The purpose of a gasoline car engine is to convert gasoline into motion
so that your car can move. Currently the easiest way to create motion
from gasoline is to burn the gasoline inside an engine.
Therefore, a car engine is an internal combustion engine -- combustion takes place internally.
There is such a thing as an external combustion engine. A steam engine
in old-fashioned trains and steam boats is the best example of an
external combustion engine. The fuel (coal, wood, oil, whatever) in a
steam engine burns outside the engine to create steam, and the steam
creates motion inside the engine. Internal combustion is a lot more
efficient (takes less fuel per mile) than external combustion, plus an
internal combustion engine is a lot smaller than an equivalent external
combustion engine. This explains why we don't see any cars using steam
engines.
To understand the basic idea behind how a reciprocating internal
combustion engine works, it is helpful to have a good mental image of
how "internal combustion" works.
One good example is an old Revolutionary War cannon. You have probably
seen these in movies, where the soldiers load the cannon with gun powder
and a cannon ball and light it. That is internal combustion, but it is
hard to imagine that having anything to do with engines.
A potato cannon uses the basic principle behind any reciprocating
internal combustion engine: If you put a tiny amount of high-energy fuel
(like gasoline) in a small, enclosed space and ignite it, an incredible
amount of energy is released in the form of expanding gas. You can use
that energy to propel a potato 500 feet. In this case, the energy is
translated into potato motion. You can also use it for more interesting
purposes. For example, if you can create a cycle that allows you to set
off explosions like this hundreds of times per minute, and if you can
harness that energy in a useful way, what you have is the core of a car
engine! </span>
Velocity of an object is its rate of change of the object's position per interval of time. Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it consists of a magnitude and a direction. Magnitude is represented by the speed and the direction is represented by the angle. To determine the velocity components, we use trigonometric functions to determine the angle of the components. For the north component we, use the sine function while, for the west component, we use the cosine function. We calculate as follows:
north velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (sin 54°) = 16.4 m/s
<span>west velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (cos 54°) = 3.49 m/s</span>

Answer:
Explanation:
one end of tank will be circular in shape . Area of circle A
= π r² , r is radius of the circle
= 3.14 x 3²
A = 28.26 ft³
To calculate force on the circular area , we first find pressure at the center of the circle which is at depth equal to r
pressure at the center = h d g ' here h = depth = r , d = density of milk
pressure = 3 x 64.6 x 32 poundal / ft²
= 6201.6 poundal / ft²
total force on circular face = pressure at the center x area of circle
= 6201.6 x 28.26
= 175257.21 poundal .
Vi = 15 m/s
t = 2 s
a = 9.8 m/s^2
y = ?
The kinematic equation that has all of our variables is d = Vi*t + 0.5*a*t^2
y = 15*2 + 0.5*9.8*2^2 = 49.6 m
