A heat engine does 7190 J of work in each cycle while absorbing 13.8 kcal of heat from a high-temperature reservoir What is the efficiency in percent of this engine?

The efficiency of a heat engine is given by n = Wu / QH Where Wu - is the useful work (7190 J) QH - Heat taken from the hot reservoir (13,8 x 4184 J) 1 cal = 4,184 J => 1 kcal = 1000 cal = 4184J So n = 7190 / (13,8 x 4,184 x 1000) J and since you want that in percent multiply the result by 100.


What are they uses of static electricity?

Paint spraying cars: the paint particles are given a negative charge, and the car frame is given a positive charge, so the paint sprays out, and sicks to the car, and is attracted to all the hard- to reach areas Electrosatic precipitator; in coal fired power station theses are used to stop the dust particles reaching the atmosphere. Particles of gas pass through a charged grid, and becone charged. They then stick to plated either side of this grid, where they can be disposed of safely Photocopier; A charged drum is in the photocopier. Light is then shone through the paper, and where there is no print light hits the drum and it looses its charge. This leaves charge where there needs to be ink. Ink is the pulled onto the charged drum, and transfered onto paper Antistatic floors; to avoid static charges in hospital, the floors are made out of an antistatic material, so no charge can build up.
