Mark the correct statement
a) "after a careful review of Carnot cycle, James watt was able to modify Thomas newcomen's engine and produce and efficient steam engine, the so called watt engine
b) Michael faraday is remembered because of his genuine invention of the first antenna like device to detect
c) Galileo in a "thought experiment" calculated that a cannon ball with an initial velocity of about 8.2 km/s will revolve around the earth
d) by discovery of the phlogiston Lavoisier revolutionized chemistry in the late 18th century
e) none of the above
(a) This statement is mostly correct.
James Watt improved upon Thomas Newcomen's steam engine by using the principles of the Carnot cycle, which is a theoretical model for an ideal heat engine. The result of this improvement was the Watt engine, which was more efficient than Newcomen's engine.
