Answer: The answer is 1.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the pilot took 1/2 hour to complete 1/3rd of his trip. We are to calculate the time that he will take to complete his trip.

Time taken by the pilot to complete 1/3 rd of his trip = 1/2

Therefore, time taken by the pilot to complete his trip is given by

$t=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3=1.5.$

Thus, the pilot will take 1.5 hours to complete his trip.

One of the most efficient engines built so far has the following characteristics: combustion chamber temperature = 1900°C, exhau

suter [353]

Answer:

actual efficiency is 47.78 %

Carnot efficiency is 67.65 %

power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp

Explanation:

given data

temperature = 1900°C = 1900+ 273 K = 2173 K

exhaust temperature = 430°C = 430 + 273 K = 703 K

fuel = 7.0 × 10^9 cal

work = 1.4 × 10^10 J

to find out

actual efficiency and Carnot efficiency and power output of engine

solution

first we find actual efficiency that is = work / heat input

put the value and

input energy = 7.0 × 10^9 cal (4.184 J/1 cal) = 29.29 × 10^9 J

actual efficiency = 1.4 × 10^10 / ( 29.29 × 10^9 )

actual efficiency = 0.4778

actual efficiency is 47.78 %

and

Carnot efficiency is = 1 - ( 703 / 2173 )

so Carnot efficiency is = 0.67648

Carnot efficiency is 67.65 %

and

power output = work / time

power output = 1.4 × 10^10 / 3600 sec

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W

power output = 3.88 × 10^6 W / 746 hp

so power output is 5.20 × 10^3 hp

Answer:

Tangential

Explanation: This is a kind of force which act on a moving body in such a way that it is curved in the direction of the path of the body. This implies that when the velocity of the object is positive, the acceleration will be negative.
