How fast must a cyclist climb a 6.0º hill to maintain a power output of 0.25 hp? Neglect work done by friction, and assume the m

ass of cyclist plus bicycle is 68 kg.

Answer:  2.7m/s

Explanation:

cyclist fight only against the component of weight along the road (no friction) , that is:

fx =Wsin6° = mgsin6°=68*9.8*sin6°=69.6N downward

so the force that moves the bike over the hill will be equal to fx but upward

Now we now that the power P = 0.25hp= 186.5W  is:

P=f*v  so v = P/fx  = 186.5/69.6 = 2.7m/s

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

Is there a definite end to our atmosphere?
Irina18 [472]
There is no definite end to earths atmosphere, but technically the border between the outer space and earth gets thinner as you move up from the earths surface. The Karman line is the closest definition there is which describes the end of the earth's atmosphere, it is 100 km above earth's sea level at approximately 1.56 % of total earth's radius. This describes the boundary between the outer space and the atmosphere.
