The mercury thermometer operates on the principle of dilation.

<h3>What is the working principle of a mercury thermometer?</h3>

Like all liquids, mercury expands as it is heated, so it moves along the thermometer tube, determining the temperature. Its expansion rate is calibrated on the glass scale, expansion is linear and can be accurately calibrated.

Mercury allows it to be used in a thermometer by its liquid expansion fast enough to measure something so that it still maintains an accurate measurement.

6–23 an automobile engine consumes fuel at a rate of 22 l/h and delivers 55 kw of power to the wheels. if the fuel has a heating
Anna007 [38]

Explanation & answer:

Given:

Fuel consumption, C = 22 L/h

Specific gravity = 0.8

output power, P  =  55 kW

heating value, H = 44,000 kJ/kg

Solution:

Calculate energy intake

E = C*P*H

= (22 L/h) / (3600 s/h) * (1000 mL/L) * (0.8 g/mL) * (44000 kJ/kg)

= (22/3600)*1000*0.8*44000 j/s

= 215111.1 j/s

Calculate output power

P = 55 kW

= 55000 j/s

Efficiency

= output / input

= P/E

=55000 / 215111.1

= 0.2557

= 25.6% to 1 decimal place.
