What is the formula for calculating the efficiency of a heat engine? Answers:

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, what do you need to do

Alexxandr [17]

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, then you need to do extra work than the earlier

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

Work Done = Force * Displacement

For example, let us suppose a force of 10 N is used to displace an object by a displacement of 5 m then the work done on the object can be calculated by the above-mentioned formula

work done = 10 N ×5 m

=50 N m

Thus, when an object's mass is increased and it is desired to move it a certain distance, more work must be done than previously.

A ball is dropped from an aircraft flying at an altitude of 8,848 meters assuming gravity is 9.8m/s what is the total amount of

Dafna11 [192]

In this question, you're determining the time (t) taken for an object to fall from a distance (d).

The equation to represent this is:
Time equals the square root of 2 times the distance divided by the gravitational force of earth.
In equation from it looks like this (there isn't an icon to represent square root so just pretend like there's a square root there):
t = 2d/g (square-rooted)

d = 8,848m and g = 9.8m/s

Now plug in the information we have:
t = 2 x 8,848m/9.8m/s (square-rooted)

The first step is to multiply 2 times 8,848m:
t = 17,696m/9.8m/s (square-rooted)

Now divide 9.8m/s by 17,696m (note that the two m's (meters) cancels out leaving you with only s (seconds):
t = 1805.72s (square-rooted)

Now for the last step, find the square root of the remaining number:
t = 42.5s

So the time it takes the ball to drop from the height (distance) of 8,848 meters, and falling with the gravitational pull of 9.8 meters per second is 42.5 seconds.

I hope this helps :)

A charged paint is spread in a very thin uniform layer over the surface of a plastic sphere of diameter 13.0 cm , giving it a ch

Leokris [45]

a) Electric field inside the paint layer: zero

b) Electric field just outside the paint layer: $-3.62\cdot 10^7 N/C$

c) Electric field 8.00 cm outside the paint layer: $-7.27\cdot 10^7 N/C$

Explanation:

a)

We can find the electric field inside the paint layer by applying Gauss Law: the total flux of the electric field through a gaussian surface is equal to the charge contained within the surface divided by the vacuum permittivity, mathematically:

$\int EdS = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

where

E is the electric field

dS is the element of surface

q is the charge within the gaussian surface

$\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m$ is the vacuum permittivity

Here we want to find the electric field just inside the paint layer, so we take a sphere of radius $r$ as Gaussian surface, where

R = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m is the radius of the plastic sphere (half the diameter)

By taking the sphere of radius r, we note that the net charge inside this sphere is zero, therefore

$q=0$

So we have

$\int E dS=0$

which means that the electric field inside the paint layer is zero.

b)

Now we want to find the electric field just outside the paint layer: therefore, we take a Gaussian sphere of radius

$r=R=0.065 m$

The area of the surface is

$A=4\pi R^2$

And since the electric field is perpendicular to the surface at any point, Gauss Law becomes

$E\cdot 4\pi R^2 = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

The charge included within the sphere in this case is the charge on the paint layer, therefore

$q=-17.0\mu C=-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

So, the electric field is:

$E=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 R^2}=\frac{-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}}{4\pi(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.065)^2}=-3.62\cdot 10^7 N/C$

where the negative sign means the direction of the field is inward, since the charge is negative.

c)

Here we want to calculate the electric field 8.00 cm outside the surface of the paint layer.

Therefore, we have to take a Gaussian sphere of radius:

$r=8.00 cm + R = 8.00 + 6.50 = 14.5 cm = 0.145 m$

Gauss theorem this time becomes

$E\cdot 4\pi r^2 = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

And the charge included within the sphere is again the charge on the paint layer,

$q=-17.0\mu C=-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

Therefore, the electric field is

$E=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 r^2}=\frac{-17.0\cdot 10^{-6}}{4\pi(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.145)^2}=-7.27\cdot 10^7 N/C$

The highest occupiable floor of any building is in the Sears Tower in Chicago. The elevators of the central tower of the buildin

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

9727160J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of elevator rise = 436m

Force exerted = 22310N

Unknown:

Work done by the elevator lifting mechanism = ?

Solution:

The work done by a body is the force applied to move a body in a specific direction;

Work done = force x distance moved

In this case, the force and distance moved is provided already;

Work done = 22310 x 436 = 9727160J

In a few sentences, describe how the thermostat utilizes a bimetallic strip in order to turn a furnace on and off in one or two

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Explanation:

Bimetallic strips are used in thermostats for measuring and controlling temperature. The strip is connected to a switch and as the temperature changes, the strip flexes and opens or closes a contact. They are also used in ovens for measuring temperature. An electromechanical thermostat typically contains either a bi-metal coil or a metal strip. When the temperature changes, this coil or strip will move, causing a vial containing mercury to tip to one side. The mercury flows to one end of the vial, signaling that the heating or cooling needs to be turned on.
