Technician A says mechanical efficiency is a comparison between brake horsepower and indicated horsepower. Technician B says vol

umetric efficiency is a measurement of the amount of air-fuel mixture that actually enters the combustion chamber compared to the amount that could be drawn in. Who is correct?

Answer:Both are correct

Explanation:

Both are correct because

Mechanical efficiency is the dimensionless term which is the ratio of brake horsepower to the Indicated horse Power

Where brake power is the Power obtained at the crankshaft  and  

Indicated horsepower is the power obtained in the combustion chamber and this power is the loss in the form of friction.    

Volumetric efficiency is the ratio of actual fuel intake to the maximum air fuel that could be taken.

804 n of force are applied to a 51.7 kg. What is the acceleration that the object experiences?
Andreyy89

We can use Newton II here  (where F=m*a), that F is the net (or resultant) force on the object, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration the object experiences.

This means, in this case there would be no friction and absolutely no other force which gives a component in the plane of motion, only then can you assume that F=804N.

Now using F= m*a

804 = 51.7*a

Therefore a = 804/51.7 = 15.55 m/s²

A bug on the surface of a pond is observed to move up and down a total vertical distance of 6.5 cm , from the lowest to the high
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

factor that bug maximum KE change is 0.52284

Explanation:

given data

vertical distance = 6.5 cm

ripples decrease to =  4.7 cm

solution

We apply here formula for the KE of particle that executes the simple harmonic motion that is express as

KE = (0.5) × m × A² × ω²     .................1

and kinetic energy is  directly proportional to square of the amplitude.

so

\frac{KE2}{KE1} =  \frac{A2^2}{A1^2}      .............2

\frac{KE2}{KE1} = \frac{4.7^2}{6.5^2}

\frac{KE2}{KE1} = 0.52284

so factor that bug maximum KE change is 0.52284

Are temperature and thermal energy the same thing justify your answer
Sever21 [200]
Temperature is the measurement of the average energy of the particles in a solid, liquid or gas and thermal energy is the total energy in a set amount of solid, liquid or gas. Therefore, the temperature and thermal energy is not the same thing. They are both about the particle theory, which is a theory that all particles of solid, liquid or gas are always in motion. But the difference between the two is that temperature is the "measurement" of the particles in a solid, liquid or gas and the thermal energy is the total energy in a set amount of solid, liquid or gas.

A team of engineering students is testing their newly designed 200 kg raft in the pool where the diving team practices. The raft
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The water level rises more when the cube is located above the raft before submerging.

Explanation:

These kinds of problems are based on the principle of Archimedes, who says that by immersing a body in a volume of water, the initial water level will be increased, raising the water level. That is, the height in the container with water will rise in level. The difference between the new volume and the initial volume of the water will be the volume of the submerged body.

Now we have two moments when the steel cube is held by the raft and when it is at the bottom of the pool.

When the cube is at the bottom of the water we know that the volume will increase, and we can calculate this volume using the volume of the cube.

Vc = 0.45*0.45*0.45 = 0.0911 [m^3]

Now when a body floats it is because a balance is established in the densities, the density of the body and the density of the water.

Ro_{H2O}=R_{c+r}\\where:\\Ro_{H2O}= water density = 1000 [kg/m^3]\\Ro_{c+r}= combined density cube + raft [kg/m^3]

Density is given by:

Ro = m/V

where:

m= mass [kg]

V = volume [m^3]

The buoyancy force can be calculated using the following equation:

F_{B}=W=Ro_{H20}*g*Vs\\W = (200+730)*9.81\\W=9123.3[N]\\\\9123=1000*9.81*Vs\\Vs = 0.93 [m^3]

Vs > Vc, What it means is that the combined volume of the raft and the cube is greater than that of the cube at the bottom of the pool. Therefore the water level rises more when the cube is located above the raft before submerging.
