Please help me! Some people have proposed a new way to build houses in areas that are likely to experience tsunamis. In this des

ign, a house wouldn’t have solid walls on all four sides. Instead, some of the wall areas would be replaced by substances that water can travel through quickly, as shown in the diagram. How would this design help a house survive a tsunami? What drawbacks might there be to this design?

Answer:

I think some drawbacks are that since there are no solid walls meaning it is weak and if murphy's law is in place, the water will destroy the substance. Tsunami waves also happen very quickly so even if the water can travel thru the substance quickly, it probably won't be quick enough. This design could help if the wave is smaller because less destruction would occur.

Explanation:

yeah

In one cycle, a heat engine takes in 1000 J of heat from a high-temperature reservoir, releases 600 J of heat to a lower-tempera
Talja [164]

Answer:

η = 40 %  

Explanation:

Given that

Qa ,Heat addition= 1000  J

Qr,Heat rejection= 600 J

Work done ,W= 400 J

We know that ,efficiency of a engine given as

\eta=\dfrac{W(net)}{Q(heat\ addition)}

Now by putting the values in the above equation ,then we get

\eta=\dfrac{400}{1000}

η = 0.4

The efficiency in percentage is given as

η = 0.4  x 100 %

η = 40 %

Therefore the answer will be 40%.

In about 5 billion years, at the end of its lifetime, our sun will end up as a white dwarf, having about the same mass as it doe
vitfil [10]
It is fine to use the equation given by Plitter, since we are told that the mass is about the same as it is now, and I seriously doubt the original question wants the student to go into relativistic effects, electron degeneracy pressure and magnetic effects that govern a real white dwarf star.
There is no need to make it unnecessarily complicated, when the question is set at high school level.  The question asks, given a particular radius, and a given mass, what will the density be (which in this case will be the average density).   To answer the question, one needs to know the mass of the sun (which is about 2×1030 Kg.  One needs to convert the diameter to a radius, and then calculate the spherical volume of the white dwarf.  Then one can use the formula given above, namely density=mass/volume
