The heat is unusable  and  is being lost  to the surrounding -- assuming that the engine has reached operating temperature   and is not increasing or decreasing in temperature.

Answer is: The heat is unusable and lost to the surroundings.

Gasoline is a mixture  of many different hydrocarbons: alkanes (paraffins), cycloalkanes  and alkenes (olefins).

Balanced chemical reaction of gasoline combustion:

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O + energy.

One part of energy produced in combustion of gasoline is used for car ungine (kinetic energy) and other part of that energy (in form of heat) is lost to the surronding and engine does not use it.

A lake has been infected by some type of new algae that is unknown. Every single day the amount of surface area that the algae t
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

It takes 86 days take to cover half of the lake

Explanation:

In the day #1, the amount of the algae is X,

In the day #2 is 2X

In the day #3 is 2*2*X = X*2²

...

In the day #n the amount of the algae is X*2^(n-1)

Assuming X = 1m³. In the day 87, the area infected was:

1m³*2^(87-1)

7.74x10²⁵m³ is the total area of the lake

the half of this amount is 3.87x10²⁵m³

The time transcurred is:

3.87x10²⁵m³ = 1m³*2^(n-1)

Multiplying for 5 in each side:

ln (3.87x10²⁵) = ln (2^(n-1))

58.9175 = n-1 * 0.6931

85 = n-1

86 = n

<h3>It takes 86 days take to cover half of the lake</h3>
