How is a hybrid vehicle a combination of an electric car and a regular gas powered car?

Physics
1 answer:
wlad13 [49]3 years ago
7 0

Conventional vehicles use gasoline or diesel to power an internal combustion engine. Hybrids also use an internal combustion engine—and can be fueled like normal cars—but have an electric motor and battery, and can be partially or wholly powered by electricity.

By using both a conventional engine and electric motor, the best hybrids achieve significantly better fuel efficiency than their non-hybrid counterparts. They also pollute less and save drivers money through fuel savings.

The most advanced hybrids have larger batteries and can recharge their batteries from an outlet, allowing them to drive extended distances on electricity before switching to gasoline or diesel. Known as "plug-in hybrids," these cars can offer much-improved environmental performance and increased fuel savings by substituting grid electricity for gasoline.

7) Sound waves travel with a nominal speed of 340 m/s. Calculate the wavelengths of the following musical notes:
Oksana_A [137]

The wavelength for C1 note is 10.40 m, for A6 note is 0.193 m and for B7 note 0.086 m.

Answer:

Explanation:

Since, wavelength, frequency and speed of sound waves are related to each other, we can determine a single parameter with the help of other two parameters. So in this case, the frequency of different notes are given along with their common speed. So as the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength then in this case, the wavelength of the notes will be maximum for C1 and minimum for 3951.1 Hz.

Wavelength = Speed / Frequency

Wavelength for C1 note = 340 / 32.7 =10.40 m

Similarly, the wavelength for A6 note  = 340/1760=0.193 m

And, the wavelength for B7 note = 340/3951.1 = 0.086 m

So, the wavelength for C1 note is 10.40 m, for A6 note is 0.193 m and for B7 note 0.086 m.

An atomic nucleus is composed of A) protons. B) protons and neutrons. C) protons and electrons. D) protons, neutrons, and electr
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

B) protons and neutrons.

Explanation:

The protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of the atom and represent most of the 'mass' of the atom, that's their count that determine the 'mass' of an atom (like 12 for Carbon).

The electrons rotate around the nucleus and have a negligible mass.

How many days of a diet of 1910 large calories are equivalent to the gravitational energy change from sea level to the top of Mo
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

0.58 days is needed

Explanation:

Gravitational energy change from a height change equal to 8848 m for a mass of 53 kg is:

m*g*h = 53*9.81*8848 = 4600340.64 J = 4600.34 kJ

4.184 kJ are equivalent to 1 kcal, then:

4.184 kJ / 4600.34 kJ = 1 kcal / x kcal

x = 4600.34/4.184

x = 1099.5 kcal or large calories

The diet is 1910 kcal/day, then you need 1099.5/1910 = 0.58 days
