Answer:

C. 85%

Explanation:

A cylinder fitted with a piston exists in a high-pressure chamber (3 atm) with an initial volume of 1 L. If a sufficient quantity of a hydrocarbon material is combusted inside the cylinder to produce 1 kJ of energy, and if the volume of the chamber then increases to 1.5 L, what percent of the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat?

A. 15%

B. 30%

C. 85%

D. 100%

work done by the system will be

W=PdV

p=pressure

dV=change in volume

3tam will be changed to N/m^2

3*1.01*10^5

W=3.03*10^5*(1.5-1)

convert 0.5L to m^3

5*10^-4

W=3.03*10^5*5*10^-4

W=152J

therefore

to find the percentage used

152/1000*100

15%

100%-15%

85% uf the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat

How long must a tow truck apply a force of 600 N to increase the speed of a 1,500 kg car at rest to 2 m/s?
slega [8]

The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force, F = 600 N</em>
  • <em>mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s</em>

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; <em>which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.</em>

F = ma

F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s

Thus, the time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a 60 m building and lands 100 m from the base of the building. How long is the bal
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The ball is in the air for 3.5 seconds

The initial horizontal component of velocity is 28.6 m/s

The vertical component of the final velocity is 34.3 m/s downward

The final velocity is 44.7 m/s in the direction 50.2° below the horizontal

Explanation:

A ball is thrown horizontally

That means the vertical component of the initial velocity u_{y}=0

The initial velocity is the horizontal component u_{x}

The ball is thrown from the top of a 60 m

That means the vertical displacement component y = 60 m

→ y = u_{y} t + \frac{1}{2} gt²

where g is the acceleration of gravity and t is the time

y = -60 m , g = -9.8 m/s² , u_{y}=0

Substitute these values in the rule

→ -60 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} (-9.8)t²

→ -60 = -4.9t²

Divide both sides by -4.9

→ 12.2449 = t²

Take √ for both sides

∴ t = 3.5 seconds

* <em>The ball is in the air for 3.5 seconds </em>

The initial velocity is the horizontal component u_{x}

The ball lands 100 meter from the base of the building

That means the horizontal displacement x = 100 m

→ x = u_{x} t

→ t = 3.5 s , x = 100 m

Substitute these values in the rule

→ 100 = u_{x} (3.5)

Divide both sides by 3.5

→ u_{x} = 28.57 m/s

<em>The initial horizontal component of velocity is 28.6 m/s</em>

The vertical component of the final velocity is v_{y}

→ v_{y} = u_{y} + gt

→ u_{y} = 0 , g = -9.8 m/s² , t = 3.5 s

Substitute these values in the rule

→ v_{y} = 0 + (-9.8)(3.5)

→ v_{y} = -34.3 m/s

<em>The vertical component of the final velocity is 34.3 m/s downward</em>

The final velocity v is the resultant vector of  v_{x} and v_{y}

→ Its magnetude is v=\sqrt{(v_{x})^{2}+(v_{y})^{2}}

→ Its direction tan^{-1}\frac{v_{y}}{v_{x}}

→ v_{y} = 28.6 , v_{y} = -34.3

Substitute this values in the rules above

→ v=\sqrt{(28.6)^{2}+(-34.3)^{2}}=44.66

→ Its direction tan^{-1}\frac{-34.3}{28.6}=-50.18

The negative sign means the direction is below the horizontal

<em>The final velocity is 44.7 m/s in the direction 50.2° below the horizontal</em>

Consider an experiment in which slow neutrons of momentum ¯hk are scattered by a diatomic molecule; suppose that the molecule is
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

When we have an object in periodic motion, the amplitude will be the maximum displacement from equilibrium. Take for example, when there’s a back and forth movement of a pendulum through its equilibrium point (straight down), then swings to a highest distance away from the center. This distance will be represented as the amplitude, A. The full range of the pendulum has a magnitude of 2A.

position = amplitude x sine function(angular frequency x time + phase difference)

x = A sin(ωt + ϕ)

x = displacement (m)

A = amplitude (m)

ω = angular frequency (radians/s)

t = time (s)

ϕ = phase shift (radians)

Kindly check the attached image below to see the step by step explanation to the question above.
