Answer:

The Energy transferred to the engine by burning gasoline = <u>216.67 KJ</u>

Explanation:

The parameters given are:

The efficiency of the car engine, E = 30% = 0.3

Mass, m = 1300 kg

Initial velocity, u = 0, since the car is from rest

The final velocity, v = 10 m/s

Since the car was moving, we calculate its kinetic energy.

kinetic energy = ((1/2) (m) (v^2)

((1/2) (1300 kg) (10 m/s^2)

= 65,000 j

The Energy, Q transferred to the engine by burning gasoline in this case

= potential energy / The efficiency of the car engine, E

Q = 65,000 j / 0.3

= 216,666.66 J

Converting Joule to kilojoule

where 1KJ = 1000j

216,666.66 J = <u>216.67 KJ</u>

<span>Hydrocarbons are molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen.</span> Due to carbon's unique bonding patterns, hydrocarbons can have single, double, or triple bonds between the carbon atoms. The names of hydrocarbons with single bonds end in "-ane," those with double bonds end in "-ene," and those with triple bonds end in "-yne". The bonding of hydrocarbons allows them to form rings or chains.

12345 [234]

Answer:

6.49 x 10^-8 N

Explanation:

formula is

F= G * ((m1 * m2)/r^2)

F = 6.67x10^-11 * ((6.8*6.8/.218)

F = 6.49 x 10^-8 Newtons
