Two trains, each having a speed of 28 km/h, are headed at each other on the same straight track. A bird that can fly 60 km/h fli

es off the front of one train when they are 66 km apart and heads directly for the other train. On reaching the other train it flies directly back to the first train, and so forth. (We have no idea why a bird would behave in this way.) What is the total distance the bird travels before the trains collide?

Answer:

The value is D =  70.71 \ km

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of each train is v =  28 \  km/h

The speed of the bird is v_1 =  60 \  km/h

The distance between the trains is d =  66 \  km

Generally the time taken before the collision occurs is mathematically represented as

t =  \frac{d}{2 * v}

=> t =  \frac{66 }{2 *  28}

=> t = 1.18 \  h

The total distance covered by the bird is mathematically represented as

D =  v_1 *  t

=>   D =  60 * 1.18

=>   D =  70.71 \ km

What is carnot engine.express the relation for its efficiency?​
patriot [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Carnot cycle is a special case of a thermodynamic cycle that produces an ideal gas and consists of two isothermal  processes and two adiabatic processes. This cycle is a theoretical solution given by Sadi Karnot to refine heat engines for their efficient use.

The formula for the coefficient of efficiency is:

η = (Q₁ - Q₂) / Q₁ = (T₁ - T₂) / T₁

Where Q₁ is is the amount of heat of the heater supplied to the working body and Q₂ is the amount of heat that the working body transfers to the refrigerator according to this T₁ is the temperature of the heater T₂ is the temperature of the refrigerator.

This formula provides a theoretical limit for the maximum value of the coefficient of efficiency of heat engines.

Jumping up before the elevator hits. After the cable snaps and the safety system fails, an elevator cab free-falls from a height
butalik [34]

Answer:

a) I = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

b) F = -451,520N

Explanation:

part a.

we know that:

I = P_f-P_i

where I is the impulse, P_f the final momentum and P_i the initial momentum.

so:

I = MV_f-MV_i

where M is the mass, V_f the final velocity and V_i the initial velocity.

Therefore, we have to find the initial velocity or the velocity of the passenger just before the collition.

now, we will use the law of the conservation of energy:

E_i=E_f

so:

mgh = \frac{1}{2}MV_i^2

where g is the gravity and h the altitude. So, replacing values, we get:

(85kg)(9.8m/s^2)(36m)= \frac{1}{2}(85kg)V_i^2

solving for V_i:

V_i = 26.56m/s

Then, replacing in the initial equation:

I = MV_f-MV_i

I = (85kg)(0m/s)-(85kg)(26.56m/s)

I = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

Then, the impulse is -2257.6 Kg*m/s, it is negative because it is upwards.

part b.

we know that:

Ft = I

where F is the average force, t is the time and I is the impulse. So, replacing values, we get:

F(0,005s) = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

solving for F:

F = -451520N

Finally, the force is -451,520N, it is negative because it is upwards.

A 300-kg bear grasping a vertical tree slides down at constant velocity. the friction force between the tree and the bear is:___
Nady [450]

3000 N of friction exists between the bear and the tree.

The bear goes down at a constant speed, thus there is no acceleration. The forces add up to zero. As a result, upward friction and downward weight result in zero  

i.e.,

F-mg=0

F = mg

F = (300 kg)/10 m/s^{2} (gravitational acceleration)

3000 N frictional force equals F.

How does friction force work?

  • Friction is the force that prevents two solid objects from rolling or sliding over one another. Even though frictional forces, such as the traction required to walk without slipping, may be advantageous, they can also be a significant hindrance to motion.

Between solid surfaces, there are three basic types of friction:

  • Rolling
  • Sliding.
  • Static.                                                                                                                   They are graded from strongest to weakest. Fluid friction happens when liquids or gasses are mixed together.
