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 \%

inysia [295]

Answer:Impossible to answer without knowing their actual initial speeds

Explanation:

Given

Ball A launched at angle of 20^{\circ}

Ball B is launched at angle of 75^{\circ}

At the highest  point Ball vertical velocity will be and there will be only horizontal velocity i.e. v_acos20 and v_bcos75

where v_a and v_b is the velocity of A & B

thus to find which one is greater we need to know their initial velocity.

It is impossible to know which one have higher velocity at highest point.
