By calculating thermal efficiency, the input energy is 10,000 joule.

We need to know about the thermal efficiency to solve this problem. Thermal efficiency is the ratio of work done by the machine to input energy. It can be determined as

η = W / Qinp

where η is thermal efficiency, W is work and Qinp is input energy.

From the question above, we know that:

η = 40%

W = 400 J

By substituting the following parameter, we get

η = W / Qinp

40% = 400 / Qinp

Qinp = 400 x 100/40

Qinp = 10,000 joule

Hence, the input energy of a car engine is 10,000 joule.

An incident ray strikes a boundary at a 72.5-degree angle, resulting in an angle of refraction of 39.6 degrees. The index of ref
Finger [1]
Refractive index is the ration of sin i to sin r where i is the incident angle and r is the refraction angle. 
Therefore, refractive index = sin 79.5 / sin 39.6
                                           = 1.542
The refractive index may be given by the ratio of refractive index of medium 2 to refractive index of medium 1. 
Therefore, 1.542 = n/1.0003
                            n = 1.5425
                               ≈ 1.54
Medium 2 is sodium chloride, refractive index of 1.54

A 2000 kg car slams on the brakes and slows down at a rate of -10 m/s2. How much force are the brakes applying?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

-20,000N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) x acceleration (m/s²)

So,

Force = 2000 x -10

= -20,000N (Newtons)

Does the under water pressure depend on the molecules of the air or what does it depend on
miskamm [114]

Answer:the pressure depends on gas and it will be half as much underwater

Explanation:

Water pressure increases with the depth of the water. This is because the weight of the column of water above the object increases. But a large, shallow pond may have more water in it than a small, deep pond.

This is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure, the force per unit area exerted by a liquid on an object. The deeper you go under the sea, the greater the pressure of the water pushing down on you. For every 33 feet (10.06 meters) you go down, the pressure increases by one atmosphere .
