Do cars get better gas mileage with clean air filters? Gas mileage for 10 cars with dirty air filters and clean air filters was

studied. Each car was tested with a clean air filter and once with a dirty air filter (with the order of the testing randomized). What type of study is this?

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes.

Proper maintenance of cars or any vehicle will add more life to it and increase the quality performance.

If dirty filters of cars is changed, the gas mileage will increase resulting into a better performance of cars.

Dirty air filters reduces the capacity for it to filter the air going into engine. If air filters are not changed for a longer time it results into misfire or trouble starting.

3) A driver in a 1000-kg car traveling at 24 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefticient of friction between
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A) 37 m

Explanation:

The car is moving of uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance it covers can be calculated by using the following SUVAT equation:

v^2 -u^2 = 2ad (1)

where

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity of the car

u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

d is the length of the skid

We need to find the acceleration first. We know that the force responsible for the (de)celeration is the force of friction, so:

F=ma=-\mu mg

where

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

\mu = 0.80 is the coefficient of friction

a is the deceleration of the car

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

The negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction is against the motion of the car, so the sign of the acceleration will be negative because the car is slowing down. From this equation, we find:

a=-\mu g

And we can substitute it into eq.(1) to find d:

v^2 -u^2 = 2(\-mu g) d\\d= \frac{v^2-u^2}{-2 \mu g}=\frac{0-(24 m/s)^2}{-2(0.80)(9.8 m/s^2)}=36.7 m \sim 37 m

a hot iron bar is placed 100ml 22C water. the water temperature rises to 32C. how much heat did the water gain and how much heat
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

  • Water gained: 10
  • Iron lost: -10

Explanation:

Given: Hot iron bar is placed 100ml 22C water, the water temperature rises to 32C

To find: How much heat the water gain, how much heat did the iron bar lost

Formula:Q = change T x C x M

Solve:

<u>How much heat water gained</u>

Initial heat = 22, then rose to 32. To find how much heat the water gained, simply subtract the current heat by the initial heat.

                                              32 - 22 = 10

The water gained 10 amounts of heat.

<u>How much heat Iron lost</u>

Current heat = 32, then dropped to 22. To find how much heat the Iron lost, simply subtract the initial heat by the current heat.

                                                   22 - 32 = -10

The Iron lost -10 amounts of water.

A child is sliding down a slide at the playgound. is mechanicalenergy conserved
Flauer [41]

No. Mechanical energy is not conserved.  There's quite a bit of friction on the slide.  So some of the potential energy is lost to heat on the way down, and the child arrives at the bottom with hot pants and less kinetic energy than you might expect.
