A heat engine extracts 42. 53 kj from the hot reservior and exhausts 17. 69 kj into the cold reservior. what is the work done?

ludmilkaskok [199]

The answer is 24.84kJ.

We apply the expression for the work done by the heat engine is,

$W=E_{i n}-E_{o u t}$ . Putting all given values in the equation we get the final answer.

What is heat engine?

A heat engine is a machine that uses heat to generate power. It draws heat from a reservoir, uses that heat to produce work, such as move a piston or lift weights, and then releases that heat energy into the sink.
We are given:The heat input is $E_{i n}=42.53 \mathrm{~kJ}$ . The heat output is $E_{o u t}=17.69 \mathrm{~kJ}$ .
The expression for the work done by the heat engine is, $W=E_{i n}-E_{o u t}$
Substituting the given values in the above expression, we will get $W =42.53 \mathrm{~kJ}-17.69 \mathrm{~kJ}$ =24.84kJ.
Thus, the work done by the heat engine is 24.84kJ.

Are the two displacements equal? Explain your answer.

Sergeu [11.5K]

From the information given in the drawing, it's not possible
to tell whether the displacements are equal, because we
don't know what the vectors represent.

If the vectors are distances, then the displacements are not
equal, because the distance between the start and end points
are not equal.

If the vectors are speeds, then they don't tell us anything about
the distance between the start and end points, so we can't calculate
the displacements.

A 0.37-kg object connected to a light spring with a force constant of 23.2 N/m oscillates on a frictionless horizontal surface.

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

a) v = 31.67 cm / s , b) v = -29.36 cm / s , c) v= 29.36 cm/s, d) x = 3.46 cm

Explanation:

The angular velocity in a simple harmonic movement is

w = √ K / m

w = √ 23.2 / 0.37

w = 7,918 rad / s

a) the expression against the movement is

x = A cos (wt + Ф)

Speed is

v = dx / dt = - A w sin (wt + Ф)

The maximum speed occurs for cos = ± 1

v = A w

v = 4.0 7,918

v = 31.67 cm / s

b) as the object is released from rest

0 = -A w sin (0+ Фi)

sin Ф = 0

Ф = 0

The equation is

x = 4.0 cos (7,918 t)

v = -4.0 7,918 sin (7,918 t)

v = - 31.67 sin (7.918t)

Let's look for the time for a displacement of x = 1.5 cm, remember that the angles must be in radians

7,918 t = cos⁻¹ 1.5 / 4.0

t = 1,186 / 7,918

t = 0.1498 s

We look for speed

v = -31.67 sin (7,918 0.1498)

v = -29.36 cm / s

c) if the object passes the equilibrium equilibrium position again at this point the velocity has the same module, but the opposite sign

v = 29.36 cm / s

d) let's look for the time for the condition v = v_max / 2

31.67 / 2 = 31.67 sin ( 7,918 t)

7.918t = sin⁻¹ 0.5

t = 0.5236 / 7.918

t = 0.06613

With this time let's look for displacement

x = 4.0 cos (7,918 0.06613)

x = 3.46 cm

A circuit contains two devices that are connected in parallel. If the resistance of one of these devices is 12 ohms and the resi

finlep [7]

Answer

3 Ohms

Explanation

when the resistors are in series, the resistance in the circuit increases. For example, if two resistors, R1 and R2 are in series, the combined resistance is R1+R2.

When connected in parallel, the total resistance is the reciprocal of (1/R1 + 1/R2)

In this case the resistors are in parallel.

Total resistance = (1/12 + 1/4)⁻¹

= (1/3)⁻¹

= 3 Ohms
