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.

A tennis ball is released from a height of 4.0 m above the floor. After its third bounce off the floor, it reaches a height of 1
diamong [38]

Answer:

The percentage of its mechanical energy does the ball lose with each bounce is 23 %

Explanation:

Given data,

The tennis ball is released from the height, h = 4 m

After the third bounce it reaches height, h' = 183 cm

                                                                       = 1.83 m

The total mechanical energy of the ball is equal to its maximum P.E

                                      E = mgh

                                          = 4 mg

At height h', the P.E becomes

                                      E' = mgh'

                                           = 1.83 mg

The percentage of change in energy the ball retains to its original energy,

                                 \Delta E\%=\frac{1.83mg}{4mg}\times100\%

                                  ΔE % = 45 %

The ball retains only the 45% of its original energy after 3 bounces.

Therefore, the energy retains in each bounce is

                                   ∛ (0.45) = 0.77

The ball retains only the 77% of its original energy.

The energy lost to the floor is,

                                E = 100 - 77

                                   = 23 %

Hence, the percentage of its mechanical energy does the ball lose with each bounce is 23 %

A spring whose spring constant is 260 lbf/in has an initial force of 100 lbf acting on it. Determine the work, in Btu, required
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

A spring whose spring constant is 200 lbf/in has an initial force of 100 lbf acting on it. Determine the work, in Btu, required to compress it another 1 inch.

Step 1 of 4

The force at any point during the deflection of the spring is given by,

where is the initial force

and x is the deflection as measured from the point where the initial force occurred.

The work required to compress the spring is

Therefore work required to compress the spring is

The work required to compress the spring in Btu is calculated by

Where 1Btu =778

The work required to compress the spring,

GenaCL600 [577]

Why can you get a shock if you touch a metal doorknob after walking across a wool carpet is because you have gained neutrons; the doorknob has fewer electrons. This is further explained below.

<h3>What are electrons?</h3>

Electrons can be defined as a stable subatomic particles with a negative electrical charge that is found in all atoms and serves as the major carrier of electricity in solids.

In conclusion, You have an unbalanced charge, while the doorknob is neutral. you have gained neutrons; the doorknob has fewer electrons.
