Practical steam engines utilize 450ºc steam, which is later exhausted at 270ºc.
(a) what is the maximum efficiency that such a heat engine can have?
(b) since 270ºc steam is still quite hot, a second steam engine is sometimes operated using the exhaust of the first.
(c) what is the maximum efficiency of the second engine if its exhaust has a temperature of 150ºc?

In the circuit, the switch s has been open for a long time and r = 125 kohm. it is then suddenly closed. (a) determine the time constant before the switch is closed. s (b) determine the time constant after the switch is closed. _ s (c) let the switch be closed at t = 0. find the current in the switch as a function of time. (use t for time. express your answer in milliamps and seconds.) i(t) =_
