To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the thermal efficiency given in an engine of the Carnot cycle. Here we know that efficiency is given under the equation
Where,
Temperature of Cold Body
Temperature of Hot Body
= Efficiency
According to the statement our values are:
Replacing we have that
Therefore the temperature of the heat source is 300K
Answer:
the required revolution per hour is 28.6849
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
we know that the expression for the linear acceleration in terms of angular velocity is;
= rω²
ω² = / r
ω = √( / r )
where r is the radius of the cylinder
ω is the angular velocity
given that; the centripetal acceleration equal to the acceleration of gravity a = g = 9.8 m/s²
so, given that, diameter = 4.86 miles = 4.86 × 1609 = 7819.74 m
Radius r = Diameter / 2 = 7819.74 m / 2 = 3909.87 m
so we substitute
ω = √( 9.8 m/s² / 3909.87 m )
ω = √0.002506477 s²
ω = 0.0500647 ≈ 0.05 rad/s
we know that; 1 rad/s = 9.5493 revolution per minute
ω = 0.05 × 9.5493 RPM
ω = 0.478082 RPM
1 rpm = 60 rph
so
ω = 0.478082 × 60
ω = 28.6849 revolutions per hour
Therefore, the required revolution per hour is 28.6849
