a.

The heat the engine <em>extracts </em>from its heat source in each cycle is 3.79 × 10⁴ J

The efficiency of the Carnot engine, ε = W/Q where W = work done per cycle = 2.5 × 10⁴ J and Q = heat extracted in each cycle.

Making Q subject of the formula, we have

Q = W/ε

Since ε = 66% = 0.66, we substitute the values of the variables into the equation for Q.

So, Q = W/ε

Q = 2.5 × 10⁴ J/0.66

Q = 3.79 × 10⁴ J

So, the heat the engine <em>extracts </em>from its heat source in each cycle is 3.79 × 10⁴ J

b.

The temperature of its heat source is 588.76 °C

Also, the efficiency of the Carnot engine, ε = 1 - T/T' where T = temperature of exhaust heat = 20° C = 273 + 20 = 293 K and T' = temperature of heat source.

Making T' subject of the formula, we have

T' = T/(1 - ε)

Since ε = 66 % = 0.66

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

T' = T/(1 - ε)

T' = 293 K/(1 - 0.66)

T = 293 K/0.34

T = 861.76 K

We convert this to Celsius.

T(K) = T(°C) + 273

T(°C) = T(K) - 273

T(°C) = 861.76 - 273

T(°C) = 588.76 °C

So, the temperature of its heat source is 588.76 °C

A current of 16.0 mA is maintained in a single circular loop of 1.90 m circumference. A magnetic field of 0.790 T is directed pa
pav-90 [236]

Answer

given,

current (I) = 16 mA

circumference of the circular loop (S)= 1.90 m

Magnetic field (B)= 0.790 T

S = 2 π r

1.9 = 2 π r

r = 0.3024 m

a) magnetic moment of loop

    M= I A

    M=16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times r^2

   M=16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times 0.3024^2

   M=4.59 \times 10^{-3}\ A m^2

b)  torque exerted in the loop

 \tau = M\ B

 \tau = 4.59 \times 10^{-3}\times 0.79

 \tau = 3.63 \times 10^{-3} N.m

You drop a rock down a well that is 5.4 m deep. How long does it take the rock to hit the bottom of the well?
Natali5045456 [20]
Equation of motion:

y_{f}=y_{o}+v_{o}t+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

Since initial velocity is zero, the second term goes away:

y_{f}=y_{o}+0+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

y_{f}=y_{o}+\frac{1}{2} at^{2}

y_{f}-y_{o}= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

y_{f}-y_{o}=5.4m

5.4m= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

\frac{2(5.4m) }{a} = t^{2}

a = g = 9.81  \frac{m}{ s^{2}}

\frac{2(5.4m) }{9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2} } } = t^{2}

1.1 s^{2} = t^{2}\sqrt{1.1 s^{2}} =  \sqrt{t^{2}}

<u><em>t = 1.05s</em></u>

Pierre cycles at 4 miles per hour and travels a distance of 13 miles. How long
amm1812

Answer:

His journey took him 3 hours 15 minutes.

Explanation: 4 miles every hour. So 1 hr is equal to 4 miles, 2 hrs is equal to 8 miles, 3 hrs is equal to 12 miles. Now he just has 1 miles left, and since it takes him a hour to cycle 4 miles, 60 divided by 4 is 15. Therefore, 1 mile is equal to 15 minutes.

A rock thrown with speed 12.0 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 15.5 m bef
Dimas [21]

Supposing there's no air resistance, horizontal velocity is constant, which makes it very easy to solve for the amount of time that the rock was in the air.


Initial horizontal velocity is: <span>
cos(30 degrees) * 12m/s = 10.3923m/s 

15.5m / 10.3923m/s = 1.49s 

So the rock was in the air for 1.49 seconds. </span>

<span>

Now that we know that, we can use the following kinematics equation: 

d = v i * t + 1/2 * a * t^2 

Where d is the difference in y position, t is the time that the rock was in the air, and a is the vertical acceleration: -9.80m/s^2. </span>

<span>
Initial vertical velocity is sin(30 degrees) * 12m/s = 6 m/s 

So: 

d = 6 * 1.49 + (1/2) * (-9.80) * (1.49)^2 
d = 8.94 + -10.89</span>

d = -1.95<span>

<span>This means that the initial y position is 1.95 m higher than where the rock lands. </span></span>
