Answer:

a) The heat input per cycle is 2857.143 joules.

b) The temperature of the low-temperature reservoir is 49.655 °C.

Explanation:

a) The efficiency of the Carnot engine is defined by the following formula:

\eta_{th} = 1-\frac{T_{L}}{T_{H}} = 1 - \frac{Q_{L}}{Q_{H}} (1)

Where:

T_{L} - Low temperature reservoir, in Kelvin.

T_{H} - High temperature reservoir, in Kelvin.

Q_{L}  - Heat output, in joules.

Q_{H} - Heat input, in joules.

\eta_{th } - Engine efficiency, no unit.

If we know that \eta_{th} = 0.3 and Q_{L} = 2000\,J, the heat input of the Carnot engine is:

\eta_{th} = 1 - \frac{Q_{L}}{Q_{H}}

\frac{Q_{L}}{Q_{H}} = 1 - \eta_{th}

Q_{H} = \frac{Q_{L}}{1-\eta_{th}}

Q_{H} = \frac{2000\,J}{1-0.3}

Q_{H} = 2857.143\,J

The heat input per cycle is 2857.143 joules.

b) If we know that T_{H} = 461.15\,K and \eta_{th} = 0.3, then the temperature of the low-temperature reservoir:

\eta_{th} = 1 - \frac{T_{L}}{T_{H}}

\frac{T_{L}}{T_{H}} = 1 - \eta_{th}

T_{L} = T_{H}\cdot (1-\eta_{th})

T_{L} = (461.15\,K)\cdot (1-0.3)

T_{L} = 322.805\,K

T_{L} = 49.655\,^{\circ}C

The temperature of the low-temperature reservoir is 49.655 °C.

Hamish is studying what happens when he sends a sound
horrorfan [7]

Wave 3 will move the slowest, the statement could made about the data collected in Hamish's table

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

Sound waves require medium to pass from one to another. Depending upon the density of molecules in the medium, the speed of the sound waves can be determined. As we know that compression and rarefactions will be formed for propagation of sound waves when the waves collide with molecules of the medium.

So, if there is less molecules present in the medium or loosely packed molecules present in the medium with high mean free path length than the sound wave will be travelling slowly in that medium.

Thus, as we known that gas has the loosely packed molecules among the other states of matter, so wave 3 which is made to pass through the gas medium will be propagation at the lowest speed or will move the slowest compared to other 3 gases made to propagate in solid and liquid mediums.

The magnitude of the velocity vector of the car is ∣∣v→∣∣ = 78 ft/s. If the vector v→ forms an angle θ = 0.09 rad with the horiz
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

\vec{v} = (77.68~{\rm ft/s})\^i + (7.01~{\rm ft/s})\^j

Explanation:

The x- and y- components of the velocity vector can be written as following:

\vec{v}_x = ||\vec{v}||\cos(\theta)\^i

\vec{v}_y = ||\vec{v}||\sin(\theta)\^j

Since the angle θ and the magnitude of the velocity is given, the vector representation can be written as follows:

\vec{v} = 78\cos(0.09)\^i + 78\sin(0.09)\^j\\\vec{v} = (77.68~{\rm ft/s})\^i + (7.01~{\rm ft/s})\^j

kondaur [170]

Answer:

2) Denotative meaning of a word or Denotation.

3) Connotative meaning of a word or Connotation.

4) Ethics and Culture.

Explanation:

2) Which meaning of a word refers to exactly what it is?

The denotative meaning of a word represents the explicit or the exact meaning of that word. Also called the denotation of the word.

3) Which meaning of a word includes what the word may represent?

The Connotative meaningof a word means something suggested or implied by a word. Also called the Connotation of the word.

4) What is the term used for society's tried and true rules that guide life?

Ethics refer to the rules and standards that guide the conduct of individuals; especially members of a societal body.

Culture is the total way of life of a society.

Hence, ethics amd culture both serve as the society's tried and tested rules that guide life.

What causes the pressure that allows diamonds to form in the mantle?
IceJOKER [234]
Diamonds are supposed to formed about 90 miles below the surface of the earth in the mantle. Therefore, the weight of the earth overhead them produces the pressure to form the diamond. The rocks weight overhead the mantle outcomes in high pressure and diamonds essential high temperatures and pressure to form as of carbon.Diamonds form in the mantle in definite precincts where situations are right for them to do so. There just chances to be the right critical temperature-pressure-mineral environment in the mantle in definite areas for their formation.
