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.
This would be force. Acceleration is increasing the speed in an object and velocity is how fast an object is going. Also, inertia basically says that an object will stay at rest or in motion unless an outside force acts on it. So, for example, a ball will stay in the air unless gravity acts on it and pulls it down. By definition, force is any action, unopposed (or by itself without any other forces that would do the opposite) will change the motion of an object, so this definitely makes the most sense for the question. Hope this helps!
Answer:
64.945 miles per hour
Explanation:
Since the frequency of sound heard is higher than actual frequency, the ambulance is moving towards you!
The frequency of sound waves as heard from a distance for a sound wave coming towards one at v₀ m/s and whose real frequency is f₀ is given by
+f = f₀/[1 - (v₀/v)]
+f = frequency of sound as heard from the distance away = 8.61 KHz
f₀ = real frequency of sound = 7.87 KHz
v₀ = velocity at which the sound source is moving towards the reference point = ?
v = velocity of sound waves = 343 m/s
8.61 = 7.87/(1 - (v₀/v))
1 - (v₀/343) = 0.9141
v₀/343 = 1 - 0.9141 = 0.0859
v₀ = 343 × 0.0859 = 29.48 m/s = 64.945 miles per hour
