In the first stage of a two-stage Carnot engine, energy is absorbed as heat Q1 at temperature T1 = 500 K, work W1 is done, and e

Nataly [62]

Answer:

Efficiency = 52%

Explanation:

Given:

First stage

heat absorbed, Q₁ at temperature T₁ = 500 K

Heat released, Q₂ at temperature T₂ = 430 K

and the work done is W₁

Second stage

Heat released, Q₂ at temperature T₂ = 430 K

Heat released, Q₃ at temperature T₃ = 240 K

and the work done is W₂

Total work done, W = W₁ + W₂

Now,

The efficiency is given as:

$\eta=\frac{\textup{Total\ work\ done}}{\textup{Energy\ provided}}$

Work done = change in heat

thus,

W₁ = Q₁ - Q₂

W₂ = Q₂ - Q₃

Thus,

$\eta=\frac{(Q_1-Q_2)\ +\ (Q_2-Q_3)}{Q_1}}$

$\eta=1-\frac{(Q_1-Q_3)}{Q_1}}$

$\eta=1-\frac{(Q_3)}{Q_1}}$

also,

$\frac{Q_1}{T_1}=\frac{Q_2}{T_2}=\frac{Q_3}{T_3}$

$\frac{T_3}{T_1}=\frac{Q_3}{Q_1}$

thus,

$\eta=1-\frac{(T_3)}{T_1}}$

thus,

$\eta=1-\frac{(240\ K)}{500\ K}}$

$\eta=0.52$

Efficiency = 52%

Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 356 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 478

klasskru [66]

Answer:

a) 2.5 m/s²

b) 6.12 m/s

Explanation:

Tension of rope = T = 356N

Weight of material = W = 478 N

Distance from the ground = s = 7.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.81 m/s²

Mass of material = m = 478/9.81 = 48.72

Final velocity before the bundle hits the ground = v

Initial velocity = u = 0

Acceleration experienced by the material when being lowered = a

a) W-T = ma

⇒478-356 = 48.72×a

$\Rightarrow \frac{122}{48.72} = a$

⇒a = 2.5 m/s²

∴ Acceleration achieved by the material is 2.5 m/s²

b) v²-u² = 2as

⇒v²-0 = 2×2.5×7.5

⇒v² = 37.5

⇒v = 6.12 m/s

∴ Velocity of the material before hitting the ground is 6.12 m/s

GarryVolchara [31]

Explanation:

Kepler’s third law states that for all objects orbiting a given body, the cube of the semimajor axis (A) is proportional to the square of the orbital period (P).

For each of our planets orbiting the Sun, the relationship between the orbital period and semimajor axis can be represented by the equation as:

$P^2=kA^3$

k is constant of proportionality

It is required to solve the above equation for k

$k=\dfrac{P^2}{A^3}$

The charge per unit length on a long, straight filament is -92.0 μC/m. Find the electric field 10.0 cm above the filament.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C towards the filament

Explanation:

Electric field due to a line charge is given by the expression

E = $[tex]\frac{\lambda}{2\pi\times\epsilon_0\times r}$ [/tex]

where λ is linear charge density of line charge , r is distance of given point from line charge and ε₀ is a constant called permittivity and whose value is

8.85 x 10⁻¹².

Putting the given values in the equation given above

E = $\frac{92\times10^{-6}}{2\times3.14\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times10^{-1}}$

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C
