Answer:

Internal Combustion Engine

Explanation:

Most of the engine of the cars are based upon the principle of Internal combustion engine.

In this type of engines the fuel is mixed with air in definite proportion and then  it is fired with the help of spark inside the engine. Due to this spark large heat is released due to combustion of air fuel mixture.

This thermal energy is used to drive the all components of car. So here since the energy is released inside the engine due to combustion of air and fuel mixture inside the engine so it is known as Internal Combustion Engine.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

<h2>E. 3.95kW</h2>

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate of workdone.

Power = Workdone/time taken

Given Workdone = Force * distance

Power = Force * distance/time taken

Power = mgd/t (F = mg)

m = mass of the sand in kg

g = acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

d = vertical distance covered in metres

t = time taken in seconds

Given m = 2000kg, d = 12m, t = 1min = 60secs, g = 9.8m/s²

Power = 2000*9.8*12/60

Power = 3920Watts

Minimum rate of power that must be supplied to this machine is 3920Watts or 3.92kW

A rock is thrown upward from a bridge into a river below. The function f(t)=−16t2+44t+138 determines the height of the rock abov
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

a) 138 ft

b) 4.62 s

c) 1.375 s

d) 168.25 ft

Explanation:

The height of a rock (thrown from the top of a bridge) above the level of water surface as it varies with time when thrown is given in the question as

h = f(t) = -16t² + 44t + 138

with t in seconds, and h in feet

a) The bridge's height above the water.

At t=0 s, the rock is at the level of the Bridge's height.

At t = 0,

h = 0 + 0 + 138 = 138 ft

b) How many seconds after being thrown does the rock hit the water?

The rock hits the water surface when h = 0 ft. Solving,

h = f(t) = -16t² + 44t + 138 = 0

-16t² + 44t + 138 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation,

t = 4.62 s or t = -1.87 s

Since time cannot be negative,

t = 4.62 s

c) How many seconds after being thrown does the rock reach its maximum height above the water?

At maximum height or at the maximum of any function, the derivative of that function with respect to the independent variable is equal to 0.

At maximum height,

(dh/dt) = f'(t) = (df/dt) = 0

h = f(t) = -16t² + 44t + 138

(dh/dt) = (df/dt) = -32t + 44 = 0

32t = 44

t = (44/32)

t = 1.375 s

d) What is the rock's maximum height above the water?

The maximum height occurs at t = 1.375 s,

Substituting this for t in the height equation,

h = f(t) = -16t² + 44t + 138

At t = 1.375 s, h = maximum height = H

H = f(1.375) = -16(1.375²) + 44(1.375) + 138

H = 168.25 ft

Hope this Helps!!!
