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.

Starting from rest, a dragster travels a straight 1/4 mi racetrack in 6.70 s with constant acceleration. What is its velocity wh
Airida [17]
<h2>Its velocity when it crosses the finish line is 119.40 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = ?

        Time, t = 6.70 s      

        Displacement, s = 1/4 mi = 0.25 mi = 400 m

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      400 = 0 x 6.70 + 0.5 x a x 6.70²

                      a = 17.82 m/s²

     Now we have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

     Final velocity, v = ?

     Time, t = 6.7 s

     Acceleration, a = 17.82 m/s²

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      v = 0 + 17.82 x 6.7

                      v = 119.40 m/s

Its velocity when it crosses the finish line is 119.40 m/s

Explanation:

a. Average speed = distance / time

= 100 m / 70 s

= 1.43 m/s

b. Average displacement = displacement / time

= 0 m / 70 s

= 0 m/s

Distance is the length of the path traveled.  Displacement is the difference between the final position and initial position.
