N = 1 - (QC/QH)

n = efficiency

QC = Cold Reservoir = 220 K
QH = Hot Reservoir = 680 K

n = 1 - (220 \div 680) (\div 10)\\ n = 1 - (22 \div 68) (\div 2) \\ n = 1 - (11 \div 34) \\ n = (34 - 11) \div 34 \\ n = 23 \div 34 \\ n = 0.676... \times 100\\ n = 67.6

Answer: The engine's efficiency is 67.6% .

the other person's right, it's E. 67.6% for plato users :)

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

(a) T = 10 s

(b) f = 0.1 Hz

(c) λ = 32 m

(d) v = 3.2 m/s

(e) Insufficient data

Explanation:

(a)

Time period is defined as the time interval required for one wave to pass. Therefore, the time period can be given as:

T = Period = Time Taken/No. of Waves

T = 50 s/5

<u>T = 10 s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Frequency is the reciprocal of time period:

f = frequency = 1/T

f = 1/10 s

<u>f = 0.1 Hz</u>

<u></u>

(c)

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs:

<u>λ = Wavelength = 32 m</u>

<u></u>

(d)

Speed of wave is given by the following formula:

Speed = v = fλ

v = (0.1 Hz)(32 m)

v = 3.2 m/s

(e)

Amplitude cannot be found with given data.

Can anybody help me solve this problem? Thank you so much!
ser-zykov [4K]
Please ignore my comment -- mass is not needed, here is how to solve it. pls do the math

at bottom box has only kinetic energy
ke = (1/2)mv^2
v = initial velocity
moving up until rest work done = Fs
F = kinetic fiction force = uN = umg x cos(a)
s = distance travel = h/sin(a)
h = height at top
a = slope angle
u = kinetic fiction
work = Fs = umgh x cot(a)
ke = work (use all ke to do work)
(1/2)mv^2 = umgh x cot(a)
u = (1/2)v^2 x tan (a) / gh

What is it that lives if it is fed, and dies if you give it a drink?
IceJOKER [234]
A fire because you feed it wood, it lives longer but if you give it a drink, water, then it dies.

790 kilometers/hour for a distance of 4,700 kilometers
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Time = (distance) / (average speed)

Time = (4,700 km) / (790 km/hr) = 5.9494 hours (rounded)

                                                  = 5hrs 56min 58 sec (rounded)

    (4,700 km) / (1.609344 km/mile) = 2,920 miles

Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

                      (2,929 miles) / 5.9494 hours) =  491 miles per hour

The diagram shows a person holding a bow and arrow. Which will most likely increase the kinetic energy in this system? a not rel
Fantom [35]

Answer:

b. Increasing the mass of the arrow.

Explanation:

The formula is K=1/2mv^2. Increasing the mass also increases the kinetic energy.
