and 1100 K,

and the minimum and maximum pressures that occur during the cycle are 20 and 3000 kPa. Assuming constant specific heats, determine the net work output per cycle.

Answer:

63.8 kJ

Explanation:

The net work output per cycle is the difference in heat input and heat output. The heat input and heat output are expressed as a function of volume ratios, while volume is expressed as a function of pressure and pressure as a function of temperature.

R = 287 J/kg.K, k = 1.4

Hence the net work input (W) is given as:

W=Q_{in}-Q_{out}\\\\W=mR[T_Hln\frac{V_2}{V_1} -T_Lln\frac{V_3}{V_4}]\\\\=mR[T_Hln\frac{P_1}{P_2} -T_Lln\frac{P_4}{P_3}]\\\\=mR[T_Hln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})  -T_Lln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})]\\\\=mR(T_H-T_L)ln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})\\\\Substituting\ values:\\\\W=mR(T_H-T_L)ln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})=0.6*287(1100-300)ln(\frac{3000*10^3}{2-*10^3}(\frac{300}{1100} )^\frac{1.4}{1.4-1})\\\\

W=63.8\ kJ

A copper wire 225m long must experience a voltage drop of less than 2.0v when a current of 3.5 a passes through it. compute the
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

V = I * R

R = 2 / 3.5 = .571 ohms     maximum resistance of wire

R = ρ L / A  where R is proportional to L and inversely proportional to A

A = ρ L / R     minimum area of wire

ρ = 1 / μ  =     1.67E-8 ohm-m      resistivity inverse of conductivity

A = 1.67E-8 ohm-m * 225 m / .571 ohm = 6.68E-6 m^2

A = 6.68 mm^2       since 1 mm^2 = 10-6 m^2   or 1 mm = 10-3 m

A = Π r^2 = 6.68 mm^2

r = (6.68 / 3.14)^1/2 mm = 2.13 mm      radius of wire

d = 2 * r = 4.26 mm

Two hypothetical discoveries in Part A deal with moons that, like Earth's moon, are relatively large compared to their planets.
arlik [135]

Answer:

Unusually large moons form in giant impacts, which are relatively rare events

Explanation:

Solution:

- Finding large moons comparable in size to their planets result from impacts of two astro-bodies. The probability of such an event occurring is very rare.

- Even at the best luck, one moon can be made from the result of giant impact. While the probability of 6 planets having moons of comparable sizes is close to impossible. The transition from an undifferentiated cloud to a star system complete with planets and moons takes about 100 million years.

What is the primary source of energy for earths weather systems
PIT_PIT [208]
I believe the sun is the primary source of energy for Earth's weather system. The sun is the primary energy source for Earth's climate system which is the first set of essential principles of climate sciences. Additionally, it is the primary source that drives all weather events, including precipitation, hurricane and tornadoes. The sun drives the hydrologic cycle, and makes life on Earth possible.

Describe and give an example of mutualism.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Mutualism, commensalism, parasitism, competition, and predation.

Explanation:

mutualism- relationship between two or more organisms where both are benefited. Example-oxpecker with rhino/zebra. They eat bugs off of them which means that they are getting food, while the rhino/zebra are getting cleaned up with pest control.

commensalism- relationship between two organisms where one benefits and the other isn't benefited or harmed. EX- tree frogs use plants as protectioin.he frog is benefited, and the plant is neither harmed nor benefited. Remora fish have a disk on their heads that they use to attach themselves to larger animals for protection. The animals they attach to are neither harmed nor benefited.  

parasitism- in a relationship where an organism benefits at the expense of the other. (one is benefited while the other is harmed) ex- fleas and ticks that live on cats and dogs, tape worms that live in people and animals that eat the food which means that the people aren't getting the food or nutrition that they eat. lice, etc

competition- interaction within organisms/species in which both the organisms/species are harmed and is apart of natural selection. Examples may include two males fighting over a mate, animals competing over food, limited habitats that they are fighting over, territory, etc.

predation- the preying of one animal on another. It's where the predator hunts and eats another organism which is its prey. categorized within-(1) carnivory, (2) herbivory, (3) parasitism, and (4) mutualism. Each type of predation can by categorized based on whether or not it results in the death of the prey.ex- owls hunting mice, wolves hunting rabbits, lion hunting gazelle, etc.
