Bess [88]

Answer:

C. 85%

Explanation:

A cylinder fitted with a piston exists in a high-pressure chamber (3 atm) with an initial volume of 1 L. If a sufficient quantity of a hydrocarbon material is combusted inside the cylinder to produce 1 kJ of energy, and if the volume of the chamber then increases to 1.5 L, what percent of the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat?

A. 15%

B. 30%

C. 85%

D. 100%

work done by the system will be

W=PdV

p=pressure

dV=change in volume

3tam will be changed to N/m^2

3*1.01*10^5

W=3.03*10^5*(1.5-1)

convert 0.5L to m^3

5*10^-4

W=3.03*10^5*5*10^-4

W=152J

therefore

to find the percentage used

152/1000*100

15%

100%-15%

85% uf the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat

You are on a train traveling east at speed of 18 m/s with respect to the ground. 1) If you walk east toward the front of the tra
dlinn [17]

Answer:

19.2 m/s

Explanation:

The train is moving at 18 m/s and you are walking in the same direction (east) so the speeds are added

18 + 1.2 = 19.2

If you were walking backwards (west) your velocity with respect to the ground would be

18 - 1.2 = 16.8

Light travels at a speed of close to 3 x 10^5 km/s in vacuum. Given that it takes light 8 min and 19 s to travel the distance fr
never [62]

Answer:

1497×10⁵ km

Explanation:

Speed of light in vacuum = 3×10⁵ km/s

Time taken by the light of the Sun to reach the Earth = 8 min and 19 s

Converting to seconds we get

8×60+19 = 499 seconds

Distance = Speed × Time

\text{Distance}=3\times 10^5\times 499\\\Rightarrow \text{Distance}=1497\times 10^5\ km

1 AU = 1497×10⁵ km

The Sun is 1497×10⁵ km from Earth
