(c)

Answer to Problem 8P
The efficiency is remains same even after combining the two engine.
Explanation of Solution
Given info: The efficiency of the two engine is
The Carnot engine has the maximum efficiency and no engine can have the efficiency more than the Carnot engine’s efficiency.
If the two Carnot engine is combined together than the efficiency is remain same because the combined engine is also a Carnot engine. So there is no requirement to use two engines simultaneously instead of one engine to improve the net efficiency. The work output increases but on the other hand the heat supplied also increase.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the efficiency is remains same even after combining the two engine.

I have uploaded the picture of a video on YouTube. Thanks,arrow_forwardA spectra is a graph that has amplitude on the Y-axis and frequency on the X-axis. A harmonic spectra simply draws a vertical line at each frequency that a harmonic would be produced. The height of the line indicates the amplitude at which that harmonic would be produced. If the Fo of a sound is 125 Hz, please sketch a spectra (amplitude on the Y axis, frequency on the X axis) of the harmonic series up to the 4th harmonic.
