Answer:

a) 6.4 kJ

b) 43.4 kJ

Explanation:

a)

Q_{a} = Heat absorbed = 37 kJ

β  = Coefficient of performance = 5.8

W = Work done

Heat absorbed is given as

Q_{a} = β W

37 = (5.8) W

W = 6.4 kJ

b)

Q  = work per cycle required

Q  = Q_{a} + W

Q  = 37 + 6.4

Q  = 43.4 kJ

Answer:

The sled needed a distance of 92.22 m and a time of 1.40 s to stop.

Explanation:

The relationship between velocities and time is described by this equation: v_f=v_0+a*t, where v_f is the final velocity, v_0 is the initial velocity, a the acceleration, and t is the time during such acceleration is applied.

Solving the equation for the time, and applying to the case: t=\frac{v_f-v_0}{a}=\frac{0\frac{m}{s}-282\frac{m}{s}  }{-201\frac{m}{s^2} }=1.40s, where v_f=0\frac{m}{s} because the sled is totally stopped, v_0=282\frac{m}{s} is the velocity of the sled before braking and, a=-201\frac{m}{s^2} is negative because the deceleration applied by the brakes.

In the other hand, the equation that describes the distance in term of velocities and acceleration:x_f-x_0=v_0*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2, where x_f-x_0 is the distance traveled, v_0 is the initial velocity, t the time of the process and, a is the acceleration of the process.

Then for this case the relationship becomes: x_f-x_0=282\frac{m}{s} *1.40s+\frac{1}{2}(-201\frac{m}{s})*(1.40s)^2=94.22m.

<u>Note that the acceleration is negative because is a braking process.</u>

uysha [10]

100000 Pascal

Explanation:

pressure= force/area

Max pressure= force/min area

so f=5

min area= 5×10^-5

5÷5*10^-5 = 100000pascal

You drive 6.00 km at 50.0 km/h and then another 6.00kmat 900 km/h Your average speed over
Cerrena [4.2K]

Explanation:

average speed = total distance travelled / total time travelled

time to travel the first 6km: 6 / 50 = 3/25 (h)

time to travel the next 6km: 6 / 90 = 1/15 (h)

[I think there's problem in the question 'cause 900km/h sounds impossible for normal person to travel in normal condition]

The total time: 3/25 + 1/15 = 14/75 (h)

Average speed over the 12 km drive will be:

\frac{12}{ \frac{14}{75} }  =  \frac{450}{7}  = 64.3 \: km{h}^{ - 1}

A car is traveling at 75 m/s. 50 seconds later it is traveling at 25 m/s. What is the car’s acceleration?
scoray [572]

Answer:

a = -1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Vi = 75 m/s

Vf = 25 m/s

t = 50 s

Plug those values into the following equation:

Vf = Vi + at

25 = 75 + 50a

---> a = -1 m/s^2
