A professional cyclist rides a bicycle that is 92 percent efficient. For every 100 joules of energy he exerts as input work on t

he pedals, how many joules of output work are used to move the bicycle?

Efficiency = Work Output / Work Input

92% = Work Output / 100

0.92 = Work Output / 100

Work Output = 0.92 * 100

Work Output = 92 joules.

A 2 L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 280 K to 700 K. What is the volume of the gas after it is heated?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

New volume, v2 = 0.8L

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Original Volume = 2L

Original Temperature = 280K

New Temperature = 700K

To find new volume V2, we would use Charles' law.

Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Charles is given by;

$VT = K$

$\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}$

$\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}$

Making V2 as the subject formula, we have;

$V_{2}= \frac{V1}{T1} * T_{2}$

$V_{2}= \frac{2}{700} * 280$

$V_{2}= 0.0029 * 280$

V2 = 0.8L

Therefore, the volume of the gas after it is heated is 0.8L.

Let v1, , vk be vectors, and suppose that a point mass of m1, , mk is located at the tip of each vector. The center of mass for

g100num [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Center of mass is give as

Xcm = (Σmi•xi) / M

Where i= 1,2,3,4.....

M = m1+m2+m3 +....

x is the position of the mass (x, y)

Now,

Given that,

u1 = (−1, 0, 2) (mass 3 kg),

m1 = 3kg and it position x1 = (-1,0,2)

u2 = (2, 1, −3) (mass 1 kg),

m2 = 1kg and it position x2 = (2,1,-3)

u3 = (0, 4, 3) (mass 2 kg),

m3 = 2kg and it position x3 = (0,4,3)

u4 = (5, 2, 0) (mass 5 kg)

m4 = 5kg and it position x4 = (5,2,0)

Now, applying center of mass formula

Xcm = (Σmi•xi) / M

Xcm = (m1•x1+m2•x2+m3•x3+m4•x4) / (m1+m2+m3+m4)

Xcm = [3(-1, 0, 2) +1(2, 1, -3)+2(0, 4, 3)+ 5(5, 2, 0)]/(3 + 1 + 2 + 5)

Xcm = [(-3, 0, 6)+(2, 1, -3)+(0, 8, 6)+(25, 10, 0)] / 11

Xcm = (-3+2+0+25, 0+1+8+10, 6-3+6+0) / 11

Xcm = (24, 19, 9) / 11

Xcm = (2.2, 1.7, 0.8) m

This is the required center of mass
