If an automobile had a 100%-efficient engine, transferring all of the fuel's energy to work, would the engine be warm to your to

uch? Would its exhaust heat the surrounding air? Would it make any noise? Would it vibrate? Would any of its fuel go unused? Discuss.

Answer:

The engine would be warm to touch, and the exhaust gases would be at ambient temperature. The engine would not vibrate nor make any noise. None of the fuel entering the engine would go unused.

Explanation:

In this ideal engine, none of these events would happen due to the nature of the efficiency.

We can define efficiency as the ratio between the used energy and the potential generable energy in the fuel.

n=W, total/(E, available).

However, in real engines the energy generated in the combustion of the fuel transforms into heat (which heates the exhost gases, and the engine therefore transfering some of this heat to the environment). Also, there are some mechanical energy loss due to vibrations and sound, which are also energy that comes from the fuel combustion.

I'm walking 1.6m/s to 7-11 and it started to rain so I sped up to 2.7m/s in 1.2
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = \frac{v_f-v_0}{t} which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity in the numerator, and the change in time in the denominator.  For us:

a=\frac{2.7-1.6}{1.2} so

a = .92 m/s/s (NOT negative because you're speeding up)

A roller coaster car is going over the top of a 18-m-radius circular rise. at the top of the hill, the passengers "feel light,"
Mashutka [201]

The solution for this problem is:

If they feel 50% of their weight that means that the centripetal force is also 50% of their weight 1g - 0.5g = 0.5g 


Then 0.5* 9.8m/s² * 18m = 88.2 would be v² 

Then get the square root, the answer would be:
and v = 9.391 m/s is the answer.
