What energy transformations do you think need to occur in order to operate a steam locomotive?

The steam locomotive uses boiling water to make a steam. This energy transformation undergoes from a heat energy. The steam was then used to "pipe" inside the cylinder which is responsible for the motion of pistons moving within each other. They alternating movement of the piston is now used to drive the steam engine.

Superman attempts to drink water through a very long vertical straw. With his great strength, he achieves maximum possible sucti
Stells [14]

Answer:

10.32874 m

Explanation:

P_a = Atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height of water

\rho = Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

If the walls of the tube do not collapse that means that maximum pressure inside will be the atmospheric pressure

Atmospheric pressure is given by

P_a=\rho gh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{P_a}{\rho g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{101325}{1000\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=10.32874\ m

The maximum height to which Superman can lift the water is 10.32874 m

On the Moon there is no atmosphere so no atmospheric pressure which means when the straw is placed in water water will not rise in the tube.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

(a) 2.85 m

(b) 16.5 m

(c) 21.7 m

(d) 22.7 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ₓ = 19 cos 71° m/s

v₀ᵧ = 19 sin 71° m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

aᵧ = -9.8 m/s²

(a) Find Δy when t = 3.5 s.

Δy = v₀ᵧ t + ½ aᵧ t²

Δy = (19 sin 71° m/s) (3.5 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (3.5 s)²

Δy = 2.85 m

(b) Find Δy when vᵧ = 0 m/s.

vᵧ² = v₀ᵧ² + 2 aᵧ Δy

(0 m/s)² = (19 sin 71° m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 16.5 m

(c) Find Δx when t = 3.5 s.

Δx = v₀ₓ t + ½ aₓ t²

Δx = (19 cos 71° m/s) (3.5 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (3.5 s)²

Δx = 21.7 m

(d) Find Δx when Δy = 0 m.

First, find t when Δy = 0 m.

Δy = v₀ᵧ t + ½ aᵧ t²

(0 m) = (19 sin 71° m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

0 = t (18.0 − 4.9 t)

t = 3.67

Next, find Δx when t = 3.67 s.

Δx = v₀ₓ t + ½ aₓ t²

Δx = (19 cos 71° m/s) (3.67 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (3.67 s)²

Δx = 22.7 m
