To reduce the drag coefficient and thus improve the fuel efficiency of cars,the design of side rearview mirrors has changed dram

atically in recent decades from asimple circular plate to a streamlined shape. Determine the amount of fuel and moneysaved per year as a result of replacing a 15-cm-diameter flat mirror by one with ahemispherical back. Assume the car is driven 25,000 km a year at an average speedof 95 km/hr. Take the density and price of gasoline to be 0.75 kg/L and $0.90/L,respectively; the heating value of gasoline to be 44,000 kJ/kg and the overall efficiencyof the engine to be 30 percent.

How much cornfield area would be required if you were to replace all the oil consumed in the United States with ethanol from cor
zaharov [31]

Answer:

2377.35 km

Explanation:

Given the following;

1. A cornfield is 1.5% efficient at converting radiant energy into stored chemical potential energy;

2. The conversion from corn to ethanol is 17% efficient;

3. A 1.2:1 ratio for farm equipment to energy production

4. A 50% growing season and,

5. 200 W/m2 solar insolation.

As per our assumptions,1.2/1 is the ratio for farm equipment to energy production,

So USA need around 45.45% (1/(1+1.2) replacement of fuel energy production which is nearly about = 0.4545*10^{20} J/year = \frac{0.4545*10^{20}}{365*24*3600}=1.44121*10^{12} J/sec

Growing season is only part of year ( Given = 50%),

Net efficiency = 1.5%*17%*50%=0.015*0.17*0.5=0.001275 = 0.1275%

Hence , Actual Energy replacement (Efficiency),

=\frac{1.44121*10^{12}}{0.001275} = 1.13*10^{15} J/sec=1.13*10^{15} W

As per assumption (5),

\because 200 W/m2 solar insolation arequired,

So USA required corn field area = 1.13*10^{15}/200 = 5.65*10^{12} m^{2}

Hence, length of each side of a square,

= (5.65*10^{12} )^{0.5} = 2377.35 km

private static Node head;

 

class Node

{

 int data;

 Node next;

 public Node()

 {data = 0; next = null;}

 {data = x; next =n;}

}

 

public void Displaylist(Node q)

 {if (q != null)

       {  

        System.out.println(q.data);

         Displaylist(q.next);

       }

 }

 

public void Buildlist()

  {Node q = new Node(0,null);

       head = q;

       String oneLine;

       try{BufferedReader indata = new

                 BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); // read data from terminals

                       System.out.println("Please enter a command or a line of text: ");  

          oneLine = indata.readLine();   // always need the following two lines to read data

         head.data = Integer.parseInt(oneLine);

         for (int i=1; i<=head.data; i++)

         {System.out.println("Please enter another command or a new line of text:");

               oneLine = indata.readLine();

               int num = Integer.parseInt(oneLine);

               Node p = new Node(num,null);

               q.next = p;

               q = p;}

       }catch(Exception e)

       { System.out.println("Error --" + e.toString());}

 }

public static void main(String[] args)

{Lineeditor mylist = new Lineeditor();

 mylist.Buildlist();

 mylist.Displaylist(head);

}
