The answer to the question is 21 km towards east.

CALCULATION:

Let us consider two vectors $\vec A \ and\ \vec B$

As per the question, $\vec A=8\ km\ towards\ east$

$\vec B=\ 13\ km\ towards\ east$

It is obvious that two vectors are parallel to each other. Hence, the angle between them is zero i.e $\theta\ = 0^0$

We are asked to calculate the resultant .

As per parallelogram law of vector addition, the magnitude of resultant will be-

$R=\sqrt{A^{2} +B^{2} +2ABcos\theta}$

$=\sqrt{8^2+13^2+2\times 8\times13 cos0}$

$=\sqrt{64+169+208}$ [∵ cos0 = 1]

$=\sqrt{441}\ km$

$=\ 21\ km$

The direction of the resultant will be also towards east as the two vectors are parallel to each other.

Hence, the vector addition of two vectors are 21 km towards east.

A particle traveling in a circular path of radius 300 m has an instantaneous velocity of 30 m/s and its velocity is increasing a

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

5 m/s2

Explanation:

The total acceleration of the circular motion is made of 2 components: centripetal acceleration and linear acceleration of 4 m/s2. They are perpendicular to each other.

The centripetal acceleration is the ratio of instant velocity squared and the radius of the circle

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} = \frac{30^2}{300} = \frac{900}{300} = 3 m/s^2$

So the magnitude of the total acceleration is

$a = \sqrt{a_c^2 + a_l^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5 m/s^2$

A real heat engine operates between temperatures TcTcT_c and ThThT_h. During a certain time, an amount QcQcQ_c of heat is releas

Nookie1986 [14]

The maximum amount of work performed is

$W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C$

Explanation:

The efficiency of a real heat engine is given by the equation:

$\eta = 1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}$ (1)

where

$T_C$ is the temperature of the cold reservoir

$T_H$ is the temperature of the hot reservoir

However, the efficiency of a real heat engine can be also written as:

$\eta = \frac{W_{max}}{Q_H}$

where

$W_{max}$ is the maximum work done

$Q_H$ is the heat absorbed from the hot reservoir

$Q_H$ can be written as

$Q_H=W_{max}+Q_C$

where

$Q_C$ is the heat released to the cold reservoir

So the previous equation can be also written as

$\eta=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q_C}$ (2)

By combining eq.(1) and (2) we get

$1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q}$

And re-arranging the equation and solving for $W_{max}$ , we find

$W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C$
