Work done = heat in - heat out 
<span>= 9000 -6400 = 3600 J per cycle. </span>

<span>And the efficiency = work out / heat in </span>
<span>= 3600/9000 </span>
<span>= 0.4 or 40%

Sorry if this does not help.</span>

You push on a cart (18.0kg) at a 30 degree below horizontal angle. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the
podryga [215]

Given that force is applied at an angle of 30 degree below the horizontal

So let say force applied if F

now its two components are given as

F_x = Fcos30


F_y = Fsin30


Now the normal force on the block is given as

N = Fsin30 + mg

N = 0.5F + (18\times 9.8)

N = 0.5F + 176.4

now the friction force on the cart is given as

F_f = \mu N

F_f = 0.625(0.5F + 176.4)

F_f = 110.25 + 0.3125F

now if cart moves with constant speed then net force on cart must be zero

so now we have

F_f + F_x = 0

Fcos30 - (110.25 + 0.3125F) = 0

0.866F - 0.3125F = 110.25

F = 199.2 N

so the force must be 199.2 N

A meteoroid is moving towards a planet. It has mass m = 0.78×109 kg and speed v1 = 4.1×107 m/s at distance R1 = 2.8×107 m from t
wariber [46]

Answer:

PE=81.755\, J

Explanation:

Given that:

  • mass of meteoroid, m=7.8\times 10^8 \,kg
  • radial distance from the center of the planet, R= 2.8\times 10^7 m
  • mass of the planet, M=4.4\times 10^{25}\, kg

<u>For gravitational potential energy we have:</u>

PE=G\frac{M.m}{R}

substituting the respective values:

PE=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \frac{4.4\times 10^{25}\times 7.8\times 10^8}{2.8\times 10^7}

PE=81.755\, J
