Two identical blocks are heated to different temperatures. The blocks are placed so that they touch, and heat begins to flow bet
baherus [9]

The pair of blocks is insulated, so no energy escapes. The pair of temperatures possible is  95 +95 temperature blocks.

<h3>What is thermal equilibrium?</h3>

When two objects are in direct contact and transfer heat through conduction. When the both object attain same temperature after sometime, they are called in thermal equilibrium.

Two identical blocks are heated to different temperatures. The blocks are placed so that they touch, and heat begins to flow between blocks. The heat will continue to until and unless they have same temperatures. After they being isolated, the temperature of both will be same and no heat is transferred outside.

Thus, the pair of temperatures possible is  95 +95 temperature blocks.

How does seismic waves cause earthquakes?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Seismic waves cause Earthquakes by shaking the ground aggressively and dangerously. These waves are usually calculated on a seismograph to calculate how hard the earthquake hit that area. A transform Boundary creates the tension when the tectonic plates gets stuck. It stays stuck for a long period of time. Then, at one point, the tectonic plates become unstuck which releases the tension into waves which are called seismic waves. Hope I answered you question.

A real heat engine operates between temperatures TcTcT_c and ThThT_h. During a certain time, an amount QcQcQ_c of heat is releas
Nookie1986 [14]

The maximum amount of work performed is

W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C

Explanation:

The efficiency of a real heat engine is given by the equation:

\eta = 1-\frac{T_C}{T_H} (1)

where

T_C is the temperature of the cold reservoir

T_H is the temperature of the hot reservoir

However, the efficiency of a real heat engine can be also written as:

\eta = \frac{W_{max}}{Q_H}

where

W_{max} is the maximum work done

Q_H is the heat absorbed from the hot reservoir

Q_H can be written as

Q_H=W_{max}+Q_C

where

Q_Cis the heat released to the cold reservoir

So the previous equation can be also written as

\eta=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q_C} (2)

By combining eq.(1) and (2) we get

1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q}

And re-arranging the equation and solving for W_{max}, we find

W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C

One circuit contains only an ac generator and a resistor, and the rms current in this circuit is IR. Another circuit contains on
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

1/3 times.

Explanation:

Let V₀ be the peak voltage .

IR ( rms )  = ( V₀ / √2 R )

R is value of resistance

IC =  ( V₀ ωC / √2  )

( 1 / ωC is reactance of capacitance in ac circuit  )

\frac{I_R}{I_C} =\frac{\frac{V_0}{\sqrt{2}R } }{\frac{V_0\omega C}{\sqrt{2} } }

= \frac{I_R}{I_C} = \frac{1}{\omega C R}

When frequency is tripled angular frequency will also be tripled

hence the ratio \frac{I_R}{I_C} becomes 1/3 times.
