1. a) If object A is in thermal equilibrium with object B, and object B is in thermal equilibrium with object C, then object A is also in thermal equilibrium with object C. True / False (2 points) b) The Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics establishes that temperature is a property that can be measured and compared between different systems. True / False (2 points) c) The Zeroth Law only applies to objects that are in direct contact with each other. True / False (2 points) d) Without the Zeroth Law, we would not be able to define temperature in a meaningful way. True / False (2 points) A heat engine absorbs 1000 J of heat from a hot reservoir and expels 700 J to a cold reservoir. What is the work done by the engine, and what is its efficiency? (7 points)

Business Ethics keep the increased rates quiet. "Greed is good", right? Eric Niles That is one way of looking at this dilemma. Some philosophers and economists say that businesses should solely focus on maximizing profits because: Businesses are not bound by the same moral and ethical rules as individuals. The "invisible hand" of the market will produce the most benefits for society as a whole. Submit

A process called ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) uses the heat energy stored in the Earth's oceans to generate electricity. Temperature difference between the surface layer of an ocean and its deep waters is utilized to extract work and produce electricity. 10-megawatt OTEC power plant is proposed to be built in yet unidentified tropical coastal region. The plant will be based on closed system. The primary objective of the project is to design a cold water pipe, which withdraws cool water from the deeper layers of the ocean. The cold water pipe is supposed to be suspended from the OTEC platform. To successfully complete the project it is required to do background research and estimate reasonable efficiency of the power plant, by comparing the proposed OTEC plant against competitive technologies. Based on the background research a suitable temperature gradient should be obtained such that the designer (i.e. you) can propose how deep the cold water pipe should be suspended into the ocean. Further, preliminary analysis to determine flow rate of the cool water required to run the power plant is needed. Appropriate analysis should take into account most of the challenges related to the design of the OTEC cold water pipes including material selection, oscillatory instabilities and hydrodynamic forces. A credible statement backed by analysis should be presented that the proposed design would produce anticipated cool water flow rates and not experience catastrophic failure. Submitted work is supposed to consist of two parts: (1) memo, which provides background and provides details of the design. Narrative and structure of the memo should be similar to a scientific publication. (2) Analysis, which is supposed to provide evidence for the claims made in the memo.

11. Consider a molecule with an orbital that has the wavefunction $\psi = N(0.145A + 0.844B)$. First, normalize the wavefunction by finding the value of N. After determining N, find a linear combination of the orbitals A and B that has zero overlap with this wavefunction (in other words, find a wavefunction that is orthogonal to $N(0.145A + 0.844B)$. Hint, start with the general form of this orthogonal wavefunction $\psi_{orthog} = aA + bB$ and determine a and b.

Hi, I need help with this assignment. I have already chosen the media, and you just have to analyze it using the questions from the media triangle. Your responses can be in point form. Here are the questions: Media Text Audience Production In what ways does this text tell a story? Does it connect to a larger story? What type or category of story is it? Does it follow a formula? What codes and conventions are used? What are the characters like? Are they realistic? Are they stereotypes? Is there an expected running time for it? How do the characters relate to each other in terms of power, age, gender, race, and class? What are the values and ideology of the characters? To what extent do I share these beliefs? How does this text appeal to me? What things do I like and dislike? Who is the intended target audience? How and why does this text appeal to its audience? In what different ways do people use or consume this text? How could I change the text to make it more enjoyable? Where does this text come from? Who created it? Who owns it? How is this text distributed or sold to the public? Who profits? How was the text made? What production techniques were used? What rules and laws affect this text? Are there any copyright or trademarks used to protect certain words or products? How could I produce a similar text? Not all of these questions will apply to the media text you chose, but be sure to answer all of those that can be applied to your specific media text. Here is my media: (This is the image link of the athlete Bolt if you can't see the picture here is the link): https://www.pinterest.com/pin/780178335420613141/
