A truck with a mass of 1.5 x 103 kg accelerates to a speed of 18.0 m/s in 12.0 s from a dead stop. Assume that the force of resi

stance is a constant 400.0 N during the acceleration. What is the average power developed by the truckÍs engine?

There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer can be easily deduced.
Mass of the truck = <span>1.5 x 10^3 kg
Constant force of resistance = 400 N
Final Velocity = 18 m/s
Initial velocity = 0 m/s
Time taken = 12 s
Then
Acceleration = (Final velocity - initial velocity)/Time
                     = 18 /12
                     = 3/2
                     = 1.5 m/s^2
Then
Driving force = Mass * Acceleration
                     = 1.5 * 10^3 * 1.5
                     = 2250 N
So
Net Force = 2250 - 400
                 = 1850 N
Average power developed = 1850 * 18
                                           = 3.33 * 10^4 W</span>

Power = Net Force x velocity
Net force = driving force - force of resistance
Driving force = mass x acceleration
Acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time
Acceleration = (18 - 0) / 12 = 1.5 m/s²
Driving force = 1.5 x 10³ x 1.5
= 2250 N
Net force = 2250 - 400
= 1850
Power = 1850 x 18
= 3.33 x 10⁴ Watts

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

1.170*10^-3 m

3.23*10^-32 m

Explanation:

To solve this, we apply Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

the principle states that, "if we know everything about where a particle is located, then we know nothing about its momentum, and vice versa." it also can be interpreted as "if the uncertainty of the position is small, then the uncertainty of the momentum is large, and vice versa"

Δp * Δx = h/4π

m(e).Δv * Δx = h/4π

If we make Δx the subject of formula, by rearranging, we have

Δx = h / 4π * m(e).Δv

on substituting the values, we have

for the electron

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 9.11*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 5.67*10^-31

Δx = 1.170*10^-3 m

for the bullet

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 0.033*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 0.021

Δx = 3.23*10^-32 m

therefore, we can say that the lower limits are 1.170*10^-3 m for the electron and 3.23*10^-32 for the bullet

Consider a heat pump that operates on the reversed Carnot cycle with R-134a as the working fluid executed under the saturation d
Schach [20]

Answer:

Work out = 28.27 kJ/kg

Explanation:

For R-134a, from the saturated tables at 800 kPa, we get

h_{fg} = 171.82 kJ/kg

Therefore, at saturation pressure 140 kPa, saturation temperature is

T_{L} = -18.77°C = 254.23 K

At saturation pressure  800 kPa, the saturation temperature is

T_{H} = 31.31°C = 304.31 K

Now heat rejected will be same as enthalpy during vaporization since heat is rejected from saturated vapour state to saturated liquid state.

Thus, q_{reject} = h_{fg} = 171.82 kJ/kg

We know COP of heat pump

COP = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}

        = \frac{304.31}{304.31-254.23}

         = 6.076

Therefore, Work out put, W = \frac{q_{reject}}{COP}

                                              = 171.82 / 6.076

                                              = 28.27 kJ/kg
