Answer:

58.5 %

Explanation:

temperature of hot source, T1 = 325 K

temperature of cold source, T2 = 135 K

The efficiency of a heat engine is defined as the ratio of work done to the input energy.

the formula to find the efficiency of heat engine is given by

η = 1 - T2 / T1

η = 1 - 135 / 325

η = 0.585

η = 58.5 %

a missile is moving 1810 m/s at a 20.0 degree angle. it needs to hit a target 19,500 m away in a 32.0 degree direction in 9.20 s
Ket [755]

Answer:

112 m/s², 79.1°

Explanation:

In the x direction, given:

x₀ = 0 m

x = 19,500 cos 32.0° m

v₀ = 1810 cos 20.0° m/s

t = 9.20 s

Find: a

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19,500 cos 32.0° = 0 + (1810 cos 20.0°) (9.20) + ½ a (9.20)²

a = 21.01 m/s²

In the y direction, given:

y₀ = 0 m

y = 19,500 sin 32.0° m

v₀ = 1810 sin 20.0° m/s

t = 9.20 s

Find: a

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

19,500 sin 32.0° = 0 + (1810 sin 20.0°) (9.20) + ½ a (9.20)²

a = 109.6 m/s²

The magnitude of the acceleration is:

a² = ax² + ay²

a² = (21.01)² + (109.6)²

a = 112 m/s²

And the direction is:

θ = atan(ay / ax)

θ = atan(109.6 / 21.01)

θ = 79.1°
