An engine manufacturer makes the claim that the engine they have developed will, on each cycle take 100 J of heat out of boiling

water at 100 °C, do mechanical work of 80J, and exhaust 20 J of heat at 10 °C.
What, if anything, is wrong with this claim?

A) There is nothing wrong with this claim because 100 J = 20 J + 80 J.
B) This engine violates the first law of thermodynamics because 100 J + 20 J ≠ 80 J.
C) An engine would operate by taking in heat at the lower temperature and exhausting heat at a higher temperature.
D) The heat exhausted must always be greater than the work done according to the second law of thermodynamics.
E) The efficiency of this engine is greater than the ideal Carnot cycle efficiency.

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat absorbed, QH = 100 J

Heat exhausted, Qc = 20 J

Mechanical work, W = 80 J

Temperature of hot surface, TH = 100°C = 373 K

Temperature of cold surface, Tc = 10°C = 283 K

According to the carnot's engine

TH/ Tc = 373 / 283 = 1.32

And QH / Qc = 100 / 20 = 5

They are not equal to each other, so the engine is not possible.

Option (D)

A 30.0-kg child sits on one end of a long uniform beam having a mass of 20.0 kg, and a 40.0-kg child sits on the other end. The
qaws [65]

let the length of the beam be "L"

from the diagram

AD = length of beam = L

AC = CD = AD/2 = L/2

BC = AC - AB = (L/2) - 1.10

BD = AD - AB = L - 1.10

m = mass of beam = 20 kg

m₁ = mass of child on left end = 30 kg

m₂ = mass of child on right end = 40 kg

using equilibrium of torque about B

(m₁ g) (AB) = (mg) (BC) + (m₂ g) (BD)

30 (1.10) = (20) ((L/2) - 1.10) + (40) (L - 1.10)

L = 1.98 m

The correct answer is <span>3) K_f =  \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 + mgh.
</span>
In fact, the total energy of the rock when it <span>leaves the thrower's hand is the sum of the gravitational potential energy U and of the initial kinetic energy K:
</span>E=U_i+K_i=mgh +  \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2
<span>As the rock falls down, its height h from the ground decreases, eventually reaching zero just before hitting the ground. This means that U, the potential energy just before hitting the ground, is zero, and the total final energy is just kinetic energy: 
</span>E=K_f<span>
But for the law of conservation of energy, the total final energy must be equal to the tinitial energy, so E is always the same. Therefore, the final kinetic energy must be

Explain the process of ionic bond formation between K( potassium a metal) and Br(bromine a nonmetal)
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Potassium belongs to group IA of the elements. This means that it will give up one of its electrons to form the cation K+. Opposite to that is bromine in which it accepts one electrons to form the anion Br-. The binding of these elements will form KBr and is formed from transfer of electron from one element to the other. This is the mechanism of ionic bond formation.

A cylinder rotating about its axis with a constant angular acceleration of 1.6 rad/s2 starts from rest at t = 0. At the instant
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The magnitude of the total linear acceleration is 0.27 m/s²

b. 0.27 m/s²

Explanation:

The total linear acceleration is the vector sum of the tangential acceleration and radial acceleration.

The radial acceleration is given by;

a_t = ar

where;

a is the angular acceleration and

r is the radius of the circular path

a_t = ar\\\\a_t = 1.6 *0.13\\\\a_t = 0.208 \ m/s^2

Determine time of the rotation;

\theta = \frac{1}{2} at^2\\\\0.4 = \frac{1}{2} (1.6)t^2\\\\t^2 = 0.5\\\\t = \sqrt{0.5} \\\\t = 0.707 \ s\\\\

Determine angular velocity

ω = at

ω = 1.6 x 0.707

ω = 1.131 rad/s

Now, determine the radial acceleration

a_r = \omega ^2r\\\\a_r = 1.131^2 (0.13)\\\\a_r = 0.166 \ m/s^2

The magnitude of total linear acceleration is given by;

a = \sqrt{a_t^2 + a_r^2} \\\\a = \sqrt{0.208^2 + 0.166^2} \\\\a = 0.266 \ m/s^2\\\\a = 0.27  \ m/s^2

Therefore, the magnitude of the total linear acceleration is 0.27 m/s²

b. 0.27 m/s²

Suppose that sunlight is incident upon both a pair of reading glasses and a pair of sunglasses. Which pair would you expect to b
Ainat [17]

Answer: the pair of sunglasses

Explanation:

A good pair of sunglasses are composed of abosorbent lenses that filter the sunlight that affects the eyes retina, especially ultraviolet (UV). So, these sunglasses are used to reduce the amount of light or radiant energy transmitted.

On the other hand, normal reading glasses (in which the lens glass has not been treated to filter ultraviolet sunlight) will let UV rays pass through.

Therefore, if both glasses are exposed to sunlight, the sunglasses are expected to be warmer by absorbing that radiant energy and preventing it from reaching the eyes.
