Sphinxa [80]3 years ago

Answer:

A. internal

Explanation:

Engine is the name given to the equipment responsible for turning energy into motion of the vehicle in which it is installed. In the case of cars and other vehicles, the engine is called “internal combustion” because it transforms the burning of fuels in its interior in motion.

Regardless of engine type, everyone needs the same elements: air, fuel, and an explosion trigger. In Otto engines, this trigger is provided by the spark plug, which unleashes a spark inside the cylinder and generates the explosion. In diesel engines, such an explosion is generated by the compression of gases within the cylinder and the elevated temperature.

A. Internal. Most cars use that type of set up because it's more efficient, you can find more about it on this website, https://auto.howstuffworks.com/did-cars-ever-have-external-combustion-engines.htm

How does the science of heat transfer differ from the science of thermodynamics?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

The science of thermodynamics deals with the fundamental laws that guide how physical processes occur in relation with the energy transfer. When a system or process changes from one state of equilibrium to another, thermodynamics is interested with the amount of heat transfer during the process. On the other hand, the science of heat transfer is simply about the rate of heat and temperature distribution inside a system at a particular point in time.

A spherical balloon has a radius of 8.35 m and is filled with helium. how large a cargo can it lift, assuming that the skin and
rusak2 [61]

Assuming that the densities of the gases are:

density of air, ρ1 = 1.29 kg / m^3

density of helium, ρ2 = 0.179 kg / m^3

 

Since buoyant force and weight are two forces that are in opposite direction (buoyant force is up while weight is down), therefore equate the two:

buoyant force = weight

m g = (800 + m1) g

where m is the mass of buoyancy, g is gravity and m1 is the maximum mass of the cargo

m = 800 + m1

 

We know that mass is also expressed as:

m = ρ V

where ρ is density of gas and V is volume of the sphere

Since there are two interacting gases here, therefore m is:

m = (ρ1 – ρ2) V

 

Therefore:

(ρ1 – ρ2) V = 800 + m1

(1.29 – 0.179) (4π/3) (8.35m)^3 = 800 + m1

2709.33 = 800 + m1

m1 = 1,909.33 kg

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

- 1100 J heat flows out

Explanation:

dW = - 1600 J (as work is done on the gas)

dU = 500 J

dQ = ?

According to the first law of thermodynamics

dQ = dU + dW

dQ = 500 - 1600

dQ = - 1100 J

As heat is negative so it flows out.
