The thermal efficiency of an engine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}
where
W is the work done by the engine
Q is the heat absorbed by the engine to do the work

In this problem, the work done by the engine is W=200 J, while the heat exhausted is Q=600 J, so the efficiency of the machine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}= \frac{200 J}{600 J}=0.33 = 33 \%

Which has a total mass of 1612 kg. If she accelerates from rest to a speed of 12.87 m/s in 3.47 s, what is the minimum power req
blondinia [14]

Answer:

76969.29 W

Explanation:

Applying,

P = F×v............. Equation 1

Where P = Power, F = force, v = velocity

But,

F = ma.......... Equation 2

Where m = mass, a = acceleration

Also,

a = (v-u)/t......... Equation 3

Given: u = 0 m/s ( from rest), v = 12.87 m/s, t = 3.47 s

Substitute these values into equation 3

a = (12.87-0)/3.47

a = 3.71 m/s²

Also Given: m = 1612 kg

Substitute into equation 2

F = 1612(3.71)

F = 5980.52 N.

Finally,

Substitute into equation 1

P = 5980.52×12.87

P = 76969.29 W

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Explanation:

(a) The rays are diverging near the lens. They change the direction when they passed through the converging lens

(b) If the light rays don't bend they will move away from the optical (principal axis) as the other waves are moving.

(c) If we decrease the distance between lens and light source, most of the rays diverge and no ray converges on the screen even after passing through the lens. Here is a screenshot.
