You have to solve this by using the equations of motion:
u=3
v=0
s=2.5
a=?
v^2=u^2+2as
0=9+5s
Giving a=-1.8m/s^2

Then using the equation:
F=ma
F is the frictional force as there is no other force acting and its negative as its in the opposite direction to the direction of motion.

-F=25(-1.8)
F=45N

Then use the formula:
F=uR
Where u is the coefficient of friction, R is the normal force and F is the frictional force.

45=u(25g)
45=u(25*10)

Therefore, the coefficient of friction is 0.18

Hope that helps

A heat engine (Power Cycle) with a thermal efficiency of 35 percent efficiency produces 750 kJ of work. Heat transfer to the eng
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

a) The schematic illustrating is attached

b) The heat transfer to the heat engine is 2142.86 kJ, the heat transfer from the heat engine is 1392.86 kJ

c) The heat transfer to the heat engine is 1648.35 kJ, the heat transfer from the heat engine is 898.35 kJ

Explanation:

b) The heat transfer to the engine and the heat transfer from the engine to the air is:

Q_{1} =\frac{W}{n}

Where

W = 750 kJ

n = 35% = 0.25

Replacing:

Q_{1} =\frac{750}{0.35} =2142.86kJ

Q_{2} =Q_{1} -W=2142.86-750=1392.86kJ

c) The efficiency of Carnot engine is:

n=1-\frac{300K}{550K} =0.455

The heat transfer to the heat engine is:

Q_{1c} =\frac{750}{0.455} =1648.35kJ

The heat transfer from the heat engine is:

Q_{2c} =1648.35-750=898.35kJ
