What is the unit of mu (m) in the equation of Ffriction=miu F formal explan​

Physics
1 answer:
erica [24]3 years ago
8 0

Both F's are forces, so µ must be unitless/dimensionless.

F[friction] = µ F[normal]

Or, more explicitly in terms of the units:

(Newtons) = (constant) (Newtons)

An inventor claims to have invented a heat engine that receives 750kJ of heat from a source at 400K and produces 250kJ of net wo
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

the claim is not valid or reasonable.

Explanation:

In order to test the claim we will find the maximum and actual efficiencies. maximum efficiency of a heat engine can be found as:

η(max) = 1 - T₁/T₂

where,

η(max) = maximum efficiency = ?

T₁ = Sink Temperature = 300 K

T₂ = Source Temperature = 400 K

Therefore,

η(max) = 1 - 300 K/400 K

η(max) = 0.25 = 25%

Now, we calculate the actual frequency of the engine:

η = W/Q

where,

W = Net Work = 250 KJ

Q = Heat Received = 750 KJ

Therefore,

η = 250 KJ/750 KJ

η = 0.333 = 33.3 %

η > η(max)

The actual efficiency of a heat engine can never be greater than its Carnot efficiency or the maximum efficiency.

<u>Therefore, the claim is not valid or reasonable.</u>

What type of charge is acquired when a rubber is rubbed with a fur
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The triboelectic charging process (a.k.a., charging by friction) results in a transfer of electrons between the two objects that are rubbed together. Rubber has a much greater attraction for electrons than animal fur.

Our eyes can see light with an angular resolution of about 1’—equivalent to about a third of a millimeter at arm’s length. Suppo
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

We would not be able to make our way around the earth's surface, to read, to sculpt or to create technology because we cannot see!

Explanation:

The minimum angular separation that can be distinguished by an eye gives the angular resolution of the eye.

Given that the Angular resolution with infrared radiation is = 1.0^0 equal to 60'

This resolution is very much greater than that of the eye (1')

The angular resolution that our eyes can see is about  \frac{1}{3}mm  at arms length

Angular resolution of infrared = \frac{1}{3} * 60 = 20mm  at arms length

We therefore cannot read, sculpt or create technology because we cannot see.
