A decrease in it's operating temperature would make a heat engine less efficient. This is because in order to operate, a heat engine needs to be hot and maintain that temperature.

What resistance must be connected in parallel with a 633-Ω resistor to produce an equivalent resistance of 205 Ω?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

303 Ω

Explanation:

Given

Represent the resistors with R1, R2 and RT

R1 = 633

RT = 205

Required

Determine R2

Since it's a parallel connection, it can be solved using.

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2

Substitute values for R1 and RT

1/205 = 1/633 + 1/R2

Collect Like Terms

1/R2 = 1/205 - 1/633

Take LCM

1/R2 = (633 - 205)/(205 * 633)

1/R2 = 428/129765

Take reciprocal of both sides

R2 = 129765/428

R2 = 303 --- approximated

Given the indices of refraction n1 and n2 of material 1 and material 2, respectively, rank these scenarios on the basis of the p
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

c>d>f=a>b>e

Explanation:

When a pair of medial has greater difference between the their individual refractive indices with respect to vacuum then it has a greater deviation between the refracted ray and the incident ray.

According to the Snell's law:

\rm refractive\ index\ (n)=\frac{speed\ of\ light\ in\ the\ incident\ medium}{speed\ of\ light\ in\ the\ refracted\ medium}

a)

n_1-n_2=1.33-1.00\\=0.33

b)

n_2-n_1=1.46-1.33

=0.23

c)

n_2-n_1=2.42-1.33\\=1.09

d)

n_2-n_1=1.46-1.00\\=0.46

e)

n_1-n_2=1.50-1.33\\=0.17

f)

n_2-n_1=1.33-1.00\\=0.33

c>d>f=a>b>e

Where do incident rays that are parallel to the principal axis converge to after reflecting off a concave mirror?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

At focus

Explanation:

A concave mirror is converging in nature. In a mirror, concave in nature, the rays which are parallel to the principal axis are supposed to be coming from very large distances or we assume the source to be placed at infinity for such rays which are parallel to the principal axis.

These rays,  parallel to the principal axis, coming from infinity, converges at the focus of the mirror concave in nature after reflecting from the concave mirror

Assume that a uniform magnetic field is directed into thispage. If an electron is released with an initial velocity directedfrom
Feliz [49]

Answer:

B). to the right

Explanation:

Since the direction of magnetic field is into the page

So here we know that

B = B_o(-\hat k)

now the velocity is from bottom to top

so we have

v = v_o \hat j

now the force on the moving charge is given as

\vec F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

now we have

\vec F = (-e)(v_o \hat j \times B_o(-\hat k))

\vec F = e v_o B \hat i

so force will be towards Right
