A very simple solar engine absorbs heat through a collector. The collector loses some of the heat it absorbs by convection, and the remainder is passed through a heat engine to produce electricity. The heat engine operates with one-half the Carnot efficiency with its low-temperature side at ambient temperatureTb and its high temperature side at the steady-state temperature of the collector, Tc. Rate of heat loss from the collector = k (Tc -Tamb) where T1 is the temperature at which heat enters thesolar collector, and k is the overall heat transfer coefficient;all temperatures are absolute. What collector temperature produces the maximum rate at which work is produced for a given heat flux tothe collector?

Atank has a shape of a cone with a radius at the top of 2 m and a height of 5 m. the tank also has a 1 m spout at the top of the tank. the tank is filled with water up to a height of 2 m. find the work needed to pump all the water out the top of the spout. (use 9.8 m/s2 for g and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)
