A heat pump is a device used to heat something, in this case water. Heat pump takes heat from colder object and transfers it to warmer object. This is opposite to <span>direction of spontaneous heat transfer which from warmer to colder object.
In this problem a room got colder while water got warmer. This is due to work done by heat pump. This is what is described in correct answer c).
a) is not correct because it shows </span>direction of spontaneous heat transfer. It also says that <span>Aleksei’s family purchased a new water heater and in description givne in a) it would mean that water got colder.
b) is not correct because if the </span><span>burning fuel increased the thermal energy in the air it would mean that this room got warmer than rest of house.
d) is not correct because burning fuel does not absorb </span><span>thermal energy. It releases it.</span>
Answer:
The power output of this engine is 
The the maximum (Carnot) efficiency is 
The actual efficiency of this engine is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The temperature of the hot reservoir is 
The temperature of the cold reservoir is 
The energy absorbed from the hot reservoir is 
The energy exhausts into cold reservoir is 
The power output is mathematically represented as

Where t is the time taken which we will assume to be 1 hour = 3600 s
W is the workdone which is mathematically represented as

substituting values

So


The Carnot efficiency is mathematically represented as



The actual efficiency is mathematically represented as

substituting values


Troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
Answer:
vₐ = v_c
Explanation:
To calculate the escape velocity let's use the conservation of energy
starting point. On the surface of the planet
Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R
final point. At a very distant point
Em_f = U = - G Mm / R₂
energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
½ m v_c² - G Mm / R = - G Mm / R₂
v_c² = 2 G M (1 /R - 1 /R₂)
if we consider the speed so that it reaches an infinite position R₂ = ∞
v_c =
now indicates that the mass and radius of the planet changes slightly
M ’= M + ΔM = M (
)
R ’= R + ΔR = R (
)
we substitute
vₐ =
let's use a serial expansion
√(1 ±x) = 1 ± ½ x +…
we substitute
vₐ = v_ c (
)
we make the product and keep the terms linear
vₐ = v_c
Answer:
The wavelength of the light is
.
Explanation:
Given that,
Distance between the slit centers d= 1.2 mm
Distance between constructive fringes 
Distance between fringe and screen D= 5 m
We need to calculate the wavelength
Using formula of width

Put the value into the formula




Hence, The wavelength of the light is
.
