Jerome plays middle linebacker for South's varsity football team. In a game against cross-town rival North, he delivered a hit t

o North's 82-kg running back, changing his eastward velocity of 5.6 m/s into a westward velocity of 2.5 m/s.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of the running back, m = 82 kg

Initial speed of the running back, u = +5.6 m/s

Final speed of the running back, v = -2.5 m/s

It is required to find the momentum change of the running back. For this we will subtract final momentum to the initial momentum. So,

\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\\Delta p=82\times (-2.5-5.6)\\\\\Delta p=-664.2\ kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the running back is 664.2 m/s in west direction.

A cyclical heat engine, operating between temperatures of 450º C and 150º C produces 4.00 MJ of work on a heat transfer of 5.00
gogolik [260]

Answer:

(a) Heat transfer to the environment is: 1 MJ and (b) The efficiency of the engine is: 41.5%

Explanation:

Using the formula that relate heat and work from the thermodynamic theory as:W=Q=Q_{in}-Q_{out} solving to Q_out we get:Q_{out}=Q_{in}-W=5(MJ)-4(MJ)=1(MJ) this is the heat out of the cycle or engine, so it will be heat transfer to the environment. The thermal efficiency of a Carnot cycle gives us: n=1-\frac{T_{Low} }{T_{High}} where T_Low is the lowest cycle temperature and T_High the highest, we need to remember that a Carnot cycle depends only on the absolute temperatures, if you remember the convertion of K=°C+273.15 so T_Low=150+273.15=423.15 K and T_High=450+273.15=723.15K and replacing the values in the equation we get:n=1-\frac{423.15}{723.15} =0.415=41.5%

What is the direction of the centripetal force when applied to an object?
mihalych1998 [28]
For an object moving in a path that's a circle or a part of one,
the centripetal force acts in the direction toward the center of
the circle.  That direction is perpendicular to the way the object
is moving.

Technician a says that a defective spark plug wire can cause an engine miss. technician b says that a defective spark plug can c
larisa86 [58]

Technician a says that a defective spark plug wire can cause an engine misfire. Technician b says that a defective spark plug can cause an engine misfire. In this case, both technicians are correct.

Technician A is correct, because, Bad spark plug wires can interfere with the electrical current flowing to the engine, making it difficult for the engine to complete the combustion cycle. An incomplete combustion cycle can cause an engine to misfire, also

Technician B is correct because, Dirty spark plugs can cause misfires as well as burned engine oil can prevent the plugs from creating the sparks needed to ignite the fuel after it goes into the cylinder. Old spark plugs can simply break and fail to produce a spark. A broken spark plug is a simple fix, just replace it.
