Answer: Gas pedal

Explanation: Gas pedal is also known as accelerator pedal.

It is a trigger in an automobile which accelerates the process of fuel combustion in the engine. Automobiles consist of an Internal Combustion engine i.e. the fuel burns inside a closed chamber to generate the energy.

When the gas pedal is triggered the supply of the fuel to the engine increases and the rate of fuel combustion also increases which in turn produces greater power. And we know that power is the rate of doing work or the rate of energy transfer which causes the acceleration in the vehicle.

All of the controls can cause acceleration. The gas pedal and brake cause the car to change speed and the steering wheel can cause a change in velocity by changing its direction which is also acceleration.

What is the force on a 1,000 kilogram-elevator that is falling freely under the acceleration of gravity only?
likoan [24]

           Force = (mass) · (acceleration)

                     = (1,000 kg) · (9.8 m/s²)

                     =      9,800 newtons

A spring-loaded toy dart gun is shot to a height h. The same dart is shot straight up a second time from the same gun, but this
yarga [219]

Answer:

The height reached by the dart in the second shot is (4 H).

Explanation:

It is given that, a spring-loaded toy dart gun is shot to a height h. In this case, all the potential energy stored in the spring is converted to potential gravitational energy at the maximum height.

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=mgH........(1)

At the second shot, the spring is compressed twice as far before firing. x' = 2x

\dfrac{1}{2}kx'^2=mgh

\dfrac{1}{2}k(2x)^2=mgh.........(2)

h is the height reached by the dart in the second shot.

Dividing equation (1) and (2) as:

4=\dfrac{h}{H}

h = 4H

So, the height reached by the dart in the second shot is (4 H). Hence, this is the required solution.

Been a while since i've done a problem like this so i might be wrong in the "work" aspect

your system starts with 1200J

you add 700J of heat-
add 700 to 1200
1200+700

and your system does 400J of work
since work is being done by the system, the energy is leaving the system hence you subtract
1900-400

the result is then 1500
