An aircraft engine takes in 9000 j of heat and discards 6400 j each cycle. (a) what is the mechanical work output of the engine

during one cycle? (b) what is the thermal efficiency of the engine?

Work done = heat in - heat out 
<span>= 9000 -6400 = 3600 J per cycle. </span>

<span>And the efficiency = work out / heat in </span>
<span>= 3600/9000 </span>
<span>= 0.4 or 40%

Sorry if this does not help.</span>

MrRa [10]
Convection can best be observed as she blows the warm steam air that rises.

As the warm steam rises,  she forces displaces it with cool air from her mouth. Because the warm steam is less dense it rises and because the cool air is more dense, it displaces the warm air.

This scenario is an example of convection.

A woman is straining to lift a large crate, without success because it is too heavy. We denote the forces on the crate as follow
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Force P is acting upward

C is vertical contact Force

W is the weight of the crate

As P is unable to move the Block therefore Normal reaction keeps on acting on block

thus we can say that

P-W+C=0

P=W-C

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. the heat capacity of object a is
Harman [31]
Given:
Ca = 3Cb                      (1)
where
Ca =  heat capacity of object A
Cb =  heat capacity f object B

Also,
Ta = 2Tb                     (2)
where
Ta = initial temperature of object A
Tb = initial temperature of object B.

Let
Tf =  final equilibrium temperature of both objects,
Ma = mass of object A,
Mb = mass of object B.

Assuming that all heat exchange occurs exclusively between the two objects, then energy balance requires that
Ma*Ca*(Ta - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)           (3)

Substitute (1) and (2) into (3).
Ma*(3Cb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)
3(Ma/Mb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb

Define k = Ma/Mb, the ratio f the masses.
Then
3k(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb
Tf(1+3k) = Tb(1+6k)
Tf = [(1+6k)/(1+3k)]*Tb

Answer:
T_{f} =( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k} )T_{b}= \frac{1}{2}( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k})T_{a}
where
k= \frac{M_{a}}{M_{b}}

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Part a)

E = 3.66 eV

Part b)

\lambda = 508.5 nm

Explanation:

Part a)

change in the energy due to decay of photon is given as

E = h\nu

here we know that

\nu = 8.88 \times 10^{14} Hz

now we have

E = (6.6 \times 10^{-34})(8.88 \times 10^{14})

E = 5.86 \times 10^{-19} J

E = 3.66 eV

Part b)

While electron return to its ground state it will emit a photon of energy 2/3rd of the total energy

so we have

\Delta E = \frac{2}{3}(3.66 eV)

\Delta E = 2.44 eV

now to find the wavelength we have

\Delta E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

2.44 = \frac{1242}{\lambda}

\lambda = 508.5 nm
