Arocket with an initial velocity of 20 m/s another engine that gives it an acceleration of 4 m/s ^ 2 over 10 secondsHow far did
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

50m

   

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 20m/s

Acceleration  = 4m/s²

Time  = 10s

Unknown:

Distance traveled by the rocket  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem use the expression below;

   

     v² = u² + 2as

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance

  final velocity = 0

 Insert the parameters and solve;

  0²  = 20² + 2 x 4 x s

   -400  = 8s

         s  = 50m

   Disregard the negative sign because distance cannot be negative.

A Carnot engine's operating temperatures are 240 ∘C and 20 ∘C. The engine's power output is 910 W . Part A Calculate the rate of
scoray [572]

Answer:1200

Explanation:

Given data

Upper Temprature\left ( T_H\right )=240^{\circ}\approx 513

Lower Temprature \left ( T_L\right )=20^{\circ}\approx 293

Engine power ouput\left ( W\right )=910 W

Efficiency of carnot cycle is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

\eta =\frac{W_s}{Q_s}

1-\frac{293}{513}=\frac{910}{Q_s}

Q_s=2121.954 W

Q_r=1211.954 W

rounding off to two significant figures

Q_r=1200 W

Some machines do not multiply the force that is applied to them
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Machine Efficiency

Explanation:

Efficiency is the percent of work put into a machine by the user (input work) that becomes work done by the machine (output work). The output work is always less than the input work because some of the input work is used to overcome friction. Therefore, efficiency is always less than 100 percent

Three long, straight wires are carrying currents that have the same magnitude. In C the current is opposite to that in A and B.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

(b) B

Explanation:

The direction of force on a current carrying wire in a magnetic field can be found using the right hand rule, which states that-"stretch the thumb in the direction of the current, and point the fingers in the direction of magnetic field. The direction of palm will then give the direction of force on the wire

On wire B the forces due to A and C act in the same direction and so strengthen each other. they get added up because the forces act in the same direction.

on wires A and C the forces (due to B and C and A and B

respectively) act in opposite directions and therefore tend to cancel out.
