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

A 0.366 kg metal cylinder is placed inside the top of a plastic tube, the lower end of which is sealed off by an adjustable plun
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a = 32.6 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that pressure between the cylinder and plunger is increased by 1.59 times

So this will make a net force upwards on the cylinder which is given as

F = \Delta P A

now we will have

\Delta P = P_2 - P_1

Here initial pressure is given as

P_1 = P_o + \frac{mg}{A}

now new pressure is given as

P_2 = 1.59 P_1

so we have force on the cylinder given as

F = P_2A - mg - P_oA

F = 1.59(P_0 + \frac{mg}{A})A - (mg + P_0A)

F = 0.59(1.01 \times 10^5 \times \pi(7.24 \times 10^{-3})^2  + 0.366(9.81))

F = 11.93 N

now the acceleration is given as

F = ma

11.93 = 0.366 a

a = 32.6 m/s^2

In an experiment, the 1 kg cart collides with a 3 kg cart but doesn’t stick to it. Instead, the 3 kg cart gets knock forward by
notka56 [123]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m_1=1\ kg

Mass of the cart 2, m_2=3\ kg            

Final speed of cart 2, v_2=0.3\ m/s

Final speed of cart 1 is 0 as it comes to rest.

Let us assume that the initial velocity of the cart 2 is 0. So using the conservation of linear momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\\\m_1u_1+0=0+m_2v_2\\\\m_1u_1=m_2v_2\\\\u_1=\dfrac{m_2v_2}{m_1}\\\\u_1=\dfrac{3\times 0.3}{1}\\\\u_1=0.9\ m/s

So, the initial velocity of the 1.0-kg cart is 0.9 m/s.

Q.4. What is the kinetic energy of a 10 kg car that is moving 4 m/s?
kodGreya [7K]

An object of mass $10 \mathrm{~kg}$ is moving with a uniform velocity of $4 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$. The kinetic energy possessed by the object is $80 \mathrm{~J}$.

Given:

Mass of an object $=10 \mathrm{~kg}$

Velocity $=4 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$

Kinetic Energy $=1 / 2 \times$ Mass of Object $\times(\text { Velocity })^{2}$

$\Rightarrow$ Kinetic Energy $=1 / 2 \times 10 \times 4 \times 4$

$\Rightarrow$Kinetic Energy $=\underline{80 \mathbf{J}}$

What is Kinetic Energy?

  • In physics, an object's kinetic energy is the energy it has as a result of its motion.
  • It is defined as the amount of work required to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to a certain velocity.
  • The body retains its kinetic energy after gaining it during acceleration until its speed changes.
  • Kinetic energy is present in a speeding bullet, a walking human, and electromagnetic radiation such as light. The energy associated with the continual, random bouncing of atoms or molecules is another type of kinetic energy.

A photographer uses his camera, whose lens has a 50 mm focal length, to focus on an object 2.5 m away. He then wants to take a p
Temka [501]

Answer:

0.004 m away from the film

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 50 mm

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{0.05}-\frac{1}{2.5}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{98}{5} \\\Rightarrow v=\frac{5}{98}=0.051\ m

The image distance is 0.051 m

When u = 50 cm

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{0.05}-\frac{1}{0.5}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=18\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{1}{18}=0.055\ m

The image distance is 0.055 m

The lens has moved 0.055-0.051 = 0.004 m away from the film
