Given: Heat Qout means useful work = 2800 J

           Heat Qin = 8900 J

Required; Efficiency = ?

Formula: Efficiency = Qout/Qin = x 100%

                               = 2800 J/8900 J = 0.3146 X 100 %

               Efficiency = 31.46%

How do I know if i’m doing number 2 right?
Ksju [112]

We are given an object that is speeding up on a level ground.

Let's remember that the gravitational energy depends on the change in height, therefore, if the object is not changing its height it means that the gravitational energy remains constant.

The kinetic energy depends on the velocity. If the velocity is increasing this means that the kinetic energy is also increasing.

Now, every change in velocity requires acceleration and acceleration requires a force. The force and the distance that the object moves are equivalent to the work that is transferred to the object and therefore, the change in kinetic energy. This means that the total energy of the system increases as work is transferred to the mass.

We have that the total energy of the system increases in the form of kinetic energy and that the gravitational potential energy remains constant. Therefore, the diagrams should look like pie charts that grow but the area of the segment of the potential energy stays the same. It should look similar to the following.

Find the momentum of a 25 kg remote
telo118 [61]

Answer:

100

Explanation:

Momentum (P) = Mass (M) × Velocity (V)

Momentum = 25kg × 4.0m/s

Momentum = 100kg m/s

Why is it important that two different metals are used in building an electrochemic<br> cell?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

They need a galvanic difference. Or saying that less technically,  they need to have different electron attraction, so that one can collect electrons (oxidation/reduction)  and flow current from the other.  :)
